    AMD or Intel upgrade question

    This is from an AMD fan boy, you will probably get a little better performance with an I5 than the AMD fx 8350 but not much. I prefer AMD because it usually a little cheaper than Intel , for comparable performance...........it always depends on what you want to do with it ;)

    Noob Question about SLI

    My question is, with SLI do you need matching cards. I have a MSI 4gig gtx 680 card and was wondering if I could match it with a 2 gig card. I'm more familiar with AMD crossfire than SLI

    Building a new rig

    I personally have an AMD 8150 and noticed that the 990fx chip-set works better with just 2 sticks of memory in the mother board. If you really need 16 gig of memory and like g.skill go with this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231528
