    Game addiction

    Deep inside, we're all gamers and nothing will change that. Not responsibilities, not children, not a damn thing. We will continue to game. Thankfully for me, it's mostly MMOs lol. Sure I make small micro-transactions here and there but nothing more than 50 a month.

    Noctua NH-D14 CPU Cooler

    Instead of doing what the previous poster did, wouldn't be easier to just lay it on it's side? Would it have any detrimental affects to overflow laying it down? Also, do you think it's possible to get an i5-2500k up to 4.4Ghz with this on? Has anyone attempted this with an i5-D14 combo?

    From china forum.. kepler is Fast....!!

    So basically this isn't legit? Get it? Cause it's from that website? Ahah, okay no. But seriously, what are the real origins of this table? As everyone else has mentioned, the numbers look pretty; beating the 7970 in just about every bench if not all. I'd like to actually see a bench running...

    Will you buy Ivy Bridge?

    I'm currently working with a E5400 Dual core at 2.7. I've been looking to upgrade for ages and was sold on the Sandy Bridge 2600k; was hoping to reach 4.5 on air! XD I was going to pair it with either a 6970 or 6990 on an ASUS Z68 board. What kind of advantages/gains would I see going with an...

    Online games besides BF3

    Don't do it! Unless you live in Germany, they have very high player base. It's a nice game and only 25 bucks, worth a shot if you're into racing games. But man it gets extremely difficult at the Red tier difficulty (second to last difficulty). Some tracks you'll miss the gold by tenths of a...

    7970 - Overkill for 1600x900 resolution?

    Been crunching numbers for a bit now and my build puts me at $1492 before shipping. Not sure if NewEgg adds tax as well. But even then there's still about 600ish hundred bucks to go. I can devote that to a new table and monitor set up. Now the question is, which monitor? Lol. I assume there's a...

    7970 - Overkill for 1600x900 resolution?

    A wall mount might be too far away from me I think. I think I might be able to make do with a more simplified table instead of following the design I currently have. Something along the lines of this:

    7970 - Overkill for 1600x900 resolution?

    So I've read all the replies and the main gist of it is that it's technically not overkill, I just won't be able to use it at full capacity at this resolution? If that is correct, then that's fine with me. I plan on keeping this machine for at least three years or so; perhaps I can get a new...

    7970s going to be in stock more in the next few weeks?

    That's weird. If you go to the item's page, it still displays Out of Stock but if you just type in "7970" to the search bar and scroll to the Sapphire, it displays that it's available. I didn't even get the Auto Notify email, goddamnit ><

    7970 - Overkill for 1600x900 resolution?

    So yeah, I'm currently on a 20inch LCD monitor and usually play MMOs at full screen 1600x900. I'm going to be building a new machine couple months down the line and I was wondering if it'd be overkill running a 7970? This is with a 2600k OC'd to 4.2 on an Asus Z68 board, not sure if that matters...

    7970s going to be in stock more in the next few weeks?

    I've been checking on a daily basis since the 13th for the Sapphire and it's been Out of Stock the entire time on NewEgg. Getting relentless on the refreshing lol ><
