    new build 3770k vs 4770k

    Not sure how your personal 'economy' is going but it would be prudent of you to take these guys' advice, spend as little as possible, if MC can save you $$$ you are going to blow otherwise, then yes, it's the best place. However, you can save $$$ by just buying a good sized SSD, even @SATA 2...

    Anyone find a good 3770k S-spec or batch number?

    I remember the Q6600 had a few great S-spec lots - could do 3.2 easily. Am wondering if any 3770k owners have noticed any good S-spec or batch numbers? or is it just LOTD with all Ivies? I got any Ivy 3770k for a build I have put together for my step-son, A Costa Rica assembled chip, first one...

    Help with new build.

    It does sound power related - 8 pin aux power ok? Tried it with just the CPU installed/connected? I remember similar things happening to me and it was usually something minor i had overlooked - the other day I was in a rush and tried putting a PCI-e 8 pin plug into the 8 pin aux power, wouldn't...

    Vram Question On Tri-Sli 780 on 7680x1440 Resolutions?

    Firstly, kudos for playing @nearly 8K res, must be awesome when it runs well!!! Now that you have the choice, why not wait a bit longer, 6GB 780s :rolleyes::rolleyes:are the natural progression and 'could' be out in a few months, or just wait for, wat is it, Maxwell??...however, NV might decide...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 Video Card Review @ [H]

    690 - but I have to qualify that - for highest settings etc another 690 to make quadSLI, when working should give the best performance, however it's more GPUs, more of that random instability. I love my 690 but I have to agree with Sycraft that regardless of the improvement of SLI in recent...

    GTX 690 FS because I bought a Titan..

    If there are any Australians from Melbourne interested, I have a well looked after Palit GTX 690 for sale. The box, manual and receipt are all included - the card is about 9 months old. I don't overclock my vidcards, stock 690 in MGPU mode is fast enough. Anyway, if anyone from Aus is...

    MSI Z77A-GD65 Gaming LGA 1155 Motherboard Review @ [H]

    Nice review - as per usual, wd!!! Had to look twice, the board is very ROG looking at a quick glance - red and black looks very good, no matter who uses it. Not surprised the board was a good 'gamer' in b/marks. MSI are very good @wringing every bit out of h/ware, we have seen them do this...

    Radeon HD 7990 versus GeForce GTX TITAN Review @ [H]

    One thing you should keep in mind is that people who can afford a Titan, or 2, more than likely are after the best gaming experience possible, brands mean nothing when it comes to loyalty(when is a brand loyal to us consumers?) and are likely to have tried ATI/AMD Crossfire but for various...

    Yes, the price is a bit crazy....however, since the punt paid for mine, I'm happy and it's better than the crashes and shit, I was getting with the 690...25x16 is enuff res for me and the Titan does it easy..BTW, nice review v interesting data..
