    Will a 4GB GPU Make a Difference for Video Capturing Games

    Thanks. That's perfect because I have 2 256 gb Samsung 830s in Raid 0. So I'll stick with the 2gb Galaxy OC gc or MSI Lightning.

    Will a 4GB GPU Make a Difference for Video Capturing Games

    I'm going to be capturing video of games for my website using my new monster build that is complete minus the video card. I was wondering if going with a 4GB card would make a difference when capturing. I was going to get the Galaxy OC GC GTX 680 or MSI Lightning, which are two of the fastest...

    Best Sub $300 Mobo for Ivy Br. Gaming Build

    To update the thread: I ordered the Asus Maximus V Formula with no regrets. I'll be building the unit once my H100 liquid cooler arrives. I'll start out with the HD4000 graphics until my ASUS GTX670 DC2 Top arrives, which could be about a week. I was able to find a local shop that ordered...

    What Drives For New Build, WD Red and RAID 0 Questions

    I decided to go with a single Hitachi Deskstar 7K3000 2TB as a start for my website's work. It's very fast and has a solid reliability reputation. I have two 1TB drives that I can use to backup my work on my current computer--one a WD Black and one a WD Green. In the near future I will order a...

    ASUS GeForce GTX 680 DirectCU II TOP GPU Review @ [H]

    That's exactly what I thought, but wanted to get some other opinions so I asked the initial question.

    ASUS GeForce GTX 680 DirectCU II TOP GPU Review @ [H]

    Do you guys think the 680 DC2 TOP's $90-$100 extra over the 670 DC2 TOP is worth it?

    Samsung, Crucial, or Corsair?

    I would say go with Samsung. The 830 has arguably the best reliability reputation out of any drive right now, and is a tad bit faster. I would also throw the Intel 520 into the mix for sure, which is roughly the same price as those drives now and possibly the fastest, and of course has top-notch...

    Best Sub $300 Mobo for Ivy Br. Gaming Build

    I was actually thinking about getting the NH-D14 for my 3770k, but the shear size is turning me off. Can you remove one of the fans or heatsinks to make it smaller? I've been running the Noctua in my current E8600 for years. The Max V Formula is really tempting me. I guess I really don't have a...

    Best Sub $300 Mobo for Ivy Br. Gaming Build

    I'm not interested in a micro ATX board at all. I bought a massive Corsair Obsidian 800D so I'd have maximum room for expansion and so I want a motherboard that is fully featured as well. I figured the Maximus V Forumula is simply a much better version of the Gene, so it must be pretty awesome...

    Best Sub $300 Mobo for Ivy Br. Gaming Build

    Here are the differences between Maximus V Forumula and P8Z77 Deluxe that actually mean something to me. Any other differences are minor or I don't really care about. The Deluxe's SATA and LAN offerings appeal to me more. However, the Maximus has the better onboard audio and probably...

    What Drives For New Build, WD Red and RAID 0 Questions

    I'm not going to start out with enough drives for a mirrored RAID setup, so I wasn't exactly considering them yet. I plan on buying more of the same drives in the future of whatever model I decide on now. And then I could set up a mirrored RAID. But 2 drives are the most I can go with right now...

    Best Sub $300 Mobo for Ivy Br. Gaming Build

    I have the Corsair Obsidian 800D full tower case ATX. Will the Maximus Gene or Maximus Formula (extended ATX) fit in my case?

    Best Sub $300 Mobo for Ivy Br. Gaming Build

    Thanks for the reply. The main intensive use for this build is gaming, FPS, RTS, every kind of game other than Facebook games. I will also be using it to record video captures of games that I'm playing, then editing and transcoding them for putting on my website (www.rapidfiregames.com). I also...

    What Drives For New Build, WD Red and RAID 0 Questions

    With the release of the WD Red HDs I've been planning on using 2 2TB drives in my new build, with plenty room for expansion. I'll be filling up the Reds with video captures of video games for my website, as well as some other videos I rip, such as historical documentaries and more. The...
