    Suggest a new game like this...

    Starcraft 2 is awesome. Havent been an RTS fan since the old C&C days but this game rocks. Just finished the single player campaign on hard mode. Best RTS ive played since Warcraft 3 TFT

    Bulldozer Clocks leaked

    Ordinary people wont be.. but [H]ard people will be :) but my guess is that for starters BD wont hit 5ghz on air, and the deficit will be more than 10%. Just a hunch.

    Bulldozer Clocks leaked

    Except anyone who buys a 2600k is obviously planning on OCing way past the standard Turbo Boost provided, and seeing as alot of 2600ks hit 5ghz also, SB retains its theoretical 10% IPC lead in your scenario. Plus there's no guarantee BD will OC past or even reach 4.5ghz yet, and you are pretty...

    Anandtech 3 way SLI vs 3 Way CF

    An interesting read, thanks for digging that up vengence. Like you said, the difference isn't big but there's definitely a pattern there.

    Anandtech 3 way SLI vs 3 Way CF

    That's the first i've ever heard about CAS affecting minimum frame rates. Hopefully you can find that article, i'm interested to hear more about it.

    Anandtech 3 way SLI vs 3 Way CF

    Lol yeah it's just ridiculous to think that anyone considering spending $1000 on a Tri SLI / Xfire enthusiast rig is going to leave their CPU at stock clocks, especially 3.3ghz. Uh yeah duhhhh coz your CPU limited! Lol

    Help with a RAID0 set-up

    Strange how AS SSD shows the capacity as 237GB in your RAID 0 setup. AS SSD shows the combined capacity of both drives with my RAID 0 setup

    Is there ANY good reason to upgrade out of my Geforce 295 GTX?

    If you can still play the games you like at settings you enjoy then there is no need to upgrade just because your card is x generations old. That being said the 295GTX is a power hungry beast @ almost 300w TDP iirc. Upgrading to a 6950 and unlocking it to a 6970 would cut your power consumption...

    Made a HUGE mistake...

    I broke off a cap/resistor whatever it is, that size on my old x1900xt as soon as i bought it, trying to install a AC Acceleron heatsink fan. It worked flawlessly for years, even overclocked nicely (mightve overclocked better if i didnt damage it but we'll never know), up until i sold my old...

    More news about IVY

    Wow, we already know more about Ivy Bridge than we do about Bulldozer :P I kid i kid, but seriously AMD, throw us a freakin bone here. On topic 10-20% improvement over SB sounds about the same leap from C2Q to i7 or i7 to SB.

    Wait for Crucial C400 or buy a C300?

    Yep, ill probably wait to see some benchmarks from reputable sites before making my decision. Not having TRIM won't bother me as im already using a RAID 0 setup and my SSDs dont even have garbage collection so my performance does go to shit after a few months, meaning i have to do a backup...

    Wait for Crucial C400 or buy a C300?

    Im in a similar situation, except im considering either dual 64gb's or one 128gb c400. Just waiting to see how well they scale in raid 0, and how said scaling equates to real world performance before i decide to give up trim or not.

    Wait for Crucial C400 or buy a C300?

    It seems like were putting 4k random performance up on a pedestal as the be all end all of everyday SSD performance, much like we did with CPU clock speed in the past. With all the millions of dollars Crucial, Intel, Marvell etc invest in R & D do people really think that they're going to take a...
