    AMD APU vs 8800gt

    ive been looking around but cant find anything/ quick question: will the intergrated gpu in the llano apu (3850) play games better than the 8800 GT 512 mb? according to my research, the 8800 holds more than 100 cuda cores, which is basically the same as stream processors. in the APU, it...

    AMD APU A8 3780 OR I3 2120

    I finally purchased the 3850 to compensate for the future, like you guys said, get 3000, the apu has stroger igpu than the 3000. Even though ion and atom chips are dirt cheap, it wont last as long: the more you spend the higher quality, the longer it will last :) thats why i decided to go for a...

    AMD APU A8 3780 OR I3 2120

    I just need it to watch hd videos, im getting an mATX mobo. I chose not to go with the small form factor u suggested cuz of price to performance to longevity ratio. In all honesty, the comp im building is 400$, using the apu, 8GB ram and 500gb hdd. Mobo is a55 for 60$ and psu is free from...

    AMD APU A8 3780 OR I3 2120

    Sorry, the time frame i set isnt reasonable xD 6 years should be good. What is an IPC? I dont think ill mind as the system is only for word processing and emails. The graphics preformance will be compensated with the beast of an igpu in the 3870k, ill be getting the 3850 just to save the extra...

    im building a desktop for standard email/word proccessing and video watching, so i wont be needing a gpu or beefy stuff. should i get the apu or the i3? the i3 and mobo combo is 20$ more but will be a little tight on the budget. the only thing holding me back is the heatsink fan for the...

    Dual channel, different ram slots, different speed.

    Either im bad at googling or theres no info online. Quick question! Is it possible to run ram at different speeds in the second channel? For example 4GB 1600 -a1 2GB 2000 -b1 4GB 1600 -a2 2GB 2000 -b2 Or do they all have to run at 1600?
