My current mobo is a Sabretooth from the last generation and while there wasn't any OC software out of the box there was something you could download from the Asus website and also Intel has some OC software that worked with it as well. The gimmics that come with the mobo add to assembly time...

I've got the LG 34 inch curved and its nice. The Asus has better specs in that my LG doesn't have Nsynch but I seem to game just fine on it and the witcher 3, skyrim and other games are great experiences. I wouldn't want that weird skin and color on my desk-sometimes conservative is better.

Lot of hot air in this thread but oh well. I have an AMD card-at the time it was the best deal for me and I am not hankering for a faster one now anyway. However, if I were in the market for a new card I wouldn't get one without reading the review on this site. I trust Kyle and Brent and if...

This sounds like an interesting card and I like the liquid cooling option. My case runs under my desk and I hate screaming video cards and CPUs.........what I don't like is the 700 video card and 300 cooling solution to run it.....Fury X just doesn't appeal to me, I guess what I want is a...

Nice article and it has me wondering.......... Currently I have a H100i and honestly the software never gets used. I have a 290X so running it a bit faster with my rig would warrent a water cooled solution, and I am guessing this is where this product would come in. So what GPU water...

Nice review. I just did a system with a Corsair C70 Vengeance case but this case would have worked for me. Knowing which cases will work with the self contained water cooled systems is important.

Steve does a nice job with the review, work him some more.

Thanks for the review Steve. Right now our family uses the Apple TV gizmo for Netflix mainly as we don't do other services, but that device might go beside the apple tv under the flatscreen. The price of the thing means its hard to screw up :)

I've got an nvidia card and so Rage runs pretty well for me. I've had fun playing it so far and while the low quality textures are disappointing they don't ruin the game play for me. The odd thing is I normally just buy ID games to see the cool graphics to see what all my machine is capable of...

Thanks for the review! These sound reviews are a nice part of the Hard site.

I'm not gonna carry over the power supply from the old box to my new build and I guess I wasn't clear, I was intending to say if my old system dies when the kids have it, I'd buy them a complete system from Best Buy, not the power supply.

Thought about that. I could do a 1366 system for roughly the same amount but I wouldn't go there unless I needed hex core and I really don't. Thinking I might need to wait on the Z version of the 1066 chipset but that is debatable. What I'd like to do is take my current system, wipe it...

I have a 500 or 600 W power supply in my current rig, which is a P35 Gigabyte motherboard and using the stock cooler. The fan I got to OC it was really top heavy and tall and I didn't really like how it seemed to pull at the motherboard when I stuck it in the case 3 years ago so I took it off...

Bummer! Well I've held out for 3 years, will keep another few months heh. Tempted to get a new video card now though, the 280 in the Q6600 system is starting to look a bit sluggish compared to the new stuff, and I suppose I can carry that vid card to the new system.

I'm building a new system to replace my Q6600 system and will not be carrying over anything from the old system except keyboard, mouse and monitor. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Gaming and web browsing. 2) What's your budget? Are tax and...
