    Out of loop for waayyy long. Do people even OC [H] any longer?

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who misses the good old days. Now I just overclock for the boost in gaming performance, and it just isn't as fulfilling as it used to be.

    Battlefield 4 Beta Performance Preview @ [H]

    I'm not sure if anyone brought this up (I only read through page 3 to be honest - I lost interest once we got into the "I'm a Win7 fanboi and I ain't never upgradin!" section), but the game seems to have a massive memory leak. I noticed seemingly random application crashes after installing the...

    Coming Back from the Dark Side (AMD -> Intel Migration)

    Agreed on the RAM, the GSKILL I posted has the same timing and voltage as the Team, just a bit more $$. I might pick that Team up. What if you had to choose between a Haswell i5 (4670K) and an Ivy Bridge i7 (3770K)? Would you still go Haswell? The 4770k + MB is just a bit out of what I want...

    Coming Back from the Dark Side (AMD -> Intel Migration)

    Correct, that's why I said it's only a $35 difference between Ivy Bridge and Haswell above.

    Coming Back from the Dark Side (AMD -> Intel Migration)

    Sory you've had back luck with them, but I've been using ASUS boards for ~15 years and the only problem I ever had was that I was pumping so much voltage through my old P4 to keep it stable at 4GHz that I blew a cap off the board. ASUS accepted the RMA and replaced it with no questions asked...

    Coming Back from the Dark Side (AMD -> Intel Migration)

    Some on another forum have suggested that I go for an i7, since a lot of newer games are starting to be heavily multithreaded. Thoughts? If I go i7 should I just go Haswell since I'm blowing up my budget anyways. (money didn't matter to a certain point, that couldn't really be busted on an i5...

    Fixed that too. I fail at the internet today. Hard.

    They were indeed broken, but I have fixed them. Sorry about that!

    Coming Back from the Dark Side (AMD -> Intel Migration)

    I'm fed up with my AMD rig. I've seriously spend hundreds of hours troubleshooting it over the last two years and have just come to terms with the fact that it never has and never will work properly, with no clear cause. That said, I'm slowly going to be migrating from my sig rig to the...

    Corsair H100

    Newegg has refurbished Corsair H100s on sale today as part of their shell shocker for $55. This seems like a good deal on a solid cooler as long as you're not on the LGA1150 platform. I'm thinking about picking one up for my Athlon II X6 1090T BE to see if I can squeeze a bit more out of my...
