    I have no idea what is the right temperature

    Thanks for the reply! I don't actually use more than one, I just noticed this one day accidentally. I normally use HWMonitor which you're now saying is inaccurate most of the time.. :( Well, if that's the case i'll uninstall that and use real temp. Thanks again!

    I have no idea what is the right temperature

    Hi Gang, Here I have 3 apps showing 3 different min, max, current temps. How am I supposed to know which is correct?? This has got me confuzzled. Anyone have an idea on which to trust? Aida64, CPUID HWMonitor, and Real TEMP GT. I'm running Asus x99 deluxe and a 5820k. Pics below...

    Looking to upgrade for better peformance

    Thanks Danny! I'll definitely be looking in to getting what you've suggested. That setup will allow for stable o/c to what seems to be the norm of 4ghz for that chip? With the added savings I could probably grab an ssd and throw a fresh install on there. Any recommendations on SSD's? Thanks...

    Looking to upgrade for better peformance

    I checked out those articles and of course you're right. It doesn't seem like a good choice in terms of dollar per fps. Sorry I also haven't formatted in awhile but I tend to keep my OS in good working condition with not a ton of apps and no strange ones either. Fairly basic machine for...

    Looking to upgrade for better peformance

    Thanks for the reply Danny Bui! The setup looks half decent. However is that far greater than what I have now? Would it not be beneficial to go with a i7 930 or 950 and say a gigabyte ud3r? My issue with PC's and it's always been an issue, is buying something that lasts longer than 6 months...
