    GIGABYTE GA-B75M-D3H space concern for GPU + Sound card

    Thank you for your post, so the stx is going to get in the way of the usb headers and the front panel audio connector or not? Because they're currently in use.

    Corsair GS500 enough for GTX 670?

    many games? Maybe I'm reading it wrong. You're saying my cpu will keep me from staying at 60 fps or over 60 fps in MANY games? My research (all opinions from forums, mind you) pointed to the opposite. In fact, BF3 multiplayer would be about the only thing that would create substantial dips in...

    Corsair GS500 enough for GTX 670?

    yes I play ay 1920x1080 and I don't overclock. I did search about the combination of the gtx 670 and the i3 3220 and it looks as though I'll be fine with everything I'm planning to play.I dont play BF3 multiplayer for example and I don't mind toning down Skyrim if I can't get at least 60 fps at...

    Corsair GS500 enough for GTX 670?

    Well, isn't the gpu the most power hungry part of a system? my other parts don't come any where close to using that much power and from what I gathered from the tomshardware review, the gtx 670 uses 247w on average. And the reason I asked is because I don't spend my time on this forum and found...

    Well the bottom pci-e slot has connections right under it that seem like they would interfere with any card put there.

    Need help! Lenovo Y580 vs Asus N56vz vs Samsung NP700Z5C: at different price points

    The T530 has an excellent battery life and connectivity but I wouldn't say it's "heads and shoulders" above the other laptops in build quality when taking into account that it has about the same weight (heavier than the samsung though), has lesser specs and has worse temps than the others (even...

    Need help! Lenovo Y580 vs Asus N56vz vs Samsung NP700Z5C: at different price points

    Not all of them are terrible though and they made progress in the last few years. The Envy and the Elitebook series are top notch.

    Need help! Lenovo Y580 vs Asus N56vz vs Samsung NP700Z5C: at different price points

    I think I'm pretty much set on the Asus n56vz (regardless of the heat issues - I never rest my hand on the sides of laptops anyway and it doesn't hinder gaming like the Lenovo Y580 does) or the NP700Z7C if it pops up soon here....Canadian electronics retail companies and international...

    Need help! Lenovo Y580 vs Asus N56vz vs Samsung NP700Z5C: at different price points

    Well, the thing about Asus is that they have superior displays, among the best matte displays out there. It's also less chunky than the Envy 17 (1.37 pounds lighter) and about the same weight as the Envy 15 (5.79 lbs on the envy vs 6 lbs on the Asus) but that one has a weaker GPU . Also, I can't...
