Well, not right away. The cost of GPU cards is pretty high right now. Just not sure.

Yeah, it is. As a matter of fact, I had ordered a used one from a regular Reddit user, and the damned thing got stolen in the mail; the sender didn't wrap it, having relied on the print-out sticker from the PO to bind it. Well, it didn't, and someone got in there and took it. At any rate, I may...

Excellent! Thanks, Lunas!

Well, I probably won't sell it; I'll keep it as a backup.

I see what what wrong. The Wiki page doesn't open up the Kaby Lake section; you have to do it yourself. I can see the process listed now. Thanks.

Sorry, that should have been 7700, not 7770.

Question: On the Wikipedia page that lists all of Intel's processors (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_microprocessors#64-bit_processors:_Intel_64_%E2%80%93_Sandy_Bridge_/_Ivy_Bridge_microarchitecture), it lists the i7 7770 as a Skylake socket 1151 BUT as a 6700 series. I'm lost...

Great, thanks much. Sheesh, I built this fool system myself some five years ago, I think it was. I don't remember much of anything anymore. I'm not even sure if I paid for or stole the parts! This getting old stuff sucks!

Ah, cool. Other than the video driver, is a BIOS update probably in order as well? I'm thinking I might need to do that once I get the i7 in there, but I'm really not sure. Thanks again.

Greetings all, I have an NVidia GTX 650 sitting in my ASUS P8z77-V LE motherboard. I'm updating the CPU to an i7 from an i3, and I'd like to update the video card as well. I don't know, though, how to go about figuring out exactly what I can put on this motherboard. Is there a reference or...

Okay, I can do that. First, I'll spam until my fingers fall off. Second, I'll...I'M KIDDING! Got it. Thanks much, StarkmanAlive

Holy cow, 100 posts elsewhere? Gads, I'll never get there. I just wanted to buy an LGA 1150 i7 3770, that's all! So, what do I do to buy without having to somehow come up with 100 posts elsewhere? Is there something I can do to work through this? Thanks again. Oh, and thanks for the welcome. I...

Hello all, New member as of today. I did get an email confirming that I'm approved as a member and that I can pretty much do what members do on the forums; however, I can't find a way to post on the Trade forum - there's no New Post button. What am I missing? Thanks much, StarkmanAlive
