    What's the best i7 I can get for my money

    My i7 920 D0 runs 4.00ghz stable on air (NH-U12P SE) @ 1.28V. Temps are 39C/79C (idle/load).

    Intel Core i7 920 Overclocking and Heat @ [H]

    Thought I'd chip in :) This was achieved on air cooling (NH-U12P SE): I wonder how much lower I can get the vcore...

    Arma 2 Benchmarks

    lol, I love all the people bagging the game because their Q6600 ( >2 year old hardware) is bottlenecking. It's an incredibly good looking game at max settings with ridiculous map sizes filled with AI - heck even the wildlife in the game has simple AI. This game is both CPU and GPU intensive...

    Q9650 to i7 Setup?

    Well for the sake of another opinion, I think it may be worth going to i7 at this point in time as I'm sure you could get rid of your current CPU/MB/Ram for a decent amount. Wait any longer and you'll be losing value on your current setup. Not to mention the X58 chipset has a lot of life in it...

    e6400 - Still kicking?

    OP Here: In typical fashion, my inner impulse-buyer went ahead without my consent and decided on an i7 920 upgrade. I actually managed to get an Asus P6T Deluxe with 3 x 1GB G.Skill 1600Mhz ram for AU$350. Convert that to american dollars and it'd be something like $220 (electronics in America...

    e6400 - Still kicking?

    To be honest, replacing the motherboard is a massive chore and will undoubtedly require a clean format. I've got almost 300gb of files installed on this PC which are critical for university & work. I'd rather wait and build a decent overclocker on a current platform like X58/55.

    e6400 - Still kicking?

    I've just had been made a good offer for a 4850X2 and am considering replacing my 4870 with it. Do you think my CPU will make it worthwhile?

    e6400 - Still kicking?

    Thanks for the input everybody, I think I might just hold off and make my decision after i5 comes out. Not worth spending money if you're not going to get 100% benefit from it.

    e6400 - Still kicking?

    Hey all, just got a fairly simple question that hopefully someone who's been in a similar situation can assist with. My specs are as following: e6400 (2.13Ghz) Intel DP965LT 4GB DDR2-800 Asus HD4870 512mb Zalman 500W Ultra Efficient PSU Basically my dilemma stems from the fact that...

    ATI and Nvidia drivin' me crazy

    This is a pretty odd problem, but I'm going to have to go with the above poster and say it's the game developers fault on this one, not your cards. Which game is that by the way? Might want to make a post on their forums as well.

    How long before playing Crysis Warhead at 60fps constant at 1920x1200

    I don't understand what all the fuss about Crysis is about. I run it at 1900x1200 on a modest HD4870 512mb and with the CCC Mod I think it looks as good as the default very high settings. Although I do run it on DX9, that may be giving me a 5-10% performance boost.

    Intel Core i7 and Gaming @ [H]

    Ad aside, the game takes a lot of grunt to run. I'd like to see proper benchmarks regardless.

    Intel Core i7 and Gaming @ [H]

    Can anybody find a good review of the core i7's performance with Empire: Total War? I've searched google and the same crappy benchmark with "14 CPU's" keeps popping up with no regard to the Test System specifications or game settings. Core i7 is advertised on the games start-up, so I'm assuming...
