    Too many options. What should I use to cool my 7700k

    I would highly recommend an NZXT cooler. I recently upgraded my rig from the H100i to the Kraken X61. I like the CAM software a bit better than Clink.

    Q9550 for bf3 worth it?

    In order to take advantage of dual channel they have to be matching size per slot. Your not running dual channel right now. You will get double the memory bandwidth if you change to 2x2 or 4x2. (if im wrong someone can slap me ;)) Maybe im wrong?

    Q9550 for bf3 worth it?

    I guess my first question would be are you really running 6gb of memory on that board? If so that means your not running it dual channel. Get another 2 gig stick of the same memory so all 4 memory slots are matching. If you have 3 of the 4 slots filled your not running dual channel. Should...

    Q9550 for bf3 worth it?

    I would say your biggest boost would be a better GFX card. Not saying yours is horrible but that 128bit memory interface kills the performance especially in BF3. Just remember the more powerful the graphics card is the better CPU you need to push info to it. For instance with my 9550 clocked...

    CPU Bottleneck? Q9550

    I doubt u will see any bottleneck in gaming unless u went to sli or xfire. Once u turn all the eye candy up along with AA its mostly on the gpu at that point. Sounds like u just have an itch to upgrade.... Me too!

    8800GTS vs 7800GTXsli

    Well i would say you would be good to go with the GTS. If you can wait, i would wait till the refresh which should be in a month or so. You may get a better deal/better (faster) card for the same money.

    Gaming with Vista, 64 bit or 32 bit?

    Ok cool thanks. Also i'm running raid. I have a new 64 bit raid version for Vista from Gigabyte the one that you copy to a 3.5" floppy and install prior to the OS install. How will this work if you do a upgrade in place?
