That's really surprising! You don't notice any improvement to at least the start up of games compared to the 4gb ram config you used prior? Such a large increase Id have expected it to be quite noticeable. I went from 4GB of 1066 DDR2 to 16gb of 1866 DDR3 and it was a highly noticeable...

Sepe, a quick google search of that motherboard and looking at the specs answers your question (albeit hard to decipher your jumble of words): http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/RAMPAGE_IV_EXTREME/ Quad-Channel DDR3 2400 MHz The motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of...

I don't think it's the timings you need to worry about Junkboy, but the money, haha. Will be very interesting to see some realworld benchmarks with DDR4 Ram and the new 8 core intel chips.

I'd like to see this same test with 1x8GB and then 2x4GB. I still imagine it would be faster with the dual channel sticks however. Regarding the topic, I just stuck with 1866 on my 16gb of ram. Not worth the extra cost for 2400 to me, especially when it may hinder any OC potential of the CPU.

10 feet into the air with a safe landing? I don't know about you, but jumping 10 feet into the air, with an extra 50+ pounds on your back and landing doesnt sound that safe to me.

I don't think anyone can over generalize how a populous should/will act via facebook. Some people cannot talk about certain issues easily, some people get jealous easily, some people find facebook amplifies it all. Regardless. I use facebook, my woman uses facebook, our families use it. I...

Yeah, you're right. Well, at least about the ramdisk option. Although not to get OT, but this ramdisk stuff looks pretty interesting. I shall give it a try.

Now if you wanted a nice DDR1 system, then you should be concerned more about latency =) In your case though, the difference isn't even noticeable. 7-7-7 to 8-8-8, you won't notice it, plus you'll have 200mhz faster frequency.

What the douce would you need 12GB of ram for? Planning on opening 100+ applications, video encoding, and playing a game, along with hosting a gaming server all at the same time? I'd go with the faster frequency myself.

Keep the stickers on the RAM as they will void the warranty if removed. Your best bet is to just use the new RAM and chuck the older stuff away, pertaining the newer is quite a bit better. You need to list more info than that though.

That's extremely odd. That option shouldn't have even been filled out by default. Was there a reason you had a maximum memory function enabled in the first place? I am intrigued.

Yee haw!!!! Twice in less than a year I have them completely crap out on me. First time, all FOUR sticks died, seemingly simultaneously! Second time, which was last week, 2 out of 4 conked out. At least now Crucial has said they are sending me RAM that has a voltage of 2.0 instead of 2.2...

The hell is a midgie? Anyways, nice mods, I prefer the big ass rectangle/cube with the skull on it. Skull wins.

Remind me to never post first in the comments, haha.

There were plenty of laptops in the video, the redhead was a well deserved bonus :)

lol. This will certainly teach her a very prompt lesson in proper digital camera use. Hell, when I was a kid, we had Kodak film, and cameras that we weren't allowed to use as they cost an arm and a leg, and it would waste film. Stupid kids these days.

I don't agree with that opinion being the best, as it caused (or could have caused), physical harm to certain people, just by viewing it. This defacing though, is pure awesome. Too bad they didn't make it more intelligible and maybe it would have went unnoticed for a while longer.

Exactly why I don't join any more groups myself, minus the 4 or so that I'm already in (but doubt the names will change). I still find this story hilarious!

I thought the movie was pretty damn good. Although I'll admit I only went to the theater because I had a buy one ticket get one free coupon, and that makes it worthwhile.

I read this at cbc news website earlier this week and was quite surprised, but glad that this has happened. They already had a sort of 3D Solar Cell before, but this one is 9 times better than the current 3D models and, as the article said, 500 times better than flat cells.

I definitely would pay for a clock like that, but it seems the current spec would be quite cumbersome to mount on a wall.

*heart Corsair* Love you guys.

That's quite see-through right there. Surprised no one caught on to that. Only an illiterate person would stoop to such a level. You aren't as such if you're posting on these boards, so that only leaves one resolution: Arrrrrr me matey!

Haven't Linux distros been doing this for years now? There's no clause for concern here.

This makes comparing card prices across multiple extremely annoying. Guess I'll stick solely to NCIX now (usually have anyways as I'm Canadian). Now as I didn't read the entire article, is this a USA thing only? I'm assuming it is based off of recent comparisons on NCIX and Newegg

Obviously attention to detail was not present for their bad grammar.

I need a new LCD monitor and mine is a 2.5 years old now. I'd easily be able to review it as I'm on my computer a good 4-6 hours a day after im done working, likely more so on days off. Figure this would also be a great way to switch brands from Viewsonic to BenQ, and it offers a discounted...

Very nice article. Really puts my own way of doing things into perspective and I may just have to start using the pea method, haha. Thanks.

Using that rationale, wouldn't marking an 'X' with thermal paste be even better than a line? Way I see it, use whatever method you want, provided you do it well.

This so called "line method" isn't something I'm accustomed to. I've built many PCs and I've always used a credit card or razor to smooth out a very thing layer of Arctic Silver on all my procs. I haven't compared this to another method, but this seems to provide me with very effective...

One note of interest is Speed (mbps) between Canada and the US: Canada: Internet bandwidth (Mbps per 10000 inhabitants) 2006 67.34 USA: Internet bandwidth (Mbps per 10000 inhabitants) 2006 33.06 I'm assuming this has to do with the US having almost 10 times the population as us...

Guessing I got a pretty rad chip when I placed my order. All I know is I can run it at 3.4 rock solid, but since I haven't upgraded my heatsink/fan I keep it at 3.2 so I can keep the stock vcore happening.

Spend a bit more money on a better motherboard right now to avoid future problems.

Ahhh, nevermind, just did a speedtest myself and it's bits. Wow mine is slow, maybe should have stopped my xbox 360 downloads and closed utorrent and the laptop turned off.

Is that in kilobits or bytes? 2.9mb/s seems a bit unreal to me for upload.

Definitely keep it under 65-60 Celcius for optimal life (I replace CPUs every 2 years, so as long as they last that long, I'm good). I also have mine to 3.2GHz at stock vcore, runs anywhere from 35-38 idle and up to 45-48 under load. I find it to be just right for just using the stock...
