    Question about the new Prime95 28.5 and FMA3

    I wanted to upgrade from my 3570k to a 4770k as I started to use content creation applications on a regular basis my i5 is not really cutting it anymore. Haswell has some nice specs but the heat problems scared me off and I always wanted to go LGA2011 anyway. While I already know some...

    Corsair H80i Stock Fans (SP120?) vs. GT AP-15

    I replaced my older H80 with the H80i today and used the stock fans because most reviews said they are the highly praised SP120 High Performance model.
