    Worth Upgrading from 2630qm

    Oh wow that sucks, I had a M17x, the headphone thing broke and they did not have the part so they sent me a M17X R2, when one of the videocard's died the sent me a M18x. I never even really used the original M17x, got it as a gift.

    Whats the best CPU for my purposes?

    Since you are doing photo editing, a Core I7 might be a good cpu for you because of the hyper threading. But you could still get away with a cheaper 2500k.

    i7 3820 or i7 2600k

    Since you are doing, just gaming and web browsing, I would say that you have no need for either of those cpu, if you must choose from either one of those cpu, then go for the 2600k, if you are open to other cpu options then go for the 2500k, you don't seem to be doing anything that justify's the...

    GTX9800 +

    If you want to give AMD, a try, I would say go 6850/6870, if you feel comfortable staying with EVGA, then go with a GTX 560.

    Worth Upgrading from 2630qm

    Ok, thanks for the input, I was never talking about upgrading to 2670, I was thinking about the extreme cpu. I have used a computer with a SSD, and I could tell the difference, I just did not think that it is worth it.

    Worth Upgrading from 2630qm

    Why do you hate your M18x, I have no problems with mine. Are you going by Dell parts or just parts for it in General.

    Worth Upgrading from 2630qm

    I don't understand I was using a I7 740qm cpu, and then came to the 2630qm when I got the M18x, and there was a big performance boost. I don't want a gamecube, I can't make it run in 1080p like I can on the computer.

    Worth Upgrading from 2630qm

    The 6970 does nothing in emulation, and you can force 1080p in emulation cpu does all of the work.

    Worth Upgrading from 2630qm

    So the reason, I want to upgrade the cpu, so that gamecube emulation can be smoother, there is some lag, I think going from 2, to 2.4 would make a difference.

    Worth Upgrading from 2630qm

    I was trying to selling the laptop (M18x) but they buyer backed out, I wanted to buy a desktop, with a 2500k for emulation, and gaming, and then get a used Asus G73, or something.

    Does the size of a tv matter?

    Changing the size of the screen that I have been using has never really affected me in a negative way. This could be due to the fact that I am also changing screen sizes, because I am going from my laptop, to my TV, and back. But you do have to compensate, for where you are sitting, due to size...

    populating all DIMM slots hurt OC'ing?

    A couple years ago, I heard, that populating all, slots would stress the north bridge, or south bridge, i can't remember. But that was a couple years ago, so it may not be relevant any more.

    Potential upgrade questions

    As mentioned the 6950, is a great card, and many can be unlocked. Even without getting a version that can be unlocked it is still a solid performer.

    Torn Between 7770 and 6850

    Nice picking up that videocard looks like a solid performer stock, and should overclock very well.
