I've asked a similar question before but this year it is once again relevant. Microcenter is running 7700Ks for $279.99 and my 2500K is looking a bit long in the tooth.

I am currently running a 2500K @ 4.5 GHz on a P67 board. With microcenter selling 6700Ks for $259 the upgrade bug is starting to bite. I've read a lot on this board about how kaby lake and the Z270 platform is coming soon. Given my situation, is it worth making the jump now given the price or...

I posted a couple months ago in the general tech forum about a power cycle issue and the consensus was that the most likely culprit is my almost 6 year old HX850. That said, I'm looking for a replacement PSU that can power an OCed 2500K and 295x2. Modular is an absolute must, other than that I...

I recently purchased a Sapphire HD 7950, Did some minor overclocking, had it running rock solid at 1200/1600 @ 1.25v. Temps never went past 65 C. It was running this way for about a week now. Started up today, had major artifacts in all 3d applications I tried (Crysis 3, heaven). Reverted to...

Hello all. Recently purchased a Gigabyte GV-R797OC-3GD 7970 and promptly returned it after discovering it was voltage locked. Doing some research I am lead to believe most of the 7970s in production at the moment are voltage locked. As such, I have turned my attention to perhaps a 7950, which do...
