    Coolermaster RS-750-ACAA-A1 / Coolermaster 750 Watt Psu - Help Intermittent Power On

    I was thinking the same, but my goodness they are not cheap units. I am also just torn apart by name brands and real practicality. Sometimes an Aiwa cd player is just as good as a Pioneer one. Get another Coolermaster or try Thermaltake or or or, and do i just stick to Gold rates at least? I...

    The problem is shipping so i would allow for somebody else to take on your CPU.

    Is it time to upgrade? 3800x or a 3900x....or wait for the 3950x lol

    So for you , u reckon buying a 3900x is not really a must ? Or is it okay if am not in the game yet ? and leaving overclocking alone? Or , i was thinking, why not get the 3700x with a decent board and then over clock? u said u have 5700 , not the xt? and how does the card fair ? intensions to...

    Is it time to upgrade? 3800x or a 3900x....or wait for the 3950x lol

    With no intention to hijack this thread: Is it stupid to go and buy a 3700x instead of the 3900x? - i mean do you really see a huge difference decrease? My objective is just casual gaming, encoding , general CPU tasks instead of using GPU - some video encoding for best quality, Crypto Mining...

    AMD CPU and Moterboard Combo

    Hello, I am looking for a combo deal, motherboard cpu and ram for now. I currently have old systems Intel i7 2600k and AMD FX 860k Both great in terms of performance and value for money.

    How much and which DRR3

    SO i want to go ahead now and buy the DDR3 ram, I could not be bothered about fastest memory such as 2000+ in megahertz so I will go with better bang for buck, and get a 1866 or 1600 or 1333 i guess. I do not know if brand really makes a difference. I was thinking to get 2x 4GB sticks or 1 8GB...

    How much and which DRR3

    Okay, so i am worried now, which is the maximum speed this board will support ? If i can get 2400 then great. I thought 2133 was the max. But now i am also concerned i am wasting my time getting good memory even because Xiphos says that i gain 5% if that. *sad face*
