    Haswell-E upgrade?

    Would there be any huge difference going from a 2500k to a Haswell-E build? I mostly just use the system for gaming. Or is it better to wait and see if Skylake is a huge jump?

    Rayman 2 Origins

    Got it off of steam and it's a really nice platform game for those that like those types of games. Has co-op, looks great, and the gameplay is good. It's also DRM free.

    I'm looking to buy a 260 GTX for about 75 dollars shipped. The card is a replacement for a friend and has to arrive in 2-3 days. So for shipping I would require USPS in one of those flat rate boxes. I assume a medium sized box would do the job.

    Lame Starcraft 2 plot
