    $300 to upgrade system

    hey everyone really appreciate the feedback. well, i do have the luxury of a flexible budget, and the case for the extra $100 providing significantly more longevity was compelling. Particularly reading how even the Shadows of Mordor is looking for lots of VRAM (6gb for ultra?), I felt getting...

    Is this a bad time to buy a GPU?

    Are we at the end of a production cycle, or is there still a lot of value to be had in the current wave of cards? I'm looking to spend 180-200 on a card. Will I be able to get a lot more value out of that if I wait until later this year? Or is everything mostly going to stay the same between now...

    Gigabyte P67A - UD3. Can't find any compatible RAM???

    My budget is anything under $50. So, basically, you're saying that there is no reason to get G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (46.99) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231275 over G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600)...

    MPC-HC "doesn't play well" with Sandy Bridge???

    Even if the SB IGP supports DXVA, I won't be able to use it if I have my 8600gt connected right? Isn't it a "one-or-the-other" situation when it comes to having a PCIE video card installed. Plus, I don't have the "H" line of mobos that supports the 2500k IGP. I was under the impression that...

    Gigabyte P67A - UD3. Can't find any compatible RAM???

    yea, i'm starting to realize the supported memory list is not exhaustive. will having the heatspreaders improve my ability to overclock the ram? or at least keep the sticks cooler?

    Gigabyte P67A - UD3. Can't find any compatible RAM???

    do the other timing numbers offer any noticeable improvements? the $40 g.skill ram has 9-9-9-24, whereas the $46 g.skill ram has 8-8-8-24. I don't mind paying the extra $6, and I like the cooler looking heatspreaders (silly reason I suppose). I just want to make sure that the $46 g.skill ram...

    Gigabyte P67A - UD3. Can't find any compatible RAM???

    *sigh* all of the 2x2gb kits that are in my price range are not listed on the supported memory list for the motherboard. did you read the first post? you don't have to insult my intelligence. just provide some assistance if you can.

    Gigabyte P67A - UD3. Can't find any compatible RAM???

    my problem is that the supported memory listed on the motherboard product web page is not dirt cheap. i thought that was clear from the first post. Umm, yes. 8gb kits are out of my price range. I need a 4gb kit as mentioned in the first post.

    MPC-HC "doesn't play well" with Sandy Bridge???

    I'm considering upgrading my system to a 2500k. I currently have a P4 3.2 Ghz which means I can't run my 1080p videos on processing power alone. I make great use of DXVA using MPC-HC. Since I don't have enough cash to upgrade my GPU just yet, I will have to make due with my 8600gt until I can...

    Help me upgrade my old P4 3.2ghz to Sandy Bridge

    I don't really have a budget. I just want a 2500k. The PC will be used for gaming, and HD media. My budget is "get a 2500k for as little as possible while still having something that will last for a few years".

    Help me upgrade my old P4 3.2ghz to Sandy Bridge

    My Pentium 4 3.2Ghz pc has lasted me five years. I never expected that pc to last as long as it did. I guess hyperthreading allowed the processor to stay competitive in the dual-core market. Now that we're in the middle of the quad-core market it's time to upgrade. My problem is cash flow...

    can you guys explain what ffblackmage meant about getting RAM that runs on 1.5v? You're telling me I should get the cheaper RAM of these two sets: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231225 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231223 Why is that?

    Help me improve this patchwork $1200 build

    thanks for the help. i made some changes. I stuck with the i7 950, but I found a combo deal with the mobo I wanted, so I was able to save $15. I changed to a gtx470, a 650w PSU, a 64GB SSD, a 1TB spinpoint for storage, and my total is up to 1270. It's over budget, but i think its acceptable...

    Help me improve this patchwork $1200 build

    As I mentioned in the original post, the main use of this system will be AutoCAD. I have gotten a lot of mixed advice on whether the i7 is overkill, or whether it will be worth it considering the load of 3d renderings. Could more people weigh in on this specifically?

    Trying to build a PC for < $650

    Every review I've read of the 4770 claims that the drivers are piss-poor. Apparently ATI doesn't really have any drivers that work well with the 4770, and the only drivers that do work are some hacked version of the Catalyst drivers that you get on a disk with the card. I don't want to have to...

    Do you need to prove business to buy a Vostro?

    I think that the Dell Vostro is a good deal, but I'm not actually a small business. When I called Dell(I've heard that the sales reps have some leeway to haggle), they said I would need tax information. Can anyone verify? Thanks.

    Laptop Question Acer vs Dell

    Actually, I can't find a compaq or hp for anywhere near similar prices. Closest I can get is about $660. That's an extra 160, and money is really tight. I also don't want to wait for prices to drop because school is starting.
