  1. Another case recommendation

    I've been looking around for cases to stuff with my build that's going to include a watercooling loop and was wondering if anybody had some suggestions (outside the usual mainstream Antec, Corsair, CM, Lian-Li, etc.) for around $200-250. So far, I've taken a good look at MM and some Danger Den...

  2. $1500 Gaming Build, Please Advise

    I think this is the first thread I've ever read with a thumbs down for Antec 300. I just had to post.

  3. critic my i5 2500k build

    4GB of 1333, 1.5v would be good enough. If you already have that Q9550, keep it. Getting Sandybridge won't be worth it just yet, imo. I'd probably dump the funds into a faster GPU than the GTX460 just because you can afford it, but a 460 will hold over 1080p just fine. Maybe a 6950 unlock or a...

  4. Gaming PC for neighbor

    Dead but not useless. Granted it's not going anywhere, but 1366/1156 didn't have very long lives either. By the time he needs an upgrade from an X4 640, there will probably be another platform or better options than what's offered now. Like everyone else is suggesting, the 1333 RAM is a...

  5. Suggestions for case

    Best "not too pricey" case would be the Antec 300. Simple and elegant. There's also this as a cheap alternative to the 300 if you don't like solid black.

  6. Upgrade opinions

    Your system is fine. Only parts I would upgrade are the GPU and HDD. You can get a faster drive like this one. Other upgrades would depend on how much you have to spend. At 1680x1050, see if you can't find a deal on a 5870 (~$200 last week)/5850 (~$170). Both of those are probably the fastest...

  7. New Build, Looking For Some Advice

    If you're getting a new platform, you might as well get Sandybridge. If it's not price gouged, you can fit it into your budget, with a 5870 (sold around $200 last week) as your GPU. If you don't need something so powerful, go with a GTX460 but get the 1GB version. You can even drop the PSU down...

  8. Need help choosing a new build

    Yeah that RAM will work fine. Hopefully SB won't be priced gouged like the 58xx was.

  9. New gaming rig for 3D - need opinions.

    Yeah you won't get great fps, but I was just saying that it COULD handle it. Of course, if you have room in your budget for a 570, go for that.

  10. New gaming rig for 3D - need opinions.

    BCLK is locked on SB. You OC by raising the multiplier which doesn't affect the memory. Props to mfenn for that fact :P. I'd just go for the cheapest 1.5v RAM you can find by a reputable maker. Also, you might as well go for a SF-1200 controlled SSD (or wait on the SF-2000 Vertex 3)}. Intel's...

  11. Starting to consider a graphics card for this build.

    Probably the 460 1GB...it'll handle everything at your resolution just fine. You'll want to start saving for a bigger monitor though before you upgrade it any further.

  12. 1300$ to spend.

    Only case fan I'd change is maybe putting some intake fans on the Antec 300 (which the Antec 300 Illusion comes with :P).

  13. 1300$ to spend.

    H70 is too expensive for my tastes. I'm sure the Intel HSF will do fine...SB has hit really high speeds using the stock cooler.

  14. 1300$ to spend.

    +1 to the single card solution! Even one 460 wouldn't have big problems running most modern games at 1080p...

  15. Need advice on a home workstation/gaming rig

    Oh, cool thing to know 8D.

  16. Need hardware suggestions for my PC build

    At $200, you'd be dumb not to jump on it if you need a GPU. If Sandybridge does end up being price gouged, the i5-760 is still a fantastic gaming processor...

  17. Need advice on a home workstation/gaming rig

    Ah I forgot to mention RAM. Yeah DDR3-1333 1.5v should be sufficient. You probably want 8GB from G.Skill in this category. If you plan to OC the system, 1600 RAM should help, but not absolutely necessary. It doesn't sound like you use this system too much for gaming, and a GTX460 should play...

  18. Need hardware suggestions for my PC build

    wat

  19. Need hardware suggestions for my PC build

    If Sandybridge is going to be sold at MSRP and not price gouged, you're probably looking at an i5-2500k paired with a mobo (~370 for both). A 22" monitor usually runs at 1080p, so a deal on a 5870 would be your best performer at its price range (~200). Otherwise a GTX 460 or 470 would also be...

  20. Need hardware suggestions for my PC build

    Firstly, do you have an operating system? Win7 could take a huge chunk of the budget,

  21. Best performance at 225$?

    5870 crushes everything at $200. Really excellent oc'er I must say, but it won't have enough heat to make you waffles like the 470...

  22. What gaming performance & resolutions can I expect out of this computer build?

    This is like trying to win a horse race with a turtle ;). Seriously though, don't expect much. ME2 is hard enough to run for most mid tier machines, and AFAIK, DA:O is a more dependant on the CPU (right?). You're probably looking at a res of 1400x900 unless you upgrade the GPU to a 460 or...

  23. Need advice on a home workstation/gaming rig

    you definitely want to go for a new cpu platform, so i'd hold out the few days to buy Sandybridge. As far as your GPU goes, the 9800 is old news :). Look around for a GTX460 1GB. Grab an SSD! You should go for a 120GB SF-1200 controlled one by ICZ, G.SKill, Corsair, etc. I haven't fully read...

  24. Looking to buying core parts advise please

    i5-760 + MB + 8GB DDR3-1333 1.5v (4GB if you don't do a lot of rendering) + GTX460 will put you close to $500....not sure how you're gonna be able to fit that monitor in unless you go for Propus or used parts

  25. Another one...build critique please :)

    I may be wrong, but I haven't heard Thermaltake's name among the top manufacturers for heatsinks. H2O is always a good option, but an expensive one. Whether the drop in temp is worth the premium is up to you. Even if two 570's will last a long time, I was just suggesting that the money spent...

  26. Buying my first PC since college

    Build your own. Go for Sandybridge. At the MSRP listed, it's got speed alright... If you're on a tighter budget, AMD would be way to go. Just fill out the sticky on the top of the topic list and we can give you suggestions :).

  27. Just a quick question: Which heat sink should I go with?

    Let me tell you your first mistake: you're using Newegg ratings :). As long as your have a bracket for the socket, any heatsink will fit the mobo with exception to RAM height and maybe chipset placements, but overall, it will fit. Those are both very outdated. The Scythe Mugen 2 is a little...

  28. Doing an upgrade (Need some advice)

    Get a Phenom II X4 + SSD and call it a day. IMO, the rest of your rig holds up fine in gaming. I'd try to upgrade the monitor before upgrading the GPU/CPU platform.

  29. Another one...build critique please :)

    You should get a better aftermarket cooler and OC the crap out of the system. It'd be such a waste to run a 950 @ turbo speeds or even stock.....ProMeg, VenX, NH-D14 are all great HSF. Two 570's seems a bit much for 1080p...I'd suggest selling one and buying an SSD. You'll get the fatter upgrade...

  30. Building a nice video editing computer. Any suggestions?

    He's right. You put together a really sick $2k gaming build... +1 on this build for the $2000 mark (I would have skimped on a few parts to save some money, but your listed budget is $2000). Might go with the Corsair Force/G.Skill PP, but I just have a personal preference against OCZ.

  31. Upgrade cpu/mobo/ram or GPU?

    GPU. Any quad-core aside from the first Phenom is still purty fast. I'd probably for a deal on a 5870. Thing is a steal @ $200

  32. First computer build for architecture

    +1 on the Xeon, ECC, and workstation graphics. Really depends on how much use is going to be put towards workstation vs. gaming. That looks more like an overkill gaming setup.

  33. Upgrade and wait or buy new?

    Going from the 6600 to the 8500 isn't even worth $.50 :P. I could buy two gumballs with that... Better off finding a deal on a GTX 460 1GB and saving your money for a platform upgrade (which could be now). I think Conroe's still a good processor...but upgrading is up to whether you can truly...

  34. My New Build Plan - What Would you Change ?

    Who, you ask? People who don't come on AT first asking for advice :P. Same gimmick that gets a lot of people going CFX when their needs don't justify it at all... And those who pick RAM because they want a fan over it...

  35. First time builder, looking for validation on my build

    just by comparing the two, the i5 is better imo. just use the general rule i follow for ram: 1600 if you are ocing, 1333 if u are not. technically only 1066 is "supported" i think but it doesnt matter. the intel will also be the better oc'er as far as my experience with both goes. ocing deneb...

  36. First time builder, looking for validation on my build

    i vote 5870 if you can find one for about 230 new. even the 5850 at 170 is a steal. go for the i5 over the phenom and if you cant fit the 5850 or 70 into your budget, im willing to let go of my 5850 :) or look for a used in the fs/ft section. people on AT take good care of their stuff. pm if...

  37. My New Build Plan - What Would you Change ?

    Might as well follow mfenn's advice on the 8GB of DDR3 and SSD. Using that HDD as a boot drive is like riding a turtle when you can ride a cheetah... WC is always going to have better results than air (or I would expect), usually in the range of ~10c from the top air coolers. It's up to you...

  38. My New Build Plan - What Would you Change ?

    How much of the time will be put into 3D rendering/gaming? You'll definitely want 8GB if you're looking at heavy video editing and 3D rendering. I'd probably go with G.Skill DDR3-1600. I really wish I could help a little more in that department, but I don't know too much about requirements on...

  39. My New Build Plan - What Would you Change ?

    I would do everything differently (no offense). What is this for? Fill out the sticky on the top of the forum topics. You have extreme overkill in almost every category. If it's for gaming, you'll get equal performance on 1/3 of the budget...Just because parts are priced higher doesn't mean...

  40. Please critique this build

    most budget builds are done on amd platforms (afaik) with ddr3 availability and cheap quadcores, so i would save just a little more for a nicer all around rig, but if you cant trade the mb for an am3, looks good. i might drop the antec 300 for a cheaper rosewill or try to stretch the budget by a...
