Asrock Z68 vs Z77

You're probably right but I wont be doing it for a little while and I'll get a new board when I do but the Z68 will do me fine for now as you say :)

Asrock Z68 vs Z77

I'm not planning on doing any serious overclocking any time soon, maybe a small overclock but not going for more than around 3.5 Ghz. I've gone for the Z68 at £70 which is a price I found it hard to say no on and it meets my requirements at this time and I can upgrade in a year or two if I do...

Asrock Z68 vs Z77

Hey guys, I'm in the process of buying parts for my new pc and there are two motherboards I'm looking at. One is a Z77 and the other a Z68, they are both made by asrock who are fairly new to the market I gather but make decent boards. Just wanted so feedback as to which I should choose. The two...

PSU dying, suggestions for a new one

From what I've seen no-one has a bad word to say about Seasonic psu's so you could go for the Seasonic X-650 which has a gold rating and gets highly favourable reviews. It is fairly expensive at $130 but looking at your specs you've obviously spent a fair amount on it and this is probably within...

Keyboard and Mouse for Gaming: Any suggestions?

Keyboard wise, the Microsoft Sidewinder X4 and x6 are great keyboards. The X4, unsurprisingly, is the cheaper of the two and has back lighting, lots of macro keys and is well made and then the X6 has a few more features added on. I personally use the X6 and recommend it fully! :)

Gaming Mice Suggestions

I have a Mionix Saiph 3200, which I absolutely adore, its got a weighting system to tailor it to your preferences and 7 different sensitivity settings. If you are looking for a high number of buttons this isn't great it only got the two extra on the side which are on a rocker rather than having...

How long has your computer lasted?

My current rig has been going for 2 and a half years or so but I'm putting together a new rig for uni, however, I would say my current rig would easily go for another year or two (possibly). It could use a clean install of Win 7 but its parts aren't obsolete yet. I've got one of the earlier...

550w Coolermaster GX?

The reason I'm going for the H60 is that I don't want the huge heatsink block from a fan cpu cooler in my pc, call me crazy :D I'm also thinking about the aspect of keeping things quiet, the fan in the corsair is reported to be fairly quiet and along with the fact that its much easier to keep...

550w Coolermaster GX?

I was originally going to go for the i5 2500k and so I chose the board to go with that but after deciding to go for the 2400 I suppose I could change to an H67, thanks for the feedback.
