Is this adapter equivalent to the one you posted? (asking because the store is right next to my house) http://www.novoatalho.pt/ProductDetails.aspx?productid=28402 I heard that 6+2pin connectors transfered (probably not the right term...) 150W and the 6pin only 75W. Hence why I asked wether I...

Yeah but everyone keeps telling me that if my PSU doesn't have any 6+2pin connectors, that it's a huge risk to use adapter and that I might burn out my system. Basically these are the replies I get to this question: "1. You can use a 8 pin => 2 x 6 pin 2. A single 6 pin connector / cable...

Can I use a 2xmolex to 6 pin and 2x6 to 6+2 pin to power a R9 280X with my PSU?

So here's my PSU: Nox 620W (pretty sure it has single 12v rail) And as you can see it only has 2x6pin and no 8pin connectors. I heard that the 8pin deliveres 150W and the 6pin do 75, so I would need the 2 I have just to cover the 8pin requirement for the card, can I use a molex to adapter...

New GPU or New Monitor

From what I've heard the Asus VE247H is better for gaming than the VH242H, guess I made my mind. Thank you all! :)

Amd 7870 vs 7950

Where I live the 7950 is about 35 euros more expensive. I don't think it's that much a difference, is it worth it?

What are the advantages of it being LED backlit? And unfortunately the VH238H doesn't seem to be available here.

New GPU or New Monitor

My current CPU is an i5 3570 (non K, I don't overclock), right now I can just about run every game on High at 60 frames, except for Witcher 2 which I have to run on medium in order for it to be playable. I would like to play games such as Bf3, Crysis 2, Witcher 2, and of the sort. So, can you...

So I've recently decided to upgrade my gpu, currently have a radeon 6870 and was looking to get the amd 7950. However I was advised to get a new monitor instead, a 120Hz one, more specifically a BENQ XL2420T. My current monitor has a 1680x1050 resolution and 60Hz. What do you recommend me...

I was looking to get the Sapphire version. I think it's 11" not sure, but I've seen pictures and it fits by about 1mm.

My motherboard is an MSI Z77A-G45, my CPU is an i5 3570 (non k), I have 8Gb of RAM, and my case is an Anandtech 300 (which I was told that it will be a tight fit with the 7950)

Amd 7870 vs 7950

Can you explain more about the vram? I've heard that it's only useful for when using more than 1 monitor, and I'm only planning on using one? Still, I am looking for long term so I'm tipping towards the 7950.

Amd 7870 vs 7950

Hi. So I've recently decided to upgrade my graphics, an amd 6870 XFX, and I had both of these in mind, the amd 7870 2Gb and the 7950 3Gb. I currently play at a 1680x1050 resolution but would like to upgrade to 1920x1080 later, 1 monitor only, and mostly games like Battlefield 3 (yes my goal is...

Best CPU + Mobo under 300 euros (no overclocking intended)

I am looking to buy a new processor along with a mobo, after much thought and being told by my older brother that I should not overclock, I decided to follow that advice to minimize the risks. I want a CPU which will improve my performance just as much as the i5-3570k, except since it's not...

Is Intels i5-3570k worth it?

Hmm, people have recommended the MSI-Z77A-G43, saying it can OC the CPU quite well (up to 4.2 GHz). What are your thoughts on that mobo? And do you think the AsRock Z77 Pro 3 could OC just as well?
