Any Corsair SF450 users ?

I just built two PCs with the aforementioned Corsair SF450. These systems are identical and both have an i7 6700k, a Gigabyte Z170N Gaming 5 and a GTX 1070. Reason I ask is that I've noticed the fan on the psu never goes on, on neither system. My personal system is running at 4,8Ghz (1,4 vcore)...

Need advice, looking to replace my Logitech dinovo edge keyboard

The title says it all. My keyboard is starting to show its age, it's been in constant use for over 6 years. I've been to some local stores and I have definitely not liked their offerings. I recently got a new Dell XPS15 and the keyboard on that machine is stellar. I need something similar...

No need for AA @ 4k ?

I was just thinking about all the reviews that have come out for the R9 290x and most of them include 4k res benchmarks. Yet they always seem to include some AA in the settings and I'm wondering why the hell? Isn't the image and corners smooth as butter when you game @ 4k ? And if so (I...

Why Oh Why Have Good MMORPGs Died?

Yes, although some people just want to get away sometimes, and not have any interaction with other people. The games then stripped away the need to group completely in open world quests for those people. I'd rather just have hard quests that say: Hey if you don't feel like grouping right now, go...

Why Oh Why Have Good MMORPGs Died?

I think the reason why people might be excited for TESO is that it isn't your typical WoW clone, or here's to hoping. I think one of the things that make a great MMORPG is actually making you have to work for things but not going overboard. I played WoW Vanilla for 2 months and had barely made...

Anyone played the new Tomb Raider

I was wondering if I should pick it up on the steam sale for a measly 12$ Still I don't just throw away 12$ unless I'm sure. The game looks good but it looks like a copy of the Uncharted series. I'm just wondering if its different because Uncharted is very boring to me, like watching a...

There are 4 in my home, OsX and two W7s plus my Vista and they can all access the internet except mine. I'm trying to use my recently formated old Windows Vista laptop but it does not allow me to access the internet. I can connect to the router and the ethernet but I have no internet access...

W7 splits SSD in 3 partitions in setup

So I was setting up my computer after putting together a Haswell machine. The SSD Os disk previously had previously been split into 2 partitions, Os plus one tiny system reverse. I deleted the 2 volumes and created a new one, now it created 3 partitions called: system, MSR (reserved)...

Antec P280 no intake fan...

I just bought an Antec P280 case thinking there would be 2x 120mm intake fans and one 120mm rear exhaust. That is how the case was configured in the Anandtech review from 2011 I read. However the case came with 2x 120mm top exhaust fans and 1 x 120mm rear exhaust. So there are really no...

Are you buying Haswell?

Could someone tell me if there is any difference between i7 4770k and 4770 performance wise, if I'm not planning on overclocking?

Best dual gfx card per/$

yes, deep down I've always known that the gtx 660 edges out the 680 in 1080p, especially when you turn up the AA.

Yeah, cheapest I've seen it is 290$ w/ 3GB ram. And how is the gap between 7850>7950 same as 7950>7970... even if you go by their titles it doesn't make sense.

Best dual gfx card per/$

Yeah I was just hoping to get a slightly more powerful system to last long, but I guess I can just get the next card 1 or 2 gens after this one. The reason I stuck with the HD4980 so long is that in crossfire the single cards only caught up with it in HD 6 series, its about as powerful as 7850...

Yeah, I've been reading through the gfx section of this forum and people seem to think Crossfire is pure shit, so maybe getting a single card is wiser. I'm not a AMD fanboy so I don't mind getting nvidia in SLi setup if thats getting me similar perf. per dollar. But the 660 Ti is not as good...

Upgrade since early 2009

Thanks for the input darkckhart, I think I'll wait for Haswell. Still wondering what GPU I should get. Edit: If i'm going for 16GB memory what is the core difference between getting 2x8 or 4x4 modules.

But that isn't nearly as powerful as dual 7870s is it :hmm: As for crossfire being bad, I've had no issues with my dual HD 4890s. I was also wondering if I should get the 660 Ti although its slightly more pricey. The resolution I'm currently using is 1920x1200. How's that.... the "best"...

Best dual gfx card per/$

I'm thinking about replacing my HD 4890 crossfirex setup with a pair of new cards. The HD 7870 Tahiti LE in crossfirex looks like the best performance I can get for under 500$. Is there anything else I should consider in this price range? (400-600$). No matter the manufacturer.

Currently wondering if HD 7870 Tahiti LE x 2 is the best choice for my budget. At least they seem to be very reasonably priced and about as powerful as a HD7950. As for CPUs I saw Tom's benching a preview of i7 4770k and it doesn't look very powerful compared to the stuff thats already out...

Thanks for the responses. As for the checklist. 1. The PC will be used for all general tasks you web/school/photoshop but those are secondary. Where I require most power is when inserting multiple emulation plugins on audio channels and when gaming. 2. Budget I'd say 1400$ 3. I'll be...
