Harry Potter would buy the greatest release just as you would pay to go see his movie. Harry Potter would want you to also buy his signature series underwear with his name on it.

The real upgrade will happen when Intel hits 9. Because 9 is a multiple of 3. 9 will be the big one for time is running short . 9 is also upside down for the depth man is buried 6 foot . And 9 is also upside down for 666. So now we can see why 8 is no big deal.
What if a man didn't listen to the sales people and stayed with a 4 core? Would that make him a non-money maker? The people pushing 6 core (we had that with AMD 7 years ago) and hyper threads do you not think they are in it for the money?
How can we go from games don't use more than one core to 4 cores are obsolete? I think people want 4 cores to be useless because in their head 8 and 16 cores means something more. But in reality a 2 core CPU can actually still game.
I know what you mean but by no means are games going to be unplayable with 4 cores in the next 4 years. And by the time you all need cores with extra threads for gaming you'll want to upgrade anyhow.
It's all good trust me. 8100 is no slouch for the budget minded gamer at 1080p. Did I wants a...
I want to run stock and save electricity. I don't think I will need more than this i3-8100 gaming at 1080p. I am a rather conservative gamer who is okay with just enough.
I didn't buy a board yet but it would be wise to get a z board so in a couple years I can drop something else in.
You're...
Max memory speed is 2400 the i3-8100 is allowing. Can I buy 3200 and let it down clock itself so when I buy a new CPU upgrade I will already have the fast memory?
Yesterday I bought an i3-8100 which will be here today but I have no board yet! If it's true I would have to wait a month or more for cheaper boards then I'm going to buy a board today and be done with this. The only thing that bothers me is the 8100 only takes a max of ddr4 2400 memory right?
I am struggling to find one. Just please give me some reliability. I had X program and it sucked. Blank screens, not recognizing camera and just down right bloody.
COD WW2 needs - "Game need SSE4.1 instructions, which is not supported on phenom"
This is what I was told on a forum. When I try to open it brings up the little black box saying its opening and then goes away and never does in about 15 seconds. Reading around I seen other Phenom users having...
Well looks like Phenom 2 users are out of luck when it comes to COD WW2 since the game doesn't support it. I tried to play the open beta this weekend and no go, dead. I might just build this darn g4560 and be done with it.
IC it is faster. But if I sit myself into a socket 1151 on the verge of extinction now I'd be better off locking into a brand new release and paying for a $120 new CPU with 4 solid cores. If I didn't have the extra 120$ I would build the g4560 now but for $120 I'd rather be at the front of a new...
I don't have issues at 1080p using my GTX 760. But its getting long in the tooth soon and I dip down under 60 fps sometimes, FPS games is my choice.. And when I occasionally make a video with Wondershare and add effects it is pretty slow at converting down to a file. I also have network issues...
Seems people are skeptical of private system builders unless its a friend now days. Heck, there really isn't no money in making systems for people..
My local pc place hires at 8 an hour now. How can you live on that when you can make more at Target? I don't mean to get off subject but being a...
2 weeks? I thought Coffee Lake was further out. I think I will skip socket 1151 and either go Coffee Lake or Ryzen.
I shouldn't have an issue getting my $65 back on this CPU considering its selling closer to $100 now.
I can unlock it to 6 cores but I don't think I need it. I like to use as little electric as possible although it probably doesn't make a lick of difference anyways. I also don't see any difference when they are unlocked and I had some stability issues in the past when unlocked, which may have...
Hi. I've been using this 960T in stock form since 2011. I know the G4560 is faster and when it was $65 I bought one and it's just sitting on the table.
I am hesitant at this point to make a build considering the option from AMD now and the upcoming Coffee Lake.
Do you think I'd even notice...
Regardless of cookie issues on your pc your IP is traceable all across the internet. I am sure websites log internet traffic with IP's. Once they know your static IP that's a good sign its you. Do they act on the IP at all? This is not to be cared about since you can't control that.

There is no hitching involved with this CPU. I don't know where you get your info but you need to stop spreading bull.

I understand what you did right there escrow4. You picked a game which is dependent on the CPU more than the GPU.
Pick a GPU stressing game and you will see little difference.
Either way I understand PII is old and long in the leg, but for people with little to no income it is still usable. I...
The word "bottleneck" basically means either choking if off completely with zero gains or diminished gains.
There is no way that CPU chokes it off completely. On the other hand if you had a INTEL CPU you would see better gains. How much better? When it comes to gaming 10 -20 FPS loss vs INTEL...
That thing has 4 cores @3.0. It's faster than needed for web browsing and video watching. By the time you shell out for a new system and wait for the energy bill to return the cost of the new system I'd say you'll be waiting a long time just to break even.
Why don't you just uninstall it? You don't need it for youtube anymore. I find since I uninstalled it only smaller news websites I cannot watch. Lots of local station still use flash. But I would say the big sites now have other options.
Of course you don't need a new one if the old one works and is in good shape. But I definitely would take an air hose to it and blow all the dust bunnies out of it. Then inspect it for swollen caps if you can see in there. If you see caps swollen get rid of it even if it works.
I got the gtx 760 as well and play at 1080p.
The 960 is a little more efficient but not a big enough upgrade. Hunt down a 1060 like I am trying to do but they are so hard to find right now.
Here is the CPU support list for that MB you have. It will run plenty. I'd upgrade if I was you and enjoy it for some time. I wish I could drop a 8350 in my MB but mine is older than yours. Just make sure the bios is updated before taking out the old chip...
You don't understand what is healthy and what is not. I forgive you. No use trying to teach someone as hard headed as you.
I've been into health foods for over 20 years and I know.
If I was you I wouldn't worry about privacy anymore. In the coming years they are going to make us get a log in just to use the internet. And an ID will be attached to your tracks with your name.
See another dentist. I do know if there is not enough room then the teeth will overlap each other. Even though I got 4 wisdom out my middle lower tooth fell behind the rest and eventually caused a root canal.
I had all 4 wisdom out done awake. The thought of being put to sleep is far more...
I remember when AMD64 chips for a single core was like $650 or something like that.
I miss the days when upgrading a CPU was a huge thing an seemed to happen often. 1 core to 2 to 4 - lots of upgrading fun. Now days once you have 4 you have plenty for everyday usage and gaming.
