My wifey is still using my old Q9450@3.2Ghz w/ 8GB RAM and it's definitely getting long in the tooth lol. I have a i7-4770k @ 4.3Ghz so when I use it even for mundane things...yeah, I try not to touch it lol.
Should be getting her a brand spanking new upgrade for her in the next two weeks :D
Hey guys, I currently have a WD Black 4TB as a pesudo storage/game drive, but with it filling up, I'm looking to put the media files and downloads onto more of a 'storage' drive. It's been awhile since I've looked at HDDs and the current two I'm looking at are the:
HGST Desktar NAS 6TB...

Love my X-Star@120Hz. I will have to say that the bezel is fairly cheap so if aesthetics/features are one of your points, these aren't for you since they're pretty a bare-bones display.
Hmm. Why would the E6600 not work? Min requirements for CoH2 are a E4400 2.2Ghz.
He's not looking for super smooth everything on AA gaming. He's looking for a video card that will make it work and not be fully bottlenecked by the CPU. As far as I can tell the game is more GPU dependent as...
Hey guys,
Just putting together one of my old comps for one of my buddies and the only thing he's missing is a graphics card. Was wondering if someone might be able to suggest a decent video card that can play Company of Heroes 2 @ a resolution of 2560x1440 (He wants the same monitor as me...
Alright, thanks a bunch for the help guys :)
Now just time to double-check around and order. Knowing my luck there'll be some stupid sale the day after I put this thing together ;)
Well, I think I'm going to be adventurous and end up swapping the H100i for the H90 and pushing it a bit farther now. Thanks lehtv.
I think everything else looks pretty good, aye? :)
cbk - hah yeah, but that DVD drive looks perfect for me
Yikes. I would not be able to survive on 100GB past a month or two probably :|
lehtv - thanks for your feedback. Given that info, it probably does indeed make more sense for me to look at the H212EVO if I don't plan to o/c to those...
Hmm, alright, good to know. Thanks for that info on the RAM & the two findings earlier btw.
Sounds good about the board. If I were to go for more aggressive o/c would you recommend the Pro version then I guess?
As for the light overclocking, I'm planning to try to push to 4.0/4.2 stable if I...
Hey lehtv, thanks for the info.
Quick question, my buddy initially recommended to me CL9 1.5V, would CL10 1.5V be much different? Or would most of it be simply perception/theoretical benchmarking? I am fairly sensitive to snappiness so I'm genuinely curious. (As a point of reference, I...
Hey cbk, thanks for the response.
1. Do you know if that RAM would work with the H100i, as I'm told I need a low profile for the radiator? I was looking at the Crucial Ballistix but it's pricey and I'm pretty sure I can find better :|
2. The link is back to the RAM ;) But I think you mean...
Hmmm, alright. Back to reading a plethora of reviews :|
On a completely unrelated note, I'm still sorta getting over the advancement in BIOs support now. I'm used to DOS or that blue screen and navigating with arrows...not these new mouse-enabled fancy smancy full-featured BIOSes lol.
Hey DSF, thanks alot for the reply :)
You've brought up a great point for the SSD for a gaming drive, and I think I'm going to be looking at a 256GB SSD for gaming.
In regards to the 7970 with the game bundles, unfortunately I already own pretty much all the games they're giving away (although...
