Thank you everyone for your help. I did find a netgear that has an Access Point mode and even has external antennas. http://www.netgear.com/home/products/networking/wifi-range-extenders/EX6100.aspx
Maybe I wasn't very clear... I would like an Access Point in the shape of the plug mount wireless range extenders. I like the form factor of those devices and how they automatically mount to the wall with no other wires or drilling into the wall required. I have an ethernet port already right...
So I'm looking for a wireless range extender in the plug mount configuration that can use the ethernet port as the input for the network, vs the output. I have a TP-link range extender that works okay as a range extender, but I also happen to have an ethernet port right next to the outlet I use...
The performance of the i3 vs a stock Athlon will be in favor of the i3. You haven't said you wanted to overclock but an overclocked Athlon will catch up to the i3 when overclocked (for the most part). But, the upgrade path on the Intel platform is far far far better than the upgrade path for...
For those reading this, an Intel W3530 is a quad core hyperthreaded Bloomfield at 2.8Ghz. http://ark.intel.com/products/41313/Intel-Xeon-Processor-W3530-8M-Cache-2_80-GHz-4_80-GTs-Intel-QPI
You can get any Haswell i5 quad core with a H81 motherboard for less than $300. The sweet spot right...
Well, I won an auction for an i5 2600k for $200. I guess I'll replace my i5 2500k in my main rig with this 8 threaded CPU. Now I need a motherboard and some RAM. I guess I'm not sticking to my budget. That's how it goes with this hobby though...
My Micro Center closed down. It was a sad day for all of us in San Jose.
I've got some bids on some 2500ks on eBay, but haven's seen any with motherboards at all. The processors alone are going for around $170 and I already lost one auction because I didn't go above $160. A used z68 board...
Thanks for the advice, but a GPU will never be a limiting factor unless I'm already playing on low settings. I can play on low and medium settings and I still get the same stuttering which means it is the CPU that is my limiting factor. I know the 7770 is not that fast, but it still looks okay...
I meant to say H81 and the cheap motherboards only have 2 ram slots so I wanted to leave one free. Single channel is like a 2% penalty and I'm willing to live with that.
Mantle didn't really help all that much and now the game crashes after every round
I'm looking for the cheapest useful CPU upgrade for a PhII 965. I run it at 3.6ghz on the stock heatsink.
The rest of the system is as follows.
Antec mATX case with Earthwatts 380W PSU
AM2+ mATX motherboard
8GB DDR2 800 RAM
AMD 7770 at 1.1ghz
This is a second PC for when friends come...
CPU choice: yes
Motherboard: Overkill. Are you going for an overclocking record? I don't personally see any sense in buying a mothboard for more than $200. I'm not in the market right now so I don't know the best boards out there, but this is just throwing money away in my opinion.
SSD Just...
You'll need to provide more specifics about each part # as well as some sort of comparison point for us to determine if this is actually a good price. It seems like more than twice what we would pay in the US. His your guy building this from scratch or is this an OEM box?
