Question For those with a Kingston HyperX Alloy Core RGB Membrane Gaming Keyboard

I can confirm that there is indeed the audible whine when RGB is on. I had mine replaced twice because of this. Like you said, there is no whine when RGB is off and on breathing one color mode.

SSD Real-world performance gain is negligible compared with HDD

SSDs are only good for: 1. fast booting 2. fast shutdown 3. opening # programs that you will never use at once in the same time 4. fast transferring of large files SSD should be your last upgrade if you have a fairly fast enough system/rig. SSD should be your first upgrade if you...

P67 MB compensation

I went to MC and demanded my compensation too. I told them how this "Intel" chipset fiasco has been a problem to me. I told "MC" to exchange my board and they did so willingly then, I mentioned about the $25.oo credit that was floating around during the recall and how I should be getting one...

Rumour: Bulldozer 50% Faster than Core i7 and Phenom II.

I noticed it too. @that test. They might have used a discreet card with the intel procs too but AMD forgot to list it, no? is AMD saying on that slide that AMD proc + discreet >>>> Intel proc + IGP?

Bulldozers Weak/Strong points?

AMD = A Motherload of Disappointment AMD will be a step or ten behind Intel in terms of performance. AMD is budget oriented though. If anything is good about the Bulldozer then, shouldn't there be a glint of hope or leak about their upcoming first lineup and their benches. There is none. So...

Who's struggling to justify upgrading their CPU?

^ I couldn't agree more. And part of the reason is this Intel chipset fiasco. Intel lost a big amount of chunk through the recall which could have been profit. Intel would want to get back some of those lost profit. If 2011 is indeed to come out this Q4 as planned then, it would cut them from...

Most robust 1155 Board for around $120?

z68 with Quciksync (H67) and ability to use discreet GPU (P67) and SSD caching (SSDs too expensive still this time for me) but no USB3 capability .... no thanks! I'll stay with my P67 B3.

How much of a gain would an Intel i3 be over an AMD X2 6000?

I would say pretty significant. I just built the MC i3 combo and compared it with my professor/dean Q9650 + REX setup and this i3 DUAL spanks the 775 QUAD everything and both setup at stock. i3 DUAL over 775 QUAD is pretty significant. Me likey! Just wow. Quick general benching is as...
