Mechwarrior Online (Previously MW5/MW3015)

They moved the gyro from the chassis to the engine, that's where the weight difference comes from.

Is an iPhone used as a laptop modem as fast as a 3G stick?

That I can't answer, I've never used a 3G stick. I imagine they are both the same or similiar: Slow. :)

new machine build

+1 Get a more reasonable motherboard and CPU, if gaming is your thing. You probably don't need the 8GB of RAM either, go with 4. 750W will do you more than fine. Unless you run Xfire, you really only need a 500W max.

Is this a good gaming setup?

I get it, I really do. We all start somewhere. The best place to learn, if you have the chance, is from someone elses build, where you can ask questions and see what is going on. What raised the flag for me is that you asked what peripherals instead of just looking it up yourself. Simply typing...

Just use the cable the cable that comes with the iPhone and enable tethering. Just google 'Tethering with the iPhone'.

Not trying to be a jerk, but do you REALLY think building your own PC is a great idea? I'm concerned that you have a knowledge deficiency that may make putting the PC together more difficult then it needs to be and may lead to co$tly mistakes. Do you have a friend or family member that can...

Help With a Build

I have OCZ Ram in my AMD rig as well. One stick arrived DOA. OCZ replaced it pretty quick, but I have had lots of timing and voltage problems as well. I'll be trying a different brand next build.

Looking for solution for dad

The cheapest option is to get a Media tank for $100. They can watch Hulu, or stream video from another PC. You can also just plug in a USB drive and play stored media.

New Build for Dad..

He should be set for the next 3-5 years. Maybe a vid card upgrade at some point depending on what he's doing. Good job.

It's time for a new computer!

If you are determined to go Intel, why do more than an i5? Save yourself some $.

Questions about building new AMD system

What video card(s) are you running, that has the most impact on what power supply you should get. Get an Antec, Corsair or Seasonic. If you are running 1 video card, 500W-650W will be more than fine. If you are running discreet graphics, then you don't need more than 400W. G.Skill, Corsair...

They are on die. I did a little research, the difference in the 2 brands of temps has to do with how the digital temp is calculated, not the location of the sensor as I had stated. This is how the program works: (Reffering to Core Temp) Intel defines a certain Tjunction temperature for the...

Intel chips measure temp inside the chip, not at the surface or on the motherboard. 80C isn't going to kill anything. AMD chips, on the other hand, should not be operated at above 55C steady state, but that has to do with where the temp is measured. Internally, the temps are similiar.

Gamers: Do You Need More Than An Athlon II X3?

The x3 wasn't unlocked/overclocked either, so you can get even more bang for your buck.
