    When you guys over clock, do u still have turbo?

    I set my bios to default, i have a asus z-97a board, and this time when i oced, my clocks are consistently at 4.4ghz. I made sure the turbo was enabled, and tpu. Am i doing something wrong? And is it bad to have an overclock stay constant, besides wasting power (idk about $10 a year bill wise lol)

    Z97 has sata express but...

    I have a z97 chipset by asus, and i saw pictures of sata express (up to 10gb/s) but i can't find any, on any website. I typed in sata express under newegg, and other sites, and have had no luck. Does anyone know where i can but this cable? It plugs into 3 sata's like the link below,(second to...

    sell i5-4690k for i7 4790k?

    I'm hoping the broadwell K series will come out in Q1 2015, and ik they have a new gpu the "Iris pro" but i don't have any use for it being that I have a beefy r9 280x at the moment. Hopefully there will be a 20% increase at least and come minimum with 4 cores with HT. I think broadwell will...

    sell i5-4690k for i7 4790k?

    How much faster do you think the broadwell will be over the i7-4790k? On the internet, they show a ton of laptop stuff, like it being energy efficient, but for a desktop that's not much of a concern

    I'd assume intel would prob try to release it around xmas too.

    sell i5-4690k for i7 4790k?

    Since i'm probably going to sell the i5, would it be better to wait for broadwell? Since intel plans on releasing skylark or w.e it's called, would the prices of broadwell not be too crazy? I'm sure broadwell will come out in a month or 2? It's already pretty much 2015. I have a 2010 dell xps...

    Doesn't battle field 4 optimize over 4 cores? That's this year too

    sell i5-4690k for i7 4790k?

    Maybe I am being a bit too optimistic, but I just got a 500gb evo 840 ssd, I have a radeon r9 280x that I plan to crossfire, and I feel like games within the next 2 years are going to start taking use of more than 4 cores, so that's why I am thinking about doing the upgrade

    sell i5-4690k for i7 4790k?

    I'm thinking about trying to sell my cpu on ebay for $180+ then buy a i7-4790k for $300 since the prices went down. Would it be worth it? I have a z97 board, isn't the next generation going to be out soon though? How much faster will it be? I was going to sell it and get the i7 to be more...

    Should I buy this SSD?

    http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=20-147-249 I haven't kept too much of an eye on prices, but should I wait for prices to drop more, or you think that's as low as it'll go?

    Trying to get a ssd card on black friday. What specs should I look for?

    My current specs: i5-4690k (4.5ghz) amd radeon r9 280x 8gb ram 500gb 7.2k hard drive (7 years old lol) Now i'm not sure what to do, try to just buy a 512gb ssd card, or get a 256gb ssd and run it in raid. If I run my 7.2k hdd in raid, will it really slow down the ssd card? another option i'm...
