    News G.Skill Unleashes DDR5-8000 C38 RAM For $530

    Unlike our old DDR-4 stuff, the new JEDEC DDR-5 standard works a little differently than what we're used to! When upgrading/building a DDR-5 system, LOOK at the information for the motherboard you're thinking about buying, to see if there's a top speed rating for the DDR-5! SOME mobo's show on...

    News AMD's Dragon Range and Phoenix APUs to Feature RDNA 3 GPUs, According to Driver Patches

    Yeah, I have been trying users, especially gamers, to get hold of EVGA and see if we can get them to talk to Intel about making ARC hardware with like dual gpu chips and other customizations to give us some really great cards! Imagine the speeds and availability of "all setting set to high, RT...

    News AMD Ryzen 7000 Chips on Massive Sale, Starting at $249

    I'm talking about the prices in this post. All of them are supposedly at Amazon and not supported by AMD? It will be interesting to see where 'all things AMD' goes from here. I think the problems lie with the switchover to the JEDEC DDR-5 standard. They got a little lost?

    News AMD Ryzen 7000 Chips on Massive Sale, Starting at $249

    ["Yet, the new discounts — which are not official price cuts by AMD — will perhaps sweeten the pill."] Apparently these prices are from Amazon and NOT AMD, so yeah, Intel can do a SmackDown and have a good go of it. They overclock better at this point. Also AMD is new to the LGA sockets, so...

    News Some RTX 4090 Graphics Cards Recommend a 1200W Power Supply

    What Intel ought to do, is contact EVGA with their new cards, and say "Here! See what you can do with it, we're having some driver issues! Can you help if you can have unlimited creativity?" Can you just see EVGA taking out Nvidia with graphic cards that have (like some in the old days) free...

    News What GPU to Buy if You Can't Afford Nvidia's Ada or Wait for AMD's RNDA3

    You know, and I know Nvidia is playing games with us, hoping we don't catch on! First of all the CEO blamed the higher prices on "cost of build goods". That's BS! When you find the specs on each build (4080,4080 and 4090) and examine the Cuda core counts, the GPU core models, there's too much...

    News Why Nvidia's RTX 4080, 4090 Cost so Much

    From what I'm gathering you're going to need a much larger PSU than 1000 watt for this card! Jayztwocents runs it at approx 1600 watt.

    Pentium e2200 vs core 2 duo e6600

    Don't know if this comes too late, but the E6600 is already a 3Ghz processor, therefore it MUST overclock higher than 3Ghz! The E2200 is a 2.2Ghz processor and can be overclocked to 3Ghz! The 6600 (in MY opinion) is a better core 2 duo processor! Try overclocking it to about 3.5Ghz Also BOTH are...
