A 2500k sitting @ 4.5 ghz will be faster than a stock 3770 when it comes to gaming. The gap from Sandy to Ivy is pretty minimal and for gaming it's even smaller than that. Yes the 3770 is the superiror chip for all around compute jusr for the fact it's slightly faster thread for thread and is...

I would say go for it. Titanfall was/is a GREAT game! I've spent prbably over 100 hours shooting pilots in the face (and vice verasa Lol). I have it on PC and while the game wa a blast it alwys felt extremely limited. The game got stale real real fast and now it takes forever to find a game...

Got in on preorder for the PS4 already. I am so excited!! I never thought I would be so exciited for a game I have already completed but it is what it is. The entire time I played the game on my 360 all I could think about was "I wish they would have waited and released this with better GFX on...

I LOVE PLASMA!! However, I will sya this to the poster who claimed 4k content on a 4k tv ( A descent 4k TV) euqipped with an LCD panel cannot look better than a plasma; You're wrong buddy and my new LG would totally disagree with that assumption. While understanding this claim is objective of...

Nobody?? All I'm wanting to know basically is if a software based calibration solution exists; and if so can this software be placed on a USB stick??

From the two mmonitors your looking at I would go with the 4k. Just because they are the same price you might as wel go with the faster; higher resolurion monitor. I wouldn't get either of those. Look at the Toms articled did you see that tempest? It hasd an IPS screen with descent response...

I still have my P2 964 @4.2 ghz and those sying they can't tell the difference from it and something like a 2500k well;I would have to question their perception Lol. As much as I love my 965 it is way outdated by now. It will struggle running most newer titles that are CPU bound even in the...

Ok so sorry if this is the wrong place to post this question but I've been a member of Tom's for a long time and Ive come to trust most of the advice here when it comes ot electronics. Well "Most" Lol. So i just bought this big sexy beast of a 4k TV (LG65LA9650). I love the TV and all but I'm in...

HT is not completely useless for gaming (despite what some naysayers will proclaim), but at the moment its not very useful either if you have an i7. If you look at benchmarks with the i3 w/HT compared to CPU's with a higher core count you will see HT helps the i3 by quite a bit depending on the...

None can give you a minimum frame rate to expect as every game/system is different. All in all you should have minimal bottlnecks with single 780ti. The FX is a quite capable CPU and pretty much every game thats GPU bound will produce awesome results @ 1080p/60. Now with that said you will run...

A little more info would be helpful. Did you just build this computer? Does the black screen happen before the system loads windows and after the POST?(In other words are you able to access your bios? What's your setup? Processor,RAM,PSU,Motherboard??

You're idling @ 60c?? You should be idling around 35-40 MAX. Thats your problem right there. If your temps were that bad when you first installed the cooler you probably did it wrong the first time. Now the problem has gotten out of hand. Remove and reapply thermal paste. A little goes a long...

LoL is like entirely CPU dependant. I'd be surprised if your using even 10% of the GFX card. Try an OC and see what happens if anhything that would isolate and eliminate the possibility of the CPU being the bottleneck.
