    i5-6600 v. i5-6600k- Is the extra $50 worth it?

    So I'm in the final stages of my new build, only a few things left to buy. So this leads me to my question concerning the processor. The i5-6600k, the new jewel of Intel's i5 line, is drastically overpriced over the MSRP, with Newegg's price currently at $279.99. Whilst the locked i5-6600 is on...

    Waiting for Pascal GPU, Should I crossfire my R9 270X for $110-30 in the meantime?

    So I have a dilemma, I'm pretty much set on saving up for one of the high-end pascal GPUs- $250-350, and just skipping the current Nvidia 900 series and AMD 300 series. But I also still want to be able to modern games at 60 FPS on higher than low (I spent too much time on a laptop eeking out 20...
