    Neither are my intentions. If it's factory OC'ed then I don't mind. Because I won't really overclock but crossfire or sli... Maybe in the next major upgrade. Thank you bicycle_repair_man. You do know how to help. I wish you all the best sir. Thanks to everyone who answered, good luck guys :)

    I got it now. Infact, I reached the same conclusion regarding the difference of 285 and 280. And I preferred 280 because of that very reason :) Any suggestions for the mobo Or should I stick with the ASUS h97-plus?

    Btw I think I'm not entirely correct up there, by 'single-threaded' and 'multi-threaded' games, I meant those that utilize single core and those that utilize multiple cores respectively. Like how Far cry 4 and BF4 use multi-core processing compared to other majority of games that capitalize on...

    Ok so if I upgrade my gpu to 280X 3gb or 285X 2gb and pair it with i3 4370 or 4350, how well in your opinion can i run games that utilize single-threaded 'and' multi-threaded processing? Also if you have knowledge about this, which one's better, the 280X 3gb or 285X 2gb ? The i5 is at the...

    I think I'll go with r9 270x Toxic then. I selected Toxic as its the best performance card in 270 series. Or maybe second best or maybe even third, as long as it's factory OC'ed and has great cooler then I don't have to worry too much about reducing my graphics details. You're absolutely right...

    Thank you for the reply helpstar. I agree with you on all points. You're right about the heat problem specifically, I already have extra fans and cpu cooler in mind but that might have to wait until a month after I build my PC. Cooler master evo 212 plus or anything similar or better will be...

    Rohit 13 thank you for your recommendation. Unfortunately that cpu is over RM.650 here, which is exceeding my budget greatly. I'm in a situation where the only alternative to a 6300 is an i3 and that's the Haswell refresh version. Because it's the latest(and the best) from Intel in thit line of...

    For taking time out to explain in such detail, thank you bicycle_repair_man. I'm now beginning to understand the implication of Intel's updates. You're spot on about AMD and there outdated architecture of CPUs, so if I go with Intel and pair it with a R9 270x Toxic then is it going to give me a...

    I'm sorry for writing late. I never expected such fast responses. Thank you all for your great inputs. It's really down to 'this' last detail or 'that' last thing about either of them which drives me crazy lol. On the contrary I do understand the implication and usage of the extra cores on the...

    AMD vs INTEL --- Gigabyte vs ASUS

    Hello everyone. Firstly, I apologize for beating around the same popular bush but I need an honest opinion to finalize my list of items. After asking many many people and researching my hair off I learned that AMD and Intel are exactly same more or less when it comes to daily practical usage be...
