    i5 vs i7 haswell for gaming

    "CPU's Master" wtf does that mean? sounds like some useless faggotry. anyway, to the point - i5 = perfect companion for mainstream chipsets, be that Z68/Z77/Z87 - the cpu seems almost pointless as judged by recent tom's comparisons & the current ranking of all i5 CPU's from the...

    Waiting on a GPU... Can I run Sim City in the meantime?

    300$ GPU- Gigabyte 280x?

    Having trouble deciding that one myself, i keep slipping back & forth between 280x & gtx 770. The price difference is fairly insignificant now; $30 (£20 here in uk)

    Fan controller with OFF switch

    at all handy with a soldering iron? building your own one is a fairly simple affair & can customize knobs/switches to your own desire.
