    Just bought i7-5820k for $319, should I return it for the i7-6800k for $399? Well within the Return Policy.

    Ok so I bought a new CPU paired to an MSI X99A MB with four sticks of 8GB DDR4 RAM C15 3000. Originally I bought a different RAM but decided to return it (Crucial Ballistix 2666 DDR4 2x8Gb). Today I open my iPad to see that Intel just dropped four new 2011v3 platform (X99) CPU's and I was...

    Will my system not bottleneck the GTX 1080, or should I switch to Z170 or X99? Achtung! Long!

    Thanks for reading and for all responses. OK now lets get down to the nuts and bolts of the situation. Currently I have a; MSI Z77A-GD55 motherboard, Intel i7-3770k CPU @ 4.2 h2o cooled, 16Gb of G.Skill RAM @ 1600 (4X4GB) with XMP profile, Corsair TX750 watt PSU, Sandisk SSD 120Gb for...

    Intel Trims 11 Percent Of Workforce As Desktop PC Market Nosedives

    I think there is just a tech change that we are experiencing in every area. Home PC's got eaten up by laptops mostly but laptops are limited and as the IoT era begins I think Home PC-like devices, which service the homes entire network will begin to pick up more steam. Intel also should focus...

    Acer's Predator Gaming Projector Can Be Yours For $5,000

    Well if there is no other gaming projector on the market, especially utilizing lazer tech than they can set the MSRP whatever they want. When, honestly, has any of us gamers paid the price set by the manufacturer at the date it comes out? I would say like probably less than 10% of us and only...

    Switching from SLI GTX 780's to GTX 970's, Won't show screen...What do I do??

    As stated my rig right now consists of two MSI GTX 780's in SLI but I want to put in two MSI GTX 970's to give a slight upgrade to my graphics power and being able to use all NVIDIA's new features. So I built my PC from the motherboard up (MSI Z77A-GD55), picked the CPU (i7-3770k), the RAM...

    Hands On With Square Enix's 'Platinum Demo' For 'Final Fantasy XV'

    If there is no PC version than really, what is the point of making these games? Obviously most of us here are gamers and as such most of us are running Windows 7/8/8.1/10. Which, BTW, Microsoft itself said that will be universal with the XBox One Apps and Games, if not now than at least in the...

    Apple Gets Smaller But Retains Horsepower With 9.7-Inch iPad Pro, iPhone SE

    I don't think it is "dirty" per say to offer 16GB and 64GB but I do think the lowest Apple storage option should be 32Gb like my three year old Windows Phone. At least with 32Gb you know you will have decent space after the OS. Or why don't they stop what their real dirty tactic is and add...

    Microsoft Rolls Out Firmware Update For Lumia 950/950 XL

    Waiting for the Surface Phone then I will drop $600 on a Windows Phone so long as they are moving in the right direction by then. Proud owner of a Lumia 928 for years now and I use Windows 10 Pro at home so I want to see this work. They already are killing with the Surface Pro 4 and even the...

    Fallout 4 Benchmarked

    OK so how is my i7-3770k @ 4.2Ghz with SLI MSI GTX 780's with 3GB VRAM going to do? Apparently the 970 (GK204) is leaps and bounds ahead of a 780 which is a lesser Titan (GK110b) which confuses me although I realize that they developed it (970) for gaming only and removed the FP stuff. I just...

    'Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate' Benchmarks: A Stressing Experience

    I am not an expert on what constitutes a 'benchmark' but I think this was a fair approach giving the reader various framerates with completely different rigs. If, I assume, it was a true benchmark everyone would expect an Intel i7-5960k with 16Gb of RAM and a GPU that is current. However many...

    SLI GTX 970's or GTX Titan X for 3440x1440p Monitor w/ G-Sync and does CPU Bottleneck?

    Well like I said I have BOTH two GTX 780's which I purchased when they came out and recently bought two GTX 970's because I was told they would be good for that resolution monitor as the 970's scale better at higher than 1080p resolution screens. Now I am considering a future purchase of a...

    SLI GTX 970's or GTX Titan X for 3440x1440p Monitor w/ G-Sync and does CPU Bottleneck?

    As described in the thread I am wondering what would be the better setup for this resolution monitor considering it has G-Sync to handle frame-rate latency? I was running two 780's with 3GB VRAM and moved to the 970's because they (were supposed to) have an extra GB of VRAM and that they also...
