Thanks LogicBomb31 you are more helpful then that other person who I knew right off the bat wouldn't help at all. I read lot's of other forums asking the same question, where there are salty people exactly like that. Glass half empty type people. I never wanted "Average Joe" nor "Big Corp" to...

I dont see what the business of yours is to know why. Twice non the less, so who is the child. I dont see any rules on this nigelivey. Its not like I am asking for a P2P sharing torrent download site program, or what keys I need to shave down to open doors or start vehicles, which rumblers to...

Why would I do that? Its a simple question. I like my anonymity and finding out that Google, GMail, Google Maps, Youtube (Google owns that too), pretty much anything Google owns saves my IP address. Heck Google even scans your emails. Its all very scary. I started using other products like...

Why not? I will look into cloning the MAC address of my old N router into my AC router and see if it changes the IP address. If that works then I can just buy really old routers on the cheap and do the same, ever so often. I tried TOR but its just too slow. There are also a lot of VPN's...

I have a new AC type router and an older N type router, but they almost look identical. I have a bridged isp cable router, so my isp states to turn off my AC router for the IP Lease to run out. I gather my IP address is based on the MAC address of my AC router. But how long would it take for the...

Basically the title says it all. I have been looking at benchmarks for the different CPU's. Like an i7-2600 is so close to a i7-3770, always off by 5%. Same goes for the next jump up to i7-4770, and i7-6700. X5650 6C/12T is close to a i7-2600 4C/8T, just better in workstation. So I've been...

Its hard to compare different generation CPU's but I want to know if its true that a XEON X5650 in LGA 1366 is equal to i7-4790 LGA 1150 = i7-5820 in 2011-3. Or their K brothers. i7-4790 3.6 GHz 4 × 256 KB 8 MB HD Graphics 4600 350–1200 MHz 84 W i7-4790K 4 GHz 4 × 256 KB 8 MB HD...

Never mind going wih Xeon, same price for the CPU.

And do I need a Z board to do it?

Wow "The Z170 board supports faster RAM which is worth a little extra performance, but I don't think it's very cost effective." You do realize ram in games means jack squat huh. There is so much mis-information and statements made that if you dont know nothing, you better get to knowing something.

I priced out some i7 1st gen, about the same price as Xeon. What about performance differences between i7-9xx vs Xeon X56xx or E55xx? Then those against a 3rd gen i7? Someone said the performace increase from 1st gen i7 to second gen i7 was 15-20%, is that true? The price difference between...

Well I dont have a 3770, just want to compare performance. My desktop in the office is an i5-4570 upgraded from a AMD Athlon x2 from HP. So I want to use the parts from that to build a $200cdn Xeon + 1366 + ram computer, reusing my PSU, GPU, SSD. There are lots of Xeons available, and most are...

Now I know any gaming rig will run excellent with a high frequency i5 that has 4 cores and 4 threads. No need for an i7 with 4 cores and 8 threads. The main question I got is, why would you need 6 cores and 12 threads or higher. Is it just for video editing and rendering? The reason I ask is...

Wow!!!! $2000 for a laptop Cheaper to build a compact 4th gen desktop and haul that around in your backpack at school. Sure you wont be the cool cat with an Apple, sipping on Starbucks and munching on granola snacks. Also depends if you want more lanes or 2+ gpus with the route mentioned...
