    Which One To Get For Future Gaming FX-8350 Or AMD SAPPHIRE R9 270X 4GB GDDR5?

    Incorrect my friend. For gaming, ALWAYS think about AMD. Video games love using as many cores as possible. AMD's FX-8350 clocked at 4 GHz is an amazing cpu when it comes to gaming. That's even overkill. The FX-6300 is a good and cheap way to game when paired with a nice GPU for almost all...

    Why is my CPU running so hot?

    I would buy some Arctic Silver 5 and ATLEAST a Cooler Master T4 cpu cooler and your temps shouldn't reach above 60 degrees under heavy load. It only needs 88 watts of power which is nothing compared to older cpus. Especially if you havent overclocked. The 4790k is a beast and doesnt break a...

    Which CPU do I go for?

    Because you will be multi-tasking a lot and using video editing applications including HD video streaming, I highly recommend the Intel i3-4370. It is a 3.4GHz Dual-Core Processor with Intel's Hyper Threading technology, giving the chip FOUR processing threads, killing the heavy multi-tasking...
