    Does this build look good?

    Well thanks guys! This is my first build where I actually got control of the parts I wanted before I built it (in my first build my uncle chose some parts out, and well since he wasn't a gamer it didn't end well at all.) Just out of curiosity, what kind of overclock can I expect from the i5...

    Does this build look good?

    Hello everyone! I'm building a new PC and was wondering if this list of specs looks good. I will mainly be gaming on this rig, however I will also be doing some game development. I will probably not be doing any overclocking, and if you see anything that could be swapped out to save some...

    Would XFX give me a 7970 GHZ edition?

    Okay, that title seems a bit misleading. I got an XFX Double D Radeon 7970. This thing started failing me after a few months (tons of artifacts in games.) Now I originally planned to sell this thing after getting an RMA, but I don't think I could get much for it on E-bay. I've heard people...

    Dual-X vs. Vapor-X 7970

    Oh sorry, I was talking about OC'ed version of Sapphire. I think I'll just go with Sapphire since I've heard very good things about them. Thank you everyone for your help in choosing a GPU.

    Dual-X vs. Vapor-X 7970

    On Newegg it's only $290 as opposed to paying $320 for the Sapphire. What's better about it then the Sapphire?

    Dual-X vs. Vapor-X 7970

    Hello all, I just wanted to know which 7970 I should buy. I have an XFX Double D 7970 in this PC right now, but it started crapping out on me after a few weeks and now I get tons of artifacts in games. I don't really like manually overclocking, but if the Dual-X would be a better investment, I...

    GTX 770 or wait for AMD Hawaii

    Ok, so now it's down to getting a GTX 770 or a 7970 GHZ edition. If I get the 7970, the Sapphire would be a good choice right? What's the best GTX 770? I don't care about free games.

    GTX 770 or wait for AMD Hawaii

    Wow, so many answers for a thread I posted what, an hour ago? I think I'll grab a GTX 770 over the 7970. By the way, I have an FX-8350 so I don't think I'll even be able to use newer cards to their full potential (I'm talking about a GTX 780 and over.)

    GTX 770 or wait for AMD Hawaii

    Hello everyone! A couple of months back I got a Radeon 7970 and it's a beast card and all but it recently started crapping out on me. I started getting tons of artifacts in games (no it's not my PC, I tested in 4 other PCs.) Now I'd like to know if I should get a GTX 770 or wait for the new...
