    How large of PSU capacity do I need for AMD A10 7850K?

    Is there any benchmark or tests that indicate the i3 is much superior to 7850k, and if so, by how much? I thought that with more cache and more cores the 7850k would be a better performer. Also it has decent graphics so I can use it for gaming without a discrete graphics card at the moment.

    How large of PSU capacity do I need for AMD A10 7850K?

    I am building an mATX entry-level gaming desktop, and am wondering how much wattage do I need for the A10 7850K APU. It's thermal design power is 95 w, but I have seen typical power consumption as high as 130 w. I am looking to buy the CORSAIR CX series CX430 430W PSU. In it's specs it says...

    Is it viable and useful to run RAMDisk in my configuration? (4 RAM modules)

    I have 2 x 4 GB GSkill 1866MHz CL8 DDR3 and 2 x 8GB Corsair 1600MHz CL11 DDR3 memory modules. I bought the corsair ones when I built my machine: i7 4770K ASUS GTX 770 MSI MPOWER MAX. and realized that the memory modules I bought are kind of slow (CL11 @ 1600MHz). So I bought two extra 4GB...

    How much a difference would it make if I switch from 1600MHz C11 to 1866-2000MHz C8-9

    Thank you! I will. What Im gonna do is Im gonna turn all the settings to lowest setting possible, and gradually crank up each one of them to see which setting causes the most performance drop, and from there I can further investigate the problem. Also, if I have another set of RAM module, is it...

    Robax: Thank you for your advice. I once tried to turn the graphics settings all the way to low just to see if it gives me crazily high fps. As it turned out, the fps hardly changed, so I believe that it is a CPU-related issue, or network bottleneck. What resolution do you play on? I have it on...
