    **OFFICIAL** Diablo 3 Thread

    At the moment I'm farming act 1 Inferno (I managed to finish act 2) with a 2 hander and no defensive skills. My plan is to farm a few million gold and do act 2 with dual wielding LoH weapons :D. I saw the other day a barb like that and he had virtually no problem with Belial 3 man (with me and a...

    Actually you can choose to keep your 2 hander. I've seen a barbarian that had close to 100k dps with a 2 hand weapon, but he invested in attack speed and life per hit + life steal. The problem you have to face as a barb is that you are always in the middle of the fight without any healing. The...

    I see your point. Now try to explain to them what resist all does :D

    **OFFICIAL** Diablo 3 Thread

    Its like that because the barbarian as opposed to the monk does not heal. So you either go tank with 900 res or you take a 2 hander, stack attack speed and strenght and go guns blazing hoping that everything is dead until you get killed. I chose to go tanky and take as many enemies at once. I...

    **OFFICIAL** Diablo 3 Thread

    You are wrong. People get one shot because they don't realise what the good stats are for Inferno. The stat priority should be for a barb: All resist >>> Vitality > Strenght > .... Get to 30K HP with ~ 900 All Resist + 1 hand good Life on Hit weapon and you are almost Immortal in act 1-2. In...

    **OFFICIAL** Diablo 3 Thread

    I highlighted your problem. 250 res is crap. I roll with a 25k HP, 7k armor, 700 all resist (without buff) barb and at the moment I farm act 1 Inferno. I faceroll everything there at the moment. I have tried Act 2 and had no problem with the wasps. ATM I'm farming to replace 2 more pieces of...

    How can someone seriously say the graphics of Torch Light 2 are better than D3?

    Actually I think you are in the minority because most people who play D3 don't really visit AnandTech's forums (any forums for that matter), or take the time to write a response to some internet anonymous defending their game. I'm not like most people, I do play D3 at least 3 hours a day and I...

    How can someone seriously say the graphics of Torch Light 2 are better than D3?

    Honestly to me it looks like crap. Its not dark in any way and reminds me more of some cartoon. Diablo 3 its quite addicting, much more than Diablo 2 or 1. I really like the explosive spells, the physics, the armor, the look and feel in general. I have played every Blizzard major release to date...

    Need a new card

    A single 7850.

    Selecting a GPU

    +1. The best solution thus far. It will also last you more than a 570 and will also support a monitor resolution upgrade.

    [H] HD 7970 Dual-X Review

    Considering both of them are the highest end now from both companies, I really think they will last mostly anyone 2 generations. My last upgrade was the AMD 4870 from an nVidia 7600, so I know what you're saying.

    [H] HD 7970 Dual-X Review

    I really think the number of forums/forum threads discussing which card is the most powerful between the 680 and the 7970 has gone through the roof. Both of them are great cards and really top of the line from both companies and we stay here and fight for the 10% difference between them. That is...

    k|ngp|n Reaches 1958 MHz Core Clock With GeForce GTX 680

    They actually do it right. He uped the memory clock from 1502 to 3734. Considering its GDDR5 you multiply that with 4 to get the effective clock :)

    Tom's Hardware Graphics 2012 Benchmarking Methodology Explained

    Sure, sure... The quality of THG and their forums has become trash. The nVidia fanatics are roaring like crazy people there. I used to be a regular there, but I left when I saw the direction to which they were heading. I'm glad I see some other people from there though (Hi notty)
