I ran the Battlefield 4 Beta on Windows 7 64-bit (DirectX 11.0) and Windows 8 64-bit (DirectX 11.1) and I can confirm that DirectX 11.1 DOES provide very noticeable benefits both in frame rates and lower stutter, etc. It felt like my processor was simply being used more efficiently. I was...

Yea that's what I said. Now I have it maxed out every month. Credit is a corporate offer of enslavement. As one author puts it, "Credit is for poor people". Isn't it ironic that a card that makes you financially enslaved is called "Freedom". LOL Freedom my ***

Not smokin' but if you've got a white case and want to run SLI 580's.... :whiste: 1kW, modular, white!, single 83amp 12V rail, 3x6pin 3x6+2pin, 80 plus Gold, free shipping. I am tempted to sell my unused Corsair HX850 and pick up one of these instead for my white phantom...

I expect it will. I had thought this and was glad I have bought both my hyperx 120's for 165ea.

In regards to the 40 lanes providing 16x,16x,8x in Tri SLI.... Remember, that's pcie 3.0 at 8GT/sec natively, not 5GT/sec in 2.0, so that's more like 25.6x, 25.6x, 12.8x in pcie 2.0 terms, theoretically. Even 8x 3.0 is more like 16x 2.0. In other words, there is not a card out now that...

You sell them by word-of-headset to all your other lazy, bum, mindless, jobless, wannabe-rich, loser friends who you've met online over the last 10 years of living in the sea of dirty laundry that is your mother's basement. Wait, wait... I got a better one.... Let's make a GTAV video game...

Exactly. I would never buy this board, simply because of that idiotic heatsink. Plastic bullets? What am I 9 years old? And on another note... I'm a hardware enthusiast with 3 grand burning a hole in my pocket and I'm still not gonna spend $1,000 on a stinkin MB/CPU combo. I mean, yes, I could...

Yes indeed. Thank you college economics! And this is a prime example of why Monopolies are great for business but bad for consumers, not that Newegg is necessarily a monopoly. Remember this the next time you wish doom on AMD and root for Intel. If AMD loses their competitive edge, Intel can...

Predatory lending in all it's filthiness. Just go try and buy a car with $10,000 cash and you'll see what I'm talking about. You'll get "re-directed" by most used car lots. People forget that Finacial "Services" are often just offers of enslavement. "PLEEAASE borrow from me now so you can owe...

not bad but I got both of mine for $165each during a NCIX sale. Just waiting to see LGA 2011 performance.

I only see good news. When did I become accustom to paying 3-400 for a home PC processor. Personally Im rooting for AMD to compete just to drive down Intel pricess, which I actually buy at this point.

Here's my semi-educated guess: The mass of the moon is 7.36*10^22 kg. It is traveling orbitally around the earth at 1023meters/sec. Thats a momentum of 7.5*10^25 kg*m/s. With the gravitational pull of the earth on the moon and vice versa, the seas are phsically pulled around the earth...

Ive found that patience and self-control in purchasing hardware go a long way... the longer you can wait, the better deals you'll find. Here's my hardware outlook: ... in the next 3months and with a responsible budget: cpu: i7 2600K or bulldozer or i5 2500k ($150 onsale at Fry's &...

HOW-TO: CPU Cooler Clearance (ex Intel Core i7 2600k) 1. Measure from your Motherboard tray to the side panel or fan. (This is often called the CPU clearance by case manufacturers and is typically between 150-250mm) 2. Measure from your Motherboard tray to the back side of the motherboard...
