    Hello guys, I just received the processor I bought from China. Finally it was the x5675 (I got it for 65€, so 20€ less than expected). The thing is that it came with a sticker or something in the back: http://imgur.com/a/C2JfZ I don't know if it will work like that. I've tried to remove the...

    The nzxt x41 was 98€ new, but it is not longer available. Now I'm going for a x42 at 118€. The thing about the cooler is that I cannot fit a double fan in the front of my case, and the NZXT is the best single fan water cooler hands down (acording to benchmarks). I know it is not the best value...

    Ye I guessed that, but I saw some 970 owners say that it was better than the 1060, so I wanted to make sure. The 480 I'm not considering because the 1060 show better benchmarks, or at least that's what I saw.

    I only bought the RAM for the moment, and considering how good it is (2000mhz 8-8-8-24-2t), I think I made a pretty good deal for 105€ (120€ with the shipment). Next in the list are: GPU, Cooler and SSD; all components that can be ported to a newer system (hopefully the cooler will). I'll wait a...

    Well, I managed to get my hands on two 3x2gb kits of CMG6GX3M3A2000C8 for 105€. I readed this: "we do not support or suggest mixing sets even if they are the same part number. Not to mention that 6 sticks at 2000 MHz is a lot of electrical load on a memory controller and most aren't capable of...

    Sry for the bump, but I can now have the Asus x99 Deluxe + i7 5820K + Noctua NH D14 + DDR4 RAM for 640€ (maybe I can push it to 610-620€) Time to read again and see how good the Asus mobo is, for future upgrades (or if you just know, you could also tell me and save all the night xD). It's a...

    Nice, it looks like a perfect upgrade for my i7 950.

    The problem with shipping from the US are the taxes. I recently ordered some sports gear, it was 300€; when the guy from UPS came to my door, he told me I had to pay 100€ more. So no more buying things from the US I guess.

    I had 6gb. 1 stick broke and now I have 4gb. Now I have to decide if I upgrade my i7 950 to a x5675 and buy 16gb DDR3 RAM or upgrade to a newer system with DDR4 RAM. I basically wanna play CSGO, Overwatch, Paladins, Dota, LoL, WoW and some other random games at 120fps (OW is capped to 60fps I...

    https://es.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-xeon-x5675.html From there. 82€ but almost 1 month of wait. The thing is that I have no clue of what to do. I have a sentimental attachement for my pc, but I do want the best deal I can get. The thing is: 550€ for the x5675 setup or 950€ for the i7 5820k...
