The motherboards in question are This vs This.
Ithought since this an overclocking question, it should be in the cpu section, but if im mistaken then iwould be thankful if a mod, replace the theard in the motherboard section.
Hey there,
I'm helping a friend building a 2500k pc, but he's kind on a budget. my question is how much will a 4pin motherboard(which is cheaper) limit the 2500k overclock? can he hit 4.5Ghz safely? or for that overclock he should be looking at a 8pin motherboard which is more expensive?
Well what the hell I'll just spend the extra cash for a 2500k+p67 board and be done with it. should serv me right for the next 3-4 years.
Thanks folks for your input.
Thing is that idont overclock, and power/heat do matter for me, so thats why iwas looking at them @ stock speeds.
Whats the diffrence between the 2100 vs 2120?
Thats an Unlocked Dual Core? when will it be released? would I get that cpu+z68 for 200$?
Thats a sweet Deal! but VirtualLarry just started another problem for me, should I wait for that 2120k?
Iwould like to stick with intel, Ididn't own an AMD system sincs the 1st AthlonXP's, Microcenter is like 15 min with car. I've checked anandtech bench and its seems that the core i3 2100 is trading blows with the Q9550 so it would be a fair boost from my E5200. the only dilemma is Old 775 fast...
Hey there, so looking to upgrade my E5200 processor its getting somehow limited in most games. what do you people think should I upgrade it to? the Q9550 or get my self a core i3 2100 + H67 board+ Cheap DDR3 RAM? im not an overclocker guru and I'd like to spend no more then 200$ on this upgrade...
Hey there!
So I'm a poor old man that looking to upgrade his existing 5 year old GPU (7900GS) to play some newer games, whats the best GPU out there that is not an overkill for my 19" monitor? im not a hard pro gamer just looking to play some games after work fps, rts games.
spec's are:
