hi experts,
what RAM of 4 Gb or 8 GB per stick to get for z77?
What to look for when selecting RAM?
So far I see that RAM has to run at 1.5V due to Z77, so any OC RAM at 1.65+ will be out of scope. Is this correct?
What timing? CAS? etc are important?
I'm looking for performance...

based on those priorities:
1. low lag - 70% gaming;

hi all,
why there are not 4750 cards on sale - for less then $100.
looks like all of it gone somewhere
yes, new dx11 cards are coming soon, so I expected to get 4750 for HTPC for less
4770 for $130 is too high IMHO
what do you think?
Hi all,
So far I know those 4750 and 4770 will be based on new 40nm die.
The 4750 is based on 4830, but with faster GDDR5.
Then what would be 4770?
And when those will be avail?
