    P67 motherboard

    Trying to pick a motherboard for my new 1155 build, and I have questions... 1. Should I go with Z68 instead of P67? There doesn't seem to be much difference to me. I will have a 40gb SSD that Windows will be on. I have a discrete graphics card. 2. What motherboard do you guys recommend...

    Nvidia 560ti vs some ATI

    I'm looking for a graphics card in the price range of a 560ti. Benches look pretty good for it. I play mostly RTS and FPS games. ATI and Nvidia are very competitive when it comes to FPS, but from what I've seen Nvidia has the definite edge in RTS games. Whats the best solution for $250...

    upgrade to q9650 or 2500k

    I currently have an e8400, but would like to upgrade as my processor is a bottleneck in games like BF:BC2 and Empire: Total War. Should I upgrade to a C2Q or a SB and a new mobo? If I just get a new CPU I would maybe have enough money left to buy a 560ti. Please fire away with insults and...

    Computer Cleaning Failure

    if your computer was unplugged at the time, then it is impossible to have fried anything. Do what the people above me said and reseat your memory, graphics, card, and any connections (power connection to graphics card, motherboard, etc).

    $3k Adobe CS5/C4D/Maya + Starcraft 2 work/gaming system, build opinions.

    I would go with this power supply http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139005 520W may be enough for some power supply calculators, but Newegg.com's power calculator recommended at least 650W. If you ever want to get another 570 and run SLI, you would need at least 1000W. I would...
