Keeping up with Jones is real. I want to drop my whole tax return on a new rig because of you nikkas.

U don't need the latest and greatest. What u looking for?

Wait for broadwell e in the next few months. 10 core 6950X, 8 core 6900K, 6 core 6850K, 6 core 6800K. 4 i7 skus.

Not worth selling my 5960X to get the 10 core. But I am intrigued about the two 6 cores. I hope one of em will the full 40 lanes.

Nice. That'll be good in the spring.

Everytime I'm ready to upgrade, I get lost in the "Wait for the new chipset" talk and a year passes by.

Time to upgrade. This is what I got now. I'm going to keep the RAM but what should I ? I want to spend around $500.

Intel Core i5 2400 @ 3.10GHz

8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 668MHz (9-9-9-24)

ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. P8Z77-V LK (LGA1155)

Brehs, my gaming PC is starting to show its age wondering which video card I should upgrade to. I have a couple of games I can't really max for 60 FPS.

I got 680 2GB, 3570K @ 4.7, 16 Gb RAM, 1080p display

Which video card should I get? Don't want to spend over 350 Max

Probably an nvidia 970. A lot of people on the board have that card and love it

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

both the 960 and 970 are piff...

I would be upgrading but I don't play over 1080p and my 780 kills everything I play at that resolution...
