I finally added an SSD after the Toshiba HDD started dying. GA-Z77X-D3H i7 3770 16GB DDR3 1600 R9 380 2GB Samsung 850 evo 500GB Next...
I don't care if it's Nvidia or AMD, I just want the best value. Only running 1080. I'll look at more powerful cards. I'd love a 1070 but...
That bad huh?
I've got an Asus R9 380, just a 2gb one. I was thinking of adding a second one, can get them for $255 from MSY. Stock levels look to be getting...
I'm not sure how much it would affect gaming but an i7 3770 or something like that would be a better fit for a 1080 I thought? Heres mine: I'm...
I never find it bad here but I've always hated their prices. Chicken Schnitzel isn't bad.
Turns out I couldn't wait, I put together an upgrade with used parts. GA-B75-D3H, annoying non OC-ing nugget but has USB3 and SATA3. For some...
I ended up getting another matching 8gb kit on ebay for $30 or so from memory. Can't say I notice the difference either but for the money having...
Keen as a bean.

Putting together an upgrade from some used bits. I've bought an i5 2400, planning to fit a GTX960 or 970. Will play a variety of games and...
Thanks for all the advice. Used i5 or i7, preferably Haswell 16gb DDR4 kit at whatever speed, doesn't matter for overclocking anymore?...
It'll be nice if 970s drop to that sort of price but I wont hold my breath. I very rarely see used hardware advertised for reasonable prices....
Havabeer it is a quad core. That's what the Q always stood for I thought. I need a new main board no matter what CPU I go for, so that makes...
Smash some ice cream with them too :D
Final edit, its a Q9400. Perhaps tommorow I'll fare better after a sleep. So final spec for this system will be Q9400, 8gb and HD6970. Any more...
If it does come out around 300 AUS I'll be interested and I'm sure I won't be alone.
Yeah I just added the 9400 with the new(er) mainboard. Had a Q6600 up until then. Original system had a Gigabyte P35 mainboard, Q6600, 2gb...
Thanks for sharing and amazing work on the site. Currently browsing through old PCPP issues. :thumbup:
Nice work and great read, I smiled all the way through. I remember as a kid around 2000 getting my own system. Was a 486 DX2 66, ended up...
