    That shouldn't stop you from upgrading. You'll still see massive improvements and the cpu won't be holding it back by any noticeable amount

    Because it does have 2tb but it has to reserve some of it to operate and do stuff

    Not at all what I was implying and Amd has some decent chips... What my point was, was that 80 percent of the posts I see are people asking "should I buy (insert current gen component here)  or wait until (insert next gen component here) releases?!" if you wait, you'll be waiting forever. This happened with Sandy bridge, the 900 series cards, haswell, the haswell refresh, and it's happening now with the new cards and processors. It's marketing. Accept that you'll never have the best of the best for more than a few months and go with your gut and buy what you can afford

    If it's capable of doing what you need then does it matter? Half the people on here are ignorant and will "advise"  someone to not get a better gpu because it will "bottleneck"

    Yeah Ebay works, so does craigslist etc. Keep in mind ebay will have more meaning that market is more competetive than craigslist or the classifieds section here or reddit's hardware swap. Just look at what theyre selling for where you post it and stick pretty close to that

    OPskins is probably the most reliable as there is a verified business as the middleman. Avoiding dealing with people online looking to scam you or chargeback

    i dont know how much of a "baller" dual cpu it willbe these CPU are mostly 4 core and no hyperthreading so 4 cores is 4 cores. so it would be no better having 2 of them it would be the same as an i7

    no problem. 
     
    Yea i totally agree if you want some dual CPUs stuff make it easier check this out , it will be easier if you were in the US to ship but the advantage is that most have ram but you might not be able to get multiple graphics cards in the machines

    thatguyyouknow75 got a reaction from Flowey in Intel or AMD? (english essay)   
    The issue though is that he's comparing 3-5 year old processors to ones that came out this year. No shit ones going to be better. Compare them back in 2000 when there was a huge spike in computers and technological breakthroughs or compare their gpus. Your current topic is flawed

    thatguyyouknow75 got a reaction from YongKang in A thought on SLI and Crossfire   
    Yeah, I ran at 5760x1080 for a while on one, and it did it but wasn't always smooth. With two it was incredibly smooth and had consistent high framerate. Rn I'm running a 1440p 144hz monitor and have zero stutters. I don't do much productivity, but for games 2 970s outperforms 980tis titans all of it. And never have i run into any issues with vram, thats all a load of bs

    thatguyyouknow75 got a reaction from JBIZZL3Y in Why is counter Strike so popular?   
    yes....and you asked about counter strike. There are round economics, timing, rotation, faking, not just recoil control but actually knowing the spray pattern, and you cant just hop in and do well like you can in battlefield, you have to learn the mechanics and be able to work with your team in order to rank up. Battlefield is a lot more of a passive game you can just chill out and enjoy, if you arent focused you wont enjoy csgo

    thatguyyouknow75 got a reaction from JBIZZL3Y in Why is counter Strike so popular?   
    YES, or the tingling you get in your balls when you ace/clutch can only be rivaled by strangling a man and feeling his last breath escape from his now lifeless corpse
    EDIT: i mean its a good game....

    ones fast small and expensive, the other is large cheap and slower. get a small ssd for your OS and then a 1tb hdd for everything else. the prices are dropping so its easier to get both
