    SoftenButterCream reacted to Nonco in Dell XPS 13 Question!   
    Ive been looking into the same kinda stuff lately.
     
    I love the XPS 13 but it wouldnt be able to handle much gaming. It could play games, it would just be on low settings, maybe medium, but its not a graphics powerhouse unfortunately

    First, just because the OP used a hardware combination you wouldn't, doesn't make it a stupid build. 
     
    Second, the OP already stated (several times) that he happened to have these parts in his possession and decided to use them together for the sake of experimentation and curiosity. The 7850K / 860K is a respectable quad-core CPU and not nearly as bad as many people think they are or make them out to be. Let's be real; they're certainly not i5's, but they can hold their own in gaming just fine.
     
    Next time, please read the OP's comments more carefully. Thanks.

    First to the OP: Great  build.  I've modded that case heavily myself and it is a joy to work with.  
     
     
    To some of the other members here:  This was my first visit here.  I like this place very much, it seems to be active, well maintained and organized and has some features I've not seen elsewhere.  Plus, it's not Facebook which is always good.
     
    I have to say though, walking into my first build post and seeing the negativity being thrown at it right from the start is disgusting.
     
     
    Who cares if it's "not overkill"?  It's a NAME and it's his build.  Let him name it Little Bo Peep if he wants.
     
     
     
     
    The stupidity in this comment speaks for itself.  
     
     
     
    Again with harping on the name, and taking the opportunity to bash the guy's choice of hardware at the same time.
     
     
     
    So was he, and he's not alone.  Showing his opinion of you by calling you a dumbass.  Just like one of the above comments called the build stupid "just like that".  Opinions only allowed if they're not about you?
     
     
     
    Yep.  There's enough bullshit going on pretty much everywhere else without seeing it in what I would have thought would be a more supportive community.  
     
     
     
    THIS.  See this, guys?  This is how you put together a constructive cohesive thought.  This is how you keep people coming back to your little corner of the Internet, by suggesting something else if you disagree with it or pointing out what you would do differently.  Thanks, ErickS89.
     
    I've been in different PC and modding communities online for many years now and I've got to say this is the worst treatment of a new post I've seen.  This guy's project got called "stupid" within THREE MINUTES of posting.  I don't know the guy, but he's a bigger man than I to even come back and deal with you pricks.  
     
    Life is too short.  Someday you'll see that.

    SoftenButterCream reacted to Hieb in highest graphic for 860k?   
    Most people don't get past ~4.5GHz anyways. But yeah, I suspect that the Athlon 860K is still cache limited (in terms of how the CPU affects frame latency) much like the FX CPUs are. Overclocking doesn't provide very substantial in-game improvements in most games with AMD's Bulldozer family chips.
