    FatPenguin got a reaction from Roll_Like_Rollo in Experiences with non-techies   
    my Grandma she went out and bought new laptop and she got totally ripped off. the guy at staples made her buy a I5 with 8 gb of ram (shes only gunna check emails and browse the web) we went back and returned it for a $200 toshiba with a pentium with 4 gb of ram. it works. the guy felt really bad for making her buy a $500 laptop that they gave us a $50 instore credit.
    My advice is to go computer shopping with your mom, dad , grandparents so they don't come home with a razer blade when all they need is a simple pc to check emails and stuff

    If you remember A while back linus painted one and he had an ass ache doing it. in my opinion, Leave it alone and sell it and get a new one.
    Hope I was able to help.

    That's suprising, considering the  cost necessary to design a whole new architecture and line of cards.

    no
    gtx10 launch prices will pretty much be identical to the 970 and 980 launch prices
    +-$50
    of course used 970s or 980tis will be cheaper though, but i mean if you have the money to get a 900 new, you may as well get a gtx1000 new

    FatPenguin reacted to minibois in What is benchmark   
    With a benchmark your system (or CPU, or GPU alone) will be stressed and it will see how well it can perform. How well it can perform is often said in either an fps amount or score, so you know how your parts stack up to other systems.
     
    Popular GPU benchmarks include 3DMark FireStrike and Unigene's Heaven and Valley benchmark.
    As for CPU, Cinebench is the most popular.
     
    Some games have benchmarks included as well, like Tomb Raider 2013, Metro Last Light and Bioshock Infinite
