    Lucky bastard found a brand new asus 7970 platinum. Some warehouse was cleaning old stock and found a bunch of those. He got it with 100$. 
    As for the cpu, a g3258, not a bad one, but god damn does it hold that card back
    The ram is fine, he has a single stick of 8gb.

    Try a different genre or take a couple weeks break. Don't force yourself to lay just because you used to enjoy it.

    nanowatt reacted to Sunshine1868 in How does dual lan controller mb work?   
    You will not get higher bandwidth or higher speeds.
     
    The only way to achieve this would be to ensure the MB supports a link-aggregation protocol such as LACP. Doing this however requires that every device in the network that you want this larger bandwidth to "touch" ALSO supports LACP. Most consumer-grade hardware (switches, routers, etc.) DO NOT support link-aggregation in any way. So unless the ISP's device supports LACP and you are allowed to configure it, no, your bandwidth will not be any higher.
     
    As for what really happens: your Network Interface Cards (NICs) will simply be assigned 2 different IP addresses, one primary and one secondary. your PC will likely fail-over to the secondary if the primary fails.

    I dont believe it will give you larger bandwith, they will just show up as Local Area Connection #1, #2... Im not sure if you can team them together but I doubt it will be enabled by default.

    They use the same pin out and there's a bios that says it supports AM3 CPU's, go check the CPU support list for that specific board to see which ones will work.

    @nanowatt Out of interest do you happen to know the CPU that is currently in the computer? Depending on what it is you might be able to pick up a really good upgrade on ebay for very low cost, like an i7-860/i5-760.

    Well the issues you describe essentially have nothing to do with the speed of the SSD or that it is plugged in to a SATA 2 port, bar the opening of mozilla itself but even then I doubt the speed of disk access is the bottleneck.
     
    The bottleneck for the issues you describe is most likely the internet connection and/or the CPU in the computer. For general browsing and the initial loading of a youtube video the amount of bandwidth isn't the biggest factor, latency determines how snappy pages load. Also the ability for your CPU to process the page or video has a big effect on this. My really crap laptop that has an AMD E2-1800 CPU with a Samsung 850 Evo loads pages extremely slowly and is just generally crap, my desktop which is an i7-4930k on the same internet connection load pages MUCH faster.
     
    Also an Intel SATA 2 port will not limit the IOPS of an SSD that much, only it's throughput. On my Asus Rampage IV Black (X79) the ASMedia SATA 3 ports are slower than the Intel SATA 2 ports, by a significant amount too.
