  2. In the mind of Chugle: >Oh shit that guy just showed me decent evidence, my point is wrong! >Let's just say he is a fanboy, everything fanboys say is bullshit. Since when is he an AMD fanboy? He thinks that ONE SINGLE AMD chip is better than ONE SINGLE Intel chip, therefore he is a fanboy? He uses an I7 4790K in his own build... Your logic is making me doubt humanity.
  3. What @Prysin said. Also overclocked chips will be hotter, I don't give a flying horseshit how low Intel TDPs are, overclocking with higher voltages WILL kill the CPU quicker. hmmm, what if I was playing a game with my friend and we were talking? genius... Also chrome is for like background YouTube music/noise.
  4. Firstly, what if someone lives in Africa/Australia and the stock cooler gets too high temps? Also, overclocked, not very well cooled chips will die a lot quicker than not overclocked adequately cooked chips. Also have to factor in decent case airflow, which by the way is hard to come by in budget builds, and the fact that Intel Stock Coolers are OBNOXIOUSLY loud. I have an I3 4150. Even with hyper threading, I am at 98% usage with Chrome, Skype, and Minecraft. That is LIGHT multitasking and I am there, and remember Minecraft is single-threaded so it does not even occupy all cores.
  5. Just because people HAVE doesn't mean everyone can. Silicon Lottery and ambient temperature. The G3258 is a weak chip. 2 core 3.2Ghz. Pretty much impossible to multitask with or do anything more than 1-2 threaded. Yes, if OCed the G3258 is better in games when Overclocked, but no one buys a computer solely for games. Want a YT vid open in the background, Skype on, and a game? Nope. Not happening. As in I have an I3 and can do that with 98% usage.
  6. IF you overclock the G3258. Which you cannot do on the motherboard you provided, and there is also no CPU cooler. And the Athlon can multitask better. The G3258 only beats the Athlon at a very high OC. Other than that it is a pathetic CPU tbh.
  7. EDIT: Ninja'ed by @Minibois lol
  8. No. Gaming RARELY utilises more than 4 threads, and the much highe clock speed on your overclock I5 will benefit you more than hyperthreading. Not to mention the small, what, 10% performance improvement between generations.
  9. Make sure the GPU is properly plugged in, all the PCIe power connectors are plugged, and that the PSU switch is on. Otherwise it MIGHT be a DOA GPU.
  10. What is wrong with the H440? Just curious.
  11. Add sugar on top and enjoy. Yum yum.
  12. Microsoft does not give a flying shit about pirates.
  13. That post will not be getting updated any more, within the next couple of days I am going to completely rewrite it, there were a few major flaws with it.
  14. That is still about $20 cad less than the UK after 20% VAT...
  15. Reddit and G2A are both decent places to get Windows, anyways upgrade a pirated Windows 7/8 to 10 and it is not pirated! Also please stop using caps and exclamation marks, other than making you look like an 8 year old, it is really annoying...
