  1. I have a small room I would really like the zotac PC!
  2. I would like the keyboard since I never owned a mechanical one!
  3. Hi, For this question i need a technical\engineering answer. Why are there multiple cables carrying the same voltage? Since they are wired in parallel both in the psu and in the motherboard (i checked with a volt-meter) it should suffice one cable per voltage (+ ground). I get that some PSU have multiple rails on 12v for protecting against failures but for example the MotherBoard 20+4 pin connector is usually wired on a single rail and yet it has many wires with the same voltage. I'm referring to ATX PSUs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_supply_unit_(computer). Thank you.
  4. Tried also with XMP profile (which automatically set the voltage to 1.65) but it didn't change anything.
  5. Thank you for your answer. The supported timings and voltages are attached (photos taken with pc frozen). On BIOS before it freezes i read that voltage is 1.5 and frequency something close to 1600 MHz.
  6. I just finished building my pc: CPU: A8-7650k RAM: GSKILL 8gb 2400mhz (2×4gb) MB: Gigabyte F2a88xm-d3h (rev 3.1) PSU: an old one Whenever I go into Bios after max 1 minute the pc freezes. Before freezing the cpu fan spins very fast and temperature rises fast from 50 to 60 °C (and than it freezes so I don't know if it goes any higher). If I boot into windows it works for a while but then it freezes as well. If I run memtest 5.01 the RAM pass all 11 tests and temperatures are about 25 °C. If I leave it running after a file (about 1 hour) it freezes as well. All components are new except for PSU. What i tried: - Using 2 different psu (both of them pretty old but working) - Using only one stick of RAM at a time in different slots - Unplugging everything except cpu ram psu and monitor - Updating BIOS to last version (F8) - Clear CMOS - BIOS on default settings Can you help me solving this problem? Thank you very much!
  7. According to this article Kaby Lake (Skylake's successor) will have GT4 graphics only on some CPUs (the lower end) http://www.techspot.com/news/61103-intel-10nm-cannonlake-delayed-replaced-14nm-kaby-lake.html
  8. Hi Guys, I've read in the past that Skylake's integrated GPU will be better than Broadwell ones. Does this applies also to Desktop CPUs (S series)? I'm asking this because according to Wikipedia Skylake desktop processor will have only GT2 graphic cards (HD 5xxx) instead of GT3e (Iris Pro 6XXX). Is this true? Will Intel release Skylake CPUs with GT3\GT4 in 2015? Thank you. source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skylake_(microarchitecture)
  9. Thank you! I'll wait then... (even if it's difficult to wait )
  10. Hi everybody! I want to build a new PC can you help me make a decision to buy it now or to wait for Skylake? I don't game a lot (just Tropico iterations), but i like fast PCs . For now I've in mind to build this pc (prices in € from Italian market): 90€ AMD A8-7600 70€ Any FM2+ MB with hdmi 70€ DDR3 2133 (2x4GB) RAM ---------------------------------------- 230€ TOTAL (I already own a decent case, psu and an ssd.) I'm not much concerned by price as much as price/quality ratio. So I'm thinking of waiting for Skylake release. Can you answer some questions of mine? 1. Will the skylake i5s (as i5-6600) include Iris Pro Graphics as good or better than Broadwel i5-5775c? 2. How much will 1151 motherboard cost upon (or shortly after) Skylake release? (for comparison: how much did they cost back with 1150 release?) 3. How much better will skylake i5s perform over A8-7600 in everyday office use? 4. If maybe in 3-4 years I'll decide to buy a discrete GPU in the 200€ range will it be bottlenecked by the A8? What about the i5? 5. Will the September release extend immediately to Europe (Italy)? (What happened to socket 1150 release?) 6. Are these prices realistic? 200€ Skylake I5 (not overclockable) 70€ Any 1151 MB 70€ DDR4 (2x4GB) RAM ---------------------------------------- 340€ TOTAL Than you guys and sorry for my English!
