    The 960 is a lot better than the R9 270. Do you mean R9 380?

    d0 it.
    Better than CX430, Seasonic, and cheap as fuck, even without MIR (which just using the promo code makes it out to $52).

    Fate got a reaction from Dabombinable in Intel i3 4160 or AMD fx 6300 ll stock vs stock ll Gaming   
    smh fam can you elaborate? If anything the i3 has a wider choice of games to choose from because FX runs (relatively) quite poorly on a few MMOs, FSX, Arma 3, DayZ, and many other games. 
     
     
    i5-4440/4460 are the best value, but i5-4690k is the best in terms of performance (excluding Skylake).

    Normally you wouldn't be able to tell the difference when getting fps above your monitor's refresh rate, but CS:GO is an exception. For some reason 300 fps is very noticeable from even 100-150 fps for many people.

    If you only play games like Skyrim, MMOs, etc, then it's okay. It's also a good stop-gap CPU if you need to wait a month or two to afford a 4690k/4790k and want the PC ASAP.

    Fate got a reaction from TechGod in So it looks like memory speed does matter when CPU bound   
    Are you being sarcastic? £30 for 8fps/10-15% performance gain is an amazing value. You get only 6% more performance going from a 390 to a 390x, and that's a $70 difference. A 970 to 980 is only a 12% difference on average.

    2GB vram is not really enough for high end gaming anymore, get a 390.

    If your primary need is to record video then I'd recommend getting a panasonic GH3 instead, it's similar in price but has much better video features.

    So long as you don't have a Allahu Akbar PSU that can't take more than 30*C *cough* CX *cough* then you're fine.

    Seems really sketchy. Unless he can put it in a system and run a benchmark and a stability test, I wouldn't mess with it.

    Even if it was perfectly optimized, it would still be stupid. Basic math tells us if i5 = FX8350, and i7 = FX8350, then i5 = i7. If the game was optimized in such a way, an i7 would perform significantly better than an i5.
