I'm with you on that one, though I would actually consider pre-ordering to get the free monitor headphones.

I just came across this: http://www.dudeiwantthat.com/exclusives/cpu-wars-card-game.asp
 
It's basicly like pokemon I guess, just with CPU's instead. I don't really know as I've never played either.
 
Thought some of you might find it interresting.
 
 

Stick with the integrated if you aren't gonna game.

Hey there, I know, it aint much and high quality and stuff, but here's my little tutorial for my method of sleeving watercooling tube. If you do it, make sure to post some pics

"uptade iformation" should easily be enough to call the scam.

And that could also be arranged, though we have no showers.

Hi, everyone. I wasn't sure where to put this, but I can't make a new topic in the Linus' videos/ramblings/news forum, so here seemed like the next best place.
 
Basically, I watched this video 
here from Linus last night. In the video, I realized that Linus was misinformed by Gigabyte about the contents of the system. And in fact, Gigabyte is lying to everyone, because their sale page still has the incorrect information. Let me explain now. 
So... Gigabyte tells Linus (and everyone else) it's a GTX 760 video card. Linus THINKS it's a GTX 760. It's actually a GTX 870M. If you pause the video at 4:48-4:49 before he zooms in to show the throttled clock speeds, you can look at his GPU-Z screenshot of the card's specifications.

GTX 760 specifications: 1152 cores, 980 base/1033 boost clock, 6000MHz mem bandwidth, 256-bit mem bus, 2GB and 4GB vRAM configurations. Proof: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-760/specifications
GTX 870M: 1344 cores (check), 941 base (check)/967 boost (higher in video) clock, 5000MHz mem bandwidth (check), 192-bit mem bus (check), 3GB and 6GB configurations (check), downclocks as far down as 2D clocks when super hot (check). Proof: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gtx-870m/specifications
 
So basically, Gigabyte seriously took a GTX 870M, modified the vBIOS to boost its "boost" clock and return that it's a GTX 760, shoved it into that tiny thing without proper cooling, having it downclock on itself due to overheating, and is selling it to people as being a desktop GTX 760.
 
The reason the GTX 860M 2GB card works in the small PCs is because it's maxwell, not kepler, and runs exceedingly cool for its power. It does not need a whole lot of cooling, but the stronger mobile kepler cards (like 680M, 780M, 870M, 880M) need at least a decent cooling configuration to work, which this lacks, and thus Linus' testing overheated the card easily. As for the 870M's relative strength to desktop hardware, it *IS* a GTX 660Ti with 5000MHz memory clock instead of 6000MHz memory clock and more memory. 660Ti specs as proof: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-660ti/specifications

She can overclock.

In the box that it came in.

Here's some chill.
 

 
And
 

Thought I could shed some insight based off of my experience overclocking the Intel 4770K. I will add literature as I go.

I have based the guide off a simple 4.4GHz Overclock. Your results will Vary

Once you have finalized your overclock and have a valid screenshot for 8hours or more of stress testing post your results here This Database\Thread is Authored and maintained by @MeltyMoon. A highly regarded member of the LTT community. Thank You
 
(protip - run cinebench r15 before you begin stress testing with any unnecessary applications closed)
