1 NUC please!

ZOTAC made something powerful look even more powerful, its just screams EXTREME BEAST!

How i found Linus Tech Tips? I was browsing tech videos about some kinda tech and then came a cross Linus tech tips video and instantly subscribed, I joined forum because I needed help with my gaming PC build. Love the channel content!

Hey, I would like to know how important is Intel® TSX-NI (Intel® Transactional Synchronization Extensions New Instructions (Intel® TSX-NI) are a set of instructions focused on multi-threaded performance scaling. This technology helps make parallel operations more efficient via improved control of locks in software.) And does someone know, what I would gain if i spend 60 euros more and get intel CPU?

Does i5 4440 stock cooler is loud? I just want cut expenses.

I need better board because of chipset? cheapest b85 chipset board MSI B85M-P33 41.86 €, Gigabyte GA-B85M-D2V 49.62 €

Like Gigabyte GA-B85M-HD3 54.26 € (http://www.1a.lv/datoru_komponentes/pamatplates/filter/281-15528:283-39972) ?

What about Gigabyte GF GTX760 2GB GDDR5 PCIE GV-N760WF2OC-2GD ? It's at same price. Shop: http://www.1a.lv/datoru_komponentes/videokartes/14 BTW: CPU AMD FX6300

Thanks! I will go with Raider, because of 80 PLUS® Silver and 550W will give me some headroom. I do not think i need play extra for modularity, because I will use ATX case, so I will have place to put cables.

@rhyseyness @WoodenMarker PC build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Qc6w7P except RAM: 2x KINGSTON 4GB PC12800 DDR3 CL9 HYPERX BLU KHX1600C9D3B1/4G shop: http://www.1a.lv/dat...arosanas_bloki/ (only in Latvian language) budget for PSU: max 70 euro, but i want spend money as less as posible List: Motherboard ATX: MSI 970A-G43 54.68 € CPU: AMD FX-6300 99.76 € CPU Cooler: COOLER MASTER HYPER 212 EVO UNIVERSAL COOLER RR-212E-16PK-R1 27.23 € GPU: Gigabyte AMD/ATI Radeon R9 280 3GB GDDR5 PCIE GV-R928WF3OC-3GD 209.48 € RAM: KINGSTON 4GB PC12800 DDR3 CL9 HYPERX BLU KHX1600C9D3B1/4G 36.57 € x2 SSD: Samsung SSD 840 EVO 120GB SATAIII MZ-7TE120BW 73.61 € HDD: I have from my old PC. In case are 5 ventilators (ZALMAN MIDI TOWER Z3 PLUS 34.95 €)

btw, why in psu calculators there is no 280 but only 280x?

PC build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Qc6w7P Estimated Wattage: 440W RAM: 2x KINGSTON 4GB PC12800 DDR3 CL9 HYPERX BLU KHX1600C9D3B1/4G

Thanks! Then I will go for 280.

BTW in PSU calculator power usage is 440W, 500w supply will be OK? or better use 550W?
