    Jams4551 got a reaction from kpreg in Windows 10 will include junkware - the cost of free   
    Can the Pro version please not come with these "free" apps since we paid premium in the first place?

    Jams4551 reacted to Jack.EXE in I am tired of everyone claiming "6 cores do nothing for games," and tired of hearing "you only need 8 gigs of ram."   
    Seriously guys, shut up.
     
    I popped in my x6, and immediately saw higher FPS in planetside 2, Garry's mod, CS:GO, and Crysis when compared to my x4 at the same clock speed. (both are @ 4Ghz)
     
    As for ram? I dont know about you, but I was constantly getting low memory messages with 8 gigs, and I've since installed 4 more.
     
    The point is, These things do help.
     
    so quit your preaching that "You only need a 4 core, and 8 gigs is more than enough," until you try a 6 core, with more than 8 gigs of ram.
     
    thank you.

    Is this how they plan to keep their consoles running well in the future? By unlocking cores as time goes on?

    Jams4551 got a reaction from 7850OC in Should I Go AMD or Intel   
    So I want to build a pc for the first time and I was wondering AMD or Intel. I would like to do some video editing, gaming, and live streaming (Mainly gaming because that is what I am video editing). My budget is 1100 US Dollars or less. I have started on pcpartpicker with an AMD and an Intel build. I also have to decide whether or not to do AMD graphics or NVIDIA. I also want the iGPU to help with game streaming but if AMD makes something similar I am fine. Thanks in advance for any help!

    For that i budget i'd go with Intel (which is a beast in high end market), and an AMD GPU (unless you absolutely need stuff like Shadowplay and PhysX).
     
    AMD GPU's usually have more "bang for buck", so it's rather good
     
    So, like many said, go with I5 and 290/290x It'll be a good combo

    Jams4551 reacted to LinusTech in Intel - "Talk to the Product Marketing Engineer" Live Chat & Giveaway   
    So what is this?
     

    This is a very rare opportunity to do a LIVE Q&A session with one of the folks who worked on the Devil's Canyon (Haswell K Refresh) line of CPUs from Intel. He and I have connected already briefly and aside from trade secrets, you guys are welcome to ask any questions you want about the product, the development cycle, and what it's like behind the scenes working on an important product like this at Intel!

     

    Darrin Lynch, Product Marketing Engineer for Intel will be joining us for a Q&A and suggestion session on June 26, 2014 at 11am Pacific time
     
    Click here to find out what time it is in your time zone
     
    This will be a great opportunity to talk about your ideas, ask questions, and give feedback on this exciting new product. 
     
    Not only that, but we'll be giving away TWO Intel Devil's Canyon CPUs on the show... Because Intel is sending me the CPUs and putting me in charge of shipping the prizes, the giveaway will be INTERNATIONAL.
     
    It will be streamed at http://twitch.tv/linustech, and the giveaway we're running is for LIVE VIEWERS ONLY.
     
    The main topic of the stream is basically up to you guys and I'd love to see you post your ideas in this thread ahead of time so we can figure out how to structure this to make it as entertaining and educational as possible!
     
    I want this to be a lot of fun and super interactive, so please post your ideas in this forum thread. I will definitely be taking more suggestions during the show as well, but it's great to have a starting point.. Folks who post in the thread versus trying to get their questions featured live *will* have a bit of an advantage!
     
    How do I win the swag?
     
    The winner will be chosen randomly from the live viewers of the stream during a random period, so make sure you're paying attention!
     
    Make sure you're registered for Linus Tech Tips forum and signed in while you're watching the live stream Make sure you're watching from somewhere that you'll have access to a browser Tune into the stream right at the beginning and make sure you're paying attention!
