FX CPU?

Now redownload the 400GB of anime I had and 250GB of games on a 30mbit down internet.

 

Get a 3.0 usb external HD for backups.

[sgloux3470]

Hardly

 

I would do it because by internet is stupid fast and I can redownload EVERYTHING in a few hours but the methods I proposed are so much better and not half as hard as you think to pull off

In the age of SSD boot drives, it takes me about 15-20 minutes to go from a fresh install back to where I was. (And most of that is windows updates.)

 

If you're running windows on a storage HDD, you're gonna have a bad time.

An SSD will not increase the rate at which I redownload my anime

How is that relevant? ArchAngel is a clearly talking about downloading files from the internet not the reinstallation of windows on to a HDD.

An ssd will clearly not increase the speed of one internet download.

Irrelevant.

You can remove all motherboard drivers, etc and just keep going after the switch (Some things MIGHT need a reinstall but that's about it)

 

Or there was another technique (Don't know the exact name) where you sort of semi-reinstall it to adapt to the new motherboard without losing any data.

I tried the first method when i switched from my FX-8320 to i5-2500K and got BSOD during windows startup. I tried multiple other things as well but the best i got was windows hanging on the logo during startup.

No, but my point is that you put windows on a smaller SSD and keep your anime on separate harddrive, which won't be affected by the reinstallation of windows.

 

Don't put your anime on your boot drive.

That's weird, I've done the first method 3 times now and they all succeeded without a single issue

Don't put your anime on your boot drive.

If I have a 1 TB SSD because I don't want an HDD then that will happen. Also some people have 250/500GB SSD's and put games on there which can easily amount to 200GB which will take quite a while if you have slow internet

This

 

So much this

 

I did this method twice now and it works like a charm

I was thinking on change my 6300 for one 8370 it will worth it?

for gaming? No--just save up for an i5/i7. For editing on s tight budget, sure

it was for gamming.

Not hugely.  It'd be about the same as overclocking the 6300 to a comparable clockspeed in a lot of games.  If you're not overclocked.... it might be worth it.  I'd suggest sticking with the 6300.

Thanks man, i will put my 6300 on 4.5~4.7 and let it roll!

 

 

 

BUT i cant run DOTA 2 all max with v-sync, it always dropping frames on my pc-2. If i oc my 6300 can i run with a locked 60 fps??

 

My PC-2 is not that bad.

Depends more on your GPU than your CPU.

I cant belive that a GTX 760 AMP edition can't play DOTA 2

In this case I'm inclined to think the issue is something else because people with similar hardware are pushing much higher framerates than 60.

Stick with the FX 6300, get a decent cooler (Hyper 212 Evo, Corsair Seidon 120V/M/XL), overclock it as high as you can as the FX 8xxx series offers only a  relatively small increase in performance. If you ever have enough money and want to upgrade an i5 4440 will do everything without costing too much (subject to change of course).

I agree , get a decent cooler and oc that baby to 4.6 ghz+.

FX cpus oc very well , on cpu z validator the world record of OC is for the 8350.

The 8370 took the crown. (being a higher binned 8350.)

The 8350 was also with 6 of the cores disabled, while the 8370 was with everything enabled.

Aaannndd that's only 410MHz higher than the record set by  the Pentium 4 around about 2005.

Damn, I'm behind the times.

Weird, while the 8350 was only 2 cores I saw a lot of articles late last year saying the 8370 took the record.

yeah! they even said at that speed it was almost as fast as a core i3-4130 when playing DOTA2 and Planetside 2
