    Will they release R9 290X with a non-stock fan

    Why do they even make them? Especially with cards that are above $500 everyone can afford to pay 40 - 50 bucks to get a card with a proper silent cooler. Not that ugly noisy brick.

    Will they release R9 290X with a non-stock fan

    Really? I mean my experience with 4870X2 back 5 years ago which had pretty much the same cooler (visually) was freaking noisy in idle. During full load I could not hear myself speaking almost.

    Will they release R9 290X with a non-stock fan

    Hello, the stock coller is the only thing that bothers me about the new R9 290X. I experienced this kind of fan with old Radeon HD4870X2 and it was a nightmare. Do you think someone might release this GPU with a 2 or 3 fan cooler such as R9 280X Toxic card has. I guess there will be...

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    Yes I am. I saw a benchmark (dont remember the link anymore) that compared Core i7 4770K and Core i5 4670K quite thoroughly throughout several games and the 4670K was at 98% gaming performance of 4770K. Thats a great result for being 150 dollars cheaper.

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    Yup. How about cooling those cards? Do I need a special case with a fan on each available side or can a use a simpler one (and quiter one which is important for me) that has one fan in front and one in the back by default? I am talking about BITFENIX Ronin This case has 4 additional...

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    With a few cuts here and there I am beginning to feel more comfortable going for the R9 290X or the GTX 780 whichever benchmarks better.

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    Yup I was just checking out the i5 4670K. So the major difference to i7 is the hyper threading right? And is it true that games dont really advantage from hyper threading? Thx for the advice on MoBo btw

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    I see. Well I didnt know that. Its always nice to save a buck. I will take a look at the Core i5. Any in particular I shoud check out? For now I was going to go with Core i7 4770K so I would like to choose something of similar grade...

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    I dunno. 5 years back I got Core i7 920 clocked at 2.66ghz and I kind of regreted that decision because it felt that the CPU was bottlenecking my Radeon HD4870X2. Reason was to safe money. I dont wanna go that way again. Core i5 might save me up to 150 dollars however the leap between R9280X...

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    Oh wait its the other way around. For some reason 4820K is Ivy Bridge 4770K is Haswell

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    I see, well I got confused over the architecture used in those CPUs. I though the 4770K is going to be slower since its built on an Ivy Bridge architecture.

    Is Radeon R9 290x worth double in price than R9 280x

    GTX 780 has an extremely high price and so will R9 290X apparently :D

    Does Core i7 4820K outperform Core i7 4770K

    Hopefully this question is not dumb because obviously 4820K is a greater number than 4770K and according to some benchmarks it actually does outperform it. What confuses me is that Core i7 4770K is built using newest Haswell architecture while Core i7 4820K is built still on Ivy Bridge...

    Is Radeon R9 290x worth double in price than R9 280x

    With your price I would buy 2 of them :) How do you cut the price so low?

    Is Radeon R9 290x worth double in price than R9 280x

    Yup I have my eye on the Toxic edition card. Especially the 6400Ghz memory clock is attractive.
