Tell us how much can you spend and we will suggest a complete build for you. you could get a decent gaming computer for $800these days

Depends how much money you can spend. For total of $2500 you could get 6GB HD7950, You could get Core i7 clocked at 3.6 with 8 logical cores socket 2011, you could get up to 24GB of RAM, an additional 128GB SSD and a 850W power supply. It really depends how much money are you willing to...

The god of CPUs forgives you. -- I remember that long time ago I used to have AMD Athlon 1800+ I believe and it was quite a good CPU (single-core 1.53GHz). AMD seemed very powerful with their CPUs back in the 90s and early 00s. At least they found their league in GPUs. I think AMD is...

Really? So the low price of AMD CPUs is proportional to its low performance? Its weird that AMD produces such great GPUs but their CPUs are poorer.

Oh thats good because I would like to try someday the AMD CPU I specified at the top (or its future equivalent) I think its the most expensive one that my local shop sells and its still far cheaper than many Core i7s. The only thing that clashes in my mind now is the lack of support for...

So the AMD chip is not that recommended right for gaming? Why do they sell it and who uses it then?

Hello, I just noticed that AMD has some very good while still cheap high end CPUs. I picked AMD FX-8150 to compare with Intel Core i7-3820 What is the difference between these two CPUs? I am asking because the price difference is quite high. (In my local shop even higher) If I was...

I believe it is... The specification says there are less cores and lower clock compared to regular gtx560

It looks I will have to go with the GeForce 560GTX because it is the cheapest. R6870 is about 50 bucks more expensive in my local store. I am a little worried about clocks because the GeForce 560GTX O could afford is a little underclocked (Memory 3800MHz and 750MHz Core) while the R7770 is...

Hi, so which gpu would you recommend. I think in my local shop the geForce 560 is slightly cheaper (about 20 bucks) now so I am choosing between Radeon HD7770 or the nVidea geForce 560GTX. Please help me choose.

I know... PPL tend to think that but the HD 7770 is far more future proof (it is over a year newer) it is more quiet, consumes much less energy and is a little cheaper.

Well for now I am about to buy a simple 1GB Radeon HD7770. I have a small resolution monitor at the moment and I am not looking to buy any high end hardware at the moment. I was just wondering about available GPUs out there.

I see. So big studios who do 3D modeling use those? Like pixar maybe. I think long time ago pixar had on their homepage a little comparison that it would take 90 hours to render one frame of pixar movie if it were rendered on typical home PC.

Which video card is professional one? Are they not accessible to general market

Is there even any other activity you do on a PC that requires more than 2GB of GPU memory? Video editing, 3D modeling? (Lets not include weather calculations, lets stick to home PC use) I guess these two, but still if you have 24GB of RAM and a 6 core Core i7 I think you can use some cheap...

Please block this idiot

Hi, I was a big fan and enthusiastic user of Radeon HD4870x2 and I was proud of having two cores in my GPU (even though I had no idea how much better performance I was getting). Well anyway that was a 2GB GPU and now all I can see is 3GB single GPUs. Very few 2 core 4GB or even 2 core 6GB...

I used to have the reference fan for about a year and I though I was going to go deaf from it. After about a year I installed a 3 fan cooler which made it run very quiet however for some reason the VDDC parts of the GPU kept overheating, going above 100C. I had to underclock the GPU to keep...

Sorry I dont remember. It has been however running very smoothly delivering power to Radeon HD4870x2 and Core i7 920 for over 3 years so I believe the quality is fine of the power supply. I definitely has 3 more years of life ahead of it.

I have to admit I myself am an Ati/AMD supported because I never tried anything else so my opinion does not matter that much on this. What is most important to me is the price and partially noise the GPU creates. I mean do I really want to pay 1.7x more for a GPU that provides very similar...
