My phone is not capable of doing the tasks that a tablet can do. Not everyone in this world has a "smart phone"!

Yes, that is a problem -- no one has the 3930k in stock! However, the 3960X is not a problem to get.....which ultimately, may be the deciding factor. Although I wish I had the option of waiting for other processors to be released, the problem is, on busy days I am spending 10-12 hours a day...

I use InMotion to register my domains, but I know others who use Yahoo, Network Solutions, and Go Daddy and have not had problems. Yes, you need to purchase a hosting plan. Again, I use InMotion, but there are many other hosts out there. InMotion has a hosting plan centered around...

My wrists bother me when working on the computer, and few things I have found which help are the following: Kensington Expert Mouse -- This is the single biggest item which helps my mouse wrist. I also have the trackball mouse linked above, but my thumb becomes fatigued when using it for...

I had wanted to get the computer during the winter (slow time), but I am thinking more like you -- it is worth waiting for the 3930 and saving the money.

Thanks!!! The 3960 is in stock, but the 3930 is backordered until at least the end of February, maybe later.....so, if I decide to go with the 3930, guess I'll be waiting a while.

The "K" in the name means the processor is unlocked, and may be overclocked.

Wimp :P. BTW, it's working now :D.

I found this test to be very accurate. Yours Truly, Computer User Wannabe :D

Here is a not too great comparison chart. Content aware fill and a better refine edge tool are two great improvements in CS5. The improved edge finding may help you with background removal, depending upon the difficulty.

Do you have a 32bit operating system?

I thought the world record OC was the AMD 8150?? Or is that just good hype :D? http://www.geek.com/articles/chips/amd-bulldozer-cpu-beats-world-record-again-achieving-8-461ghz-2011111/

As long as you buy an AMD processor which is good enough, they can handle games just fine. Some people are radically into certain brands. Although I do prefer some brands over others (such as Ford over Chevy), I am not radical in any of these preferences. But sometimes the "fan boys" are...

In the market right now, Intel is a strong leader as far as performance goes. Intel having a strong competitor is best for the consumer, but AMD needs to do some more work before giving much competition. **This is coming from personal opinion from what I have read -- far from seasoned...

At this time, I don't see the need to run more than one GPU, but always like upgrading options to be open for the future. Thank you for the recommendations!!!

There are independent external devices which are able to read and store (and view, in some cases) images from memory cards, however, they are not cheap! I have used the Epson portable HD's for years, until the cost of CF cards came down, and it is cheaper to just buy more cards. Any...

Funny you mention the 3930 -- I was just comparing some benchmark results. What motherboard would you recommend for the 3930?

After reading many of the replies here, I thought I may get the "you're wasting money" responses, but I am 99% set on that processor ;). Although I am very interested in OC'ing a system, I do not want to do this for the first time on my main computer (which this will be), but will play around...

I am putting together the specs for my new system, which will be using the i7-3960X, but am not sure which motherboard would be best. Right now, I am thinking of using the ASUS Sabertooth X79. Is this a poor choice? Is there a better motherboard to use?? Any help is appreciated -- thank...

Question from newbie :). Does using RAM which faster than is natively supported by the CPU result in useful performance difference?? (I hope that question makes sense :o.) People who work with graphics, especially use Photoshop, are able to utilize large amounts of RAM. It does make a...
