Is there anyone else excited about this pentium that's coming out? Depending on the price, it will be brilliant or bust. If they keep it sort of under 70usd I am going to buy one and do a little budget build with a hyper 212 and a 750ti. There's a ton of games that an over clocked dual core will...

With the new AMD Bios update for the 7950 lineup, I was wondering if it would work on the xfx Double Dissipation. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150616 Now I have read a few places that, although it is not a stock cooler, the pcb is in fact reference. Aside from core...

Well guys it looks like i'm going to be stuck in a hotel room in Alaska for 6 months. I need a decent gaming laptop, to maybe play some WoW, SC2...maybe some D3 or The old republic when it comes out. It makes me sick to have to spend money on a laptop, when I can build a way better desktop for...

From a budget gaming standpoint, which would be the better choice, coupled with a Gtx 460. Core I3-2100 http://www.newegg.co...5-078-_-Product or http://www.newegg.co...5-078-_-Product Phenom II x4 955 They are basically the same in price. The AMD can be overclocked and the intel cannot...

So i'm just a little confused about this. If you are running for example a 768 gtx 460, it has 768 mb of ram. Ok, but when you add another 768 in SLI it doesn't exactly mean you have 1536mb of video memory? BUT if each card is doing less of the rendering, like half of the screen per each card...
