Hey Tom, I've got a question about upgrading my PC. When the new Intel Haswell CPUs and the Gigabyte Z87X boards come out, im going to upgrade to a 4770K and one of the new Gigabyte mobos, my question is, would I be better off upgrading the GPU (currently a EVGA GTX 550Ti) or the RAM (Currently 2 DDIMS of Corsair @ 1333 totaling 4Gb)? Love your channel, thanks for all your hard work!

Can you post your rig specs matey?
 
Instead of multiple posts...

Q.Is live streaming going to be a major part of your business model from now on?
Or are you going to be doing this selectively at your discretion?

Q. Would even the most generic sound card to plug into the motherboard enable higher sound quality than onboard? *Thats current generation stuff I mean too.

Q.Would the speakers/headphones your using have to be of awesome quality to notice regardless?

How important are RAM timings, and do they make much of a noticeable difference in real world PC performance. and also, how long do you think until we start seeing DDR4-5, and how much of an impact can we expect from the new ram moduals
 
Do you think synthetic benchmarks should be scrapped in favour of real world benchmarks

I find synthetic benchmarks like sandra an 3d mark great for showing off but very little use compared to real world tests
 
Other than Orca what has been your favourite build/mod to do for a computer, either your own system or one for an event or another person?
 
Seeing how OC3d as both a website and youtube channel have evolved over the last few years and now with the introduction of Time To Live Media, what sort of future do you see for yourself and OC3d and where would you like to take the company?
 
How are things going between you and Strawbs? Hope you're still friends & all.

What do you think about "over the top" small rigs? Let's say a Rampage IV Gene, 3930k, 2x GTX 680s and a fair soundcard, all jampacked into something like the 350D or even smaller enclosures?

Are there any particular colors that you really want to see in builds moving forward?
 
Yo Tom nearly missed your show, good job you tweeted it :)

Tom,

SSD prices, when are they coming down ?? I cant believe that a ssd costs more to produce than a mechanical drive... Especially with metal prices sky high at the moment ..

EDIT: Saw I asked a dupe. Oops! New question quickly!

What are you thinking about the upcoming Z87 boards' visual? Are there any boards you really have your eyes set on? (If you're allowed to mention!)
