Hey, they need a new motherboard socket for the release of DDR4 RAM anyway. Especially because new RAM means new memory controllers.

what is Gigabyte's customer service and warranty like

Cause I'm considering this
Why worry about customer service if it works? If it doesn't, RMA it.

The Windforce 3X is a nice cooler.

Also, more details on Haswell.


They don't need to get any smaller, just better after this!
Moore's Law bro.

Trust me, it gets better as it gets smaller. But I'm quite appalled as Haswell uses LGA 1150...


Well, small so that it can still be handled physically.

Mini-micro-whatever SDs?

I lost like, 4 now.

Can someone recommend my a decent mobo for around $100? I don't have a whole lot of cash and I won't be overclocking. Socket 1155 intel.

Just go to newegg and filter the search to under $100 and socket 1155.

Btw on topic, I built two computers in the last year and when I was new to computer making, I considered this FAQ -blam!- and closed the tab in 3 minutes.

This or this, the later being slightly better. Don't forget about shipping costs.

It's supposed to have default speeds of 2133Mhz while running at 1.2V.

I'm not concerned about the price because I got this two years ago for $99.

This was 2009/2010. I wasn't really into PC gaming I just wanted a new mouse. I like it because I have back, forward, and F5 mapped to buttons and I have hyperscrolling.

Ok so....today my dad was asking me what I want for Christmas....I just told him that i'd get back to him on it.

So here's what i'm thinking....he can give me like....$100 or $200 to use on Black Friday to go towards PC parts. He may do this because honestly....there's not really anything else I want besides a few new clothing items and maybe a game 2.

And then i'm going to ask my mom to give me $200 to spend on Black Friday to go towards my PC, because she was originally going to buy me a Kindle Fire for Christmas....so just use that money for PC parts instead.

And then i'm selling off my ASUS G73SW. The LEAST amount of money I can get for this thing is $800, the MOST is $1300.

So I SHOULD be able to build quite the beastly computer.

Eh, I just use this mouse. Nothing fancy but still an excellent mouse.

So um is it safe if I continue to use this RAM at 1.65 volts? It's the only way I can get 1600 MHz out of them.

It should be safe to use....I don't see how it couldn't be...

Some CPU's have trouble handling higher voltages.

Mine seems to run fine. At least for now.

Intel says that the maximum safe voltage is 1.575V. Any more than that and you risk overvolting, or basically frying your CPU over time.

I'm sure you could run it for about two years safe, but any longer than that and you'll most likely see a downgrade in performance. Kingston RAM is notorious for eating up voltages, while Samsung is generally considered the most efficient.
