Well, I saw some weird settings of the Gigabyte One. So finally I decided to upgrade my PC in this. Videocard: http://www.amazon.es/MSI-N560GTX-Ti-Twin-Frozr-OC/dp/B004K8R8AI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342603652&sr=8-1 RAM: http://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B004QBUL1C/ref=s9_simh_gw_p23_d1_g23_i1?pf_rd_m=A1AT7YVPFBWXBL&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_r=181SVFTMKHE8GGVF5D1W&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=312237387&pf_rd_i=602357031 Btw, could I get use of my last RAM memory? I have Kingston 4GB, could I get only one of 4GB and use 8GB? I mean the older one + new one.
very good choice the video card, prolly the best gtx560 Ti/Oc around bout the memories, well u need to find same exaclty model you got now, it should be the same, neither similar, just SAME or u may have bsods problem, different brand moduls may have different default voltage also they may have different timings, frequency, amount of memory, etc, so if u just want to add 4gb, be sure u buy same exaclty model that you already have.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396432 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 14:23:03 +0200 Reply by SquirryKnife https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396409 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396409 Wed, 18 Jul 2012 11:29:34 +0200 Reply by Seclusioned https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396142 Quoted from george
[...]ASUS P8Z77-V LX is decent motherboard (USB 3.0 ports don't work under XP).

Don't use XP ^^ Thanks for the advices :D]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396142 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 20:26:44 +0200 Reply by SquirryKnife https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396123 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396123 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 18:29:12 +0200 Reply by ShiFt_02 https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396122 Quoted from Squirry
I found that GTX 560Ti at 200 euros, but I think would be cheaper, but I don't know where I find because I'm spanish and cannot find cheaper in, and don't know any shit about foreign shops. If ucould recommend me. Cheers :D
I've already send you a Spain website.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396122 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 18:27:58 +0200 Reply by SquirryKnife https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396102 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396102 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 17:14:41 +0200 Reply by ShiFt_02 https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396096 Quoted from Maffi

Yeah I read the same thing although the heating actually comes a problem when doing extreme overclocking or something? But the thread is getting out of hand. I could talk about this stuff all day and night :)
dont remember in any case they were talking bout the overclock, yeah stop going off :D]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396026 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 03:00:37 +0200 Reply by Rock https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396025 Quoted from rockie
[...] yeah ivys are upgraded sandys, both powerfull cpus, but i read something about the ivy, seems they have some internal issues with the internal grease, ppl was blaming intel because they were having pretty high temp while overclocking, i dont know they may have fixed this problem, anyway atm im running a 2600k and it's perfect no problems tons of fps in all the games and still low temps even at full load etc...
didnt notice that you wrote the "price" :D]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396025 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 02:59:27 +0200 Reply by Septique https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396024 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396024 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 02:59:01 +0200 Reply by Rock https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-3/?recent=396432#post=396023 Quoted from Septique
Well why not get the latest tech(ivy), when there is almost no difference at all(in performance/price). It's just my opinion and I'd get the newest one. You can't go wrong with either 2500k or 3570k tho. Both really good processors.

[...] The k version is practically the same price and theres no reason to limit yourself..
yeah it's same price, but what about the 2500k then? in some cases it performs better than the ivys and it costs something like 30€ less if u dont want to limit yourself, it means you will overclock even a bit your cpu or not? because if you wont it's pointless to buy the K even if it costs 1/2 euro more than the normal one and keep ready for the future, the psu isnt a compontent that you have to change so often, tbh it's better to buy a good psu and keep it for years, without waste more money, and re buy psus every time you change something into your pc]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=22000&post=396021 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 02:44:18 +0200 Reply by dodgydogman https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-22000/page-2/?recent=396432#post=396020 Quoted from rockie
