i am trying to surprise my little brother with a gaming rig between 800-1000 but have no clue what im doing other than hes been asking for the HAF 932 which i already got but a i5 core intel is good for gaming ? please someone answer this one question and i will try to find the other billion answers i need elsewhere
ok this will probably never get answered but its worth a shot...is the 1.408 core voltage used for your 4.1 Ghz for 24/7 use or is it just for benchmarking? anyone?
And the free alternatives could be WeGame for game recording and CamStudio for screen stuff. But Camtasia and Fraps have a somewhat better quality over them (especially on Camtasia's side).
I'm looking to build a new one. I have the money now but I'll wait a year for new tech to come out. My rig right now is way more than enough for the games I play.

Folding@Home is a distributive computing program distributed by Stanford. What it does is that it simulates protein folding on your computer and sends the data back to Stanford Medical. The data is then published for free public use for medical research.
It's a very great cause, as misfolded proteins are responsible for many diseases, Huntington's and Alzheimer's among them.
Who needs those machines anyway. My P'C' still opens minesweeper in 1.5 seconds, or 2. Aww damn! What am I saying. This video made me burst into tears. I wish I had enough money to buy a PC like that, but then again, wouldn't I get me a car?
I have a Core 2 Duo E7400 at the stock clocks, and a GT240 from GB...Runs MW2 at pretty high settings at reasonable rate,and yet it's very cheap....I'm not saying its better than anything you can possible yet but a great budget choice...
OMG that`s a nice rig you got ;) I got a old PC , can`t play anything decent with "high " graphics ( 2Ghz dual core processor , Nvidia GeForece 8600 GT ) .
A piece of crap , i know . I still hope i will get a new graphics card soon .
wow my next rig is also with HAF 932 and core i5-750, aiming for 4GHZ. mind sending me a pm with ure bios settings, cooler and temps? cos im getting a corsair h50
@hiker699 Sharper, smoother edges, more realistic video, all requires more GPU processing which is why I enable it to stress test the video card fully. Not enabling it and setting it off isnt fair when reviewing a gaming video card.
But yea, ram is good enough for me. I can run my games fine, dont really need upgrade. I ened to upgrade my psu and then save enough for either the new fermi;s coming or get some 5000 cards. Or i might opt for 4870, thats probably good enough to run Bc2. I
All I need is a card and I'll be playing games like this too. (i7860 - 8GB 1600Mhz RAM - 128GB SSD) Thanks for getting me thinking about gaming again)
One. You plug this in to the "Primary" Video card, usually the one closest to the CPU. The Video Cards 'talk' to each other. This adapter can be a DVI-VGA or DVI-HDMI, whichever you so prefer. Again, you only need ONE adapter.
Hello PcWizKid, i was wondering if you could help me, im trying to renew my PC and i was wondering, at 1920x1200, is the HD5870 a good choice, or should i go to the HD5850? is the 5870 overkill? thanks a lot love the vids!
