Basic Guide Purchase a New System

[coderunknown]

If I am not wrong, lower latencies are better ?

yup. it is so.

 

[Zangetsu]

ya now i know the model no of my RAM Corsair TW3X4G1600C9DHX
is it 1600MHZ

but in system information it shows 667MHz.....

 

[pulsar_swift]

ddr= dual data rate so its working @ 667 * 2 = 1333Mhz

 

[coderunknown]

WOW. this thread lost its stickiness i guess

 

[pulsar_swift]

why man ? why so ?

 

[coderunknown]

its no more a sticky thread. being replaced by "Pc build questionnaire template" thread.

 

[pulsar_swift]

who created that new thread ? Ok its created by Mavihs. Hhm. This thread will slowly be closed.

 

[coderunknown]

actually this thread becoming useless. cause hardly anyone post here. everyone just enter & a new thread "i need a new pc for XXk." done

look like so. he not online here since last saturday or sunday. or maybe he all the way to Taiwan to contact Biostar to send him a cheap 870X based ATX motherboard

and when are you purchasing ur PC

please don't ask me this question. i really have no idea what my parents have in mind. all depends on them

ddr= dual data rate so its working @ 667 * 2 = 1333Mhz

so we have 2 multiply single frequency by 2

 

[Psychosocial]

so we have 2 multiply single frequency by 2

It's no that hard to multiply by 2 . And yeah, it is so. So if it shows 667 in your sys, multiply it by 2 and that's the real frequency your RAM's operating on.

give me reasons:

1. why 880G? why not 785G? mATX? get Gigabyte's 785G board for 4.6k.
2. only 2Gb ram? get 4Gb ram. total: 5.8k
and why are you after that 520W? are you going for a GTX460? or a HD5850?

1.bcoz of USB3 and SATA3
2.yup, 2gb only, will make 4gb after sometime
3.coz its a real good deal at just 4.1k and u know the quality of seasonic
VX 450 is of 3.8 k now
so adding 300 will be wise here

1. go with a addon card later on from VIA having USB 3.0 & Sata 3.0 simultaneously. will cost you 1.5-2k. for now, are you going for any SSD? and how many USB 3.0 Pendrives & external HDDs you got? i guess 0. plans to buy in this year? 0. cuase it'll take time for them to come down in price. BTW, what price was quoted to you for 880G? SMC?

2. better go with 785G + 4Gb DDR3. what about your favorite HD5770 man?

3. 5.1k for a Seasonic 520W? thats a bonus deal. if you can find it for 4.1-4.2, get it. but why you told, if available? was it out of stock?

1.u r totally right.but it will again be a pain for me to add these addon cards
anyways i'll think upon it tonight
it costs 5800 at SMC

2.i'm waiting till december-january for some new stuff

3.he told me to wait till 20 june

1. well i think, you got 2 option. either a mATX 785G for 4.6k or get this board. don't settle for a 5k+ 785G. waste.

2. ask Intel if it can make the price of SSD low to take advantage of Sata 3.0 or Seagate to bring Seagate's latest HDD+SDD hybrid to desktop at a low price. about USB 3.0, i won't comment. i doubt myself now

3. 20 june? ok so when you going get your upgrade?
