but it was such a vfm psu

I've said it before: I know about 400w unit, that is similar to Gigabyte Superb 460. Anything other than that with FSP is something I don't know. I don't know what vfm part you're referring to, but that 500w unit was always 4 pin ATX connector.

Extreme Gamer - Yeah... I was saying what Cilus explained... So I cudnt figure out where did lasers come from??!

hehehe..

anyways...

any update on Asus situation?

Shivam - FX 8120 shud be definitely considered... because every week here atleast 5 guys are coming and saying hey we want a rendering machine.... and for less than 2500k... and with 8 cores 8120 definitely deserves a mention!!!

i am not asking to replace amd with amd FX, but with intel i5/7 in your high end gaming configs.
please visit the link:

if the reasons stated in above link are true then why not suggest AMD FX series, if these are false, then give me the proof...
as they seems to be better than i5/i7 series, ....

Re: PC Buying Guide 2012 - Q1

There is a 4 pin 500w FSP unit that is available easily. If anyone is recommending it, mention the series as well. I am not sure of the rev version either, but keep these in mind before recommending it to anyone.

The link you provided comes from amd themselves and its to bias people. Read unbiased and neutral reviews to know more.

OK FINE, I HAVE SEARCHED FOR THE COMPARISONS BETWEEN 2500 AND 8150, AND ITS BEEN CLEAR TO ME THAT 8150 IS A DISSAPOINTMENT...

Extreme Gamer · Jan 10, 2012

Re: PC Buying Guide 2012 - Q1

intel doesn't follow that design. During fabbing, they either don't focus on unwanted segments beyond synchronization(lasting off the rudimentary section later) or they laser off bad segments of failed chips to get some ROI.

If AMD's method was followed, LGA 2011 would not be shared by both desktop and server. Traditionally intel's designs have not been as modular as amd's.

No update on asus situation

Re: PC Buying Guide 2012 - Q1

check till 70k -

Motherboard Notes -
1. rev 3.1 of Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P is better for overclocking. rev 4.0 cuts on phases to 3+1 instead of 4+1. Also rev3.1 hits its capability threshold with an x6 at 1.45V protective shutdown at this point despite cooling. And rev3.1 supports 140w processors onstead of 95w support of rev4.0. So try to find rev3.1 of that board.

2. Gigabyte GA-880GM-D2H also has same case. rev3.1 is better. has 4+1 phase design and supports 140w processors and oppsoed to 95w support and 3+1 phase of rev4.0.

Re: PC Buying Guide 2012 - Q1

Jas, in the Sub 50K one, I think we can go with AMD Phenom II X6 1090T @ 8.8K + CM Hyper 212 EVO @ 2K combo. This config really offers better tweaking capability and Multi-threaded performance than i5 2400.

well, I was following this guy last year on another forum (here) who was
working on the Liquid cooling project but I was not sure if his project was successful as the website link was not working. But glad to see he was finally able to come up with successful liquid cooling solution
