BIOS is up to date, from what I've used with the Gigabyte BIOS utility. I might be upgrading to a 280X from a MSI 7850. Just waiting for the bonus pay to come in :)

I would mainly be using it for video recording/rendering and playing some games like Battlefield and possibly Titanfall, etc.

Hi all, I wanted to find out if there would be any significant benefit to upgrading from my current i5-2500K 3.30GHz CPU to an i7-3770K 3.50Ghz CPU? More so, I wasn't too sure if my motherboard would be able to take it. If anyone could shed some light on this, I would greatly appreciate it...

Thanks everyone for their help! You're all awesome :) I think I'm going to go for the R9 280X after reading through everyone's posts again. More specifically: MSI Radeon R9 280X Gaming Edition OC 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card Unless anyone could suggest anything better in the...

I just checked that out, 1000 posts to make. I make use of the forum from time to time but that will indeed take a long time for me to get up there :( I see at one point it was only 250 points :/ But yeah I know what you mean, I would trust using the MM here. Guess I'll have to stick up a...

You seem to know me quite well sir :P I would generally like a card that is fairly quiet for when audio recordings take place, but then as I only record then remove background noise/PC fans going off etc, it shouldn't be too much of a bother. That being said, this does look quite nice...

To be quite fair, I have a 2x4GB ram kit, the GTX 460 and the 7850 to use for cash if I were to sell those to add to my budget. Only issue is that I've never sold anything online, more so I wouldn't want to get less for them by selling to high street stores to get the cash. But a thought none...

Only reason I would like to go NVIDIA again is due to making use of the CUDA cores. I could use my old GTX 460 1GB but if I decide that I would have fancied doing some PC gaming, I don't want to have to swap out GFX cards just for that. I may decide to go for the Gigabyte, would just need to...

Hi all, hope you've all had a good New Year! I wanted to ask (again, as I normally have in the past) suggestions for GFX cards. I enjoy my 7850 but want to switch back to an NVIDIA based card for rendering. Currently have my eye on this: MSI GeForce GTX 760 OC Gaming Edition 4096MB However...

I was hoping to avoid that :(

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has been able to get around the upgrade error, when you have your user profile on another drive? Error: "Sorry, it looks like this PC can't run Windows 8.1. This might be because the Users or Program Files folder is being redirected to another partition."

Bought the 250GB Evo, sata cable and the 3.5" adapter to fit it in. Hopefully all works okay once they arrive =)

Morning all, I was wondering if anyone could suggest an SSD/HDD setup for my machine. Specs: Power Supply: XFX 650W Pro Power supply CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K 3.30GHz @ 4.60GHz Sandybridge CPU Motherboard: Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard ** B3 REVISION ** Graphics card: MSI HD...

I edit in Vegas Pro. So guess I'm ordering this when I get back from work :)

Hi all. I'm thinking to go and get me one of these lovely graphics cards. But my main area is with video rendering. I do the odd bit of pc gaming. So just wondering which would recommend? Prices are nothing to squabble about either :)

If I were to go with one out of the following three, which would people recommend? :) MSI GeForce GTX 660Ti Power Edition 2048MB GDDR5 KFA2 GeForce GTX 660TI EX OC 3072MB GDDR5 OcUK GeForce GTX 560Ti 2048MB GDDR5

It's almost a shame really, I went for the 7850 based on suggestions here in another post I made >_< Originally, well, at the time I planned on going for the 560ti. Need to find out if anyone fancies having a relatively new 7850, or see if something could be exchanged :/ Appreciate the...

Hi all, I know I've asked this before. Previously, I had a GTX 460 1GB which rendered relatively well in Vegas Pro 11/12. Since asking about a new graphics card for rendering/gaming, I was suggested the HD Radeon 7850, which does a nice treat when it comes to gaming. However, Vegas isn't...

You would make my Christmas if you do :P :)
