On a separate note - is it worth waiting till September when Intel are supposedly releasing 11th Gen? Is this a reality or just hype?

I'm not so sure about that. I've even managed to install Mac on my Legacy X5670! Works fine - but the power isn't there.

In terms of the transition to ARM - that is less of a concern. All that will mean is that in two years, future OS will exclusively support ARM architecture. OS till then will support Intel, and apps will continue to support Intel for at least 5 years to support Intel architectures being sold...

This is a great summary, thanks. It seems there is no good option in terms of value where Intel is concerned. It is plagued with trade offs.

Yeah, I think you're right. I've pretty much decided that the Intel route = water-cooling. Period. :/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kndsJg_nQyg I really want to (really), but they don't play as nice in a Hackintosh build - more hassle and in certain use cases, incompatible

Hi all, The AMD vs Intel controversy has been maddening. I had decided to go the 3700x route, but because I want to play around with Hackintosh, I have decided on Intel. Can anyone spec me a 9th gen or 10th gen build please? I’m look to install Windows for Gaming and Mac for video editing...

Just received the Strafe RGB with brown switches - first mech keyboard and woah - it is awesome.. I can see how the RGB feature "can be a gimmick" after a while - however, I find the backlighting awesome (e.g. all one colour bar certain keys that I commonly use). I messed around with a few...

Does this cause issues? I recently installed this but haven't tested the impact of it yet..

It seems as though the drivers have worked for you as my drivers are signed by microsoft and dated 2006.. In any event, a number of people have said that the drivers do not matter too much.. it seems as though the effectiveness of my overclock has reduced over time - the pain and joy that...

I'll give it a shot.. cheers :)

Hi all - has anyone with this mobo moved to W10? I'm confused about the core drivers which need to be installed, namely intel chipset driver software. The automatic utility does not reveal anything that I need to download; I can't help but think that this is incorrect. Any thoughts? Few...

I seem to be having similar issues. Borderless Window is my problem. Full screen V-Sync is fine. Did you manage to resolve your issues?

I've started to get into BF4 and am having a play in Siege. I'm actually quite rubbish at FPS shooters now (which surprised me lol) - so looking for reasons not to blame my hardware..

Thanks for the responses lads.. In terms of comparing virtual dolby from a soundcard to stereo headphones' - is that as good as' a gaming headset (apart from the manner in which a manufacturer decides to implement it). I guess I'm trying to determine whether a gaming 7.1 headset does...

I've got a pair of Bose QC3 headphones - I love them because it is very comfortable and has noise cancelling features :D Here's the thing - my soundcard supports virtual dolby - so will I see any benefit when using a gaming "virtual dolby 7.1" headset?

Just ordered the Strafe RGB with brown switches - it's my first mech keyboard so I'm looking forward to experiencing how well it performs in comparison to my rubber dome keyboard.. I really wanted the Strafe RGB but in a 10 key-less variant with the addition of a headphone/mic jack (similar to...

I went for the Strafe RGB with brown switches on offer on ocuk in the end.. If anyone else is considering this keyboard then I'd be happy to offer an opinion on it :)

Hi all - suffering from decision fatigue on this, any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm looking for one which is/has: - 10 key-less (ideally) - extra usb port for a mouse (must have) - backlighting (not necessarily RGB, but one that lets me have certain keys backlit depending on the game)...

Hey guys - moving a little away from the watercooling side.. is anyone having any issues with GTA 5 at 3440x1440? I get random dips from 60 to 45 fps on a G1 980 ti. Sometimes to 30. It's making me crazy. Driver issues?
