Where did the 300 quid come up anyway :p?

I'd take an R9 290 over a 460 SLI, but now we're going OTT, going completely in another direction.
And I just explained more about mantle, not sure why you're allowed and I get questioned :p?

YOU DID IT :p

Maybe you were thinking 8350 + Crosshair Formula-Z?
 
Don't side/downgrade from an i7 920 to AMD FX. Just grab another used X58 board. You might have a hunt on though as you don't have MM access.
 
Yeah so difficult to get on the sales pages on here lol.

Second hand board is difficult to find, I would have one if I could find a decent one, after listening to what's said, but hey I dunno
 
Quoting clock for clock facts isn't helpful really, I'd like to see you get a Q6600 to 5GHz with a big air cooler. :p
 
Even so you see the point I'm driving at. :)

Its a bit like saying The Bugatti Veyron is incredibly behind because CC for CC it is slower than a 1994 VW Polo.

No because the OP doesn't have a Q6600, he has an i7 with a vastly superior IPC compared to anything AMD has on the market so it doesn't need to hit high clocks to beat the FX.

I was referring to what you said just now. :confused:

AMD generally aren't that much faster in terms of instructions per clock then the Core 2 Quad architecture... They're THAT far behind.

Donut. :D
 
Lol what have I started here, ok so people say amd is out? As they are behind the drag curve?

Am I allowed to ask if anyone is selling a decent 1366 mobo? Or is that against the rules?

eBay dude.... x58 boards, especially the nice ones were built like tanks so you'll be fine with a used one.

Then buy a new GPU :)
