How will this even work as a legacy console in the future like 10y from now?

So basically i found my old ps3 HDD (40gb) and decided to put it in my rig.

Is there anyway i can use it to speed up my main HDD (1TB) or as some sort of cache ?

I went from 965 BE to i5 3570K. Slight but noticable difference in bf3.

GPU GTX560

Setup i500k 4.10 ghz 212+ EVO with push/pul dual fan configuration, artic silver thermal, 2 200 mmfans and a 120 mm for exhaust at the back of the Coolermaster xm case. With all this airflow going and exiting the PC my idle numbers consistently stay at mid to high 40's and in prime shoot up to 70's. whats the problem????

According to Techpowerup reviews , the performance summary of the GTX 660 ti beats HD 7870 and even the HD 7950.

Like someone already posted, the GTX560 doesnt handle BF3 that good with at that resolution. its just not enough.

Its also true that you need to atleast double your ram, and the cpu is barely hanging in there.

As long as the under performing AMD C.P.U.'s are low budget, They can compete with Intel in the desktop market and AMD does have a good amount of the laptop C.P.U. business.

EDIT: Im hoping that AMD would do something amazing, but for me its now too late. Its gonna be a while before im going back.

TC, you are are a complete gilipollas. The reason it got a 8.5 was because of the DRM and server problems at launch giving making Diablo 3 unplayable for long periods of time. Miroku32

Anyone know if Nvidia is resolving the 296.10 problem soon? Before it was just youtube, now it's crashing more often but restoring on itself when not on youtube though. Also get these messages if I wanna change the colours to windows-basic. Anyone else but GTX 560 users experiencing this issue?

Hi,

Ive built my own rig and im thinking about giving my dad a slight upgrade from his old crappy EeePC.(winxp)

Here is the hardware that ive had in mind:

Mobo: ASrock E350m1 Mini ITX AMD fusion E-350 with radeon HD 6310

Case: Compucase mini-itx with 120w PSU

optical: Sammy slim drive

Memory: Kingston valueram ddr3 4gb

HDD: Not a clue yet because prices are still high over here. But the case seems to have room for a 3.5"

Price is about 200euros without the HDD.

Will be used for web browsing, skype, youtube HD videos, and a bit of music composing, amateur stuff.

Opinions, upgrades, changes?

Thanks.
