Right. My mistake, had to look that one up for myself xD. I'm used to talking about Intel sockets. Didn't know that AMD sockets were based upon memory usage.

Yea get this if you want to save a couple bucks.

Get this if you are willing to go strait to the price point.

No, the zambezi is a AM3+ chip, which will not work in a AM2+ socket.

yey

DV6. Good choice. Specs?
My laptop is a DV6 too.

AMD A8 1.8 ghz.
Gpu has 1 gb vram, I'm not sure about the multi part though, Ethan says it's shared and dedicated for less power usage, but I thought it meant two of them.

Nah, some setups are like that (typically Intel integrated GPU + AMD dedicated GPU) however with AMD vision from an APU like your A8 CPU, means that the CPU has an inbuilt graphics chip which can be kind of mock-crossfired with the dedicated one for performance similar to a 6755.

Hope that makes sense :P

Why is the matrix in japanese?

Because you're gay.

Ye, it may be slightly less powerful than SLI 680s but in terms of performance to power/noise it kicks the SLI config like crazy.

Now we just need to see someone get two of them and the OC each to their peak 0_0

I need a really good case with really good cooling that supports micro-ATX motherboards and Under $100.

[Mulch]

Does my Radeon HD 7950 support glasses free 3D? If so what monitor should I get for 3D? I currently have a 27" TV as a monitor and was hoping to get one of the same size.

NVM that stuffs expensive.

[heedicalking]

anyone who has a 590 or 6## series, what job do you have (how much per hour/week)? I was wondering how long it would take to save up enough for a beefy card, and I am going to find a job over the summer. Also, what is a good motherboard to fit the new tech that is coming out?

[Feep]

Then just use HDMI. lol

HDMI goes to speakers of monitor, I want headphones.

So I just got my work laptop in for this summer for internet video streaming.  I do like it a lot.  Yes I did receive a full HD camera fresh out of the box with it for my job.  This laptop is my work.
