The Computer Megathread

Ugg, I really need a better motherboard if I really want to upgrade more. I don't there there would be enough room for a new cpu cooler in mine, my AMD stock cooler already takes up one RAM slot.

What motherboard are you using now, and if you don't know that what cpu?

You need to tell us what kind of socket the motherboard uses.

I wouldn't use it because i am a gamer, but it is good for what it is trying to be, which is a lightweight, web browsing netbook.

All in all, I wouldn't want one, But it is good for what it does.

No, Intel. Intel is better with their CPU's.

No, Intel. Intel is better with their CPU's.

Comparing Intel CPU's to AMD CPU's doesn't work
It's like comparing Intel Graphics to AMD Graphics

SDD's do though, not much be performance, but by loading, then yes quite a bit.
