[..YouTube..] he is full of shit when saids that xp is slower than vista.
he doesn’t have a fucking clue what he saids xp is still twice as fast vista all you have is look at the proof of FPS
between the and will clearly see that xp is 50 to 60% faster. this new guy is a fucking retard or a salesman

elisaaltabano Says:
August 10th, 2008 at 4:36 pm

[..YouTube..] thats a nice laptop. i want it. give it to me! now! arrrrrrrrrrghh!!!…(deep breathing)…
sorry i just got a little caried away there. you see, i’m saving up for a laptop right now and i only have like 70 bucks. but when i do get one i’m probably going to do an unboxing video of it and then mabey a review video. oh, ya, and great video.

jonnyboy8807 Says:
August 10th, 2008 at 9:17 pm

[..YouTube..] He never said xp was slower. He said vista would be fast on a new system. Learn to listen.

jonnyboy8807 Says:
August 10th, 2008 at 9:20 pm

[..YouTube..] He never said you had to buy them. It’s a good thing to go out and compare monitors and sound systems, which you don’t have to buy. He also suggested reading reviews on the internet.

jonnyboy8807 Says:
August 10th, 2008 at 9:23 pm

[..YouTube..] he probably meant a q9450

Good video, Albert. Always helpful.

or
evga 750i ftw edition, help would be much appreciated

drumaster134 Says:
September 25th, 2008 at 1:52 pm

[..YouTube..] i just got my 750 i ftw, its an awesomn board, it overclocks like a dream, and it was on a great sale at compusa… my q9300 runs at 3ghz very comfortably, only 2 things, you have to know how to overclock and understand the specs of your components(you need to input the proper clockspeeds for ram) and when overclocking you either need really good case airflow, or the really noisy chipset fan, or ek 790-680 south and north bridge water blocks. but overall its a great board!

Splitclaw Says:
November 30th, 2008 at 3:28 am

[..YouTube..] I was going kinda crazy on components but I eased and ended spending less than $1200 eats up any game’s I give it: E8400(OC to 4.0)water cooled,750i FTW,4G’s Dominator 1066,two 260GTX core 216 SC, also had to get a 750 PSU corsair it’s awsome bang for the buck! Now really thinking if I should get Vista lol.

Can I get a motherboard with two or more 16x pci adapters ?

nogood510 Says:
December 25th, 2008 at 5:06 pm

[..YouTube..] it drives me crazy when people build really unbalanced system. one time i saw a guy put a p5Q motherboard with a e8500 and said he’s not gonna overclock and not gonna game… i was like dude you don’t need to spend that money on the mobo (which is good for OC’ing) if you don’t need it, you can just upgrade your harddrive space and RAM

skatejj110 Says:
January 7th, 2009 at 12:28 am
