The k-series don't have coolers but the regular ones do.
Rather, it's total overkill. No need for any aftermarket cooling with a stock CPU. Basically wasted money.
If we talk about gaming alone, since Sandy Bridge, if you've got an i5 or more, it's pretty much felt like you really only need to upgrade the CPU...
If you've got prime the MX100 512gb is only $160 today (And the 256gb is $80).
Extreme-UV. Also known as X-ray ;). Always been odd that they feel like they need to use a euphemism there. A very large issue going any smaller...

Oh yeah, I just put that there as I figured people would see how weasel-y the wording was.
Maybe, it might make much better use of multiple cores which may favor AMD. But, on the other hand, new version adoption is direct X is super slow...
By most accounts the pre-release versions run well. I'll probably do it on my home computer pretty quickly. Not much to go wrong there.
I suspect that you can hook the memory to a new controller and have it work. Reflashing might work but if it doesn't I kind of doubt you can DIY...
It's common to take a "good" old chip and rebrand it as a lower-end part when the high end gets replaced with new stuff. nVidia basically...
To reiterate what enigma was saying. The nvidia card is just an all-around better experience these days. Way better drivers, way less heat, less...
I get where you're coming from Enigma but for a first timer to PC building I wouldn't want to give someone a build that requires overclocking to...
That's what I was thinking too. Just plug the headphone jack into the USB thingy and make sure you've got the outputs set right in windows and you...
