Well then you don't really have much to worry about. It's not like it's that much faster.

Cool thanks. Been out the game for a while. Upgrading from a Intel E5200 so I wasn't sure how much difference there is between the i5 760 and 2500k. I just had a little buyer remorse since I've read that 2500k are awesome overclockers. 5Ghz on air.

But for now the i5 760 is plenty fast for me paired with a MSI 560 ti twin frozrII :fuckyea:

Got my parts throughout the last month and a half, making sure I had the best deals I could get within the time period. Bought most of my parts from both NCIX and ME, price matching and price beating between the two places. Friends came by during the weekend and built it...friggin' awesome.

One problem though...a friend of mine brought a copy of his Windows 7 OS (not genuine) that required no activation at all. Popped it into my new rig without being connected to the internet and it detected that the copy was not genuine. Anyone know how/why it was like that? Worked for my buddy when he installed it into his rig when he built it...thought that was about 2 years ago.

Bought my first comp from ATIC Computers . Then found out about NCIX. It was a huge eye opener for me. living in Nanaimo there was not much choice. NCIX wil always be my #1 choice and there is one in Langley near mu sisters house. I have been to MX twice and it's like computer nerd heaven. That's were I wanna go when I die.

bought my first computer from Addax Computers in richmond. Then later from being interested in computer tech., I found out about NCIX. Since then I always buy from NCIX cuz they get better deals and lower prices from manufacturers than other stores.

Memory Express is my #1 and NCIX is my #2. I've been using Memory Express for many years(they have been in AB for a while) and never had any issues.
