[QUOTE="MonsieurX"]Bad idea. It's always recommended to do a fresh install if you change the motherboardJohnF111

Kinda off topic or on topic here, If you upgrade your motherboard can you transfer windows 8 upgrade to the new motherboard or is that only for ome system builders windows 8?

I've tried researching it but I keep coming up with different answers that don't make a lot of since to me O.o

:edit I mean restalling windows 8 upgrade on to the new motherboard under the same owner. I'm not if I'm making any since, So confused o.o

I want upgrade my motherboard but would like to try save alittle money on OS.

[QUOTE="Blistrax"]Get 2X4GB RAM sticks so you can run dual-channel.kraken2109

This, 1 8GB stick is a bad idea.

I can't afford to order it all once so I'm gonna start with the stuff that I know that won't fall out of date, Stuff like Case , Power supply and OS.

I'm not sure if I'm gonna with windows 8 or 7.I'm really disliking how some games won't even start up or just freeze or crash under windows 8. Its a nice OS has nice interface that I didn't like at first but grew to like it after a while.

Anybody know If I install windows 8 64bit upgrade on my system and as long remove it off my old one? I've got the disks from Microsoft when upgraded my 32bit windows xp. I've tried doing some research on it and it's always left me quite confused.

Edit: The list my change because by time I've got the money saved for the main (Motherboard, CPU,Ram and video card) stuff new stuff may come out lol.

[QUOTE="Barujin"]

If no consoles ever offer upgrades to their graphics, then they are obselete within a short amount of time. Dead on arrival might be rather harsh, but it's the right kind of thinking for those who don't want to be stuck in a specific era of graphics. The irony is that game companies who sleep with the console companies force PC gamers to tolerate those obselete graphics due to ports.

[QUOTE="gt350tsc"][QUOTE="MonsieurX"]2nd build. Don't get the V4,nowhere near as good as the M4. And not a fan of those water coolers,air cooling ftw. And I'd get a better\bigger caseMonsieurX

The v4 would have to be significantly cheaper than any other SSD to be worth buying. At the current prices, you can get an SSD that is several times faster for $5-20 more depending on the model and capacity. If you're lucky, you may be able to catch a hot sale and get a good SSD (say Samsung SSD 830 for instance) for less than the v4. Hence I really can't recommend the v4 at all; you're better off waiting a short while for a sale on a better SSD, or just pay slightly more now if you're in a position where waiting is not possible (a drive failure for example).

Edit: I decided to drop one of the 2TB drive to go with a : Crucial M4 256GB  instead.

So it looks like this

So I was just playing around PC part picker and thinking about if I had the money which build would be better for playing games, recording gameplay, editing video and uploading to youtube 720P or 1080P which ever works best. 

Also about how long do you guys think one of theses PC's would last before being way out of date.

I wonder how this will affect the pc sales because I know I won't be buying it and my xbox died of the red rings so that out as well.

I'm waiting for the next gen of consoles before I purchases a new one.

[QUOTE="gt350tsc"]Anybody able to get it to launch on 64bit windows 8. I can't seem to get it to launch. I have the same problem with Cryengine 3 as well which I've read that Crytech does't support windows 8 :(LazyKris_89
