havoc

I am looking foward to love despite. Seems like a lot of work is going in to it. Other than that i dont really follow them.

the difference between a k model and a no k model is wenether the cpu is unlocked and you can actually fully overclock it. So the difference is quite big.

seems like it.

While i dont get what he means completely. That is most likely the case. Altough i would wait for an explaination from the actual person in question.

True enough but them is a factor when buying it has to do with how far you can overclock afteral. But i will admit to being a nvidea fanboy a bit. And personally i would not consider amd because you generally have to buy a amd pc for that and i prefer intel cpu over amd. This one also has to do with temperature. And temparature has an effect on life spam. But i will admit to personally considering amd inferior over nvidea and intel. And that is personal i know amd is not bad and it is generally a lot wallet warrior friendly. Random note, have a laugh.

So that is no longer true. Ow well i am a nvidea fanboy and will propably stay that way. Never had anyproblems with thier gpu's Where as the only amd gpu i ever had managed to fry itself and fry my motherboard in the process.

If you want one that will last for a while i would suggest a gtx 660. It is a lot cheaper than my 670 and still preforms quite well its main disatvantage compared to the 670 is that it is not suited for overclocking. (has nothing to do with the temp but with a different bottlenek) The thing is i don't know what 700 usd would get you in america. My pc excluding monitor mouse, keyboard was about 1400 euro wich is almost 1870 usd. The thing is I live on holland and holland is expensive. An american is going to faint at the gas price here. as for the specs of my pc here they are. i5-3570k asus gtx 670 4gb 16 gb ram 120gb ssd 1tb hdd (7200 rpm) And i cant seem to remember my motherboard name. P.S finalchaos why do you seem to be stuck on 3 posts? (i know you have made many more)

Simple rule about video cards, more expensive is generally better for video cards. Also nvidea video cards generally have better performance due to better drivers

nice vid, did not really tell me anything new. But it is a great explaination.

nice to see a new face have some bloopers.

Anime seems intersesting seems like next seasons will be good seasons as well. As for the gf question none of the above. Still can't decide between; Saber Acrucied Fate testerossa Lafiel (crest of the stars) Aoi (ai yori aoshi) hanako (katwa no shoujo) Maybey i should just start a harem............

That depends. If you do a lot of video editing it is worth it. The reason being video editing needs a lot of multitasking and for that hyperthreading is a good thing. If you only do video editing on occasion it is probaly not worth it. The reason being the increase in price. If you play a lot of games it is also not worth it because hyperthreading is not very usefull of games better spend the extra money on a better video card. So it all comes down how much video editing you do and how heavy that video editing is. This is decides wenether you actually need a i7-4770k. The reason i sugessted the i5-3570k was because it did not know you did video editing. And though you where planning on building a game machine. In that case it is not worth it because the performance increase of the i7-4770k vs the i5-3570k would be mariginal as most games can't make use of hyperthreading. In the case of video editing however the performance difference should be noticable due to the fact that the i7 is more suited to multitasking. So it all depends on how heavy the video editing you do is and wenether that increase in performance during video editing is worth it for you.

You Kind of lost me there.

True for multitasking it indeed inferior. But just so you know it both are quad cores

sorry i know i can get pretty lengty sometimes.

I thing you could get about5 more year of top performance out of these before you have to start dropping settings. That said i am no computer expert so i could be way off. The i5 wil probably last longer than the gtx 670. But a gtx 670 is still far above average. And dont forget that devolopment for desktop pc has slowed down in favor of mobile pc's. And those gpu's are terrible compared to desktop gpu's. A gtx 670 easali outperforms even gaming laptops. ( as far as i am aware.) And dont forget budget is always top priority so spend what you got the right way and dont look back.

The gtx is also a good candidate for overclocking and i am still running at stock speed. Max temp i get on it is about 72 degrees failure temp is at 115 degrees so i got plenty of room to spare for overclocking it.

For gaming purposes there is not much difference between a i7 and a i5. Reason being a virual core is not of much use for a game as far as i am aware. (correct me if i am wring here) So if i where you i would go for a i5-3570k wich is quite a bit cheaper than the i7 4770k and has almost the same clock speed just no virtual cores. (3.40gh vs 3.5ghz) It is also well known to be reliable and very suited ofr overclocking when needed. (some people have this thing running at 4.5 ghz per core) If you would to that you do need a non stock cooling but those are not that expensive and it's non overclocked performance is more good enough to run just about everything on max without maxing out the processor. Only exception bein Wot because it only uses one core. (but that is a game design problem nothing to do with the cpu) Now your gpu is much more important, This is where you want to spend most of your money if you are going for a gaming rig. My gpu is a gtx 670 wich is the best i could afford. (i got 4gb instead of the 2gb version) And it still is a very good gpu. ( So far I have managed to run everything on max settings no prop and generally still get 60 fps with vsinc on) Only exception being WOT and War Thunder. But WOt is very badly optimised for high end pc's And i am running war thunder far beiond standard movie quallity settings especially on the render distance. But if you have the money for it get a gtx 780. So for your budget, i would personally say no a i7 4770k is not worth it. Balance is the most important thing in a pc so make sure you get that right. A good cpu and shitty gpu still make for a bad gaming rig. Same for the other way around. Hope this helps Also next time please make a estimate how much that is in euro or dollar that says a bit more about your budget.

Unlimited is already much better than extra so that is a good thing. As for wenether it is worth it, that is up to you to decide. But in my opinion it is definitly worth it as i am currently on my third playthrough of muv luv alternative.

damm now i really want to play it...... but so much to do. Still have to finish a rerun of mul luv alternative. And still have a shit ton of movies laying around......Damm. Time my ethernal enemy

Read the novels of Mahouka no Rettousei. The feel a lot more alive then the anime because of info dumps. Wich i will admit are totally neccesary in the anime because of the relativly unque magic system. Just finfished porco rossa .

I agree with you completely, but if you absolutely can't stand extra it still is the better option compared to just dropping it. And personally i am almost always doing two thing at one time, usually reading a book/anime and a vn. The reason being i need some variatie in story or i will get bored. You could also play two vn's at once alternating between them so the story stays fresh and that boring arc's dont become a chore.

To bad it is only old stuff

Seems like we will be getting a new muv luv title for the ps3. I have no idea what will be in it yet though. Seems like it would be interesting tough if it would contain new stuff http://vndb.org/v15239

muv luv is quite good it is just that the extra part wich you have to start with is only decent at best. After you finish one route in muv luv you can play the unlimited story wich is much better. If you dont want to play extra because you think it is boring then get yourself a save file from someone and use that to skip to unlimited.
