Bro. Want to ask with i7 6700 what gigabyte mobo is suitable for me?

For me, i typically go for budget motherboard such as H81 for haswell series and above as they include SATA III and USB 3.0.

These features typically do not present in the older H61 chipset motherboards.

Since i already stop doing active trading, kinda out of the loop for skylake series hardwares. I only spend for motherboards with the features that i need. smile.gif

Hello sifus, does engineer sample cpu have problem or side effects?
I found plenty of es/eq cpus on taobao, for instance :
http://world.taobao.com/item/42657808246.h...0.QKxoYe#detail

why are these cpu cheaper than market price? like 40% only.

I am not sure if there are any actual side effect, but i found out my ES processor tend to overheat.

ES stands for engineering sample. So, i think luck is another factor to consider.

Better pay extra and ask them to run test.

Note: It is an old processor BTW. Core 2 Duo.

Intel i7 2600k
P8H67-M LE
8gb Ram x 2
Gainward GTX560 Ti "Golden Sample" 1GB GDDR5 256bit -- (900/4200mhz)
FSP HEXA 500W 80Plus

My 560 Ti just malfunctioned, it keeps crashing even after i clean install OS and device drivers (tried several versions). Only lasted for 3 years. Is it that the problem comes from my power supply? Insufficient power supply?

Would like to enquire all the sifus here on the graphic card recommendation. My budget is around 500-700. I don't do hardcore gaming, just Dota 2. So, if lower end GPU is sufficient, I will take it. Preferable AMD graphic card, lost faith in Nvidia ones.

Thank you.

With that budget, you can get asus gtx750ti or take a look at gtx950.

For me, I do not have problem with nvidia manufactured by good manufacturer.

If you still prefer amd, you can take a look at asus r9 360.
