I know it's an AMD marketing slide but surely it suggests gaming wise that if it continued to scale then the more memory bandwidth the better? It is on the features page of the review and Dave added underneath "AMD gave me some slides that depict the performance increase offered by using 2133...

I was hoping the A10-6700 would support 2133 MHz by default but now i am left wondering if the extra heat produced by an A10-6800 would be worth the faster memory as a major reason i bought a second APU is low heat summer gaming. The overclocking results make me wonder if i would be better...

I have recently read through your RAM reviews, nice work with all of them :toast: I very much appreciate the exact height measurements and listing of the profiles with detailed timings.

That is beautiful :respect: Although i think you just made looking at this thread torture to me.

I'm jealous of the recent beautiful setups posted, this should give you all an idea why.

I think it would greatly depend on the setup as if a downwards flowing cooler was paired with a hot CPU that can really heat up the heat sink i think it could have a negative difference, but that would be more to do with a bad selection. I say this as i was a silly bear and put stock AMD...

I am only interested in using this style of cooler on 65w FM2 APUs so i would hope that would not be an issue. They come with small aluminum heat sinks which cool the chip and surrounding components well enough but not quiet enough thus why i want to replace them, i would hope this is...

I want two small downwards flowing coolers to replace two stock FM2 ones i'm currently using and this might be suitable, although i want to see reviews first. Could you please explain what you mean by that?

I'm curious about that as well and have been trying to try and find out at least an estimated distance traveled in that time but i am having very little luck. Plenty of unquoted wiki "information" like these "The Pliocene extends from 5.332 million years ago to 2.588 million years ago.[2]...

Well done and thank you for not going the route of so many other sites which go for a total change leaving most users unhappy.

Good to know there is not long to wait. I am currently posting this using an A4 5300 as my main computer and HTPC have failed me so i got this to replace my HTPC, although after getting to use this and game on it (source engine games so nothing demanding) i want an A10 5700 for general usage...

I look forward to being able to buy the 230mm white Spectre pro LED, handy timing as well as my current 230mm Spectre now dislikes being turned off so i was already considering options for a new large fan.

I never should have had my heart set on an 8 core desktop CPU from Intel, by the looks of things they will be available in the kind of time frame that i was intending to be using one before considering the next upgrade :( I know i should just settle for something more sensible but i fell in...

Will the 7970 GHz edition be pretty much the same thing as the 7970s that are clocked at or over 1ghz? Really unless it happens to be a 2ghz model i do not understand how this will help 7970s be any more competitive than the current overclocked models, anyone want to help me understand this?

Awesome, all i need to know now is when and where i can buy one.
