Fuck Comcast. That or fuck YouTube. Vimeo loads fine, all my websites load fine, youtube can't even buffer a 480p video faster than I can watch it.

Youtubes been going to shit for like 4 months now. With their connection issues, videos just dropping halfway through and their inability to use any kind of <center> tags

I can't say it's youtube's fault for sure, since the US carriers are crazy, but youtube is funky for me as well -- if it would actually buffer, I could buffer 1080p movies in seconds, but it stops halfway and never resumes - even in 480p!

I've never had any of the above problems strangely, youtube has been working without a problem.

I know I'm late to the party, but I missed the conversation about upgrading to Haswell and I wanted to say: I'm upgrading, even if the performance isn't that much higher than my 2500K, I want to go M-ITX and going to Haswell would be the best excuse to do so. I've already got a friend who wants to buy my 2500K + motherboard + RAM when I do.

those are allways the best ways of upgrading fund wise
ill be rocking a 3770k at the beginning of this week to make sure my precious titan won't have a minor bottleneck from the 2.0 lane.
after that time to start saving for sound setup. (going 1440p in 2 weeks)

Just a heads up for US/CA users. You can follow @IntelEdge on Twitter and tweet them your favourite game with the hashtag #IntelInspire. And you'll be entered to win a Lenovo U410 Ultrabook. Also they have a new app you people might find interesting: intel.ly/104lmKM
Also does anyone have any recommendations on M-ITX boards with good WiFi on them?Last edited by mmoca9f8cb92b6; 2013-03-22 at 04:40 PM.

I think AsRock has one, I think the Asus P8Z77-I deluxe has WiFi too.

I am suprised those things don't have PS/2. I am trying to build a small office computer for my dad and he needs a good wifi, but his old shitty keyboard is PS/2. Guess I could always get a PS/2 to USB adapter.

I'd upgrade to haswell just to build a new pc. Building one is more exciting than having one imo...

I might have a crappy net, they at least don't mess with anything or try to filter anything, one reason why I like it even though it is slow. Originally Posted by llDemonll

Finally! My Titan is in house! Will be installing it tomorrow, need to offload either the Matrix7970 or the GTX680. If I offload the Matrix I will have to install the GTX680 in my gf's rig, which I can't be bothered doing tonight. But.... 2morrow your OC will be beaten Shroud
And the Gigabyte sticker comes right off, luckily, after I heat it with a blowdryer first to not leave glue on the card. The mouse mat that came with it was also very nice.

Hehe, I might have an edge on you there with the 3770K :P
Let the battle of the Titans begin!

CPU itself does have an effect on overall score though.
