Intel k!lls it completely still... http://www.overclock.net/hardware-ne...ws-thread.html !! me for buying this Crosshair V before waiting for reviews... Looks like i'll be keeping/selling current rig and potentially going intel from now on... Damn AMD... you failed big time...  |

| Yeah I was considering to go the amd route, but I decided against it. | |

| The funniest thing is that it actually performs WORSE than the older CPU's in single threaded performance (i.e. Most games)... so that means it would be a downgrade from what I have in the 1090t... !!in fail | |

| Bummer. Well you can wait for now till intel releases ivy bridge, and you can sell your rig then and upgrade. | |

I JUST sold my CPU, motherboard and cooler... [pic] it served me well... Im really surprised at how quickly I was able to find someone to buy it... good stuff... Im either thinking about getting a 2500k and waiting for IvyBridge later on... 2600k is nice but I just need it for gaming which the i5 is perfect for... Im gonna get water-cooling, still can't decide which kit... Peace out AMD! | ||

| hmm glad I didn't buy a am3+ board. Waiting for the i5-2500k to drop. SO the new intel processors would work on the lga 1155 socket? I'm clueless when it comes to intel sockets. Anyways I'm not ready to buy anything till after x-mas. Just buying a megaflow 200m and maybe some cathodes. Time to payoff and save. Last edited by YoungRay20; 10-12-2011 at 07:25 PM.. | |

| I think the whole thing about these Gen3 mobos is that they support not just pcie 3.0 but IvyBridge as well so... | |

| Think I might hold off till Piledriver comes out. I really need to learn how to OC via the BIOS. I have a decent rig so I should be able to get to 4ghz no prob. Might buy that H100 that you mentioned to me Russ. | |
