Been reading about new AMD ZEN cpu's and how they supposedly will out perform intel 5960x or something similar.
They say the AMD ZEN cpu is $500 about half of the intel cpu which is around $1k.
Be interesting if this is true cos then we may all finally have a worthy alternative!
Which will push intels prices down ! Yeah !
So in the next 4 months we will will know for sure. Cant wait !!!!

Nice rig there INKoRP !

[INKoRP]

hehe ta. Anyone reckon it's worth switching to Windows 10?

[GURU]

i aint tried it as yet for my main system but my son has been using it recently with a new gaming beast build about a month ago, and he says he is thinking of switching back to win7 ? my cousin uses it and thinks it is good!

dunno really?

[kanonfoda]

I upgraded to win 10 but as my pc is so old I can't really give you any clues. Haven't really had any issues with it though.

[INKoRP]

That's promising, any issues with not so legal software?

[Saratoga]

Is there any other sort ?

[GURU]

if ya win 10 is not so legal then it/you probly wont care if everything else is not so legal either !

ie: they will play nicely together !

[kanonfoda]

Win 10 is legit and it hasn't had any issues with what I have installed. I am not listing any software

[Saratoga]

Porn doesnt count as software

[INKoRP]

So far so good on Windows 10. Anyone looking to upgrade from 7/8 still can btw

[Rusty]

No issues with Windows 10 both Personally and in the workplace.
Sadly a lot of upgrades from Windows 7/8 will nearly all be non UEFI... which is not ideal.
Update your BIOS and a fresh install > Upgrade if you can =]

[INKoRP]

Good tip Rusty. I have downloaded a copy. I'll switch next time the PC needs a refresh

[GURU]
