This is useful to see because often people neglect to shop around and go with tried and trusted instead of maybe even getting a better card from another dealer, for the same price instead

List will be up later today folks :)

Well I found this pretty interesting since I don't take any of these for granted since I don't use any of these features even though I have them or at least most of them with my pc. Interesting to see that it can be such a vital aspect to certain people, I just like to have them for bragging rights over my less endowed friends lol

Every 6 months, the thermal paste from my CPU melts....yeah I need to clean more often, which is why proper cooling is essential for me!

http://mygaming.co.za/news/hardware/...pus-in-sa.html
What I would like to have know is how this generation of CPUs holds up verse the older sandybridge and whether its even worth upgrading. Also the pricing on i3. I wouldnt say you HAVE to have an i5 in a gaming PC.

Found the pricing a bit over-the-top when it said best priced graphics as the topic title. I was expecting the lowest prices for reasonably useful graphics cards.

http://mygaming.co.za/news/hardware/...-the-hype.html
I thought this was a really good article with plenty of insightful information which most gamers should actually read because a lot of gamers I know buy into the hype about a fancy mouse and all the features that come with these ridiculous looking mice these days. I have had a Logitech MX518 for about 7 years and recently bought the Logitech G400 which is basically just a newer look same model as the MX518 and I absolutely love it. DO NOT buy into all these other features, for me all that matters is a good feel realiable mouse with atleast 2 sides buttons to make my life easier but again that is just my opinion which happens to agree with the article :D

I am currently broke as can be, so this article is quite pertinent to my situation. I've got an okay pc, but im still playing on one of the old optical mouses I picked up about 10 years ago. What I really love about this kind of article is that it never fails to set off hundreds of comment with everyone giving their opinion on the subject; what is more important in choosing a gaming aid than the opinion of fellow gamers who have first-hand experience with the subject matter?
One thing that would help in this article is a voting tab where guys can choose their favorite pc parts provider.

Me being an audio junkie am always looking forward to any new latest hardware in audio.

More is more and although this is very informative , for me pricing is about what I can get when I have the Money and who has the stock at the time.

Why should almost never buy high end components
As fool and his money, as they say, are soon parted, and the marketing departments who work for hardware manufacturers love to trumpet the often superfluous to all but the most demanding hardware "enthusiasts" exclusive or premium features that invariably make such products cost three or more times as much as a more sensible mainboard that would serve as a perfectly adequate base for a PC build, especially for those without the most cavernous of pockets, or with a cavalier approach to credit and living within one's means.
As I discovered after selling my Radeon HD 6870, with very little work, it is often possible to play all but the most cutting edge of titles provided that plot and gameplay are of greater value to you than approaching photo-realism. [Diablo 3 on Intel integrated graphics, for example. ;-) ]

Good too finally see some info about the card that will most likely be my next upgrade ! Enjoyed the read, pretty informative!

Nice to see CPU prices laid out in a grid format. Give one a good idea of how much variation there is between suppliers (fairly little).

http://mygaming.co.za/news/hardware/...-yourself.html
Although its not a problem for me, Pc's do overheat in summer and can cause lasting damage, although its mainly the guys that Overclock that see dramatic temp rises in summer if their cooling isn't done properly. Then there is always our fantastic lightning storms in Jhb...I would advise anyone even with a ups to rather switch off and unplug all you're hardware, not just you're pc. Nice to see a great hardware article that has some tips and helps the not so informed gamers/hardware junkies out there.

Almost started crying after seeing this, spent my last money on a GTX550Ti only to find out there is better Mid range cards out there and PC Format rated this card lower than a long drop's first dump.

What a Mess, I thought Nvidia is going forward, But it looks like they took this one off a truck somewhere. I think my GTS250 is much better.... LOL :)
