Jul 28, 2010 · Processors: AMD
Today we shall try to answer the following question. What's better: a triple-core CPU with 512KB L2 per core or a dual-core CPU with 1024KB L2 per core?

Foxconn A9DA-S Motherboard
Jul 23, 2010 · Motherboards
Foxconn A9DA-S is a very good product for PC builders, because it 1) is up-to-date and 2) doesn't have any extras, so it should be affordable.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 768MB is quite a success, considering the recommended price.

ASUS P7H57D-V EVO Motherboard
Jun 22, 2010 · Motherboards
ASUS P7H57D-V EVO is definitely an original motherboard. However, while the support for the latest peripheral interfaces is nice, the simultaneous support for the integrated graphics and multiple discrete graphics cards seems to be a purely marketing feature that will hardly be useful. But at least you have the freedom to use anything from a low-end CPU and integrated graphics to a top-class quad-core CPU with two discrete graphics cards.
