motherboard box makes a handy non-conductive test bench but for now yes just did with
all the noise getting made about proper multi-core supporting games with mantle
like Battlefield foreign beef and DirectX an upcoming games in it's as good a time as any
to pick up a CPU that supports more threads our choice was the Intel Core i + km all it does
have
plenty a PCI Express . lanes for high-bandwidth graphics cards and other future expansion
cards and support for games and ddr memory with relatively inexpensive eight gig
unbuffered DIMMs it simply came down to the fact that it's intel's least expensive six core
p.m. you
and we really wanted all damn course so lift up both retention arms one on each side of
the socket then pull up the whole downplayed or and the CPU by matching the corner on
your CPU with a triangle with the corresponding triangle corner on the socket then inserted
gently ensuring that the little plastic knob in the socket
align with the ones that are on the CPU and self
I usually get the CPU a slight waco to ensure that it is seated correctly the whole process
should not require any force up to this point next lower the whole downplayed and lower
first
the retention on the locks down the whole downplayed men
the second one and the little cover will pop off just like that
r Memory selection world surprised anyone who watched my overview and key skills Rip-
jaws equine channel ddr megahertz ran
we went with high-speed memory because I was becoming more for what and some games
are actually starting to benefit from it
and with ruin overkill for gaming going to get in here for content creators
who also want to do some media work with large files were not gaining pay for example
recording and editing game streams start by identifying the color matched slot
on your motherboard and opening up the retention clips
on either side I recommend using the ones
furthest away from the CPU socket first for marginally better airflow around the sock area
a line each game according to the plasticky in the slot
and the notch in the bottom of the memory module then
it first insert one side into the side without the clips
then the other side with the clips do a quick double check to make sure to one correctly
then
press down firmly on both side the module until the retention clips snaps back into place
on its own
repeat for the second slot on the side then
