Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

Hey there all VN Peeps. I am looking to build another system in January. Ill have about $2000 to spend and wanted to get a decent system going. It seems that Sandy Bridge 2600K is the way to go. Does anyone know what Ivy Bridge will be like or if it will be a significant enough jump to warrant getting it?
IS there any hardware that you think is going to be a good improvement in January vrs today?
Oh and I have been coming here for advice for a while and I appreciate all of your input.

On one note. I updated my profile and logged into the new IGN newtwork thingy. NOWHERE could I find a link BACK to the VN boards. Is this intentional or are these boards closing?

I'd just stick with a sandy bridge... maybe an i7 2600k or something similar. Then maybe spend a bit on a home NAS for storage and backup.
