he does blink, it’s just an amazing coincidence that whenever you blink, he is aswell.
I wonder how many people will now watch this video without blinking to catch him out…
but the question is.. Does it blend??
good job grate gob
ive got a vaio laptop with an intel core i3 2,13ghz cpu. is the core i5 3,10ghz better? and can i install it on my laptop? are there other things I’ve got to keep in mind when installing a new cpu, such as the fan? I was also thinking about cleaning my pc for dust and putting on new thermal paste, wdyt? The pc’ got 4 ram, but how can i get more? do i have to buy it separately and make sure that it will work with the cpu? I will get somebody to do it all for me, obviously, i’m not good at this:P
Was he eating a hotdog before doing this he has a yellow mustard stain on leftside of his beard!
@maggotgreece he did 0:08
@SweMw2
I have a very crappy laptop that is probably 2/3 years old now, and it gets boiling hot after 30 minutes if I play minecraft FFS, and I can play Starcraft 2 (mostly low settings) without a problem, it’s a great game.
Still not graphic intensive.
He sleeps with his eyes open…
been out of the loop for awhile now… He says that hyper threading is disabled, can you enable it? or do you have to buy a diff model? If so to the latter which cpu is the closest 4core with HT enabled?
Yes, desktop master race, lol. Screen sizes of laptops aren’t big enough anyway, 24″ is perfect for me.
@maggotgreece okay dead set he blinks right at the fucking start of the video.
this is pc’s benchmarking and reviews, not a staring contest.
@MouthofSaurons it is if you only have integrated graphics (=
Is the 2500k good enough for a gtx 670?
i play assasins creed revelations with sandybridge 2500k and work perfectly….
@MouthofSaurons dude i had a amd athlon ii x2 and a xfx 5450 and i couldnt play it on medium-.-
….yeah like 1 time for like 4:12.. HE IS A COOL GUY THOUGH!
I like his videos!
@TheSkittlesNerd actually you can upgrade laptops it just depends on your skill. The easiest things to upgrade are ram and the hard drive. As for as the CPU and GPU you can’t really switch them out without soldering. Also I’m running a laptop more powerful than most desktops that are made for gaming. (cost 1k though lol)). So no not all laptops are horrible for gaming. Sure they have their limits but it is nice to travel and play games like left 4 dead and gta4 on a laptop :D.
@philpwnzu Hahaha! made me laugh out loud!
@SlipAllCityToy -.- on ultra it is
he blinks 0:09- 0:12
@ThePerson258 hi, this CPU is still the ‘go to’ CPU for most people, it is now quite cheap, overclocks amazingly easily and because it is widely used, support will be all over the place!
I reccomend this and a Corsair a50 cooler for overclocking, if not overclocking then the stock heatsink is fine but in the future you can OC this chip if you want to.
Hope I helped 🙂
@MouthofSaurons yep it is
False. At 0:11 he clearly blinks.
@maggotgreece he blinks at 11 seconds
@muffemod yes, just for once…and the video is 4 minutes long…TRY NOT TO BLINK FOR 4 MINUTES!!
i think you’re blind look at 0:10!
I am about to get this motherboard and throw 2x 2gb ram so I can run BF3. Should this run BF3 with an ATI HD 6670 1GB DDR5?
@maggotgreece 0:10 GOTCHA
@AussiesRus1 id say quite alot you can overclock this thing to like 4.3 Ghz with the stock cooler also 😀
You can tell he’s a gamer… gamers don’t blink or else they’ll lose
@danxxlite He probably doesn’t mean SC2 🙂
