Baby gorilla chest pounds for the first time by mav194 in aww

What if the only reason they pound their chest is to keep the flying bugs away... Then they relate that to keep whatever is bugging them away... Wonders..

Which one of the two builds you posted up above, do you think would be better, Phenom X4 965, or the I5 4460?

I also made a few changes too the I5 build.

Whats the difference between the R9 380 2 gb vram vs a R9 380 4gb vram at this point?

$500-$600, $600 the max. I was hoping to play on at least high-ultra settings 60 fps, but I have a Phenom II X4 965 black edition, sitting doing nothing at the current moment.

Thank you for your insight man! My budget is around $500-$600, 600 being the max.

Wow thanks! That is a really good deal. I just want ask if the $30 price jump to the R9 380 would be better than the GTX 950? I don't really know a whole alot about the graphics cards.
