10 things Haiden wants to buy!!!

Dual-core processors are starting to become a thing of the past. To be a bit advanced with the processor world, you need to have at least the tri-core or quad-core. I am an AMD fan so I am using the AMD Athlon X2 5200+. Its an overclocked version of the 5200 which was only 2.6 ghz, mine is 2.7 ghz overclocked to 3.01 ghz. Since my motherboard is compatible with AMD phenom x3 and phenom 2 x4(tri and quad core processors), If i had extra money I would buy atleast the AMD phenom 2.3 ghz.





Friends say that upgrading from dual-core to tri-core does not make much difference. He has a point. Buying a phenom tri-core that has 2.3 ghz x 3 would be 6.9 total speed. In comparison to the dual core of 2.7 overclocked to 3.01 x 2 is about 6.0 processing speed. the difference between the 2 is not that significant but then, the price is. I bought my processor for around Php 3000 while the phenom that I want to buy is around twice the price. But a computer technician told me that having 3 cores is much better than 2 because it would be like 3 calculating at once. When I get to buy this chip, I will update you guys if there is really a signifant difference with the processing speed in my computer.

10 things Haiden wants to buy!!!

There are so many things I want to buy for my computer alone. The problem with this is that the technology sector rapidly changes. So after a few years of even weeks, the product I am wanting is considered as "old" so I'm wanting to buy products that could last atleast 2 years in the market. and this next component for my computer would be an even better RAM memory. I am using now the basic Kingston 4gb ram, ddr2, which is only 800mhz. I am wanting to buy the Corsair Dominator2gbx2,also ddr2, but with 1066 mhz.


This makes reading,disposing, or processing faster compared to only 800 mhz of memory. This RAM is also made to be flexible to make overclocking easy. Though im not sure if my motherboard is capable of reading mhz faster than 1066, atleast I can use it in the future when 1066mhz is just the mainstream.

10 things Haiden wants to buy!!!

After the keyboard, the next thing I want to buy for my computer would be a high performance mouse. I have been browsing over the internet to look for a product that is good for gaming. After finding this product, I asked around to gather reviews about the mouse and I got some pretty good feedback. This product is the Razer Salmosa.

Razer Salmosa is the excellent gaming mouse because its superb features. It has 1800 dpi sensors(this is what eads the movement of the mouse)c ompared with the standard dpi of infrared mice which is only 800 dpi. So its ultra sensitive. Every movement of the hand is read by the mouse therefore making clicking objects, especially in games, more precise. The buttons have the "hyper response" feature which makes the clicking of the mouse buttons very quick without delay. There are so many other features to this gaming product, but these are the only specifications that I understand.

This product costs about Php 2,050. This is probably one if the cheapest of its price since I got it from a good source in the internet. There are other mice out in the market that has basically the same feature, but its sleek design is what entices me to buy this product instead of the others.

10 things Haiden wants to buy!!!

There are so many things I want to buy. Every time I go to malls there is always something I wished I could buy but I could not because I need to save up money for it. The first thing I would like to buy is something for my computer. I have been building this high performance computer since December of 2008 and there are some things I would like to add to it to make it better. I want to buy a new keyboard for my rig. The keyboard that I want to buy costs around 4k. Its costly for a keyboard, i know, but then it really has benefits.

The keyboard is the Logitech illuminated keyboard. What do we mean by illuminated? The keyboard is laser etched and it has led colors to make it easy to type at night. It's only 9.33 mm thick with a transparent frame. It has cool features like the "Perfect Stroke System" that makes each key closer to one another making it much easier to type. It has the soft hand pad as well to improve comfort when typing. I will probably be more inspired to write blogs typing in a keyboard like this!
