My friends graphics card was faulty so is the

ASUS Nvidia Geforce GTX 560

good and is it better than the

ASUS AMD Radeon 6850

The Nvidia costs 150 so if there's a better one for that price would yo be able to tell me :3

Thanks Gonna send you a bunch of rep for helping me before <3

Yeah, the 560's good! Not a whole lot better than the 6850, though. Whether it's worth it or not depends on the price.

You know what a flash drive is? It's basically a really big one (capacity wise). Normal hard drives are mechanical or have moving parts. This gives a large amount of room for failure. This is an advantage too because standard hard drives can come in massive capacities. Standard drives also come in much much cheaper per-gigabyte. Though it is kinda strange because 1TB is about $100 but 500GB comes in at around $80.
Anyways, SSDs have no moving parts and therefore have a minuscule failure rate. They come in low capacities but are extremely fast. They are always recommended for gamers and enthusiasts for OS and games. Recommended capacities are 120/128GB. Some good brands are Samsung, Crucial, OCZ (Vertex 4), Kingston (HyperX).
At least, that's my take on SSDs.

Of course I could. The 6450 is practically nothing at all. Can he fill out the form? Don't want to get him something he doesn't want or omit something he does.

ASRock Z77 Extreme4, but upgrading his motherboard won't do anything and it may not be compatible with his CPU.
