Website traffic

The amount of data sent and received by visitors to a web site is called website traffic. Web traffic has been the largest portion of Internet traffic since the mid-1990s. Website traffic is determined by the number of visitors and the number of pages they visit. Incoming and outgoing traffic are monitored by sites to see which parts or pages of their site are popular and if there are any apparent trends, such as one specific page being viewed mostly by people in a particular country. There are several ways to monitor this traffic and the gathered data is used to help structure sites, highlight security problems or indicate a potential lack of bandwidth not all web traffic is welcome.

Thanks a lot.

Looks like a really good build to me. Should run the latest games for a few years - might want to upgrade the GPU later on. Should last a long while and will run SimCity 4 very nicely

make that 760 a 780ti.

yes it's more expensive at first, but the performance benefits are worth every cent (per se about 50% faster than the 760).

also, in the long run, the 780ti saves you money even cuz it's a hell of a gpu and gives you great performance for much longer than the 760.

further, you can get up to 25% more performance if you put in some extra oc on top of the 780ti's stock-oc of 12% compared to the 780 (taking into account only nvidia's reference clock, I know that msi's 780ti is even better).

no need to mention that the 780ti outpaces the titan in every aspect but g-ram and a little over half the price.

 

this consideration makes the psu a bit of a concern at 600w... a 700w or 750w psu would strongly increase my comfort zone and only costs a few bucks more, if at all.

 

can't complain about the ram, I run the same (the high profile version with the cooling plates) and I'm happy with it. yes, I had to rma it but corsiar support works like a charm and there's really worse things that can go wrong in a pc than the ram.

 

another concern to me is the cpu. for multimedia use the 8350 is really good and 8cores/threads @4ghz and this price read like a good catch, but don't fall for numbers as virtually all gaming benchmarks place it behind the i5 3450 which runs on 4cores/threads @3.1ghz for even a lower price and almost half the power consumption

granted, I am an intel fanboy as literally all my amd machines died on faulty hardware - which wass over 10yrs ago so don't take it as a reference - but looking at the benchmarks, in the mid-range and high-end segment it gets obvious that amd is one or two steps behind intel.

 

and pretty pretty pretty pretty please, for the sake of all that matters to you in this life and all other lifes you might live, keep your fingers off win 8. ever since windows was born, you have to skip every other os because it's crap and 8 again continues this cycle. get yourself win7. if 8 is the way windows works from now on, 7 is the last "real" windows and will grow to xp-fame, promised.

I'd want to run a test or two.  You'll want to lose Windows 8 for 7 unless you really, really need something in 8.  From all reports, 8 is for tablets.

oh wow only now I see that we're talking about a 2nd hand rig... sort of skipped that the first time

still I'd like to keep the ruling on the field standing in terms of the os-thing. 7 is really the way to go. there's contradicting reports about how much 8 sucks or kicks butt, some say it's ok, some say it's not, others say it's basically a desktop port of a touchscreen/mobile os other's say it's that thing of the future. but one thing all have in common: it's gaming capabilities are not the best, especially with xp-era titles you most likely run into serious trouble.

my personal experience is that it's real cool for mobile platforms and if you run your desktop on touchscreen. the offered desktop view is almost as cool as a real desktop os, but it's basically just an app imitating the "common" desktop interface rather than a real mode.

and with all the playful things like xbox and live and all the online features it's just too far away from what I wan't my desktop's os to do. if I need this stuff, there's programs for it, not the os that needs these abilities.

ok you have to put down another 100 bucks for a new win7 license but trust me, it's worth it for gaming purposes.

 

since it's used that's all I would change really.

my initial "criticism" considered the value for money of a newly build pc. I guess you won't pay too much for it anyway. after all, it's a decent running setup. keep in mind that the gpu turns into the first bottleneck in 2 years latest as it causes lag even in todays most demanding titles, e.g. full hd, 8xaa and highest details in max payne 3 won't get you over 30fps
