I just assembled a new build:
AMD FX6300
AMD A780-MB motherboard
8g ddr-3 1600 stick
1tb seagate barracuda (Os is running off this)
refurbished 4tb harddrive off ebay, a white label 4TB 3.5" 7200 WL4000GSA6472E
AMD Radeon HD 6670 1GB GDDR3
Fresh windows 8.1 install
I assembled everything with no problem. Both hard drives seem to be working well. The os is running fine, but the overall computer seems a bit slow to me. I was thinking that going from a dual core to a 6 core, and from 4g of ram to 8, that I would have way more speed. I would say it's on par or maybe even a bit slower than my old computer. I installed the motherboard drivers (although I think it was just sound) and the video card drivers. Everything else is showing up to date in hardware management. The only things I've installed are firefox and mutorrent. There is no virus software, nothing. Videos seem to run fine, and youtube is buffering faster than my old pc. Once I'm on a page it's fine, but If open a lot of tabs in firefox sometimes I get "not responding" for a moment before it will let me click anything. That's with only firefox running and no other programs. (mutorrent isn't on in the background). Anything flash, or facebook seems to be the worst. But sometimes even just clicking a new tab takes a second for it to pop up.
