Probably not. I doubt the internet connection you're using can go that fast; the only use for speed faster than your internet connection is for transfering files between computers on a LAN. Can't hurt though. A connector will all four major wireless standards (a/b/g/n) should cover your bases there. Even if there's some mix-up, the router can probably switch to a wireless standard your adapter can use.

P.S. I'm going to go ahead and assume you have your neighbor's permission.

http://lenzfire.com/2012/01/q1-2012-scheduled-gcn-based-radeon-hd-7000-series-gpus-32528/

Until Now…

8th December – AMD Radeon HD 7000 series Preview
22nd December – AMD Radeon HD 7970 Preview for public
9th January – Official Release of Radeon HD 7970 (originally planned for HD 7950 3 GB version too)
To Happen…

31st January – Official Release of Radeon HD 7950 3GB ($449)
Mid February – Radeon HD 7770 1GB ($149) and HD 7570 1GB ($139) will be released
Mid February to Mid-March – A breakthrough for AMD by releasing Radeon HD 7850 2GB ($249) and HD 7870 2GB ($299)
Mid-March to April – Radeon HD 7990 6GB ($849), HD 7950 1.5GB ($399) and HD 7850 1GB ($219)


Code names are as expected.

1gb 7850 is expected to be $219, and 7870 is $299.

I just wish I knew if one was a die shrink of a different one or whats the deal there. 7770's are supposed to be released next for about $149

What? If 7850 is a die shrink than 7870 is a die-shrink since both of them are based on Pitcairn... how can one Pitcairn be a die-shrink and the other not?

Browsing overclock.net it seems pretty widely assumed that 7850 = shrunk 6950 and 7870 = shrunk 6970. No idea on lower end 7whatevers

Depends on what kind of music you listen to, if you're in a noisy environment or one where you shouldn't bother other people, etc.

Right well, thats what I want to know! Is Pitcairn a die shrink?

Same with Cape Verde. Are we gonna get identical 5770's again?

Im hoping none of these are 40nm at least.

They are reusing 6-series cards in the 7 series so yeah, your fears are correct. As I understand it HD7350, HD7450, HD7470, HD7570, HD7670, will be all 40nm cards from the 6-series. Pretty dirty but yeah, it's mostly for the OEM market.

That's pretty much the best you're going to get without going above your budget.

Yeah, of course it can run sc2 very well. And there isn't much to complain about really. The Bitfenix cases are quite new but they got pretty positive reviews so yeah... The PSU is a bit loud under load I've heard, but other than that it's one of the better psus in that pricerange.

But the 6850 card is a bit expensive, I know it's sapphire OC and pretty silent fans but I think it'd be better to go for a 6870 if there wasn't any special reason you chose that.

Well the only reason was pretty much it's price, the 6870 is about 40€ more, wich isn't that much, but I am working on with a limited budget, I'll see if I can make it fit in there.
Thanks for the replys.

it is?
There were 6870 cards cheaper than the one you linked.
Sapphires own card is essentially the same price as the 6850.
