Hello Adriana. The Way I do it is by just hitting the Prtsc/SysRq key (print screen). Then paste it into paint. Save it as a JPEG to somewhere (I usually use desktop or my docs/pictures) then upload it to a free hosing service like this one-

Once the image has been uploaded the easiest way to post it here is so right click the image - select "copy" and simply "paste" (or control/V) it into the message/reply box here you should see it.

That's a matter of opinion but Realtek vs Intel, not not on my side would I ever buy that. Intel cards never die.

Yeah the R280 has marvelous graphics and I really do appreciate it. It seemed for quite a few years the onboard sound was getting better and better and all of a sudden it went down hill again and not sure exactly when or why.

 

 

 

Well concerning intel gigabit NIC's, realtek NIC's are about as good, and just as reliable. I'll give you the onboard sound bit though I prefer sound cards just like you, because as I posted in TSF onboard sound even the best doesn't compare to a decent sound card especially if you are using good speakers and higher end headsets. Your APU really does have stunningly good graphics though I have built a few of those myself, and your R9 280x is primarily a gamer card or mining card I believe it's a bit faster than the older HD 7950 and nearly on part with an HD 7970, but even if you aren't a gamer it's really nice to have.

A R280 card here costs $700+. Out of the question price wise.

 

That's a lotta' moo, Dougie.

I ended up opting for a Radeon HD 7800 series Sapphire/PC Partner instead as I only Photoshop and never play games.

Some things are reasonable here and some very expensive compared to the US.

A galaxy GTX780 TI 3GB5 HOF Super OC costs $799. Must be cheaper in the US surely.

I will check tomorrow, Rich.

Best thing I bought for the latest build was the Tower ( Coolmaster HAF X ) Brilliant and so much space.

Like the Sata Docks in the front cover. Don't have to take the side panel off as much.

I have a Sapphire Radeon HD-7870 2GB, Dougie. I think I paid approximately $200. for it at Newegg.

Seems England is the place to buy it then.

£160 here .... which equates to approx 100 us dollars or 88 aus dollars. :)
