I did lots of researching but I still can't decide between Matrix 380 and Matrix Mega 405. Please help.!

I bought the 380 as a gift for my husband. He is very happy with it. He also did a lot of research before letting me know that he preferred the 380 over the 405. He noted that there were some problems with the 405 including it sometimes discharged even with the safety on. I was happy because the 380 cost less than the 405!

I have the 380 and it really is an awesome crossbow which I think is plenty fast. The only con I have is the 260 lb draw weight. Considering that I just don't see any good reason to go with the 405. Before I got the 380 I was thinking maybe it would be worth getting the 405 for the updated scope's low light capabilities but I am definitely satisfied with the one I got. I could easily still use it a half hour after deer hunting closes.

I know what you mean, I went back and forth on the same two crossbows. finally I went with the 380. What made me go with the 380 is the draw weight and the FPS,and there is not that much difference in the two FPS and the 380 is a little cheaper. I have been supper happy with my choice and which of the two you pick I know you will be supper happy to. I hope this helps you out, good luck.

For me I love the 380....it is spot on and was cheaper than the 405....speed is definitely more than enough at the 380.....I heard of some issues with the 405...so all things I would recommend the 380

Well! M5A87 is pretty good board & its supports all AM3+ family processors, Also if you would like to consider new yet affordable '8-core processors' like AMD FX 8-Core Black Edition 125W version (not 200W version as your motherboard has limitation upto 140W only). One more suggestion I personally prefer high frequency DDR RAM modules such as 1600 or 1866 all varies just for just 10-20 bucks compared to standard ones like 1333/1066, this will noticeably improve the application response esp for like cads/games etc who requires low latency access.

Depends on your needs, amigo. Are you looking for the least expensive equivalent? Are you looking to use the same amount you paid originally for the next best? If you have the funds, the Radeon R9 290X is still capable of running all the latest on max settings. The ~$600 I paid for it 2 years ago was a good slurge for my rig, but you can get them for sub-$300 nowadays. I'd suggest sticking with DDR5, look for 3-4GB, and stick with a reputable make so that you don't burn out another card. If you just want to replace this 1GB DDR5, you have a multitude of inexpensive options. If you have 2 x16 PCI-E slots in your MoBo, you can crossfire or SLI for 4GB DDR5 with 2 2GB cards that support it.

Thanks Grandmother Philip:-). I also wanted to know the difference between 460 & 560. Too bad there's not a place on the internet wherein you could type the different makes/models for comparison purposes.

This card is not better than a 980 in terms of vRam and not better in single gpu operations... sort story is, Get the 690 if you plan to use cuda acceleration in programs such as 3ds MAX for iRay/vRay since it has 1000 more "cuda cores" BUT for games i sujest u go with the 980. Look at some online reviews.

The lightning cooler is fantastic, so coupled with the 290x, you should have a very fast card (290x is faster than the 780 and on par with the 780Ti) that runs very cool.I do not have any experience with the Asus Matrix Platinum 780Ti, so I cannot comment on that one.

The 580 has almost double the power, a larger cabinet for better bass and is more money. For $50.00 I'd go with the larger. I have the 575 (no longer made) same cabinet, more power and no digital outputs. Had it 4 years, everyday use and never a problem. I turn mine off when I turn the TV off. For most people it has plenty of bass and there are controls to turn it up or down. I did buy a 555 for my cousin and he's happy with it but hearing it I'd keep mine any day.

A few months ago, I built a computer with an Intel i7-2600k, GTX 570, Asus Maximus IV Extreme and a HAF X. Best yet. It has more power by far than a Quadro 2000. As long as CS6 supports my card, I'm certain that I can run it far better with my GTX 570. If not, I'll find something that can alter the code that will let me use my 570.BTW, my 570 runs CS5.5 premiere perfectly and in realtime.Thanks :)~asuperpower

Nothing really. It's rated at like 5.6 teraflops which is great for things like mining Bitcoin and to has a lot of direct compute power. If you are in the graphics industry you really should be looking at a Quadro or a FireMV card. I Titan is also a good choice because if it dual point floating precision. Also on a side not this card is so loud you would need to shout over it.

accelero s1 passive cooler also a good choice...drop 35 deg. off of stock. For the money the XFX is the best card for the buck...if you got the XXX version. ....and do you care what the card looks like in the case, or on your screen?

I personally regret not going with the M5A99 for 2 reasons. I already had 2 Nvidia cards I planned to SLI and found out this board only supports cross fire. One of the sata ports is blocked by my video card so I am limited in adding drives since I am already using 4 ports.

I really like my Titan Black card! I run everything maxed out and I don't even get slight frame delay. My Card is a Beast! I couldn't tell you anything about the 980. I am currently playing the new Wolfenstein The New Order. Everything is Maxed out and Video Sync is turned on. Glass smooth Graphics and the card runs cool.

As Willie stated, the max will be the lower of the two. I don't mean to be critical but if you weren't already aware of this, perhaps you should do a bit more research prior to starting your build. Best of luck to you.

Sorry Ms. Lake, I can't answer this question. I purchased mine for the Matrix.+

There are some review sites that claim the sound to be better on the 451, but I discern any difference. I will say that when I compared, the 451 were straight out of the box with very little burn in time while the 450 had considerable burn in time so maybe another comparison will yield different results.

Main technical differences are low end (53 vs 60 for the MB42-C), impedence (8 vs 4), size (over an inch taller) and shielding (have vs have not). The Micca MB42X-C is shielded for $40 more. Against that, I'd take the CS10 any day. If your main speakers (or your sub-woofer) cover the bass, and you don't care about shielding, the Micca might be an OK tradeoff if money is tight. All I can say is I haven't been disappointed with my CS10. But note I would've gotten a CS2 but it didn't fit my cabinet (only $25 more).

i like the 410 becuse of the longer battery. but the 440 is newer modell , because it s newer it does not mean that is more faster??? or why the upgrade modell supposed to be better? can i just buy one more battery with it and carry it with me? i don t know what is ddr3 ram , and n455 processor. i m very bad with computers.
