  1. You would upgrade depending on your needs. If you are a heavy multitasker then go for Ryzen, or just wait more for the cpu's releasing this year. Currently I don't see much reason to upgrade in your situation.
  2. If all you will do is gaming, then that intel CPU is the better choice.
  3. I read through the thread and didn't see anyone suggest this. Some games have weird issues with power management. In Nvidia control panel under global options, look for power management mode and set it to prefer maximum performance. I don't think you need to overclock anything to solve any of those problems. Also make sure your game is Full Screen, and not Windowed or Borderless.
  4. I have both an IPS and TN 144hz. The color difference is noticeable. I use the TN 144hz for gaming. The IPS has noticeable Input lag and a slight motion blur < would never use it for gaming. I think it would be best to get an higher grade LED 144hz instead of TN, like those from BenQ if you wanted "gaming".
  5. Oh, this system actually seems pretty good. I would buy it, though I'm only looking at Ryzen builds now.
  6. Do you get 144 fps when not streaming? The above mentioned using Quicksync and NVENC which takes the load off the cpu. The idea being your CPU can focus on LoL. You can also build a dedicated streaming pc (dual pc setup) though the setup can be complex when it comes to audio.
  7. I have an AIO water cooled 970, and the biggest thing I loved about it, was the fact that I never had to worry about overheating or dust on my motherboard. For me, those long term goals were ideal. If you can afford it, I think it the best option. Nothing is wrong with the air coolers either.
  8. Something like this you can use a custom Website solution or buy ready made solutions. In the end he really needs inventory system, but you will have to find the best for him, in terms of cost, ease of use and actually bringing value to his business. Small to medium size businesses can spend 3 months or longer on making a choice like this purely with research. http://www.capterra.com/inventory-management-software/
  9. The Fan hub is nice but I do not remember everything about it and I can not tell if it was ever updated. I will be honest, I would not recommend it unless you really have to. The side panel is on very tight, and it will press against those fan headers. If you will plan your build, get a motherboard that has enough fan ports and PWM extensions if you need.
  10. Thanks, actually this and the Stacker are the only ones I could find. I imagined a case wide enough the mini would be perpendicular to the atx, like an L. Is anyone able to find other options?
  11. Hey all, I've been looking for a Dual PC case. As the title mentioned, I do want to build a dual pc streaming setup. As such, I want to hold an ATX and Micro/Mini ATX in one case. I've been searching but ideally, I would like to find one where the ATX has a standard layout, but the Mini ATX sits below the ATX, on top of a power supply shroud. I suppose this is very very niche because I can't seem to find any like this.
  12. I'll be honest, I don't notice any screen tearing at all so I agree with you. If you want to take advantage of 144hz, you would need your game to be full screen. In windowed mode (including borderless), the GPU resources are shared and the game will actually look choppy on 144hz even if you had some large framerate. This is in addition to the worse response time as you mentioned. The only game this has no relevance to is Forza Horizon 3 which uses some advanced direct X feature I know little of
