imkinger got a reaction from handymanshandle in RX 480 vs GTX 1060 with the same price
The CPU will be upgraded no matter what in the following year,I dont expect quite the bump with my current one,I only expect a 40% improvement and when I upgrade my CPU I expect a noticeble but idk how much improvement
ive just realised my situation wont let me even buy the graphics cards,next generation it is.
Maybe VEGA or the next line of pascal or whatever they are going to call it.

imkinger reacted to EmeraldFlame in Should I switch?
Yes you should switch. I'm not a big fan of modem/router combo units normally, but the WRT54 series is so outdated at this point that it is by far better.
With the WRT54G you are talking about extremely slow connection speeds of 54Mbps and only 2.4GHz whereas with that new unit you have access to the new AC standards for wireless which depending on support can go as fast as 1300Mbps on a 5GHz network.
If you're internet is slower than 54Mbps then you honestly may not see much of a difference, but any type of intranet activity (streaming from one computer to another, file transfers, etc) over the network will be more than an order of magnitude faster. You can use the linksys router as a wifi extender, however, you will need to reconfigure it and turn DHCP off and throw it into bridge mode. Just be aware that it will be glacially slow compared to the other access point.

imkinger reacted to EmeraldFlame in Should I switch?
I doubt you will see much of a change at all in wifi coverage, but I've never worked with that specific modem/router combo unit so I couldn't tell you for sure. However it does have both a 5GHz and 2.4GHz band built into it. 5GHz is great for pure speed but has a much smaller coverage area and has a harder time going through things like walls. This is why routers today also still have an older 2.4GHz connection. That 2.4GHz connection is slower than the 5GHz but has a much further range and better penetration. However, on this new unit it supports 802.11n on the 2.4GHz connection which is still an order of magnitude faster than your old unit which was only 802.11g. So while you're overall range is likely to stay about the same your speed will be faster all over and there will be a pocket in the center that's even faster.

imkinger reacted to Aereldor in Cheap Phantom power?
Anything that's rated to provide +48v phantom power to a microphone. Behringer makes a ton of cheap mixers that should be fine if you just want a signal from a microphone and nothing particularly fancy. If you're savvy enough, you could probably build the circuit yourself using an external power adapter for the phantom power and a line-level auxiliary output to go into the microphone input port on your computer.

imkinger reacted to daniellearmouth in Corsair Carbide 88R VS Spec M2
They have the exact same interior.
And I've built in the Corsair 88R before. I, honestly, wouldn't recommend it; it doesn't feel very secure.

imkinger reacted to DaltonM in How did you break your headphones?
One time I was standing on my ear buds when i tried to pull them up lol. I ripped one of the buds off. But it was all good I only ever used one anyway. But the annoying part is I ripped off the right one, which is the one I always used.

imkinger reacted to patrickjp93 in Thermaltake announces new X5 stackable cases
I just want a true desktop that supports up to EATX boards with cable-routing grommets that is only big enough to support full-width GPUs (and up to the length of the 295x2) with a basement to hold drives, a PSU, and a pump (possibly a reservoir too), and then a pedestal that can support at least 2 triple rads or preferably up to 3 quad rads to vent heat out the sides and back. Essentially 400mm total in height for all 3 layers that I can set the monitor on top of. No GPU droop, plenty of cooling capacity, decent cable routing room, and solid construction. Give me that and I won't even care about toolless drive mounting.
