    List your hardware. I'm on phone so can't be added looking at profiles. The clear CMOS button is the same as above

    Oh cool, a mech club! I see loads of you guys have Full-size boards or TKLs, hope you don't mind a bit of 60% action  
    My current daily driver is a Sentraq S60-X with Gateron Browns and one MX Lock switch. Keycaps are White PBT from NPKC, some of which I've dyed orange with iDye Poly.
     

     
    Firmware is a custom port to QMK, as the S60-X only came with TMK at the time I bought it. You can see the layout here, it's mostly standard ANSI except for the split right shift. I'm using US-International to input the German special characters Ä, Ö, Ü and ß.

    AmbellinaThePrise got a reaction from JoostinOnline in The 1060 3GB is a far better deal than the 1060 6GB   
    I mean, if it's doing fine at 1440p in GTA 5 and SW:Bf then it's quite clear that at 1080p, where this card would mostly be used, then I would agree that it is the better choice for the gamer on a tight budget. At that point you have to wonder if all the pushing for the AMD cards because of Freesync makes any sense at all. 
     
    If you're on such a budget that you can't put forth the extra money for the negligible performance increase of the 6GB, then I would doubt buy a monitor more expensive than your GPU is a wise decision either. And that's coming from someone with the performance equivalent of the RX480 (R9 390) and a Freesync monitor.

    Might be better to wait till you can budget a FULL PC rebuild, If you want to upgrade CPU, Motherboard and RAM might as well wait till you have the budget for a GPU that would make the total investment worth it.

    that's why back when I was more active with giving suggested builds in the build help forum I always disagreed with people that always suggested that Xeon over a 4790k

    AmbellinaThePrise got a reaction from Jumper118 in Post your Cinebench R20+15+R11.5+2003 Scores **Don't Read The OP PLZ**   
    New score with my current daily OC. Gonna run one again with a quite higher OC just to see how far I can take it. But this is definitely better than my last score and I'm pretty happy about that.  
    Edit: Gave up on the highly OC run with my GPU because as I was gradually running over and over with each new overclock I wasn't really noticing much of a difference each time, a couple points, and after a little bit the score actually went down from my daily OC, which was weird, even with nothing else running. Probably too unstable and was throttling my card, I'd imagine. Oh well, this second run with my Daily OC and running the Open GL test I got a 13 point improvement on the CPU score and an 11 FPS improvement on the OpenGL bench from the first score I posted. Should move me up the list to tie with the highest score I have seen from this CPU. Woo!

    If it's overclocked, maybe it's that whole "pulling too much current from the motherboard" thing. It doesn't look like you have that great of a board, so maybe the traces just aren't happy.

    Will do. Got lazy for a moment. Spent a lot of time tweaking the OC on my 390 today and still never got around to downloading CPU Z.

    You've got a 660w PSU it looks like, so I would suggest the 390. You're not going to encounter any issues at 1080p with it for sure.

    AmbellinaThePrise got a reaction from Jumper118 in Unigine Valley Benchmark Scores Thread + SUPERPOSITION ***Over 1000 Submissions!***   
    The temperature readout was all kinds of wrong, giving me anywhere between 0 degrees Celsius all the way to 1,800,000 + degrees Celsius between each of 9 consecutive runs (trying to find a stable OC.) If anyone could tell me why that is, I would appreciate it. MSI Afterburner reports that my card was running at about 73C average on this run. Turns out, in fact that this card doesn't overclock as well as some probably. anything above this was giving me some artifacts in the rainy scenes. Finally found a stable run and I don't think the score is all too bad.
     
    (BTW, how do you save the screenshots from Valley and where should I direct them to? I ended up snapping a pic with my phone. Oh well.)

    While I will vouch for the G710(non plus, mine has MX blues) as a great keyboard, I only bought it because it was 50 bucks on black Friday. I was actually planning on the Quickfire TK otherwise. It takes up less space, if you're not crunching numbers fairly often, the numpad is kind of pointless to have, IMO. The quickfire also feels super solid, and doesn't look outlandish like the “h4rdc0re g43mer” look that the g710 seems to aim for.

    Yeah, it's not the greatest looker, but it lasted me well until I got my mech. I would recommend the k30 by far if that aesthetic is all that will satisfy your wants. Its no k70, but it kind of looks like one.

    Input lag, I'm sure you mean. The response time is 4ms, but that only says much in regards to ghosting, and even then, not so much. Input lag is different, and is why I'm asking. And As with most IPS panels, below 10ms input lag is unlikely.
