    Roger, check out this video and make up your mind:

    nishank93 got a reaction from Ryker Robb in Is a 60GB SSD good enough for Windows and some small games?   
    It is enough, but I would recommend saving up some more/waiting for a sale and going for 120GB. Get a HDD for games anyway (unless these small games take forever to load).

    Go with a Zen3 or Rocket Lake based computer, perhaps even a Ryzen APU as suggested above, depending on your workload. Maybe even older, if there's a good deal to be found. A used dedicated graphics card (if you can find one for a reasonable price) might be a worthwhile upgrade.
     
    Alder Lake seems great, but a "light" workload doesn't warrant the extra cost.

    Presumably with a 1070, you're playing at 1080p or even 1440p. In that case, go with CPU first. Your 1070 will still hold up at this resolution, and it gives you time to see what RDNA2 brings (even if you're set on Nvidia).
    I'd seriously also consider getting Zen2 still, if you're able to find a good deal around when Zen 3 launches.

    Build is silly. Also, Maximus IX Formula has pretty good onboard MU-MIMO ac Wi-Fi.
    You could also simply go for a ModMic instead.

    If you're concerned, a heatsink remount with new TIM wouldn't hurt. You could also try bumping up the fan speed for the fan on your heatsink, and maybe even the fans in your case as well.
    Your computer will shut itself off closer to 100°C, so you should be fine. I wouldn't be too concerned with 80°C.

    I'm not too sure. Haven't used MSI's overclocking tool before. Run CPU-Z and check what voltage your CPU is at under a gaming load? Should be 1.10 V stock, and not over 1.25 V overclocked (you can push it to 1.30-1.40 V, but I don't recommend it for long term use).
     
    Or a simpler test would be to undo the overclock and see if temperatures drastically improve. A 4GHz overclock isn't spectacular anyway.

    nishank93 got a reaction from shadowbyte in First time AIO questions (h115i)   
    1) I've set mine up to the PWM header, but you have to tell your motherboard to not freak out about CPU fan errors.
    2) I'm not sure. There isn't much benefit into doing push/pull, so I haven't looked into it.
    3) I have a 360mm radiator, and a bunch of other fans, that I'm running off of a PWM splitter that came with my case (Enthoo Luxe).
    4) AIO's have matured enough that this sort of this is a rare occurrence.
  12. Agree
    nishank93 got a reaction from App4that in 980 ti ??? what to buy??   
    If money is no object, then definitely one of the AIO cooled ones. They're just leagues better in terms of temperatures (therefore you can expect better overclockability) and silence.
