  1. What resolution is this using? and also try running AIDA64 for a long period of time and seeing if there are any issues.
  2. Right now I have a Enthoo Evolv mAtx case with an asus motherboard, 16gb of RAM, an intel i5 4690k with a 120mm AIO watercooler (NZXT , a gtx 970. Using a 144hz 1080p display. I was thinking getting a small form factor PC because I need to transport it often and it would be more convenient. I don't have a fixed budget but around 1000$. More if needed. What are some good small form factor cases for a project like this. I use my PC for gaming, video editing, and autoCAD. I was thinking of getting a new motherboard + CPU (keep watercooler if it will fit), new case + powersupply, keeping the display and GPU for now, upgrade soon to a gtx 1080 and a better display.
  3. BTW, does anyone know when it is being released in europe?
  4. Surface is the way for me, I have used the Pro and Pro 2, both were a great experience. I am thinking for upgrading to the Book from my Pro 2. I find it great for my needs. Anyone on here have the Surface Book, please message if you do.
  5. I know,but my main reason for getting the Surface book is the touchscreen and using it for productivity and design, etc.
  6. Yeah, that's I heard, just want to see if there would be a huge difference for gaming if I got the model with the dGPU(940m I think?)
  7. 6th Generation Intel Core i5-6300U (15w) "NVIDIA GeForce" (Approx. GT 940M) w/1GB GDDR5 or 6th Generation Intel Core i5-6300U (15w) No 960m Edit: Does anyone have the device or have some benchmark with these kind of games( dota, HOtS, etc)
  8. The reason I was considering it was that my friend uses a 2014 Macbook air and it can run LoL at low settings 60 fps and the Surface Book uses Skylake and therefore has a much better iGPU. I am not looking to play demanding titles. This is the reason I am looking for advice from owners of the device.
  9. I am considering getting the Surface Book for productivity purpose, but I am also considering it for some light gaming. Does anyone here have one? My Questions are how much fps would you get in games such as Hearthstone,League of Legends and Counter Strike Global Offensive. Either at native resolution or 1080p. Would these games run at 60 fps at medium settings? I am not sure if I should get the regular I5 version or the version with the dGPU.
  10. Thanks for the help, I will try getting the exact names of all the equiment. What are the best astrophotography forums?
  11. I have recently got access to a FLI Microline camera with a filter wheel, which are both mounted to a large telescope and a mount which I control with TheSkyX Pro. I am able to focus the telescope to an object, but when I try to use the FLI grab software to take a picture, I get a black image with a lot of small dots, and very low clarity, I tried different exposure times aswell. I will try using the equiment again tonight and check if the filters and the camera are installed correctly.
  12. Looks quite good, but do you really need a 280mm cpu cooler, and any reputable powersupply will be ok, evga, corsair, etc. I would say about 500 watts.
  13. I would prefer a 1440p monitor.
