So you reckon it’s worth upgrading the cpu?

Yeh

The 2060 is better than the 1660

The gpu usually runs at 10% or less most of the time and I am running gta 5 vanilla no mods

Well gta 5 is a good example, it does drop down to 45fps quite a lot and the temps are pretty good, the cpu is liquid cooled and doesn't get above 50c and the gpu doesn’t go over 60 and I am 100% sure that the hdmi is plugged into the correct socket

Hi, this is post is here because it’s a bit of all components. So I have a GTX 1080Ti Asus ROG strix OC (really high end 1080ti) with a i7 4790 not overclockable, 16gb of ddr3 1600mhz ram and my games are struggling to play high settings at 1080p which is really frustrating as I paid around 1k for my gpu during the bitcoin craze last year. I am thinking about upgrading my motherboard, ram and cpu to something quicker like a i7 9700k and some new gskill rgb ram. Do you think this will solve my problems?

Thank you guys for your help!

I will also have plans for overclocking

Hi! I’m really stuck on which cpu I should get. First off I only play games on a 1080p monitor ( I know that my setup is overkill but I will get a new 1440p or 4K display ) and I want to play on max settings. I have a GTX 1080 TI Strix OC and a i7 4790. Now to the juice I have heard that the i7 is not as good because it’s not capable of hyper threading however the i9 shows minimal performance boost in FPS but will it’s extra 8 threads help in general? so I have no idea and is it worth to splash out another £100 to future proof my system and I will not go to ryzen as I would prefer intel. Many thanks!

Hi all, a bit of a silly question but i have the Asus ROG strix 1080 TI and on the box it sayis it supports DirectX 12 but in games i am running on Dx 11, is there a way to download it or enable it? Many thanks!

Wouldn’t a 3Gb gpu be a bit limiting? And also would I have to buy windows 10 or is there a way to get it for free?

I have no preference nor does my friend

Hi all! My friend wants a gaming pc but wants help with finding all of the parts but I am not 100% certain with what parts he should get, I’m thinking on the line of an i5 with a GTX or Radeon gpu, he says that he will mostly play BO4 and Fortnite *facepalms* but still wants room for future upgrades. many thanks!

Hi! i am going to get a 6Tb Hdd to upgrade my 2 1Tb Hdd but i have heard that if i move everything over it would mess a lot of programs up due to the path being moved and i was wondering if there was any way to make it still work after the move, my windows and user folders will stay on my SSD. Many Thanks!

Hi all! i have been looking at Z390 mobos and i have seen them going up into the £400 range, whats the actual benefit of paying £400 when i could get for £120-£200. i know that there might be more features like more Sata cables and ports but is it really worth that much more? Many thanks!

this is just an idea but maybe you buy a cheaper LGA 1150 board and save for a newer LGA1151 and get a whole new pc upgrade because the 4th gen and previous CPUs are getting slightly outdated, I am not saying that is defiantly true but its just my opinion

Hello all! Hope that you had a great New Year! What is the difference between a DP cable and a HDMI cable? Does the DP cable give higher fps or is it just support for 4K resolution. (my monitor is 1080p) My specs are: GTX 1080TI Asus ROG Strix OC (monitor) S27D590C

Hi all! i saw this Vengeance pro 16Gb PC3-19200 2400Mhz Ram and I saw that my CPU doesn’t support it but I have heard that people use it with my CPU, I have the I7 4790 ( not K ) with a H81M-S2H Mobo, I am just not sure, even pcpartpicker is saying that it should be ok but I want other advice. Many thanks!

could you provide a link for authenticity?

Yes but my current ram doesn’t support XMP and I am hoping that the new ram will enable the XMP profile and let my CPU and GPU work harder because they don’t go over 65% utilisation during load

Hi all, hope you had a good Christmas! I am having a issue where my utilisation doesn't go over 65% and usually dips into the 30-50fps range, this is because i believe that my ram is bottle-necking my whole rig as It runs at a whopping 800Mhz ( in images ) and it doesn't support XMP profiles so if i replace it with a ram module kit that supports XMP will that fix the issues? https://www.amazon.co.uk/HyperX-HX318C10FRK2-16-Memory-Module/dp/B00J8E8ZOC/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1545843292&sr=8-4&keywords=ram+ddr3+16gb
