Depends on your needs and your budget, really. Do you need/want it, aswell as being able to afford it? If both are true, I'd say why not, go for it.

Tiny dust particle on the underside of my cpu.
pelark replied to TBFK's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Is it an LGA or PGA socket? I'd personally use compressed air in any case. -
Is GTX 1080 sufficient for 1080p 144fps and 4k 30fps
pelark replied to Stormerzgeek Deraj's topic in Graphics Cards
The 1080 should be enough for your needs. In terms of RAM, you're not going to notice a difference between those speeds on an 8600k. -
If it helps, the BIOS says something about the Link Status being disconnected for the adapter, not sure if that means it doesnt detect it or what?

Ey I just built a pc for a friend consisting of: MSI B250m Mortar core i5 7400 Corsair CX550m Corsair LPX ddr4 8gb MSI Gtx 960 4GB KIngston UV400 Windows 10 64bit The components were bought since he wanted intel stuff, but wasnt interested in paying the close to $200 premium we have to pay up here for Coffee lake. The problem is that I can't install the Intel l219-V driver for the LAN, since it gives me te error message "No intel adapters are present on this computer." I'm sure they're the right drivers, and I've found a lot of people who've suffered from the same problem, but none of their solutions work for me. Help?

Main difference between IPS and TN is that the IPS has more accurate colors and wider viewing angles, and is typically more expensive than the TN. The TN is usually faster and more responsive alongside being cheaper. TNs are therefore preferred among players of fast paced games like CSGO. I'd personally get an Asus MG248q if you want 1080p 144hz freesync.

AMD EPYC - Benching Suggestions
pelark replied to Falconevo's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Cinebench -
I personally use either hardwaremonitor or coretemp, either works fine but hwmonitor has more info on your general system
-
I'm not too familiar with the cablemod stuff, but I find my set from Corsair to be a bit stiff. It's some variant of paracord as far as I'm aware.

Depends on what you'll do with it, keyboard for anything other than Racing or story games, controller for those.
-
I'd personally recommend the Logitech G933. Great audio in my experience, you have a lot of control in the software, and the mic is just fine.

Are you in an older house with old cabling? Since you're using powerline, I've heard it's been bottlenecked by bad wiring.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cF9BCy Pretty much everything you asked for, HDD is easy to change so just get what you want. I went with the Define C TG because I honestly think it's the best case on the market: TG sidepanel, PSU shroud, ample cable management room, plenty of airflow, compact yet spacious interior and great storage options. This is a really capable machine, 8 core ryzen and a 1080 will get you a long way on that quality 27" 1440p Asus panel. *forgot to add the 960 evo, should still remain in your budget

That's because you kept your HDD plugged in whilst installing windows onto your SSD, windows boot manager or whatever it's called will be installed on the HDD and thus you need both for booting. Only solution I've used is reinstall windows while keeping only the SSD installed.

PUBG is the only title I know of that officially has support and optimizations for 6 core CPUs

Kraken X62 or X52, depending on whether your case fits a 240 or 280mm rad.

1600 if you're doing anything at all outside games.
-
Yup, just not necessarily worth the extra money if you're on a tight budget. Same reason the 1400 is more popular than 1500x, 1600 more so than the 1600x, and 1700 more than the 1700x or 1800x. Incremental bumps in clock speeds don't justify spending more for everyone.
-
What's your budget? I would recommend trying to stretch for a 1400, or just save a few dollars and get the 1200. 1200 and 1060 should be fine, also for VR.
-
What's your budget? I'd go Fractal Design Celsius S24 or NZXT Kraken X52/62

At that Price point you don't have much choice other than going used, I'd get a 960 or 770 if I were you.

Mi wonder what PSU you have exactly?

Do I have CPU bottleneck?
pelark replied to 23ek1jelkejd10dsslk14's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Nah you're alright. If anything you should upgrade your entire platform, but if you're only really playing CSGO you should be fine. -
Atleast for your OS drive you should do a fresh install. If you've got a larger seconday drive without any drivers or anything and just games and/or media files, you can just put those in the new system.
