  1. It's point to a bad chip or the fact that you're motherboard has low grade power delivery and isn't used for overclocking
  2. Would an i3 be good enough for smoothly recording console gameplay through an Elgato or PVR which both have dedicated hardware encoding at 720p g0fps? Also would it possibly be able to handle 1080p 60fps recording since I deciding whether there's any point in getting a HD60 if my i3 can't handle it.
  3. No just no it shouldn't be on those kind of motherboards and honestly shouldn't be in any build. But why are you trying to overclock it's pointless for that chip.
  4. Check if fans are working? Reapply Thermal Paste? Check if other programs show the same temps? Over than that I wouldn't know what the problem is but you don't exactly have a card with good cooling either but it shouldn't be that high of temps
  5. Abit more expensive but it's worth it. It's best to do research because there's a lot more to it than just efficiency certification and modularity
  6. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor ($172.89 @ OutletPC) Motherboard: ASRock H97 Anniversary ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($71.89 @ OutletPC) Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R9 390 8GB Nitro Video Card ($304.99 @ Newegg) Total: $549.77 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2015-11-15 17:27 EST-0500 A bit over budget but it's worth it but push come to shove and you can't afford, you could probably get away with a FX for 1440p
  7. Probably would be a minor bottleneck but I really wouldn't do SLI 960s it's a waste of money
  8. SLI requires two PCIe x16 that can at identical x8 speeds but Crossfire only need one lane at x8 and the other at x4
  9. That;s still losing performance though, the point was to make it cheaper with no expense of performance which an i3 would do so
  10. It's a pretty bad PSU worse than CX level and should never be bought
  11. AMD is good for GPUs but definitely not CPUs it's 3 years old so what can you expect, just upgrade to Intel
  12. http://www.scan.co.uk/products/28-acer-b286hk-4k-pro-monitor-led-3840x2160-1ms-300cd-m-100m1-speakers-dp-hdmi(mhl)-dvi
  13. Spend more money on CPU than GPU and this is the result That's a really bad GPU btw, a stronger GPU should always be priority in a gaming build
  14. Depends whether he'll overclock and likes other Z170 fancy features otherwise there's not much point
  15. Coil Whine is a iffy topic, there really isn't an actual cure for it, sometimes certain PSU/GPU cause more coil whine than others and sometimes people cure coil whine by certain methods but there is no clear cut way to stop coil whine.
  16. 370 was kinda opposed to 750Ti before the 950 came out and the 380 is competing against the 960
  17. That's fine you can get away with stock cooling since the Pentium is a low TDP chip
  18. It's called beta drivers for a reason stop complaining they're not exactly meant to be stable yet
  19. Any GPU should fit any mobo it's whether it's compatible with case and whether it's impeding any HDD/SDD cages
  20. Just a tip you might wanna flip the PSU otherwise it's gonna fight for air with the bottom GPU
  21. Like we all said that a PSU can't bottleneck fps because if you overload it, if it's decent the PC will just shut down due to safety measure put in place or it could just burn or fry itself. Either way the GPU is the clear problem and BO3 PC is a glitchy game anyways so I way try a different stable game to determine performance
  22. They really aren't cards to compare and whether you need a 980Ti depends on games, resolution and targeted settings
