  1. Yeah threw many a year buying hardware experience taught me one thing never buy the absolute best buy the second best.
  2. hmm.. I agree the titan to me is just for silly people oh sorry enthusiasts :-)
  3. Yeah in my monies a 1050 is like 3k and a 1050ti is 3-4K. It just seems to overlap a bit.
  4. I have a very easy question who is the 1050Ti for. If you on a budget you get 1050 and if you have a little bit more you get 1060 and if you have a little more you get 1070 /1080 and if you silly you get Titan.
  5. yeah leaning towards that. Just one thin i am not a basic user i am a programmer and my laptop will be used to program on.
  6. Yeah that more than enough. A few changes later cpu gen, nvme instead of ssd for boot and then a 1080 maybe a bit more memory my ide's takes allot of memory.
  7. The core will be about 10% performance decrease. I wonder how much increase if any the 7 gen cpu give me over 4th. Also forgot to say budget about 5k ish.
  8. Yeah that was another option the only problem is the laptop. If I travel and have to use it for a while its very painful.
  9. Hi So it's that time again upgrade time so I have a few questions. My current setup looks like this Desktop i7 4770k 16gb memory 256gb ssd 3tb hdd Asus 770gtx Laptop (Lenovo IdeaPad Y550p) i7 16gb 256 ssd The problem I have with my current setup is graphics card, ssd to small and laptop to big and slow. The question is should I go with mid range laptop and a new beast of desktop or should I go with say something like razer blade with a core. If I look at price the first option will be about 1k ish more In general I can obviously go money shit and spend 5k on a desktop. I use my desktop for gaming and the occasional movie and for development because laptop is very very fast and then I use my laptop when I am travelling. I had a look at a few reviews on the razer core including Linus videos and it seems that most people say it might not yet fully ready to move over. Opinions?
  10.
