  1. Do you already have your OS on an SSD? Frequently used programs would be a good idea, makes them snappier
  2. I was thinking the same, if its your dream PC your wallet doesnt matter.
  3. dual moniters? are they required? also i5 is way overkill, pentium should do just fine.
  4. I am not too sure about crossfire for solidworks, I would check first
  5. 280X is not superior in every way to 960. performance yes but 280x has over double the TDP of the 960, 280x is also 2 years older and has less frequent drivers.
  6. I paid for this game on my phone a while back and now its free I think I deserve my money back. Now I can't play all the time because of the stupid energy system so I think I deserve a full refund. Never been a fan of Gameloft and their pay2win games. Rant over.
  7. the fans use 4 pin connectors and I beleive the fan controller uses 3 pin, is there anything I can do about that?
  8. Hello LTT, I am looking to have a large upgrade to the cooling of my PC in the aims of making it significantly quieter and I want your opinions. I currently have 2 corsair af120 quiet edition and a stop corsair carbine fan and stock amd CPU cooler. I am thinking of getting 3 Noctua NF P12 fans, an NZXT Grid+ and a Hyper 212 Evo, what do you think?
  9. I would say no, anything under 750ti really is too shitty for gaming if you are aiming for 60FPS 1080p
  10. I would recommend a decent pair of headphones and like a modmic instead of headsets
  11. ahh ok, thanks. If it is 1866 Mhz I will not complain.
  12. Hello LTT, I will excuse you for my ignorance before hand. I just got speccy and my ram is running at 937.5MHz even though the memory is 1333MHz or 1600MHz cant quite remember and I thought was quite low, is it just because my PC is not under load?
  13. 218watt PSU? you need a new PSU. There are GPUs that use that much alone. Do you have anymore money for the GPU? even the 610 will not be a massive improvement, 750ti is a decent value GPU, check it out. I am sure there will also be another GPU on team red for the price.
  14. You can pick up Win81 real cheap from places like G2A or https://www.reddit.com/r/microsoftsoftwareswap/ Also consider case fans, I doubt 1 (from the case) will be enough
  15. 1 4GB. 1 harddrive cage and 1 sata slot used
  16. AMD has better performance, nvidia is much better at everything else. I got a 960 and I love it. would recommend,
  17. I am pretty sure 1000W is overkill, even for SLI. This is Intel/Nvidia we are dealing with...
  18. What res do you play at? Edit: Dont worry, just saw what you are getting. If you are not playing competitively then why are you getting 144Hz may I ask?
  19. You should be fine providing you got adequate cooling, as ZetZet said it will be outdated before it dies. just don't over clock stupidly high and you should be good! Also don't over clock with stock CPU fan. ever.
  20. I doubt it, the quality of the lenses will be better but if they are expensive it probably doesn't justify the price still. You are still really paying for the brand and style. The other alternative is the no life all summer like I usually do, going outside is for the weak.
  21. Do you need a laptop? Desktops are much cheaper
