TFW you built too many PCs Or when you like the value of ASRock boards too much The client is very happy with the rigs though so it's a nice feeling

@CUDA_Cores The rigs were as following: 9x Pentium G4620 + ASRock B250M Pro4 (strictly office rigs), 1x i5-7400 + B250M Pro4 (a rig with dual-monitors, for a programmer working there), 4x R5 1600 + AB350M Pro4 + GTX 1050Ti (photo/video editing rigs paired with nice Dell UltraSharp U2515H monitors)
Everything on the picture checks out mathematically -
@done12many2 why? We sold those PCs with 24-months of warranty and each hardware part has a longer one from our distribution channel, I really had to stretch the budget to even get this hardware as the customer is a non-profit organization
@XenosTech They're R5 1600s ^^ VERY capable little chips, extremely similar in performance to a 5820K unless you OC the 5820K above 4,5GHz -
@Morgan MLGman It was a joke. Anytime you build that many rigs, you're going to get a bunch of "why is the USB not working?" or other similar stupid calls.

@Morgan MLGman I know they're very capable. That's why I wanted either the 1600 or 1700 but atm I can't afford a platform switch as much as I would love to.

@done12many2 Oh god you have no idea how true that is... We also sold two Lenovo V310 laptops along those PCs to this customer and they requested to replace both of them for new units, we were like "WTF? two brand-new laptops broken at the same time?" turns out those people just can't use them properly, for instance one of them accidentally pressed the Lenovo "One-Key Recovery" button and then hard-powered off the laptop during Windows 10 revert and it broke the OS
It was, as I really love to call it, not a problem with hardware, but with the user of this hardware
@XenosTech is the i5-6500 that you have bottlenecking your 1070 too much?

@Morgan MLGman yup it's getting annoying at times... I had to turn down settings in bf1 last weekend because my frames were dropping into the low 40's again. I probably haven't touched a game so far for the week since that . Feels like my performance is slowly degrading.
