  1. I can’t seem to find any information online anywhere. I am trying to install a 980 Pro into this slot. But I can’t even figure out how to get the shield off. What type of screwdriver do I need for this?? A Philips doesn’t work. thanks
  2. Thanks. I think I'm set on AMD, it just does wonders for my budget. Back when I was building my computer like 5-6 years ago AMD was pretty bad (Core FX processors) so it's surprising to see they're a good deal now. I have no issue with waiting til the new Ryzen processors come out.
  3. Hey guys. Thanks for taking your time to (possibly) help me out. I built my PC in 2015. It has a Z97 motherboard and an i7 4790k. The motherboard I have now isn't the best (it lacks features like on-board WiFi, BlueTooth, M.2, it has some bent USB pins, etc) so I'm looking to replace it. I feel like it would be a waste of money to buy a better Z97 board, and they don't really make them anymore, so what the hay, might as well buy a new CPU and get a *new* motherboard. I do gaming and personal creative work (Photoshop, light Premiere Pro, Cinema4D, Unreal Engine 4, etc). I currently have a GTX 980, and plan to upgrade that in the future, but I'm fine on that right now considering I only run 1080p at the moment.. I've already upgraded to a high capacity SSD and a SSHD. Any recommendations for a new CPU? I can't go crazy on the price, no i9s here haha. My 4790k doesn't exactly feel slow, but I feel like it could be faster? I feel like it's a little difficult for me to judge CPU speed. Does it even feel faster from say a 4790k to a 9700k for example? Completely open to AMD or Intel. P.S. Case is a NZXT H510.
  4. The headset and keyboard look absolutely beautiful. Razer deathadder, random OEM keyboard, and some headphones
  5. Every single car had fucking turbo. The weapon controls made NO SENSE.
  6. Both name and design needs work (considered Google's design language?)
  7. I was not assuming they are the same thing-I'm just wondering why it shows 8 instead of four. Is it only showing my threads, not my cores? I'm quite confused Also, logical core = thread? Right
  8. I thought it had 4 cores and 8 threads, I thought I knew this kind of stuff! Turns out I didn't, because every reporting software I have shows that I have 8 CPUs, not 4 (or 12 including threads for that matter) So why is it acting like this? Or why is it showing I have 4 cores and 4 threads, if that's even what it's doing. I'm confused! i7 4790k
  9. It's not like the 980 isn't relevant anymore.
  10. Ended up cancelling it and I'm going to round up some parts that my mother's friend is going to build... Hopefully I can get some good sales, point any out of you see them.
