  1. If your planing to spend 4 to 5 years with it then I would invest now. The high specs you get now will equate to more life span out of the hard ware in it. 3d rendering would also require both a good cpu and gpu so I would recommend you spend the extra on the i7 with 1060.
  2. Well if your looking for NVME then the only thing from newegg that is cheaper is a Plextor drive I'll link but its only 30$ cheaper and it only has half of the storage. So I'd say for an NVME drive the 960 pro is actually a good value. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820249084&ignorebbr=1&cm_re=nvme-_-20-249-084-_-Product
  3. I would recommend the 960 pro at 250gb. I don't know if its compatible with Z97 so if u find its incompatible I would recommend a 950 pro at a similar capacity.
  4. Well if they appeared right after the driver updated then it's definetly not a hardware thing its defiently a driver problem.
  5. The zotac one will have better temps but if your only worried about it lasting, it really doesn't matter. GPU's don't have a finite life and as long as you don't bitcoin mine with it 24/7. it will become obslete before it dies.
  6. The first part, that being the horizontal lines, sounds more like a GPU driver or even hardware problem and less like a problem with windows. The part about windows being only a cursor is a very frequent problem to some people but also can be caused by a variety of other problems. I would recommend completely turning off the computer and then unplugging the computer and letting it sit for a few minutes. Try turning the computer on after that and it should go directly to windows. I would also recommend leaving it to sit fora few minutes. Sometimes its just caused by a problem with windows booting.
  7. 1 thing first, its not the cooling that's the problem. Secondly if you really want to stream in 1080p you should probably run ethernet to your pc because no matter how good the card is it wont make up for the lowered speeds and high ping of wireless. So I would recommend you spend 20$ on like 40 feet of cable.
  8. I recently got a new laptop and it has a really short cable. I checked the 2 cables (I don't really know why I just did) and they had different voltages on them. I'm wondering if its okay to use the longer part of the cable to plug it in. I'm talking about the part that plugs into the wall, not the part with the brick that plugs into the laptop.
  9. I would only get a motherboard with built in wifi if I knew that I couldn't run ethernet or I was planning on taking it places. So if you intend to you should get that motherboard.
  10. Then you can just get the 7600k cause u wont benefit from the extra cores so it's money down the drain.
  11. It's most likely background stuff that windows or programs you installed are doing. You can solve this by going into the task manager and ending all of the task that you don't need running.
  12. Are you going to be only gaming or do you plan to do some content creation like photo editing or video editing?
  13. Just go to nvidia's website and download the driver that came before the newest one. Nvidia's Driver website: http://www.geforce.com/drivers/beta-legacy (be sure not to download a beta one, get an older one.)
  14. Isn't the cable's fault. As long as its not VGA then it would either always work or never work if its HDMI or DisplayPort.
  15. Almost nothing has changed as far as I can tell. Linus's way was definitely the best way but you would only save like 200-300$ by streaming to a thin client.
