  1. Type A. I live in America. I don't want to spend over $2,000. My ideal price is between $1k-$1.5k
  2. I have been looking for about a year but I am having trouble finding a laptop that really fits my needs. Needs A built in card reader. i7 or AMD equivalent At least 2 USB ports. 3 would be ideal Sometype of on-board GPU I don't want a Chrome Book or Mac book. This is only going to be for editing photos and some light video editing. Almost all the laptops I look at with a good CPU also have high end graphics to go with and are expensive. Any help is greatly appreciated!
  3. That is basically what I did. It has been a very lateral upgrade. I get slightly better performance in some games but its only a few frames. Some games I had to turn down some settings to keep the 1060 from stuttering when hitting the 3GB threshold. I added a slight overclock using MSI Afterburn and it hovered around 2.7GB of usage and ran fine. The games I play the most like Stardew Valley run great on both cards luckily enough lol.
  4. If I could find one in stock somewhere or for a somewhat reasonable price I would.
  5. Hello. I have been running an EVGA GTX 960 4GB SSC for years now. A friend of mine recently got a new card and told me I could have their old card. It is a GTX 1060 but I don't if it is the 3GB or 6GB version. Would losing that extra gig impact gaming performance at all since the 1060 is overall a better card?
  6. I live in Virginia. In my town, we have a Lowe's Hardware, Staples, Best Buy, and Wal-Mart.
  7. I have been looking at my local hardware store and online, but every time I find one I like it has really mixed reviews. This place has never let me down before with these types of things so any recommendations or suggestions would be very helpful. Thank you. I live in Virginia.
  8. I did a fresh install of windows to my 250gb Samsung SSD, but now I can't find any of the files that were present on my 1tb Western Digital HDD. Does anyone have any ideas on where they are and how to get them back?
  9. After trying to avoid it is just finally put windows 10 on it and wiped my drive with all my games on it. Bye Fallout: New Vegas save with 400+ hours. You will be missed.
  10. Already tested the ram. Both sticks work fine.
  11. Old install. I've switched the cpu and motherboard before but flashing the bios and a few tweaks usually let me boot without a fresh install.
  12. Not sure if I'm missing something really obvious or not. Upgraded my motherboard, ram, and cpu. I can go into my bios. But whenever I try to start windows it crashes.
  13. Yes, used. It's a 1TB Western Digital Black.
