  1. That is a retarded setup.
  2. That's what I'm asking there bruh.
  3. I've always struggled with something on pcpartpicker. When you pick out your components, they are not always from the same vendor. So if you order one part of vendor A, another part from Vendor B, etc....how can you save when you are paying shipping to all these vendors? Wouldn't it make sense to order all parts from the same vendor? Can someone please explain to me how you go about this?
  4. I do the same thing with memory express, but they don't always have the same stock as the others.

  6. Thank you very much for your input. I will look into this as your PC Partpicker is the USA version and mine is the Canadian version (ca.pcpartpicker.com). KL
  7. 970 hands down if you got the cash.
  8. About twice a year I build a PC out of my own money and donate it to a family in need in my community. Last year my first PC went to a family where the father was laid off from work and went back to school to study business and economics. His wife worked part time and they had a 2 year old boy. They were struggling to make ends meet and needed a PC badly as all they had was a gen1 iPad. At the time I had an extra ASUS GTX 750Ti that I put in it. The second PC went to a family of 5. Husband, wife, 3 kids. Husband too had lost his job and wife was working at a hair salon struggling to make ends meet. One of their kids had a learning disability and required special support and learning help that was offered online. At the time the child was winging it using an iPad mini for her extra studies. Furthermore, the dad needed a computer for job searching, resumes, applying online, etc. This PC I did not put a GPU in and just went with the onboard graphics which was sufficient for what they are doing. My first donor computer for 2016, I would like to put a gpu in it again. I'm willing to do either AMD or nvidia. But, I would like to keep the price around the $100 mark. At this price point I am wondering if the onboard graphics are just as good or better? Comments? My donor PC parts are usually Corsair 200r case, 500W evga or corsair psu, Intel core i3-4170 CPU, ASUS H-97 Plus atx motherboard, 2x4 GB DDR3 gskill ram, 120 gb Sandisk SSD, 1 TB Seagate HDD, ASUS cd/dvd r/w drive, Logitech mouse & keyboard, Logitech speakers, ASUS wifi card and a 22 inch LG monitor. I also install on the SSD a legit copy of windows 8.1 on each and upgrade it to win 10.
