    R3ep3r got a reaction from IAmAndre in How big of an issue is 30fps gaming?   
    If you are ONLY used to 60+ then yes, it is a 'not that good' experience BUT keep in mind that a decent framerate which makes the game playable is 30fps. Lower than that is disgusting and which is over 30 is awesome.

    R3ep3r got a reaction from Beerzerker in My GPU stopped working, can it be fixed?   
    Might not be such a great idea but I would disassembly the GPU and would check the soldering for each pin of the connector. Maybe you have a cold soldering spot.

    Buddy, your CPU is the source of the problem. The GPU is bottlenecked by the CPU itself. An upgrade to a newer platform such as Ryzen first or second gen or Intel 8th/9th gen. Also for that you'll need DDR4 ram.

    Due to the fact that you already have a constantly running PC and you do not have any problems with that one(excepting the FPS thing) you can upgrade to a newer PC step by step. If you can afford you can simply go get a better GPU(as you said the 1080 or 1080ti) and use it with your actual PC since that CPU can still hold up pretty good with the games nowadays. Same thing as I did. First I bought a GPU then the PSU because I needed extra power for the one that I actually have, then bought the CPU/MOBO etc. In like 4-5 months I had a new PC with all those components I needed in the first place.

    R3ep3r got a reaction from skillz22 in Which system should I go for?   
    Clearly that E5-2650 v2 will be better due to the fact that it has 8 cores/16 threads and 20mb cache instead of 4 cores/8threads and only 10mb cache. In my opinion S1 is better than the S2 and it's worth the extra money not only for the CPU but also for the SSD that comes with the system and the 32gigs of DDR3 memory.

    Noctua's been using this scheme of colours for many years. Who TF are you to ask them to change the colour scheme and also mention that Beige is the color of your grandma's car?
    If YOU don't like this then do not buy from them. GO ahead and use any other manufacturers that meet your desires.

    R3ep3r got a reaction from LukeSavenije in buying another ram stick   
    A few days before I was doing the same research as you are doing right now. I'm using 8gigs and as far as I can see, I NEED MORE! 
    At this very moment I'm using Crucial CL15 8gb DDR4 rated at 2133mhz and in my country this ram stick seems to be gone. The best answer I've seen so far was similar to this:
    You might get any type of ram you'd like but ! (there's always a BUT) you might/might not encounter problems with the sticks while paired. There are people saying that they've had problems with their sticks and people saying that with the same sticks didn't get into trouble with that mixture. So.. if you can wait up till Black Friday reaches your country and see if you can afford a 16gigs kit. If yes then buy it and after all sell your other 8gig stick.

    R3ep3r got a reaction from Abzilla in Is this pc good?   
    I'd rather get a 1060 6gigs instead of the 3 gigs version because most games use over 3gigs of ram nowadays. Also a m.2 ssd instead of that sata 3 would totally be better for your setup.

    If you're going to get a 1070 or even a 1080 then your PC will suffer from bottleneck caused by the CPU. Instead of selling it, you could go with a newer Ryzen (1500-1600 or even 1700/1800) and then it'll work better with the GPU. Also you'll need a better PSU for that GPU/CPU. Additional ram you'll need for FH3/4 since both are using over 10gigs when on medium/high(PS: FH4 is better optimized than FH3)

    I know it might be over your budget but I could recommend you G502 from logitech. In PUBG it works pretty well without any issues at all.

    R3ep3r reacted to Spotty in Seagate Ironwolfs making noise   
    I've found the problem!

    The issue is caused by AIDA64 running in the background and when it attempts to retrieve sensor information from the hard drive in order to report it.
    My guess is the drives are in a lower power state but AIDA64 is trying to wake the drive every 20 seconds when it attempts to gather the sensor information for the temperature readings.



    This is definitely the cause of the issue,as when I closed AIDA64 the noise stopped, and when I changed the value from 20 to 10 seconds, the noise occurred every 10 seconds.

    To change or disable this feature in AIDA64, select File > Preferences > "Hardware Monitoring" and either uncheck the disk temperature box or change the value of the update frequency.

    Thanks to those who helped and provided suggestions for things to test.

    If they do not offer support for this you could simply go to your local construction shop and ask if they sell tempered glass and also if they can cut it to the dimensions needed by you.

    1060s are still highly priced. More likely I'd go with a 970/980 even 980ti which is half the price of an actual 1070 and almost equal to one when it comes to performance. Also another 8 gigs of ram and a SSD would do the trick in your situation.

    Assuming that you already have the peripherals and the monitor this is my suggestion for you.
    https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jnkPnH  -> 613$ including the GPU and the PC case.
