  1. I am having the same issue and have been unable to find any help on how to fix this yet.
  2. The i5 bottle necking video is interesting but I feel it only shows one or two instances of it from one person. I would like to see data points from more sources before I would have it as a major deciding factor.
  3. 1. Budget & Location £1300 UK 2. Aim Gaming new AAA titles at high to max settings, web browsing, movies. No content creation 3. Monitors 1 4. Peripherals Monitor 5. Why are you upgrading? Old PC is having a hard time with new games even at the lowest settings 5ish years old gtx650 i3 I have quite a few parts already: MSI z170a MOBO MSI GTX 1070 Vengence 16gb DDR4 2666 Ram NZXT s340 case Samsung Evo 750 250gb SSD WD Blue 3TB HDD be Quiet Pure rock cpu cooler Parts I need to order i5 6600k CPU Corsair RMx 650w PSU and a new monitor at the moment im thinking of the Acer GN246HL 144hz but i would really like 1440p at 144hz but it seems so expensive. Will i be limiting my system alot by only going with a 60hz 1440p or 144hz 1080p monitor? I never play fast twitch games like CSGo or Overwatch but i have seen quite a few people say that 144hz is good for all applications and "I will NEVER go back to 60hz after getting 144hz". Is that an exaggeration or will it really make a difference?
