Wait for B series if budget is in mind.

HTTPS://aiming.pro/app/#/trainer Should have a calculator there for switching DPI in individual games - and it will tell you a sensitivity to use to have same Feel / Distance that your already used to using but with higher DPI or what ever you want.

I bought a fifine boom mic with arm and pop filter off amazon for around 100CAD Everyone says it sounds perfect much better than it needs to be for streaming and gaming anyways.

this is true , the Zen1 and even the 2xxx series were picky with memory but this was a known thing and their were plenty of Memory with AMD stamped testing on them to chose from. I put that kind of issue in the P.e.B.C.a.K

AMD GPU's for the most part the drivers aren't really a issue anymore , Nvidia often introduces new features sooner however. Most problems crop up from overclocking on both AMD AND NVIDIA atm. And for the most part tweaking/OCing in general CPU and GPU has become more problematic than it's often worth for the minimum gains and you run into plenty of stability issues now a days when doing so on both manufactures. That said cpu's and gpu's now are typically turboing (self oc'ing) quite well out of box leaving users with hardly any gains that can be made anyways. Intel CPU's are still basically similar platform as they were on skylake with some improvements. If anything id say AMD has made the most improvements on CPU's in the last few generations i haven't seen to many issues with anything we have sold in the 2xxx 3xxx or 5xxx series CPU's.

the above post has some good points. if your streaming into a pc with media capture your not tying up resources for that task. you can also be recording all your footage to a local storage and if you like a clean gaming rig perhaps you dont want a bunch of standard drives lining it . It allows also for higher grade encoding without taxing your setup.

When your trying to see enemy's who might not be easily noticeable i find most of those blur of bloom effects cause me to be basically blind while moving around. I will literally look right past enemy's when its on and seems like as soon as i disable them i start noticing everything properly.

In early 2000's Some Intel and AMD cpu's were on cards that slotted in like PCI-E slots... it didn't work that well and it was hard to put a heatsink on it. I know lots AMD's that died in the slot era from heat.

agreed at this point i wouldn't water block a 1080 unless you find one used for 50$ . its EOL and its going to be replaced in l Likely 1-2 years. spending more $ on a EOL GPU to make it 5-10% faster is not very smart.

air circulation or AC is the only real solution.

lets hope not

Take the motherboard out of the case and run everything on a box and see if it turns on. Re seat your memory - & video card . you said someone had other PSU try everything with a KNOWN WORKING PSU. Outside of case just Board + Mem + GPU (cpu obviously) and check for video and post. if fans spin up - and no post try different video card if someone will loan for testing If your components really are 2 years old most should have warranty

almost forgot about my robot vac - its not a roomba its a lesser brand , when i bought it i just thought they would all be smart . i bought a Deebot ecovacs one and it is the worst . sometimes and i mean not often it makes it back to the charging station. It doesn't know where the station is however so what it does is .. when bat gets low it stops vacuum and then drives around until its IR sensor finds the charge station and then that's how it lines up. However most or many times it doesn't find it so it just runs out of battery power somewhere like a hall or bathroom. That's if it didn't get stuck on something in some almost impossible way or close a bathroom door on itself somehow. I regret not getting a better one that maps the rooms etc.

Celeron 667 - I bought it to overclock but never did really get it working correctly before replacing it. OCZ DDR1 kit - waste of $ OCZ 2000mhz "SLI" 4gb mem kit which was made for a 790I chipset but the 790I chipset/FSB couldn't run memory speeds that high without crashing. ADATA -Msata Drives at work we had basically 100% fail rates even the RMA's failed within a year on all builds. ADATA SATA Drives in my own use - 3 dead - 1 RMA that sometimes required a reboot to recognize again after falling over. (never buying adata again no matter what anyone tells me or what improvements they make". Lots of Razer stuff they just break sometimes non moving parts such as sensors or the switches just failed. had a Black Widow ultimate that just started not working or holding keys down that i didn't even press. probably lots of other things i've forgotten ive purchased many 1st type products over the years lol.
