ImDead

used to work fine in the same hub, this started happening suddenly.

it's not showing there too.

I have a Seagate Backup Plus 1 TB external hdd. When my friend returned it to me it wasn't showing up in explorer. The hdd is recognized by device manager but not showing up in disk management. It is beeping when i plug it in. 2 beeps pause 2 beeps pause.... for a minute or so and then a single beep and beeping stops. Tried seagate tools but the repair's failed. Is there any way to recover those files? Any help would be appreciated.

I'd better wait for a 1050 then, i'm in no hurry. Also i'll change the monitor soon. Keeping my hopes up for 1050.

yes i do plan to upgrade the monitor after 6 months or so, not sure about budget or anything but current monitor wont last more than a year. Its already 6 years old with a fraction of dead pixels. I also need to keep the power supply in mind, i have vs450.

gtx 1060 mini and rx 470 almost cost same here. rx 460 is cheaper though and i might get a new monitor, not sure which. Also what will be better for future upgrade?...Next upgrade wont happen until at least 2 years as i play csgo most of the time at 70 fps in low settings which kinda works for me and i use parent's money as i'm just a student.

i dont have appropriate cooler to overclock cpu, might get a new monitor though in near future. Not looking for other major upgrades though

1360x768, also its the max resolution support by my monitor. Its really old lcd monitor(syncmaster B1930) but that resolution is fine for me.

I'm looking to upgrade from my gt 610 to a better card. I want to know if gtx 1060 will bottleneck with my specs. Current specs: CPU - fx 6300 Mobo - asus m5a78lm PSU - Corsair vs450 Ram - Corsair vengeance 4gb (will get 4 more) What will be the best gpu option with my rig considering gtx 1060 mini as max budget. It will be used for gaming and also i use softwares like PTC Creo, Ansys too.
