  1. Thats the one, tbh just use 3dmark, but here's a warning, when the over clock is too much you will start to see screen flicker and pink lines, when this happens stop the programme and lower your clock speed, because if you don't your gpu driver will crash and you will have to restart your pc otherwise 3D mark says all your OCs are bad.
  2. Furmark or even 3dmark, 3D mark always artifacts if the overclock is too much.
  3. I didn't need to add any extra voltage to mine I don't believe, but it wouldn't go any higher than 2050 even with more voltage.
  4. I have a zotac amp and can get around 2050mhz out of it, in afterburner that's around a +130 core boost, I personally like to do a big jump and work back from it, maybe start off at +150 and go back in 20s,
  5. I rather like corsairs crystal series cases, they're very nice.
  6. If you could afford them I'd say the sennheiser g4me one, best headset out their period, but my second choice would be the hyperx cloud.
  7. Audio technica ad700x, amazing sound and won't break the bank.
  8. I use msi afterburner to see my temps mate, I keep it up while In game to see fps, cpu temps, cpu usage etc. to me the liquid temp sounds fine, my 4790k usually hits between 38-42c under gaming.
  9. im not being a dick but please learn about psus, just because theyre both bronze means nothing, quality control is a big part of which psus are good and which arent, capacitors etc play a big roll.
  10. if youre spending so much on a build, i wouldnt skimp out on the psu, try get a semi modular gold if you can, or save up a little and get a fully modular, higher end corsair psus are good but the bronze ones suck.
  11. i really wouldnt get a refurbbed psu.
  12. thats at 11% load, i just read your post again, your liquid temp at gaming is 41c?

  14. it says my liquid temp is 32c when my actual temps are in the mid 20s, take it with a pinch of salt, use something like realtemp to see your actual temps.
  15. i dno how much the audio technica ad700x is in the us but damn son, theyre amazing.
  16. ive heard many things about the clouds, my friend used to use some cheap soundblaster headset and when he got the clouds i thought it was someone else the mic is that good.
  17. i just prefer evga. its like corsair coolers, two friends have had to replace their h100i because doa, so i refuse to buy their coolers, everyone said the evga g1 was a bad psu, ive had mine for more than a year without any issues.
  18. ive not played gta since, im thinking of getting gta iv and playing through that

    Hey there, I also need some help with choosing…

    welcome mate.
  20. i updated gta v the other week after months of not playing and it seems like an update theyve done has messed the game up, i have a gtx 1080 and ive noticed a big drop in fps.

    if you can squeeze a bit more than £80, go for this motherboard mate https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/r3yxFT/msi-motherboard-z170asli
  22. deffo mate, id go with evga over corsair any day of the week.

    it wouldnt benefit you to get a motherboard with 2x 16 lanes because no 6th gen z170 cpu has more than 16 lanes mate, the 6700k only supports up to 16 lanes, so it doesnt matter if it has 1x16 and 1x8, the difference is minimal anyway.

    for that price mate, no, motherboards these days arent cheap especially not for the z170 motherboards and upwards.
