With the first two games, I think you had Vsync on, idk about Minecraft doe

I would say wait, Im thinking just like tbh and I feel it is a reasonable thing to consider.

I think you have forgotten to mention your budget...you also did not mention your power supply so I would I assume you want a new one, also if you not considering overclocking you would not need a really expensive CPU-cooler or even a really high-tier motherboard...anyway all what I'm saying that we want you to be more specific to what you want to do? sure you want to play high-demanding games but some ppl doesn't consider overclocking the CPU an option so theres no point of getting the expensive motherboard or even aftermarket cooler...

I don't think so, I was going to get 1600x but I heard it did not have a stockcooler then went for the normal ryzen 5 1600 non-x instead.

I would think it is, I think it pretty similar to when you open Task manager CPU usage goes from 0 to 12 or something then goes back to normal after 1-3sec

well, that's weird... what game is it? and whats your OS?

I mean, I could pretty easily get a really decent gaming experince on R5 1600 overclocked paired with 1080ti and there would be no bottle-necking whatsoever, not to mention with really kewl performance that is on par with I7 7700k, well in some games that is, but still R5 1600 is good enough for 4k for sure. btw FormFactor is pretty limiting and it would be interesting to hear your reasoning for it, I mean ITX for 1080gtx, 16gb of ram and anyway R5 works perfectly with no problem...idk having a small FormFactor never been a popular option for many, and I think it will never be...for its lacks of features Edit: ops sorry it seems that I kinda misinterpreted your post, sorry for dat.

I mean, you can't go wrong with any GTX Nivida is offering, so it comes down to what you trying to play with it and in what settings and resolution etc etc... it is common sense to pay more (as long it is under its rightous MSRP) to have a something last more (more-future-proof) if that what u looking for, get 1070 cuz as far as I know it can run everything(as far as I know) in 1080p at ultra with reasonable fps (60fps and beyond)

Well, that's weird, can you take a picture of your pc?

Could you plz elaborate a lil more, what's your MB and are you overclocking? are you using the default BIOS settings?

I think going for 1060 totally worth it, for its price and performance difference, btw AMDs' GPUs are a BIG-NO, esp with their insane prices right now, so get anything Nivida rn and that most likely gonna give u kewl performance for the buck you pay

Good luck, but I wanted to tell remind you that PUBG is not well-optimized you barely able to play it with mid-endish cards on high, I don't know if that means anything to you but good luck

Look, I don't wanna be that guy but recently I bought a used asus 1060 dual 6gb and it was f*cked and completely dead...so take it as an advice from me for the future, unless you know the guy who gonna sell the GPU to you, buy a new one not a used one

You might have a dead PCI-E or a dead GPU even, so if you can run the old card we could scratch over the possibility of being the PCI-E dead but I'm really more concern about the PSU cuz I've never heard of it

Are you sure that it has nothing to do with the power supply? can you post a picture of your motherboard with everything connected?
