  1. Don't know what it would be, my first guess would be the wire or bad contact in the port, but honestly I have no idea.
  2. Benq would be a good choice but the LG 29UM58 is also a very good monitor for the price. http://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-29UM58-P-ultrawide-monitor
  3. Get the 1440p 144Hz IPS monitor, but it depends on size of the moitor and the second resolution
  4. The Sony MDR-XB650BT, I have them myself and they are very good.
  5. Go with an MSI pro-vd board Or some H110M motherboard (like from gigabyte)
  6. Sometimes it's good, but I recommend you use Fraps for a benchmark and go from there
  7. I own a cooler master psu that came from 2010 and it still works perfectly so yes, cooler master is a very good brand for PSU's
  8. https://www.amazon.de/Corsair-CP-9020077-EU-Modular-650Watt-Netzteil/dp/B00GJRH236/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1508677316&sr=1-1&keywords=700watt%2Bmodular%2Bpsu%2B80&refinements=p_36%3A-8000&th=1 This is an 80+ gold but is not fully modular, but I live in Holland and everything is way overpriced an availability is very bad so I can't really get you the best option here. EDIT: Here's a better option https://www.amazon.de/THERMALTAKE-Toughpower-Standard-zertifiziert-Kabelmanagement/dp/B00IKJD3YS/ref=sr_1_22?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1508677568&sr=1-22&keywords=750+watt+psu+modular
  9. I've calculated and it should be enough, but I don't know your PC's exact specs. The reason I said: "just to be safe" is because you can't have your PSU running on 100% load all the time because then it will die very fast.
  10. I think that would be OK, but just to be safe I'd get an 700 or 750 watt.
  11. Yes the I7 7700K does heat up a lot when overclocking. You should really also take an SSD, at this price point it's a must for a boot drive for windows 10 which runs very slow on mechanical drives (in comparison to SSD's). The PSU is kinda overkill, You'd get away with an 650 watt 80 plus bronze.and I suggets you get a better GPU because that 1070 would be a bottleneck for the i7 7700K overclocked.
  12. I'd say you get the i3 7100, but the i5 7400 for only a little 30 bux is the better deal, btw if you haven't updated your H110M bios you'll get problems with putting 7th gen in there so in that case I'd recommend a i3 6100 or i5 6500.
  13. I'd say you get the i7 8400, you can always upgrade the gpu and yes it woud be smarter to wait for cheaper intel mobo's, but the obvious choice in price to performance would be the i7 package (in comparison to the ryzen 5 1600x package).
  14. I'd say you use the 250 gb, because you already have a boot drive and speed probably won't matter to much because you'll probably only use it for long term or game storage. Btw the difference in speed won't be that noticable. Another option would be that you sell the hardrives and buy one 1TB or 500gb harddrive.
  15. 200 euro PC build I'm going to try and built a very price to performance ratio pc, now here's what I'm planning on doing and please leave your thoughts in your reply! For the CPU I'm thinking about going for an i3 6100 because in Holland you can get it for only 40 to 50 euros (the new price is about 110 euros) For a motherboard I'm getting an Msi Pro vd secondhand or a gigabyte H110M on amazon they are both about 40 euros and I'm personnaly leaning towards the gigabyte motherboard because that one is new and with motherboards I'm not so secure with secondhand options. As for ram I could get 4 GB ddr 4 from crucial for 30 to 35 euros and 8 gigabytes for 60 euros. I already have a case that I could use and also a power supply, but the psu is a bit sketchy and the case is really ugly so on amazon I'm just gonna buy some cheap case for like 17 euros orso. I'm going to upgrade the psu to like a corsair vs 450 or something similair (or cheaper), this build isn't going to consume that much power. I can get a 500 gb harddrive for free and I'll just use unactivated windows 10. The GPU I'm still not sure about but my first thoughts were to go and look for a secondhand 1050, but those are still pretty expensive, my second thoughts were to buy a secondhand gtx 950 or 960 (2gb), thos are also still way to expensive in holland. Now my budget left over for the gpu would be about 75 euros, so does anyone have an idea, please reply. Thanks for reading! Ps: the main site in Holland for secondhand parts is Marktplaats.nl
