    I'd say between the two, go with Logitech. Mostly because the Logitech option is full 7.1 surround sound, vs the Blaster X option being only a sound bar. However,  if you're in a smaller space, or you're going more for aesthetics, the Blaster X option doesn't look too bad.

    You can pack the internals for support using hard foam packing material, not a kind that will shard or turn to powder though. That hard foam stuff that looks like its wrapped in a plastic bag stuff. mold it inside the case to support your GPU and cooler or anything else hanging down and you should be in good shape.

    put some foam in the case to support the GPU and cpu cooler (if its a big heatsink) and but the whole build in the box of the case (with the included foam) that should keep it safe

    Yeah, if i did build 2, I was definitely gonna upgrade to a ryzen system later. Now way I'm gonna keep a 7 year old CPU in a gaming system longer than I need to.

    Ok, a few things.
     
    1.Please link a pcpartpicker.com list if you have one.
    2.A sound card is not really necessary. Either put that money into a better CPU or GPU, or  buy an external DAC if you really want high quality audio.
    3. Ryzen really benefits from higher clocked RAM. try for something running 3000MHz or higher.

    I would really recommend against buying used parts still.

    If you're buying used, the 750 ti will most likely be cheaper. Just remember, it will not preform as well, and it does nopt come with any warranty, in case something goes wrong with the card. When buying new, the 1050 is cheaper.

    Just check both prices online. The 1050 is cheaper

    The GTX 1050 will out-preform the GTX 750 ti, and cost less.

    Ok, here's a few suggestions.
     
    1. The GT 1030 is pretty aweful. try upgrading it to a GTX 1050.
    2. Going with a Ryzen CPU will give you similar preformance, for much less.
     
    If you take these tips, here's what it looks like.

    I don't really thing his use case will benefit from the hyper threading that Ryzen 5 provides.

    Attona got a reaction from glenalz81 in 1050ti Outperforms 1060?   
    If you run games at 1080p, the 1060 3gb will definitely run faster 99% of the time
  14. Informative
    Attona reacted to bakidota in Is this PC good enough to play at 1080p 144hz at high or medium settings?   
    Even if you buy 1080ti you won't be able to run triple A games like ghost recon and witcher 3 at 144frames
  15. Agree
    Attona got a reaction from PerfectPlasma in Is this PC good enough to play at 1080p 144hz at high or medium settings?   
    This PC should get some pretty decent frame rates at 1440p with medium settings in most games. However, I do have some questions/suggestions about this build.
     
    1. Why are you using a Z370 Mobo with a locked chip? Unless you're doing SLI, it's not really worth the price.
    2. You've probably heard this already, but this build would honestly be cheaper, with about the same performance if you went with a Ryzen chip. If you live somewhere near a micro center, you can pick up an 8 core Ryzen 7 1700x for $239.99, giving you 2 extra cores, for a lower price.

    Attona got a reaction from Damascus in Does my build suck?   
    So, right now i have an awful laptop from 2007 for gaming, and I'm working on building myself a fairly budget PC for gaming, and maybe a little streaming. I've never built a pc before, so I'd love to hear some feedback on this build, and figure out some changes to make the system better.
     
     
    CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHz 6-Core Processor  ($189.99 @ Amazon) - This cpu needs no introduction.
    Motherboard: Asus - PRIME B350-PLUS ATX AM4 Motherboard  ($59.99 @ Newegg) - one of the cheapest motherboards at the time that was full ATX.
    Memory: G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2133 Memory  ($74.99 @ Newegg) - Cheap.
    Storage: SanDisk - SSD PLUS 480GB 2.5" Solid State Drive  ($137.99 @ Amazon) - Boot SSD, and maybe for storing some games that i play frequently.
    Storage: Western Digital - Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive  ($41.77 @ OutletPC) - Mass storage.
    Video Card: Asus - GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6GB Dual Video Card  ($279.99 @ SuperBiiz) - Yes, i chose this one, because I'm going for a white build.
    Case: NZXT - S340 (White) ATX Mid Tower Case  ($64.99 @ SuperBiiz) - Aesthetics.
    Power Supply: Corsair - Builder 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply  ($49.99 @ Amazon) - Fairly cheep, and allows for upgrades in the future.
    Monitor: Asus - VS228T-P 21.5" 1920x1080 60Hz Monitor  ($99.00 @ Amazon) - I don't need anything higher quality than this for now.
    Keyboard: G.Skill - Ripjaws KM570 RGB Wired Gaming Keyboard  ($99.99 @ Newegg) - I wanted a keyboard with Cherry MX Brown switches.
    Mouse: Corsair - M65 PRO RGB FPS Wired Optical Mouse  ($49.96 @ Amazon) - RGB.
    Other: Cloud9 Chair Maxnomic ($399.00) - I just want this. There's no good justification for it.
    Total: $1547.65
     
    Thank you.
