  1. Ill definitely give that a try when i have time tomorrow. Thanks for taking a look, was left beyond frustrated after all else had went so smooth lol
  2. Hey all, just upgraded my cpu and motherboard (i7 12700k + tuf gaming z690-plus wifi d4) and everything works except internet? Everything else in my house can connect to the internet but the pc. I have tried ethernet and wireless but nothing pops up at all. I try to troubleshoot but it says "windows could not find a driver for your network adapter" but it gives me no solution. Just that alert. Ive tried all sorts of youtube videos and articles but i simply cant get a network to show up. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks a ton for reading. Look forward to hearing your input!
  3. I was planning on getting an i5 12600k or an i7 12700k but was wondering if i could keep my current cooler im using on my i7 7700k. Im using the noctua nh-d15 and saw they had a mounting bracket to bring compatibility to the alder lake cpu. Will this suffice or is the shape of the new processor altered enough to where i wont get proper cooling? Thanks a lot for taking the time!
  4. I game at 1440p on ultra typically. Have a 144hz monitor and looking to take full advantage of it. The 7700k is still fine but its a bit dated at this point so i wanted something newer to compliment the new card. Looking to play any triple a game at the previously stated resolution and fps
  5. Hey guys, was looking to upgrade from my 7700k here in the near future and was wondering what you all think would be the best option. Im using this pc for almost exclusively gaming btw. Im using a 3080ti if that influences your opinion to one cpu ovet another. I can do the i5-12600k or i7-12700k. I feel like the i9 would be unnecessary but if its that much better for gaming purposes i could still go for that i suppose. Was going to try to avoid i9 to help pay for the new motherboard ill need (ill def take recommendations for a mobo to).Was also planning on keeping my ddr4 until ddr5 is more widely available and a little cheaper as well. Looking forward to hearing your input! Thanks!
  6. Hey all, was wondering why my fps is dropping so heavily on forza horizon 5? I have settings on ultra with no ray tracing at 1440p. I was using the nvidia performance overlay and saw i had my fps 100+ while my 99% would dip to single digits at times. I dont have this issue on other games like vanguard where it runs butter smooth without dlss help or anything (id sure as hell hope for what i paid lol) was wondering if anyone has an idea as to whats up? My rig: I7-7700k 16 GB ddr4 3080ti 1 TB ssd Z270-A mobo 850w 80+ gold psu
  7. Appreciate u lookin into that, thanks!
  8. I have a fully modular power supply but am replacing it soon with a higher wattage one in the coming days. Would i be able to keep all of my components plugged in and simply plug them into the new power supply? Im staying with the same brand (evga) with cables and psu. Reason i ask is because a friend somehow screwed his hard drive after doing the same thing im about to do. Im guessing its unrelated but not totally sure
  9. Thanks for the input, really appreciate it!
  10. Hadnt even thought of that, good point. Think it can work for another year or so, or is this a more significant need than im making it out to be right now?
  11. Yea thats certainly the ideal situation, just wasnt sure if i could get away with a simple gpu swap. If im hindering the gpu significantly ill just wait on buying a 3080. I just wasnt totally sure if i was taking away 5%, 10%, 20%, etc. of the cards capabilities. Im using a 2080 super right now thats been fantastic but i have a friend that could use a card. Was planning on getting the 3080 and selling my current card at a reasonable price to help pay for it
  12. I game on a 1440p 144hz monitor, i know ill get a big jump in fps but just wasnt sure how effective this cpu is in comparison to the new gens. Didnt want to leave a large portion of performance on the table ya know
  13. Sup guys. Was wondering if the 7700k was good enough to pair with a 3080 or 3080ti, i know its a good cpu but its getting a bit dated. This cpu has treated me great over the years but just wasnt sure if it will be holding me back in any way performance-wise. Thanks!
  14. Yea especially with having the Super edition the 3070 wouldn't be worth it at all at the current price. Thats why i was looking at 3080 and 3080ti but its so hard to find good deals on those as well. Likely just waiting it out
  15. Thanks for the reply my guy. I think im getting more and more convinced that its just better to just wait for 40 series. Unless prices somehow fall to original msrp but i really doubt that happens before the new cards drop. I hope the shortage is solved by then
