So my friend just finished building his pc,but it wasnt posting,he later realised that he didnt connect the gpu with the monitor(genius)but also,that the gtx 1050 doesnt have a vga input. His monitor has a VGA and DVI input. So he decided to buy an HDMI Input to DVI Output Adapter,but I heard that there might be some compatabilty issues,will it work ?

Thank you for putting this together he only wanted a cpu though at around 80 cdn so it could fit the budget,however i dont think he would plan on revamping the build now. oh and dont worry about performance,he will mostly play fortnite on it( I disagree aswell but what can I do) I might,however consider this for my own build,never tried any amd product. maybe its time to try somehting new

Yeah Actually I was just about to say the g4600 costs too much in cdn this squeezes in right through the budget tho,Il have to cancel out the keyboard and mouse but I think I should get the hardware done first then think about the accessories again,Thank you so much you are of immeasurable help

Thanks for taking the time to make the list Really appreciate it yeah the canadian dollar kinda sucks Ill try to figure something out

The problem is He has a budget of 500 CANADIAN dollars. this build goes over 600 canadian dollars.

ok thanks for letting me know. Ill be sure to tell him about cpu,he was just about to push the button on the purchase..oh well Thanks

its an E5300 are there different cpu sizes ? I thought it was the same for all cpus

Yup,it was a prebuilt pc that came with pentium he has like 30 cds leftover,worst case scenarion he'll buy a new case

yeah a cpu is probably the next step

its a pentium which is probably the exact opposite,way too weak

So one of my friends just got into building a pc,and hes planning to upgrade his. so heres what hes thinking of Motherboard:MSI Pro Series Intel B250 LGA 1151 DDR4 USB 3.1 micro-ATX Motherboard Ram:Kingston Technology HyperX FURY Black 8 GB CL15 DIMM DDR4 2400 MT/s Internal Memory Power Supply:EVGA 100-W1-0500-KR 500 W1, 80+ WHITE 500W GPU:EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 GAMING, 2GB GDDR5, DX12 OSD Support Graphic Card Mouse and Keyboard:Redragon K552-BA Gaming Mechanical Keyboard, M601 Gaming Mouse, P001 Gaming Mouse Pad Combo so a few questions: 1:this is his first time opening up a pc,and im not exactly a genius to help him out,so does he need to buy any extra ports ? 2:are these stuff compatible with each other ? or does the power supply or any component for that matter need a different port io ? 3:this is the case he has,is it gonna do the job ? I know,To some these questions might look stupid but We are both noobs at this Thanks for the help

Ok,Ive been planning on buying a GTX 1070 Ti from amazon. And,Im...confused ? There are like 15 different types of 1070 ti,s however,Price varies ...intensely. Like for example Theres a Gigabyte version thats on sale for 499$ theres one called Asus Rog Strix version,549$ One from MSI for 489$ after sale The last one is from EVGA for 569$ So,Theyre all 1070 Ti's,But it can be 70$ more expensive ? How can there be such a price gap if theyre all the same card eventually ? Whats the difference ? I probably sound so ignorant, please educate me on this topic PS:Im a GPU noob,or normie.whichever you prefer. Building my first gaming rig.So please.go easy

Thank you for the info,some local shop was trying to scam me for 700$ lmao.

1080p. I dont want extremely high resolutions,just a good gaming experience.

So I was building a pc,and Im quite confused on which gpu I should get. Both are in my budget but I wanted to have some leftover bucks for games,controller etc. However,That doesnt seem possible with the 1070. So I thought about the 1060 6gb,But I keep thinking about performance and how big of a difference it would make. So I came to ask, Is is that big of difference between the GTX 1060 6GB and GTX 1070 Ti ? Any suggestion/Recommendation is welcome.
