    We all hate apple because we know their pcs are piece of plastic with some silicone.

    StarfleetCap reacted to Sakkura in Why are the 980ti more expensive than the 1080ti?   
    They do. The only reason there are even a handful of 980 Ti's left on shelves is that very few people buy them now. The card has been out of production for a long time.

    Go grab W10 home from Microsofts site.  You can install and use without a key.  Only limitation is that customizing the desktop/fonts/etc is disabled after 30 days or so.
     
    If it is still slow, the HDD is likely dying.

    StarfleetCap reacted to Crunchy Dragon in How much is this Worth?   
    Ryrzen 5 is a cheaper and better option than the 7600K.
    EDIT: Also bear in mind that the 7600K was never really that good of a chip, and is a couple years old at this point.

    Dude, your pc is gonna be high end if this continues. 8700k is already in the "high" tier in consumer cpu market.

    I agree, even with 2 1070 ti, it doesn't need over 800-900 watts.

    The GPU i already have in my current setup and i need the extra cores more due to streaming etc

    StarfleetCap got a reaction from slysnake96 in Is this a "good" Mid level gaming system   
    No, i5 8600k doesn't have hyperthreading (doubling the logical cores) while 8700k does. But most games doesn't use more than 2 cores, I guess thats true.
  17. Agree
    StarfleetCap got a reaction from slysnake96 in Is this a "good" Mid level gaming system   
    Ok, than you can upgrade the gpu later or wait a bit  more.

    StarfleetCap reacted to Spotty in Is this a "good" Mid level gaming system   
    How many graphics cards are you planning on powering that you need a 1050W PSU?
    Swap that for a good quality 550W.
     
    Grab an 8600k instead and save some money. 1060 6GB is going to be plenty in those for 1080p gaming at 60/75fps. I wouldn't bother spending more on a better GPU if you're not planning on changing your monitor.
     
    Wait...

    StarfleetCap reacted to Spudbilly in I think my cpu is broken... help   
    I would clear cmos and then use asus's proprietary bios flash tool via usb. If that fails then yes you might have messed something up. My quick googling told me that some svid setting slong with adaptive voltages etc can make the voltages go too high. What were your last known voltages and clocks etc..?

    StarfleetCap reacted to SimplyChunk in GTA 5 CPU Usage?   
    Go into an invite only session (if you're online). Then take one of your cars and go to the lago zancudo facility location. drive down to it from the road and behind you'll find two trees. Park your car between them and spin your camera around a full 360 a couple of times with vsync on.  If you're getting dips when the camera passes north (towards chiliad-ish way) then adjust your settings down until you don't.  99.9% of your dips will be gone then

    I think it's the limit of a 1060. I wouldn't worry that much about it.

    Yeah you could get an i3 hyperthreading or i5 7600 or something like that. You could also maybe overclock your ram but I dont know if that mobo allows overclocking. And the hdd might be too slow.
