  1. theoretically a core 2 quad q6600, is 4 cores, the motherboard theoretically will support it in terms of the lga 775 socket, but look at this link https://www.dell.com/community/Desktops-General-Read-Only/Processor-compatibility-issue/td-p/3350076 if there is no new bios update, your options on cpu support are very limited

    PS4 mods

    rockstar abandoned gta v for ps3 back in 2015 basically, because the dlcs they wanted will not fit inside the ram available on the console the current state of the game, if you have seen, people streaming from xbox directly, the game runs at 10fps more or less the console can't keep up with the load mods means more textures, more resources that the console doesn't have old skyrim and fallout uses a old engine in use for the last 15+ years, the mods you see for these games are not that big, but big enough to still fit and don't completely kill performance the problem with those examples you used is that skyrim and fallout are single player games, doesn't matter if you mess up the game entirely, is your personal experience in gta online, mods and modders would go together, in pc the modders are one of the worst problems we have, i personally regret buying the pc version, when a modder messes up game so bad that crashes to desktop, and that is using resources present in the game, imagine if it had also access to mods to mess it even more on pc you eventually will see a modder making rain airplanes over the city, imagine how the performance tanks before crashing the game
  3. if is so old that doesn't have the 8 pins and i bought a psu 7 years ago and it had those 8 pins, is at least 10 years old, change the psu, capacitors inside it might be near to explode anyway and ready to kill the psu anyway, so better change it some cheap corsair or evga psus will be more than enough for your needs, a 500w unit is more than enough for the 150watts you will need to power that pc the cpu uses like 70 watts, the 1050 another 70 plus the rest of parts, 500watts is perfect for you, way too much, but no 430watts psu these days is decent, so 500w is the new minimum
  4. almost all gpus do this noise under one circumstance or another, some have a hard to hear noise, others sounds alot louder, you decide if the noise is unaceptable and ask for a refund ad find another without the noise or accept it and live with it, is your decision but don't get surprised if it happens again with another brand, even nvidia have this problem from time to time, lets see if intel gpus end up having it too one thing is important here, be sure that the noise comes from the gpu, if the source of noise is different, change gpu will not fix anything, be 100% sure of the source of the noise, then decide what to do
  5. that one on the picture, i think it is not what you need, if we follow color standards and pinout that is a 5v molex to barrel converter but the pin location should give you 12v with that pin configuration it theoretically should work using this to connect to a pair of male molex connector, and avoid cutting the molex female connector on the psu, should be doable but the simplest method is buy the product on the last picture you shared both should work but the already built one is simpler to use
  6. the best performing one depends on what you want to do, how expensive the engine is, what type of tools they already have and the support it asks from the current hardware people have on their pcs there is not a single perfect game engine that fits all the needs some game engines are meant for single player games in small very detailed environments, other game engines will load as fast as they can the new maps when you pass by flying or driving but will take lots of time to load interiors of buildings new engines might be friendly with new hardware, directx11 or 12, older gpus will not handle that or handle it slow the perfect example is fortnite, it is meant to work quite decent on weak old hardware on low resolutions, other games might not even allow you to use low resolutions for engine or game design reasons one comment alot of people does sometimes against some games is lack of optimization, i personally think that some games indeed eat lots of resources and don't deliver as expected this could be caused by the developers not having enough time to make the engine work as good as possible, just deliver game and move to the next project if you look at old games like cs go, this game could not be more optimized i think, some hardware run this game at 500fps while very old hardware might run it at 120fps, is a light game in terms of textures and hardware requirements, but impressive nonetheless recently the discussion to use newer game engines was brought by fallout 76 and the numerous problems, bugs, developer expressed they used the same game engine because they already know how to deal with it because they already know all the tricks, capabilities and limitations, so it would mean start from 0 if they changed engine if a project takes more than 5 years, a developer will not want to change at last moment the game engine, for fear of screwing things up, or loosing time fixing things so much to consider
  7. so, you saw i made a typo, and based from there i see you have free time, and need to pick a fight with someone, nice to see a second person to not only not explaining how to do what op asked nor giving a opinion on the matter, just come and complain, because, why not? very helpful your reply
  8. the noise you describe is called coil whine it happens when as you mention a game with high framerates is being played some manufacturers use come elements on the electric design on the motherboards that are really noisy, is in general terms normal, it happens to most gpus but some are really noisy, some manufacturers might respond under warranty for this noise and replace your gpu with another, that might or might not be as noisy as your current one you decide if you return it as faulty or live with the noise, but is a component in the electrical part(chokes,vrm) on your gpu what makes this coil whine
  9. almost all of my ram kits never are listed on the manufacturer website, i never had a situation where any of them doesn't work what i had is problems with overclocking but xmp works almost always, well always for me, so i am not saying not to do it the way msi is telling you, i am saying that i buy knowing that most manufacturers are in the amd side and will not give you much problems the always for me is referred to other people who indeed had problems running xmp profiles on their motherboards, so you are right on trying to find a kit that is known to work i personally almost always end with corsair, my plan b is kingston i was going to buy that kit for a build i made 2 days ago, but it was expensive here, so i went with my known plan b and also worked i can't say it will 100% work, i say i would buy it, definitively, specially because is lpx so airflow near vrms is not restricted as much as taller ram modules
  10. most of these cameras are quite good but not fast when focusing and not great on the night, but definitively usable, i am looking on one of these where i live, but a older model, it definitively looks very decent
  11. i always find sad to see that a person with lots of money, that likes to show off and doesn't have as much common sense as he or she thinks he has comes to a forum to express opinions really thinking that whatever they do is what others have to do, not taking ito account pros and cons, just go and do whatever you want, doesn't matter if t works or not when it doesn't work, they come saying that program a or game x are to blame for not working with their configurations with your order of ideas just buy 4 titan rtx or wait for titan rtx super, nvlink them in pairs, then install that driver to sli them all 4 together, watercool them, you will need 2 360mm radiators and possibly 2 pumps or one big then when windows refuses to use 3 of them and some games refuse to use more than 2, come here and rant against microsoft, game developers, nvidia and x86 for limiting you in how you use pcs, because no one should tell you what to do am i following correctly your way of see things? pleb people come to this forum expecting decent people replying to their questions, not to se some guy telling them they are plebs i bet you pay for every pc you have, never built one by yourself pleb
  12. if you have to choose, and 4g is more stable on your location, i would terminate that dsl service and live with it, i have friends that use similar connection on similar situtions and i understand why you want and need more, but i bet those copper lines they offer you are basically rusted/rotten and speeds come and go so is basically useless here is the video
  13. 4g speeds and ping are erratic to say the least a local connection not evn on 20mbps is probably a bad adsl connection using old copper if no isp where you live offers coaxial or optical fiber ftth, i understand why you ask for this linus made a video where he found a service that allowed you to do what you ask, join two connections to make them work as one as for doing it locally, order the pc to use both simultaneously, windows by default chooses one adapter and moves internet from there and ignores the other, same for wifi, if is connected to wifi, it will ignore ethernet(s) bridge connections is more meant to be used as your pc acting as a bridge between two networks, not two internet connections, but if you have time, try it, the worst it can happen is that it doesnt work the definitive solution in your case is get better isp offering you coaxial with at least 40mbps or optical fiber with 100mbps or more, whatever you try now, might or might not work with desired or undesied pings or weird hiccups is a temporary solution, a definitive solution is what you need
  14. for video editing 8 cores are better, even if the stupid adobe suite wastes 1 or 2 cores is better if budget is limited, the 3600 is a great option if your friend feels limited, remember that next year we should have a r7 4700 beating both cpus mentioned, so buy a decent otherboard that will support that one in the future and meanwhile find the cheapest one you can and he will be happy with that wahtever you do, don't buy intel, the rumor is that in january more or less they will release i9 10 cores 20 threads and from there all will be multithteaded, so current intels are pretty much obsolete now, they will become competitive with ryzen again, in terms of same cores, same threads, not in price, intel is absurdly expensive most times
  15. i am not familiar with those conenctors, but theoretically, you take a molex conector rom your psu, the yellow iirc is 12v, the black one next to it is the ground or negative some call it, so you use those two, you could use a male molex connector from some old fans, cut wires, solder if needed to that 12 and black cables and feed those connectors but as i said, i never saw such power conector, but theoretically should work, this is how i used to recycle old fans i had but i didin't connected to 12v, i connected to 5v, so fans spin slower
