Budget (including currency): 2000€ Country: Germany Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Case, aswell some drives will come in from old build. Upgrading from i7-6700. 144hz is a must, currentely on GTX1070 waiting for availability of cards (not decided if Nvidia or Radeon though). Hey Guys, my new PC build is slowly taking on forms. I will get my 5900X next week I think until then I´m not fully set on the Motherboard, aswell not entirly on the RAM. At the moment I definetly have the - 5900X in (duh) - aswell an BeQuiet 750W Straight Power Platinum PSU - BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 4 - and an Samsung 970 Evo 1tb M.2 SSD I've looked at a couple of Mobo's and at the moment I´m more interested in the Aorus Elite B550. Problem here is, that I haven't found anything about M.2 behaviours. Means that I have seen some issue that came up that if you plug in 2 M.2. SSDs (which will be the case in my build aswell - bringing a second 256gb Samsung M.2. over from my old build), that some SATA Ports will be disabled, does someone know if thats the case with the Aorus Elite B550 aswell by any chance? I´m planning on keeping my old CD Drive (drop the old what are those meme here lol), aswell my old HDD for Data grave things. Aswell one 500gb SSD - I suppose I could drop my old 120gb SSD with two games on it. But that would "free-up" only one SATA port. Would still need atleast 3 working SATA ports, so I can't afford of disabling 2 out of the 4 on the Aorus. In terms of RAM I've made up my mind about 32gb <-> 16gb and I´m going for 16gb, because there is really nothing that would justify 32gb. The problem I´m facing now is, that I´m insecure about the performance in the long run in case I do wanna go up to 32gb in the future. I wanna keep the possibilty open though. Are there any downsides of going for 2x8gb Kit (Crucial Ballistix 3600-CL16) and later MAYBE upgrading it to 32gb? And if the Aorus Elite accepts the 3600MHz RAM, because according to the manual it just goes up to 3200. But on the Mobo website it lists 3600 (O.C.) as supported, even goes up until 4400 (O.C) I think. Would love to hear your opinions and inputs about this.

I thought about changing the paste, but I got my doubts about loosing guarantee..

Hey guys! I noticed that my G5 runs extremely hot. Last week I played Diablo 3 on rather low-mid settings even though I could run it much higher. I got an i7-8750H, RTX 2060 and 16gb RAM. Yesterday I tried to undervolt the processor (-200mV on the processor itself and -145mV on the Cache). I used ThrottleStop for this. But after running Prime95 a few minutes the temps were still at 95° and even spiked the 100° one time. I'm looking for additional tips for what I can do further now. I thought about changing the thermal paste but I'm not sure if that is against my guarantee guidelines.. Tommorow I'm contacting Dell I think, I got a free year of premium support though. But maybe some of you guys can give me some ideas for solutions.

Opinions about the AOC G2590PX maybe?

well, 24 inch it is then! A few guys recommendated me the Samsung C24FG70/73 Curved Monitor. But I have zero experience with Curved Displays, actually never took a look into a curved display ever.. So I don't know if it's big change if I use one curved and one flat monitor?

Hey Guys, i´m currently playing with the idea of finally getting a 144hz Monitor.. I don't know that much about monitors so I´m asking you guys if you can give me some recommendations for a new one. My Budget is at 300€ and the Monitor should obviously have 144hz. I haven't quite decided yet if it should be a 24" oder 27" monitor. I´m currently on two 24" displays, one a very old Samsung and my main monitor a AOC G2460V. It would be awesome if some of you can give me some tips and advice on this one! Cheers

Hey Guys, i´m currently writing a paper on the topic Videostreaming and Video-on-Demand. For further examples later I wanted to take YouTube and Netflix as examples. But before I get to those examples I have write the basics about Videostreaming, which technologies are out there and how do they work. My professor gave me some tags I should look into like MPEG-4 and RTSP. After that I can get into the Video-on-Demand topic with YouTube and Netflix. So my question now is, what else I can look into for technologies, even though I know a bit about Networks and PCs I don't know that much about the in-depths considering Videostreaming. I´m totally new to this, but interested! Furthermore I need some kind of information how the VoD works considering YouTube and Netflix - the technology behind practically. It would be awesome if some guys of you can give me some tips what I should look up/look into to get the right informations. Eitherway thank you in advance for all answers! Greetings, Chris
