  1. Looks good to me, it'll definitely do many things. Should be good to go for 144Hz in the future depending on the game. What all do you plan on doing with it?
  2. It'll definitely do fine for light gaming and daily computer use. Don't even need that for it depending which games you are wanting to run.
  3. Are you on a budget? If you are then yes, that'd likely be better than going with a non vega ryzen and getting a gpu.
  4. My brother has a non Ti 1080 running doom on a 52" HDTV at some weird resolution, also does VR. Haven't noticed any lag in it nor any other game we've thrown at it (This is also using an FX 8350 as a cpu). I'd imagine you'd be fine with everything listed, though I haven't tested anything regarding Tomb Raider when it comes to PC.
  5. It'll definitely run GTA V, could you define other big games? Some are even too insane and poorly optimized for the 1080Ti haha.
  6. Game Debate has a ton of info on tech and games in general. They're fully staffed if I remember right with writers and people from the community contributing.
  7. If you don't mind using a server chasis this might work. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0091IZ1ZG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
  8. I'd get more sticks but it just increases the price more from what I've seen for ebay. Wish I had found this sooner honestly. Like the post says, VMs and game servers as well.
  9. Could likely look into getting higher clocked ram.
  10. Alrighty so I figured I'd post this here to see if there were anything better I could do with what I have. Here's my current build: Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 FX-8300 (Stock) 8GB G.Skill RAM (Low for most of what I do, I downgraded from 16 as I hadn't really needed it. Trust me this is covered in this future build.) ASUS GTX 1050Ti ROG STRIX OC 4GB (Preclocked, and can hold a stable OC of 9-13%, once had it get near 21% but crashed.) --Current RX 580 Armor OC 4GB (Underclocked by 7% due to running it on a 6 pin and not 8 pin because I don't trust this motherboard enough haha.) Rosewill Stallion 500M This PC has pretty much ran everything I've wanted it to with relative ease (Disregarding current ram amount) however, the FX 8300's single core performance is pretty much trash so quite a bit of games flop >>HARD<<. A core example of this is the insane amount of stuttering I get in CSGO, so I've decided to pretty much base the new build off of that. Now call me crazy, but this is my current idea of a new build with a price range of 475-500$. Intel - S5520HC SSI EEB 2 x Intel - Xeon X5660 2.8GHz 32GB (2x16 1066 Memory) EVGA GQ 650W When you factor in a new case (Server chasis), heatsinks, and other variables it comes upto around 465$. Could there be anything better is my only question basing this off of SC performance, MC performance, server capabilities (I'm a linux guy, I'll gladly eat up half of this system with VMs in the background.) based on what I'd likely be doing? I know it's not the greatest idea, but it has been praised for doing fairly well on most games given the SC performance. Based on many threads of the same question I know that the CPUs are clockable, my only question is what I could get away with using Thermaltake - Contac Silent 12 74.3 CFM as a cooler. Few threads stated that they managed 4GHz+ using air, I don't think I'd really push it that far without some extensive testing knowing how used products eventually end up, then again the things are extremely cheap so I'd just be able to replace them anyway. My main reasoning to all this is how cheap it is, and it beats what I currently have without taking any losses. What are your thoughts, suggestions, or ideas? This is just what I've found that's within my price range that would not only improve my gaming, but also unlock new things for me to mess around with. I spend my time messing around with distros and learning how things operate, so I feel this would be a great decision in that regard. Any info is appreciated.
