Quite a bit, yeah. Especially on games that's cpu bound. Worst case scenario is good fps but freezing/stuttering on heavy cpu load.

Depends on the games you will be playing and the settings. With your gpu reaching 144fps on most new games would be difficult even at lower graphic setting. So i advised you upgrade the gpu if you want to fully utilised the monitor.

Yeah, but sometimes 1st timer missed these things and complained why the ram won't reach the advertised speed.

Does it crashes directly after you open chrome or after a few page is loaded and running?
I suspect the ram, try reseating or plug it on different slot. 

Yes, or at least try and ask evga if the can update the bios for you if you ship it to them. Not everyone have an 8th gen intel cpu lying around.

Ok, it might be the bios is out of date and not support that cpu yet. Any bios update for your mobo?

But i suggest you go for the pcie x1 wifi card. More stable compared to usb ones in my experience.

Not entirely right. M.2 is a form factor that uses M.2 connector, there are sata based ssd in M.2.
If you want to compare speed then you have to compare the interconnect, currently available are sata based and pcie based.
 
In practical speed limits, sata is around 600MB/s while pcie x4(which is most common) has around 3.9GB/s.
That being said those speed is only a practical max speed, real world performance varies depending on the hardware.
 
Currently, pcie based ssd only comes in 2 form factor for consumer grade ssd, which is M.2/U.2 and Pciex card.
 
So if you want performance you go for pcie based ssd, commonly comes in M.2/U.2 form factor.
 

It'll work, it's standardized so no matter where you buy it'll have to comply to the standard.
 
The only thing you should care is if you buy psu from abroad since ac input voltage vary between regions, but some psu does have auto input selection so it'll work nevertheless, usually the input is labelled 110-220v.
 
Also be careful about warranty, some brand has international warranty, most doesn't.

On a serious note, i only see one reason atm regarding to mac specifically. There's a lot of companies out there that requires an expertise in using a mac as a job requirements before event consider hiring a worker. And it's easier to get familiar to mac os by buying mac rather than trying to build a hackintosh.

That's called cloning. You clone a hdd to another then do whatever you gonna do to each of them afterwards.
-clonezilla
-macrium reflect
-shadow copy
-easeus todo backup
-norton ghost
 
Pick your poison, they're all free or free trial application to clone your hdd. Even if you clone your os hdd it'll still works exactly like the source.
 
The only thing that's most of those application needs is the target hdd is bigger or equal in capacity than the hdd that's going to be cloned.
 
If you yalking abour real-time mirroring be prepared to provide 6gb of ram just to realtime mirror two 1tb hdd.

Is your new hdd capacity equal or bigger than the old one? If it is, use clonezilla, you have to make a live cd/usb-fd tho. Lots of tutorial on the net.

Well, it's based on unix, so that's a plus for a developer, since everything you need to develop is there already and it will behave exactly like it did since most web host server is running unix.
Also, cmiiw , there's more app for graphics design in mac than it is on windows.
Also, the ecosystem in mac is tightly controlled, so usually less conflicts, less malware ect.
Also, their retina display is quite good for photographer/graphic designer.
 
Damn that's quite alot of also hahaha.
Still a lesser os than Linux tho, since linux is free and I'm broke lol.

I'm sure i won't be the only one here that'll tell you this; don't build a pc gradually, if you want it to be very up to date at the end.
 
Buy those lenovo or dell or hp used office pc and slap a decent gpu in there, when you saved enough then you build new with current hardware.

Get better internet connection?

I only came here to say one thing

Some suggests that the 8086k cpus are probably cherrypicked, or just binned better.

Consult to LTT psu tier list, anything tier 3 and above is a solid pick.

Disappointed but not surprised.

No, i use a 24pin extender i bought at my local pc store.
