    That is why I bought a $500 laptop that had a 4th Gen i7-4700MQ in it, well that was 2015 so I might have got a good deal.

    I have already decided on the 1660, I am just wondering if the design and cooling benefits of the Gaming X are worth the extra $30.

    Vega 8 is it right now.
  4. FadedCrown
    The ones that are $220

    It's $250, $30 bucks more than the cheapest 1660 cards. Is is worth the extra $30? I really like the design of this card but what about the cooling improvements?
  6. FadedCrown
    That machine is worth about $350 right now, so throw in a mid tier graphics card and sell for about $500+. For your new machine you should paint that card yellow, it would look really nice.
  7. FadedCrown
    Why not? Do you have a graphics card?
  8. FadedCrown
    Try it

    It is pretty bad. 5 GHz is unusable and 2.4 GHz is usable but not good.

    House was built about 20 years ago.

    Things on my end are actually pretty stable, but for my brother, he is the furthest from the router and he constantly drops out, I can try to run Ethernet throughout the house.

    I should have been more clear, we have a router, it is a Sagemcom Fast 5260.
  13. FadedCrown
    It is most likely the connection to the router, I do believe our modem is DOCSIS 3.0 16x4, so that may not be the issue.

    You understand we are in the late 2010s, right?

    I'm literally just trying to get a good internet modem that also has a phone jack on it.
  16. FadedCrown
    Yes and I do not know of a way to get an Ethernet cable to his room, shoot I don't even have one on mine and it is pretty close to our setup.

    Our speeds are fine but the consistency is not, I just want 100 Mb/s and a stable connection across my house. My younger brother has tons of dropouts and lag spikes because he is the furthest from our modem and router.

    Our internet has been pretty bad as of late, from dropping out sometimes to not working on certain devices and I was wondering if there is anyway we can get a solid connection with a phone jack.

    Not really, the 8600K is better because it costs $100 more than the one you are comparing it to.
  20. FadedCrown
    Not much of an improvement? https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-R9-290-vs-AMD-RX-Vega-56/2171vs3938
  21. FadedCrown
    Except the 8600K costs $100 more dollars than the 1700.
  22. FadedCrown
    I think we worry too much about bottlenecking, you have a 1700 which is an 8-core overclockable possessor that runs at 3.00 GHz stock and you are worried about a mid-high tier graphics card bottlenecking it? Short answer is no it will not.

    Am I the only one rocking a Corsair mouse? I have the M65 Pro RGB, it's pretty cheap, feels nice but comes pretty heavy. The weights are adjustable though. I just prefer mine heavier.
  24. FadedCrown
    I mean they are basically equal
  25. FadedCrown
    Needs some RGB
