  1. Hey guys, I purchased a 2070S that came with a copy of the new cod. You download it through nvidia geforce experience. The issue- I already own it. To further the issue- it can only be redeemable by someone with the same hardware (2070S). This is a means of not giving it to your friends or loved ones because you know, fuck that apparently. I dont know anyone with this GPU that doesn't own the game already. The code expires on 1/07. I don't need any money for it but if you felt like throwing me a venmo I wouldn't deny it. It just feels like a waste not letting anyone use it you know? Again I believe all you need is a 2070s, maybe you need the same model? Not sure. If anyone wants to take a stab at it let me know Logan
  2. I've compared the 3 you suggested and they look nearly identical. I am not stuck on the aorus I just saw it was comparable and that it was recommended in other builds. I will swap it out for the msi x570 pro. Thank you! What was wrong with the b450?
  3. Really? How would you price it out. Current gen new products with similar performance come to about that price. I've taken very good care of it

I have 3 monitors and usually have discord video up with one of them, and if not a twitch stream. I have been having issues keeping what I would deem acceptable frames in game while doing these other activities so I would like to do the fun thing (not the "right thing" or most cost effective) and build a new pc. I have read into the Gen4 M.2 and I'm really excited about that, but with its heat spreader I am concerned it may be in the way of the cpu cooler or the gpu. After digging around it seems it should be fine, but if anyone has experience with this please let me know. I know the Ryzen 5 3600 is almost identical in game performance, but with these added activities I think the 7 is worth the extra coin. I also plan on getting into video recording or streaming in my downtime. Questions, comments, concerns? Let me know! Just curious about everyone's thoughts. Thanks, Logan
  5. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0131GA4VE/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 mobo are you talking about capture cards?
  6. The R5 3600 is $200, i78700 is ~300. The r5 3600 cooler combo seems like a hell of a deal. I'll be using the free unactivated win10 OS so no worry there. I could use the same ram, but I've read that Ryzen chips eat up ram pretty bad. Ram is cheap right now I could grab 16gb @3000 for like $70.
  7. From what I've seen the equivalent is the i7 8700 right? Pretty similar performance but about $100 more? Also, I would upgrade my Ram to 16gb 3000 if I did that, especially if I went AMD
  8. Hello! First post on the forum I was hoping I could get some help. Current system: I5-6600k gtx 1070 8gb 2144 Ram 500gb M.2 storage ( I know its not a lot but I dont need more) MSI z170A pc mate mobo 1440p 144hz monitor. So. I mostly play overwatch and have gotten into the new COD. I run into issues because I play with friends on discord using video chat on another monitor. It adds a lot to the experience to see my friends faces when I defeat them in 1v1s. When I'm not on discord I usually have a twitch stream up or a youtube video while I'm playing. I see that my CPU is usually maxed, but I know windows 10 likes to do that no matter what. I built my PC in Q4 of 16 so it isnt terribly old, but I do wish I knew Ryzen was coming out soon after. My thoughts are to upgrade the mobo and get into a Ryzen 3600 but hold onto my 1070 for a bit? I'm starting my first real job out of college in January as an accountant and I would like something fun to come home to after the 60+hr work week this tax season. Open to all price range suggestions. Looking forward to responses. Thank you for everyone's time, I appreciate it! -Logan
