    star_pilot475 got a reaction from Origami Cactus in Should you spend extra on a higher end CPU to future proof your system?   
    For us, *cough* low budget-gamers, it doesn’t make sense to spend a lot of money on the cpu, and have to cheap out in other areas.

    I would go full Logitech, they have the highest quality stuff in general, but all Corsair could be good too, if you can tolerate the Icue software.

    @wisedrgn Completely up to you, but maybe it’s time to upgrade. Your current i7 is still solid, but new stuff completely blows it out of the water. Here’s an example build of a pretty insane system under $2500 that you could upgrade to.

    star_pilot475 got a reaction from Epimetheus in Upgrading,opinions if its worth it? (Gaming)   
    It would be a good upgrade @Apm90x but that motherboard isn't so great, and neither is the ram as @Epimetheus said. 
    maybe something like this could be better, with a better quality motherboard and faster ram (plus more quantity too) for under £250

    Not super old or retro, but I used to have a GeForce 9500 GT similar to this one

    Would be really cool to see a really maxed out mITX build with perhaps dual watercooled GPU, but in a really tiny enclosure. Think something like this.

    star_pilot475 got a reaction from TechyBen in Is there any software that makes your computer faster (not hardware fix)?   
    I’ve been using Linux Mint on my laptop with a Celeron 900 (single core) and 4gb of ram. It’s actually fast and can play a YouTube video without crashing like it did while on windows 10. Could be a solid idea for you too @youself

    star_pilot475 reacted to RollinLower in If I buy the 980 ti, wouldnt it be almost the same as a titan x?   
    depends what kind of Titan X.
    the 980Ti comes pretty close to the Maxwell Titan X, tough the Pascal Titan X runs circles around both of them.

    Make the LTT studio toilet RGB and synced to lights around the studio, the louder the delivery the more they alternate colour.
