    edit: if you go amd, just wait a few months and prices should drop when new CPUs drop. Or get one of the new cpus when they come out, up to you.

    Yeah I use one with my PS4 actually. It’s super fast, a little overkill for space but then you got plenty of room for any games or whatever.

    star_pilot475 reacted to BluJay614 in Vega finally beats RTX? Vulkan strikes again!   
    Noticed this while going through Google News. Straight from WCCFTech and TechQuila, both will be linked to at the bottom.

     
    Well, we haven't heard anything from Vulkan since Doom (2016), so it's nice to see that Team Red is getting some love. I would like to say that I disagree with the claim that it's made NVIDIA's success obsolete, especially with the marketshare, lack of decent competition, and lack of implementation of Vulkan(Though the same can be said about RTX at this point, but I digress). Would also disagree that DX12 has made things worse, just in the beginning, there was no motive to utilize it the way it should. Now, it's more the way games are being marketed and the kind of bugs being found that are making them garbage.(We will not speak of some of the horrors that EA, Bethesda, Blizzard and the like have tried cramming down our throats)
    Well now, ain't that something. At 1080, even the air cooled Vega 64 which start at $420 (if you can find one) is readily beating the ~$1100+ RTX 2080 Ti. Even the $279+ Vega 56 is matching the 2080 Ti in the lows, and is 11 FPS lower in the average, which would make it a smoother experience, at that that high a framerate, more people won't be able to tell the difference.
    The story continues with the gaps closing, and NVIDIA gaining back the lead at 4K, though by a small margin. Still, even the RX 590 is putting up a fight against the much more expensive RTX 2070 at 1440p and 4K.
    Well, while game was only just recently released, and does not seem to be getting the best reception, it does seem to be an AMD sponsered title, and use their open source API, which would give them the obvious edge, though this much at lower resolutions is a bit much.
     
    Oh, I don't doubt for a moment that they will try to come back, should they deem it worthy. With the reception of the game however.... Well, only time will tell. Either way, a very nice showing from AMD, and something for Team Red to be happy about.






    As promissed, here are the links(TechQuila was used for this, as it seemed that WCCFTech was just using their artical to go off of):

    Might as well go for the 360mm, Corsair is just kinda my preference and would look really good with this build. ? 
     
    Its really up to you with the 9980xe, but honestly I’d just go with the 9900k or wait for AMD's Zen 2.

    Much Much better star_pilot475.  Good job with the build.  OP grab this build also whats 100 dollars more to get the 9900k instead of 9700k.  If your playing at 1080p gaming then the 2060 6GB will suffice.

    Yes you can add a USB Hard Drive to the AirPort. It would act as network attached storage for you internal network accessible from any device on your network. You can also enable access from outside your network as well. Benefits would be be able to access files from multiple devices, you could backup files from devices to that disk for safe keeping. Downside to this is file transfer speeds tend to be slow less than 100MBps especially when writing or reading from the drive over WiFi.
