    Hey guys, so i recently upgraded my PC from a GTX 1060 and 16GB RAM to an RTX 3070Ti and 32GB RAM. However, i still rock the same first gen Ryzen 5 1600 Processor on my Asus Prime B350-Plus Mainboard. I knew that this setup would cause a bottleneck, but i didn't think it would be that bad: I get extreme framedrops and occasional crashes in PUBG and really bad screen tearing in CS:GO. I already cranked the graphics all the way up to ease the CPU load but that doesn't do much. Do you guys have any tips or suggestions for a suitable Processor Upgrade on that Motherboard? I'm currently playing at 1080p but want to upgrade to 1440p eventually.

    Hey guys, recently i thought about buying a new GPU (very likely an RTX 3070 if i can get one). Here's a list of my current setup: CPU : AMD ryzen 5 1600 6x 3,6 Ghz GPU: MSI GTX 1060 6GB Gaming X Ram: 16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3200 Mainboard: Asus Prime B350-Plus PSU: 550 Watt Corsair RMx 80+ Gold Does this setup also Work well with an RTX3070 or would it be better to built a completely new rig? Also would 550 Watt be enough to power the System? Thanks for your Help!

    well but siri is just smoother as far as i know. I can't use GA with my screen off, sometimes it doesn't open certain apps and the reminders don't work at all. Those things don't happen with siri, plus it also gives you a ton of customization with the shortcuts app.

    Well that's a steal, but i have my concerns with pre owened devices, because you don't know if or what parts have been replaced. Often such devices have a worse battery life than new ones.

    Not at all. I value the Interface, the camera, and the smoothness much more than the build quality. Those are my main reasons for switching.

    Good thinking! Are there any release dates or speculations given at the moment?

    When i sent it to the shop which i bought it from, they said, that there was an irreparable issue with one of the touch screen layers. That's all i know. But i mainly want to focus on the (dis)advantages of a new purchase in this Topic.

    They broke down due to a hardware failure, but i guess that could happen to any smartphone. I hope that iPhones last longer, if treated right. I have heard good things in terms of long lasting software support.

    Hey guys, i need your opinion to help me make a decision! So about 2 and a half years ago i bought a Samsung Galaxy s7 edge. I already owned several Samsung phones before, but they all eventually broke down after a few years. However, recently a colleague awoke my interest in the iPhone Xs. He told me that he was extremely pleased with it, so i did a bit more research and i realized how well engineered it is. The whole interaction with the phone seems very smooth, thanks to the good processor and ios 13. I also was stoked by all the new siri functions (mainly the shortcuts app), because i always wanted to use a good voice assistant on my phone. I don't need to say much about the camera, it's just great! Lastly the build quality is excellent, too. Obviously the iPhone Xs comes with a hefty price tag, wich was, until now, my reason not to buy it. But when i recently looked it up online, i found a new 256GB version for "only" 760$. Now, while still being relative expensive, that is a price i would be willing to pay. On the other hand: My current phone is still working. Ok, it has a minor crack on the top, the battery life has gone down and as time went on it became more prone of crashing. But it works :D Ok, now that everything has been said, i am now asking you for advice! Is it woth to upgrade? Every answer is much appreciated!
