    That will take a bigger cpu later if needed.   720 is more power than is needed which is fine.  PSUs wear out and 720 is an odd number.  You might wind up having to replace the PSU, but that will be under $100 which still puts you well ahead of #4

    For now I'm just gonna leave the setup like it is. Maybe upgrade in the future when it's really needed.

    Then #2 if you have the cash, #3 if you want to save, ignore 1 and 4.

     

    motherboard may matter for #2 though.  If it’s a really weak motherboard it loses a bit of ground.  Not enough, but a bit.

    This is the motherboard,

    Asrock Fatality B450 gaming-Itx/ac

    And it has a 720 watt

     

  3. Hello everyone, 

     

    I've got too many choices and I would like some advice from you guys.

     

    First setup: GTX 1080Ti with an Ryzen 3 3300X, 16 GB DDR4 2133mhz = 1050 euro

    Second setup: RTX 2080, AMD Ryzen 3600, 2 x 8 GB 3600mhz = 1100 euro
    Third setup: 1070Ti,Ryzen 3 2200g, 8GB DDR4 2133mhz = 700 euro + complete setup (monitor, rgb keyboard, mouse)
    Fourth setup: GTX 1080Ti, I7 7700K, 2 x 8 GB 2800mhz = 1175 euro

    Which one should I take?

    Then try cleaning the fans,vents and the heatsink (between the thins dust may build up)

    Also done that, I dropped to DX11 and i dont stutter anymore?? Playing on ultra..with 80+ fps

     

    i got this from Alienware;

     

    As the coffeelake processor supports higher clock rate than kabylake or older processors, users may easily notice that the Alienware 13R3, 15R3, 15R4, 17R4, 17R5 generates more heat compared to previous generation platforms. Therefore Dell engineering optimized the system to tolerate higher temperature from design perspective, and the new specification for Alienware 15 R4 / 17 R5 is:

    CPU peak temperature will be no greater than 100 degree C

    Below is the table for the thermal specification in component basis. For Alienware 13R3, 15R3, 17R4, this is applicable with BIOS version S1.0.9_K1.0.1 ,S1.0.9_K1.0.1 or higher.

    Component Thermal peak specification
    (degree C)
    Processor 100
    GPU 94
    SSD 81/78 *
    HDD 69/60 *
    Memory 95

     

    Download and install any temperature monitoring tool such as HWiNFO64 or RealTemp and reply with screenshots of the results, if the temperatures exceed the previous figures.

    I told you, something is running on the background, so malware most probably. Oh! If it's a laptop you have to clean it as well! Maybe a fan is blocked by dust. I ve had a similar problem once

    I’m resetting the laptop erasing everything on the drive. I will see if it helps. I also ordered Grizzly thermal paste, will arrive today.

    Even when the laptop is resetting the fans go loud 😷😷
