I would likely upgrade at the end of the year so I suppose I'll wait to see how the zen 3 launch goes to decide.

I do want to use Christmas as an excuse to upgrade, so I may honestly just look at getting a 3800X or something, it's only a year old anyway and I'm pretty sure I'd be happy with that upgrade from a 4690K lol.

I mean going back to a system that doesn't have an SSD is infuriating to me lol. Everything is just slow, waiting for the start menu to pop up is slow. It's also that I paid the extra for an NVMe drive but don't get the speed benefit of having it, so currently it was a bit of a waste. I've seen benchmarks of people getting faster than what I'm getting so I think it might be how the PCIe lanes are setup on this board or something.

I mean I don't honestly neeed it but it would be nice for the few situations it hangs up. I do want M.2, I upgraded to a second hand Asus Z97-AR to get M.2 but I'm not sure if it's running at full speed.

I currently have an i5 4690K @ 4.4GHz with a GTX 1060 6GB. Had the 4690K for around 5 years and the 1060 for around 4 now. I'm looking to upgrade to keep up with the times and to get some more performance for the things that need it. I mostly play eSport titles but there are some more intensive games I play like Rust or even the new Call of Duty that I'd wanna try that might not run great. I do also use my PC for some 3D modelling, some video editing, some programming and occasionally running game servers for my friends to play on (mostly minecraft). Some actions in Fusion 360 take a loooonngg

I got a new monitor for my birthday a few months ago and for some reason with that monitor connected it won't let me boot to BIOS, nothing happens if I press delete when booting. If I connect a different monitor as a second monitor it lets me boot to BIOS with 2 connected. I'm not sure where the issue lies but I will list some relevant specs below. This monitor behaves differently than the previous monitor I used, changing input on the monitor acts like the monitor is completely disconnected from my PC which causes the monitors to briefly go black as if it was just connected.

If I just googled audio source switcher or something similar instead I would have found more of what I wanted... welp

That switching box seems to be what I would be after. But I kinda want the opposite of the splitters functionality of the splitters, unless they have potential of running in reverse?

I have a set of speakers going through a CD changer thing because I was just given them by a neighbour. I usually have my chromecast audio plugged into them but sometimes I like to plug them into my PC for sim racing and sometimes watching videos. How would I go about connecting both my PC and chromecast audio to the speakers at the same time? I googled it and mostly found people asking to use both inputs simultaneously, which is not what I want. How would I go about this? I wouldn't be opposed to a different amp for the speakers if its smaller than the current CD changer.

Thankss

I'm completing a college project on autonomous vehicles and have created a short questionnaire to provide some primary data to write about. If anyone could spare 2 minutes to complete my questionnaire that would be much appreciated. http://bit.ly/2OtXjr9 Thankss

Hmm I was given average core of 83 pfff Edit: Actually says that the dominant limiter is power, handy, but I figured that anyway.

Don't really know why I didn't realise that I'm probably crashing occasionally in time spy cus the core clock is slightly too high rather than the memory clock causing. I couldn't find the auto oc thing so I changed my skin and I'm currently running that.

Btw does 3DMark read half the memory clock because it's DDR?

Temperature isn't really problem so I've just left the core voltage up because from what I understand it's still safe? First time I overclocked this card I had similar memory clock but around 400 was showing artifacts so I dialed it back. Tried time spy and had to dial it back even further to even complete runs? I'm going to try higher memory clocks on heaven like was suggested by boggy and see what I can get to and maybe I'll try firestrike. Is that normal firestrike?
