My favourite vid from Linus!

 
 
My favourite project from JayZ! 


 
Well, a new GPU would be a hell of a difference for me! I'm currently using a 8400 gs and I'm unable playing ANY games. The PSU would be way too much, but my current China-300W-Psu couldn't handle sth new, so any upgrade is welcome!

Made me realize how little of a difference there is between amd and intel in real life usage.

 

 

Helped me choose what switch to buy!

I really liked this video, as it brings in both science and common sense to an otherwise often emotional topic.

 

This video was useful to me at the time of building my rig. Both channels seem to show you what the "real deal" is when it comes to common misunderstandings. 



 

Loads of community interaction and CS:GO gameplay

When I was building my gaming PC the following JayzTwoCents video was the one I referred to the most. The most helpful How-To I found anywhere!!!

 

 

Now that I have finished building my Beast the following TechQuickie video was the most interesting for me, allowing me to maximise my gaming experience beyond what my old pile of junk was able to do.:

You guys have helped me out tremendously in knowing how to pick what parts for my upcoming build. I am $319 away from completing my build, and a free video card would cut that down significantly, and even be a better video card than I'd intended on buying. Therefore, entering this giveaway is an amazing idea for me

i need a new graphics card but im on a strict budget and most of the people on this forum have all the god gpu's but i can only run games at low preset, so it will be helpful if you could consider me as the winner :) it would help out alot because i miss going on games with my friends because they have the quality gpu's i feel left out ;( this is the reason why i subbed, the videos are very factfull and straight forward and jayz videos are funny and he can round everything up neatly ;) i have subbed for a long time now. hope you can get back to me please, thanks. :)

Favorite video because the info from it is not enought. How about if i want to get 90% efficiently right before i get bottleneck on a budget ? There is no table for that right? As example CPU -GPU bottlenecks. Why Pentium G3420 + 260X does well but G3420+ GTX 750 Doesnt ? Same game and same sistem. 

 

 

PC Gaming will never . No comment.
