Project Shhh!

DarkBlade2117

Is that with the Samsung SSD? If so, no

No, SanDisk SSDPLUS

 

EDIT- I Think it is because my Mobo only supports Sata 2. My Mobo is truly "bottlenecking" my system in a way because I can't overclock, no USB 3.0, no Sata 3 and PCIe 2.0 x16. I think a good thing right now would be to find a cheap ATX Mobo on eBay that has all this and supports my APU and go from there. At least it will allow me to use my system to its full potential.

eh, honestly Id just suffer a bit until you can snag a z97 (or any 1150 motherboard) and a CPU

Problem with that is I truly don't know when I will be able to get a new Mobo and CPU. I'd have to get something from some sort of give away or receive some cash somehow. If I can find one with everything I need for $20 or less I might go for it but no more than $25.

 

Ohh and the EVGA GS replacement arrived today.

So it has been awhile though nothing has happened. Other then the RMA came back and my PC is now in the Silent Base 800.

 

I do though now own GTA V, I got my CPU to 3Ghz though I truly need to replace the stock fan for like a cheap $7 one because this thing sounds like a legit Vacuum cleaner.

 

Hopefully by the end of the month I will have an i3-6100 with a B150M motherboard. Though, unless I come up with like an extra $50, I will have to get a mobo that supports DDR3 ram. So far it is looking like around $190-$200 for the new CPU + Mobo.

 

On GTA V High- Very High settings with Grass on Normal, I got an avergae of around 45 FPS, a max of 60FPS though a minimum of 24 FPS ( cinematic :) ) when some explosions happened. Though if I turn shaders and texture back down to High it is a Average of 50, Max of 70, Minimum of 35 :D

R9 290 PowerColor PCS+ Ordered.

Picture will arrive when it arrives.

I am quite aware of the bottlenkeck, I was looking at getting my CPU motherboard and RAM first but in the end it makes more sense for me to get the R9 290 than sell my 750Ti. I need about $250, will get hopefully $80 for my 750Ti plus $130 from my Cousin's that owe me money. So need to get like $40 which I can do.

Things are going to change, going to put the old parts and reasons in a spoiler tomorrow update with what I plan to have in the future.
