What’s the worst part of your rig?

[Spotty]

Probably that I have a 1080ti and I'm using a 1080p/60fps monitor.
When I bought the 1080ti I was planning on buying a new monitor as well, and there was a lot of discussion at the time about 4k144hz monitors being released soon, so I didn't want to drop $1000+ on a Gsync 1440p144hz monitor with 4k/144hz supposedly just around the corner. They kept getting delayed and delayed, and now with my current financial situation I can't really justify the cost of a decent monitor at the moment.

My FX 8350 cpu. Slow and heats up pretty hard in the summer, not to mention the power. Also lost the silicon lottery.

[GDRRiley]

at the time I paid just short of 300$ for a 6600K for the price I should have just gotten a 6700K

[Jaker788]

The fact that it restarts if i move anything or tap the case too hard..  It's a first gen Ryzen build and case too, someday I'll take it apart and rebuild.

[Solderben]

My worst part of my rig is my broken Thermaltake - Smart Pro RGB 850W 80+ Bronze Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply that's apparently broken. I'm probably just going to return it and get a new one.

The fans on my Corsair H110i GTX, unbelievably loud, you have no idea, if it is at more than 70% speed then you better reach for a pair of earmuffs! My 1U rackmount server from 2004 with Delta fans is quieter and that says a lot lol. My H110i GTX also struggles to cool my 6700K, 85C - 95C when under AIDA64 FPU stress test.

No parts of my MacBook Pro are bad. 

 

Just kidding

The GPU (AMD 450) sucks bad, they could have done better. 

[Stefan Payne]

the memory.

Only have shitty Micron DDR4-2400 RAM for my Ryzen 7/1700x.

 

And of course the SSD. Because there is none. It died and I haven't replaced it (yet)...

[Crunchy Dragon]

Lack of an SSD and only 8Gb RAM.

[UnwantedLinks]

this bad A6 apu, a trashy R4 graphics card, 4 gb of ddr3 memory, and 250 gig hard drive

reseat the block and apply just a bit of paste, make sure the backplate isn't loose

and please set the fans to 600 RPM, 1000 if ambient temp is 30C +

The chassis, when I built my PC I went out with a really cheap case, no slot for SSD and really bad cable management.

Maybe I wish I had 16GB RAM, other than that I'm pretty happy with my build.

[RollinLower]

the 128GB Sandisk SSD. the plastic for the SATA power is broken, so the plug is just hanging on the pins right now

also, i kinda wish i got a monoblock instead of the EVO TR4. especially if i ever want to get a 2nd gen threadripper in there.

[Coaxialgamer]

The case .

I'm still rocking my corsair spec 03 case that i bought for 35$ in 2015 . Cable management and flexibility are poor , and i had to take the angle grinder to it. And because of poor airflow i don't have my side panel on.

I have done that, and it’s all done correctly. I just think that I didn’t exactly get the best unit. I put a small blob in the middle and let the cooler spread it out. Unfortunately I did use a cheap white compound but that is all I had and I might try again with a quality paste. It runs fine otherwise, just a little hot.

The bill

[ZcanKal]

My mouse and keyboard, I have a wireless Logitech mouse that I don't even remember the model number of, and a nameless membrane keyboard.

 

My monitor is also only 1600x900, but it is at 75Hz.

 

I only have 320GB of HDD space total, and only 8 gigs of DDR3 1333MHz

[drk]

One of my rigs has a 4790K with a stock Intel cooler on it. It's not a recommended pairing and will soon be replaced. 

[Lathlaer]

The worst part of my rig is also the best one - because it was my first LC attempt I keep looking at it more often than I need "just in case", expecting a tube to disconnect from the fitting or some other unexpected shit ;-)

[Trik'Stari]

My desk is so old it came off of a ship that had sail (not a joke either. It's an antique)

 

 

While that might sound awesome, it's not a computer desk. It's big enough but the way it's constructed precludes the use of a monitor arm.

 

Also has very little legroom.

[themctipers]

desktop:
keyboard. I type on romer g

 

albeit better quality romer g. using them in store, they feel like shitty membranes, but mine feels much different from them, weird. I much prefer MX blues but I won't be replacing my G910 until it dies.

 

laptop:
GPU. dGPU (MX150 non maxQ) is only slightly faster than Intel UHD 620, getting about 1k points in 3D mark.

 

laptop 2:
cooling. it can't take the  heat of the i5 2410m. it's supposed to take the heat of both a i5 2410m and gt 540m under load

battery, as there is none.

 

laptop 3:

the GPU. Intel GMA 950 is fucking useless. There is no fixing this, CPU rendered graphics is usually what it uses.

[PlayStation 2]

My storage. Honestly, my 7850 is still relatively decent for everything I do, but I'm rocking a laptop hard drive and a decade old 360GB desktop drive. Yeah.

Even though I have a 1440P, I have to say my monitor as well.  Considering it starting to show issues, unless I can figure out how to correct the issue.  But, probably need to update it since its only hookup is a dual DVI.
