>>711898461
is it really worth getting an SSD? like is it a major boost?
>>711898461
>>711897294
yoooo lol its about time for a gpu upgrade
and a 10 upgrade
>>711898587
worth
>>711898788
960 guy here, i was thinking about upgrading to a 980 and getting an SSD, any other recommendations on a better gpu thats not ludicrously expensive?
>>711898880
1060 instead, dont even fuck with last gen
>>711899007
looking at the price of a windforce 1060 rn on amazon and fuck yes i just found my next GPU, thanks bro!
>>711898587
if you have sata 3.0, yes
>>711899180
980 beats a 1060,
1070 or bust bro.
With your CPU i'd say even go 1080
>>711899410
i mean im willing top drop £1000 for an SSD and a GPU so i dont even care too much if its overpriced im looking for performance
Feast yer eyes
>>711899569
are you liquid cooling that shit using lava? wtf?

>>711899508
Then buy a 1080 and whatever you have left use to buy an M.2 or NVMe drive.
>>711899611

Don't know what the fuck is going on with my ram
>>711902155

i've never understood the mics hdds movement,
do you not like uniformity?
So, question. My cpu gets hot. Very hot. Intel i5 3450. Witcher 3 temps are like 90 C. Idle is 50. How to fix this?
bought a 2nd hand gpu
>>711904094
might need to reapply thermal paste?

>>711905086
Nice specs
my old gpu was spazzing out since the day I bought it, processor is still doing well so I just went dicks out on a new 1080
Anyone who has a GTX 1070 or 1080, and doesn't have at least a 1440p or 144hz monitor, is a fucking idiot.
If you're going to stay at 60hz, at least go up to 1440p or 4K.
havent updated my pc in nearly a year
>>711905613
That processor will bottleneck that GPU, I know this because my i5 4670k bottlenecked my 1070 so I got an i7 4790k. >>711905086
>>711905909
yeah, I knew that when I got it but couldn't stand the seizures from my old card. Future proofed my gpu for like 5 years instead of buying something that would last 2-3
>>711905863
1440p or 4k is a gimmick, 1080@144hz is all you need. Don't talk about things you don't understand.
already 2 years old fugg
my shits pretty old, but i buy new parts when i can, which isn't often since im poor.
>>711906019
fight! fight! fight!
>>711906019
I sit about 3ft away from my 32" monitor. 1080p and 2160p are a worlds difference, at least with text.

Poor fag here...
Anyone got experience with rx 470 8 gig?
I've hit 24 GB with ease without VM, PS, and such due to local hosting. It's also being slated for a Star Citizen box.
Video card is placeholder upgrade from a 270X@2GB until 2017/18.
5Tb drive is hotswap offline backup.
>>711909586
i have 2 friends who have 480's and they always have driver issues. games crashing all the time or with BF1 just not loading at all
i have an msi gtx970 4g and an i7 4770k as cpu, what gpu do you niggers reccommend, looking to upgrade
>>711909420
What ram kit are you using? I've tried a few with a heavy OC on my CPU but none of them want to play nice.
>>711909394 is my build, CPU is sitting at 4.7ghz.
>>711909652

>>711909652
Shame, cant really stretch to a 1060 costs ... got an r9 280 at the moment, bit could do with a boost in 1080p
>>711905909
will a i7 4790k bottleneck from 2 1080s in sli? im getting fps dips in games like the division and shit when i shouldnt be

You could put a new cheap GPU in there and get enormous gains, even with your old CPU.

>>711909394
>>711909420
Lots of six cores around tonight.
>>711909736
My X58 nigga. I had a 5870 originally. Great GPU. My Xeon was $80. It's die shrunk, has two additional cores, and should be compatible with your motherboard (Google it to be sure). Get one and a new GPU in there and you'll be set for any new game, especially DX 12 and Vulkan ones that can take advantage of the 6 cores.
>>711909819

I had to manually set timing/speed/voltage. Xmp causes random blue screens and games to lock up.
>>711910525
>lots of six cores tonight
Gotta render my migus quick.
>>711910573
15'. Hardly big enough, but I suck as much at hardware as I rock at solving compatibility issues.
>>711910468
Theyre sorting that out and if theres any other troubles u can just send it to them and theyll hook you you up with a new one without any issues.
>>711910525
>Nice, but how do you survive on such little storage?
I don't have high storage demanding games, don't download much - it's pretty much a pc for some steam games and college work
>>711910525
yeah, i skimped on the CPU, but i have 4 Xeons here that i want to use to build a fucking monster so im saving up for that build...no sense in upgrading now.
as far as the monitor goes, i wanted something with a higher refresh rate instead of higher pixel count. absolutely love this monitor so no regrets here
waiting for Vega

I know its cheeper and has a faster clock speed but is it really worth the 20 fps drop when compared to an intell chip?

I need some non shitty shaders, this shit is getting like 20fps. My 980 Ti's are maxed out for miku pron. Watdo.
>>711911184
yeah exactly
>>711899410
>980 beats a 1060
Most autistic thing i've ever heard on this site.
>>711899764
That's actually not possible.
You have a faulty sensor.
At 146 your CPU would have melted.
i7's peak at 90-95 C before they throttle.
AMD is well known for throttling at lower temps.
Your PC would have shut down looong before you even reached 100C.
>>711908981
I have an i7 6700K with a Z170 Pro Gaming.
But i'm too scared of OCing it.
>>711914749
stock on that thing is 4.0 i think but you should be able to get 4.7 easy
i got my 6600k from 3.5 up to 4.9 before it became unstable
