Midwest dude here. About a year ago, after 10+ years with Spectrum/Charter/whatever other iterations it went through I switched from cable to 5G as Verizon started offering it in my area. It was good for a while, and generally I like it better than wire due to 'no' downtime. There have been...
Hi All,
First off thanks to everyone for answering questions and helping me put together a gaming rig back in 2023, it runs like a champ! This is what I went with: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hcwvBj
At the time I handed down my previous system to my son, but it's showing its age and...
Hi All,
I recently built a new system including a Dell monitor: https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-32-usb-c-gaming-monitor-g3223d/apd/210-bejf/monitors-monitor-accessories and RTX 4080
It has both DP and HDMI ports. I did some light reading and not sure if it makes a difference which one I...
Hi All,
I'm going to be putting together a new system shortly, generally speaking this:
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hcwvBj
Currently I'm using https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-32gn63t-b-gaming-monitor
32" 1440p 165hz 5ms (GtG at Faster), 1ms MBR, GSYNC
I like it as I was able to snag it...
Checked out this build and I like it, but a few questions/inquiries:
- Why specifically that RAM choice (DDR5-6000) at 1.35v vs. DDR5-5600 at 1.25v or really any of the other similar options? I'm going to be running stock, but just curious on the rationale.
- Is 850watt sufficient? 4080 (320w)...
Yes I played D4 beta. I'm on a 4770k + 1660 Super. It worked, but not great and in any case this is going to be a hand-me-down to my son (his first PC, lucky sob), so daddy is getting a new rig.
Hi all,
I'm looking to build a new PC (box only) in the next month or so in anticipation of D4 release. I'm way out of the loop as I built my current rig back in 2016 and just did some upgrades over time (RAM/GPU/SSD). Answers to the basics:
1. What YOUR PC will be used for.
Gaming
2. What...
Thanks for the insight! As you can tell, my knowledge of current tech is about as old as my current PC. Looks like I'll be waiting until either game has a release date and then plan the build accordingly. Just PoE in the meantime.
So it seems the general consensus is that it's better to just wait until you're ready and then buy the components?
Also my purpose in asking about water cooling is in hopes of a quieter setup. My current setup works fine with a large air cooler (120mm); I just don't know what's a...
Hi All,
I'm going to be building a new PC and retiring my current one as a backup/hand-me-down to my son. I'm specifically going to be building this for the purpose of gaming - Starfield & Diablo 4 (both due out sometime next year). I'm going to be building just the box and in the immediate...
