Hi All - actually, a long while since I posted here.
BL3 and OW are okay but starting to struggle with performance. It's been a few years since I've posted so I'd appreciate recommendations for a full overhaul to the tune of $1,500 - 2,000 USD.
FYI, I'm thinking Ryzen for CPU and Nvidia for GPU. The thing that really confounds me are these multi-hundred dollar mobos, what's the deal with that?
Here are my current specs:
CPU: Intel i7-3770K @ 4.4 (1.211v @ load; 0.030 offset; Medium LLC)
CPU Cooling: Thermalright TRUE + Scythe SFF21F
Motherboard: ASUS Sabertooth Z77 (BIOS 2104)
Memory: G.SKILL F3-1600C9D-16GXM Ripjaws (2 x 8GB)
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 (+150 core, +400 memory)
PSU: PCP&C 750w
Monitor: Acer GN246HL (1920x1080; LightBoost @ 120Hz)
Storage: Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD (OS), OCZ Vertex 2 120GB SSD, WD Caviar Black 1TB HDD (x2), Seagate FreeAgent 500GB HDD (external)
Sound: Realtek ALC892 (Onboard)
Case: Antec 1200
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64 (Build 1903)
Thanks,
WS-OCT
