PC Gaming Sucks

[felang]

It is even possible to SLI 750 ti´s?

 

[96Firebird]

The reason why you are getting bad performance with SLI 750 Tis is because... they don't SLI.

No.

1300W PSU: I got this PC with the intentions of upgrading it in the future
3000$: it was an example, mine costed less
2x 750ti: I was planning on upgrading when they would strain (especially for the GTA V release)
Water cooling: upgrading (again)

So you see I set off thinking I'd be gaming on PC for many years to come and based my whole plan on upgrading in the future but now that I know how PC gaming is I don't think anymore money will go into it

I didn't mention $3000, I didn't because I know the cost of your parts already so I know it's not $3000. I'm an enthusiast I'm not stupid.

2x GTX 750 Ti:
http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2014/02/18/nvidia-geforce-gtx-750-ti-review/3
"The reference PCB for the GTX 750 Ti is the same as that of the GTX 650. This should come as little surprise since the GM107 GPU is the architectural upgrade to the GK107 GPU of the GTX 650, though it does mean that the GTX 750 Ti lacks an SLI connector. SLI is not supported with this card."
I asked for a specific model for a reason. Are you SURE you have SLI working? Because by all accounts it's not supported on the GTX 750 Ti that I can find.
Not to mention again, you would have been better suited with 1 single GTX 970, R9 290x, etc. which would have been cheaper, and faster. You're running into a VRAM issue because the GTX 750 Ti is a 2GB VRAM card and you're trying to most likely set settings that are surpassing this 2GB VRAM limit. Hence why you should have gotten a real card (and no getting 2 of them doesn't mean you get 4GB of VRAM for gaming, it's mirrored and again like I said, GTX 750 Ti SLI isn't supposed to work unless you have some special card I don't know of).

1300 W PSU
You're not really listening to what I'm trying to put down. Unless you're planning on purchasing $2500 in GPU's alone you aren't going to utilize this 1300 W PSU.
Also, new GPU's will be low power, so 1300 W PSU was utterly useless purchase.

He's not SLI'ing with them. He's "skiing" with them.

Gtx 750Ti dual ski

He'd probably get better performance if they weren't strapped to his feet!

 

[tabulate jaeger]

You had no plan, I'm not even convinced you actually have a PC. Even computer challenged people have more sense than you've shown so far.

First post PC hate thread....I mean really.

Your brain: "I don't know how to defend PC against what he says because I can't. What should I do mmm... Errr... Uhhh SAY HE'S LYING"

I do own a PC, I have chosen these specs with the idea of upgradeability since I'm not a sheikh, I have built computers for friends and family before (I built a gaming PC for my cousin which gave me the idea to get one for myself)

It's the first post on this subject yes, and I feel it's necessary, too often people say the only downside to PC is the price and I felt I should truly expose it for what it is, an utter buggy and hair ripping experience.

 

[sweenish]

Those GPU's were strained before you ever bought them.

Just suck it up, admit you are the one at fault, and move on.

Also, Xbox has Forza, not Gran Turismo.

This is either a massive troll, are you are literally that dense.

I also like your reasoning in this last post.

but now that I know how PC gaming is

That's been your problem this whole time. YOU DON'T KNOW HOW IT IS. The experience to be had gaming on PC can be fantastic. But it takes a heck lot more knowledge than console gaming. If you don't want to put the time in, that's your choice.

But you, coming in here spouting out against PC gaming when it's beyond obvious that your poor performance is solely due to the poor choices you made is laughable. If the PC specs are mismatched so poorly, it's likely crashing all the time because you screwed up building it as well.

Do games ship broke? Yes, they do. Is it the same on the current gen consoles. Yep. We're not going to tell you it's not your fault because your issues are solely your fault and not that of "PC gaming."

It's not for everyone. I'm fine with that. But don't shift your ignorance over to the platform.

Lol you got me yes I was trolling, hope I haven't pissed anyone off, I have a PC (not the specs I mentioned before) and I'm loving it though I did have some bugs with skyrim (skyrim only so far)

Lame, I really hoped you had SLI GTX 750 TI. I love seeing people make stupid mistakes.
Darn...

No my brain is saying you're lying because you are either completely clueless or you are trolling. I don't need to defend PC gaming...and the fact you would think anyone needs to just further proves my point.

No one denies PC gaming can have it's headaches, but just based on what you started with and your PC specs it quickly devolved into someone who clearly has nothing to back up what he's saying other than completely oblivious or intentionally trying to upset people. I'm going with the latter.

The reason he's getting bad performance is because he just completely made up a computer to lend "credibility" to his subsequent tantrum. Sure, you could point out that he is apparently running SLI on a card that doesn't support it, but there was an even bigger clue: no one lists "thermal paste" in their PC specs if they have even the slightest clue what they're doing. You might as well list SATA cables and motherboard standoff screws. Come to think of it, he didn't mention a case; maybe his poor performance is because he threw all those components on the floor and started screaming "PLAY GAMES NOW" at them.

LMAO glad I wasn't the only one. The SLI thing I wouldn't have even known because...well I have never looked into a 750

I'm down with a ban. Starting off in a community by being like this will never get anywhere.

I have a GTX750Ti myself in a spare/guest PC, it plays games just great once you adjust the game graphics, but if you're a serious gamer you're much better off with a $300+ card like the R9 290 3GB or GTX970 4GB. This whole thread got bad the minute that horrible PC specs was listed.

And there's no SLI on 750/750Ti.

 

[ImpulsE69]

I mean as a member of the PC master race anything below a Titan is beneath me.

You're right anything that entertains a user or provides them with humor is downright atrocious. Anyone who tries to have a bit of fun should be hanged for wasting the precious key strokes of others DISGRACEFUL!

 

[sweenish]

And yet you continue to troll.

You are providing humor to yourself at the expense of the community, and I doubt anyone else is entertained by your idiocy. You're saying you shouldn't be banned because you think you're a funny guy and cracking yourself up. Solid logic.

Get a hobby.

Edit - Not PC gaming.

I am going to call out this as troll thread. You cannot SLI 750s...either you bought and installed both 'thinking' SLI would auto-magically work (ignorance) or you just made-up this whole thread with fairy parts (outright lie).

We all have to start somewhere and learn, but with your lack of any understanding and unwillingness to listen, this smacks of a troll thread.

I am done reading or posting here...

Depends on the forum. You're allowed to post this type of trolling on some forums. Generally, hardware dedicated forums don't accept this though.

@OP

I'm really glad you came here to post your frustration. I will immediately sell my computer and buy a TV and a Xbox.

Did I say I thought I was funny????.... Nope I said I found this entertaining.

Idiocy: where did I show idiocy in it's official form (not the iform where anything is idiotic even when it is not) Idiot, noun, informal. A foolish or senseless person.

Now please tell me what have I done that was foolish? I hadn't brazenly dove into this, I knew what I was going to do and what I was doing, I knew what the reactions could be, all forseen. I do not see any consequences that have endangered me or others. Idiotic? No.

'At the expense of the community' oh har har may we be saved from this terrible thing by a force above our own. He is using us at our expense! Look here, friend, what I have done was at the expense of a few keystrokes and no more than a few minutes which I'm sure you can make up for unless you know you'll die within the hour. You could have clicked away to some other part of the internet but chose to stay so you can only blame yourself for that wasted time.
