    Is Raid 0 worth it for NVMe M.2 SSD?

    I'm about to do it with a pair of 1TB Inland 3.0 x4 (Phison E12) drives for one of my game libraries. Mostly because I prefer larger drives SSD needs a % free and 1TB is ok but semi cramped. I can make use of it though I have a 2950x threadripper with 2 open m.2 slots (I have a 970 evo for the...

    [ H ]: BF5 Raytracing VRAM easily exceeds 6GB

    It goes both ways NVIDIA isn't entitled to their products selling either. A 2GB $450 card by that example just isn't going to sell!

    Question CES 2019 - The beginning of the end for gsync?

    Interestingly I was "thinking" with Nvidia's crazy $$ cards coming out switching to AMD once there was a 1080ti level card just so that I could benefit from my monitor.

    Will we see 500GB Samsung EVO 860 (or a newer version) SATA 2.5" SSD for $60 this BF?

    I've got some 500GB 860 evos for about 70 but those were open box. Not sure on black Friday but there is a supposed 30+% drop coming to SSD drives in the next 3 or so months. Maybe next year I can pull off a $299 1TB 96L 980 PRO :)

    Which cpu/gpu/ram to choose right now ?

    Best is subjective I prefer my 2950x over a 9700k. Even with a 1080ti with all the settings up at either 1440p or 4k the CPU isn't the bottleneck.

    How many cores and threads do you think are too many for a mainstream desktop?

    2/4 even the OS these days lags I'd say 4/8 mainstream with a SSD MINIMUM. No reason when you can get that in a semi "budget" machine now.

    I just realized Windows 7 cannot be installed on a Kaby Lake

    I never even touched the CD. The only CD I've touched in 5 years was the one my wife wanted me to create for music in her car because she doesn't like the Bluetooth phone adapter :D For OEM I use the media creation tool with the newest build (bypass a bunch of updates) straight to USB. For VL...
