I need help in deciding between 2 laptops. I live in the UK, & I'm in the market for the new RTX 3070 laptops from Asus. As I want 17 inch laptops only, my options are the ROG Strix G17 (manufacturer code G713QR-HG021T) & the ROG Strix Scar (manufacturer code G733QR-HG001T).
I am attaching...
I did some digging online and found that MSI has a model with newer 10th Gen CPU, 2070 super GPU, though 512gb nvme SSD with 1tb sata. But it's £2200. Is this worth it? I can get the Asus for £1650, with same config except the 2060 GPU instead of 2070 super. And I read online that MSI is very...
Hello guys. I am looking to buy a gaming laptop & my budget is between £1200-£1800. I have (or had) an old samsung laptop with NVidia 650 GPU & I was using it till I could afford a top end laptop, but it is causing a lot of problems & I think its time for me to consider getting a new one right...
Hi everyone. I wanted to buy a new gaming laptop and needed some advice. I did search online but I felt that most websites which listed the best gaming laptops were paid to advertise 1 laptop over the other, and also different websites said different models were the best. So I thought I'd ask on...
The board only supports 1066/1333 (according to the specs sheet)
Here's a link to it: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/50098/intel-desktop-board-dh67bl.html
Its an ancient board, and probably not an enthusiast board (I honestly don't know what an enthusiast's board is). So, even if I can't change memory settings manually (which I don't know how to), its ok right? It will work? Can I get the 1866 Mhz one or better stick to 1600MHz one?
Hello everyone! I mainly use my PC for gaming and I have 8 GB RAM (2x4 GB DDR3 1600MHz Corsair XMS 3). Games like Just Cause 3 need more RAM and loads slowly due to lack of it. Thus I wanted to upgrade my RAM from current 8 GB to 16 GB.
On Amazon, 2x4 GB 1600MHz RAM (Corsair XMS 3) costs...
Hello everyone.
I have been having lousy wifi connectivity with my last 2 routers (1 to 2 bars just 1 to 2 meters away!) I have used the following routers in the past:
Netgear WNR614 N300 Wi-Fi Router
TP-LINK TL-WR940N Wireless-N450 Home Router
TP-Link TL-WR841N 300Mbps Wireless-N Router...
Thanks for the info. I did as you said. Bought a 500GB Samsung EVO 850. Created 2 partitions. 80 GB for Windows, 350GB for games. Filled the game drive with games (I've installed steam there & will be installing all steam games in one place). I've only 30 GB left there now. The system seems is...
Thanks for the info. I'm thinking of buying the Samsung Evo 850. There are 3 options: the 250GB, 500GB & 1 TB SSDs. Which would you suggest? Is it enough to just install Windows to the HDD & the games on the old SATA? Or do I have to install the games on SSD as well? If the latter is true, 250...
Thank you. Could you direct me to a few of these? I'm seeing SSD 1,2,3 etc and even SSHD (SSD hybrids?). What's the difference between them, which one should I buy? Are all SSDs SATA or is there a non-SATA SSD as well?
Good to know. So 3 out of 4 slots is out. Thanks.
I am confused by that, yes. I did a bit of reading online, and I found out that 1.5v is a better option. I bought the RAM a long time ago, and I guess I didn't know about the voltages then. I just found this RAM in the shop & I knew Corsair was...
Hi! A few months ago I had requested help on deciding a new GPU, and I was guided well by the community here. I just bought a 1080 Ti (EVGA FTW3). But I have an ancient system, and have a few questions regarding it.
First off, here's my current setup:
MoBo: Intel DH67BL
Processor: Intel i5...
Thank you so much for your help, Smogzinn. You answered a lot of my queries. I can happily get that card now, and I have a general idea on what's to be my next upgrade. Cheers!
