Hello! I'm currently using: AMD FX-6350 @ 4.0 Ghz. Radeon HD 7850 2Gb. 8GB 1333Mhz DDR3 RAM. 2 x 1TB HDD. 1080p Monitor. I was thinking to upgrade CPU, Mobo and RAM only and wait for the next gen GPUs since they are not that far away, my 7850 can still live through those months (and I can use...

Currently using a GTX 1080TI, but want to make sure the rest of my computer is up to date! Processor is a Intel core I7 4790k and my motherboard is MSI Z97 GAMING 5. About to get myself a HTC Vive so want to make sure nothing will be bottle necked. Any suggestions? Thanks guys!

Hello Ladies and Gents, I'm looking to upgrade my older system to something more current so that I can play "PUBG". I currently get on CSGO right now but some friends are pulling me into this game. I can run PUBG but its on very low settings and its terrible. Since I already spent the $30 on...

So I had an older computer running windows 7. I recently decided to buy a bunch of new parts (motherboard, cpu, gpu, power supply) so I could game better. However, understandably, after I upgraded, my OS didn't come with my computer. I had to load a version of Windows 7 on USB just to run my...

Hello all, I just joined the forum as a member and look forward to contributing. I currently have a Dell T5500 workstation with dual X5690 (3.46GHz) and 72GB of RAM (DDR3) (~1575 cb) that I use for the following tasks: - scientific computing (parallel c++, python with MPI) - finite element...

Looking to upgrade my current 2012 PC hardware. My OC on the computer burnt out pins on the CPU (still works though!), but I cannot OC anymore. Basically, my 3570K is a 3570; multiplier tops out to 38 in BIOS, but never goes above 3.6 GHz anyways. Looking for general recommendations for the...

Hi All! So I recently upgraded my rig from 16GB DDR4 (2x8GB) to 32GB DDR4 (4x8GB). I am using Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR4 ram which OC's to 3000 Mhz. My motherboard is the ASUS Prime Z720-A. When I had the original setup of 16GB, just two sticks of 8GB each, I could use XMP on my...

I use my PC for some AAA gaming + streaming and gaming Overwatch on the same PC. About 50/50 for purely gaming vs streaming. Current Specs: CPU Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor Motherboard MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition ATX LGA1150 Motherboard Memory Corsair XMS3 16GB (2 x 8GB)...

Hi all: First time posting. I have a fairly old computer (setup is described below). I have a socket LGA1155 motherboard, so can't really move up on the CPU side, but I figured that I might be able to upgrade my graphics card from the GTX 650 Ti to a newer generation one for cheap (or free)...

So I have been pretty happy with a fresh install of Windows 10. Now the upgrade, that's a whole other story. With my desktop, it came when I tried to install Sling. It wouldn't install no matter what compatibility mode I chose, yet on a VM running Windows 10, no problems at all. Fast forward 6...

Hello. I've been a member here for 5 years and, in short, have been waiting several months for BF to upgrade my MOBO/GPU/CPU and would like some advice for the best deals/compatibility. Also, if you would recommend replacement of other parts (i.e. RAM) I'm all ears, as I'm not sure how long...

After months of getting our admin staff to abandon their office server, a tired Dell PE 2900, I was finally able to pull the plug on the old dinosaur machine that it was. The server is still in decent condition so I got the idea of reconditioning the tower as a workstation with a couple Xeons...
