save me /g/
>>52564887
I've actually started working recently and I'm finally planning on upgrading my rig.
I just don't even know where to start....
>>52564936
Salvage the hdd and throw everything else in the trash and get a new pc.
>>52564952
I know. That's pretty much what I'm going to do. My budget is still pretty limited so I'm probably going to get a GT740 and other mid/low-tier components.
>tfw got 2x2GB DDR2 sticks sitting in a drawer somewhere but the garbage HP mobo won't recognize it so stuck with 4x1GB
>>52564974
Save up until you get around 800€ and buy a good pc that will serve your needs for 5 years at least.
>>52565004
Anon, I'm >>52564887
I played Dragon Age Inq. on 2gb RAM. I play pretty much every new release that I like, unless it requires dx10.
Ayy
>>52565035
It's gonna take a while until I save up that much. My other issue is that I can't order anything online because Amazon adds another 40$ as shipment fee to my country. And, to make matters worse, the biggest seller of computer gear in my country massively overprices EVERYTHING. eg. the EVGA superclocked 740 costs around 90$ on Amazon, bought directly from EVGA, while the local company sells a regular GIGABYTE one for 120€.
Why are my temperatures so high for my graphics card? Probably because --
look ma no fans, but still 130 degrees seems a bit high for idle work.
>>52565203
Forgot picture.
>>52565223
That's Fahrenheit, faggot
It's like 40°C. it's normal
What's the point of this thread?
>>52565315
Nothing.
>>52565267
Actually it's 54 degrees Celsius, and of course that gigantic F there screams Fahrenheit, I just prefer the imperial system over metric because I'm American and it's what makes more sense to me temperature wise.
>>52565223
>970 SLI
Why the fuck
>>52564827
>>52565341
18 degrees C with stock cooling on cpu
>>52565332
Runs every game I throw at it on the highest settings, don't see what the big deal is.
>>52565325
You do realize that the American metric system makes no sense whatsoever, right?
>>52565358
Could have had better performance with a 980ti at the same price. Not to mention less noise and less power consumption.
You still only have 3.5gb of VRAM you chuckle fuck.
Why not get a 980ti?
Why not a 390 Crossfire if you insist on wasting money and don't care about power and heat?
>>52565368
It has more of a scientific value, It makes sense to me because it's what I grew up with it.
>>52565388
AMD isn't power efficient, my 970's are.
970 SLI outperforms a single 980ti in almost every benchmark
http://www.pcgamer.com/nvidia-geforce-gtx-980-ti-review/
Also, the 970 trades blows and the performance is negligible, and I got free games with my 970's.
>>52565388
Okay, I have 3.5 GB's or ram, as I said I run any game I play on ultra, with that being said, it was disappointing, but again I run any game I play at the highest settings, so it apparently doesn't effect me.

>>52565536
Thanks, if that makes you mad, I have another computer in my room that has 270x's in crossfire :D.
>>52565600
the monitor was a gift.
did i do good?
>>52565590
>lol poor people
Says the guy with the poorfag X99 chip. What's the matter buddy, mom wouldn't spring for a 5960X as well? :^)
>>52565612
was it a good D?
>>52565600
>5820k
>not 5930k
The only thing the 5930k has over the 5820k is slightly more cache and pcie lanes.
>>52565623
>not 390x
ayy
>>52565641
>i-it's not really a big deal
cuck
>>52565590
Got more money than you though.

I've got a job, "buddy"

Don't see the point

Unless you're running a four-way SLI with a PCIe SSD on top of that, what's the point?
>>52565753
>not wainting a 4sli
it's okay to be a wagecuck (:
390 now
or wait for pascal/polaris
>>52565983
970

>Suggesting a gimped, weaker card
>Not getting a glorious 390
>>52565983
hold up, i meant 380
>>52565705
The point is better performance, but apparently you can't afford the best. That's a damn shame, anon. I hope your financial situation improves some day soon. :^(
>>52566057
enjoy shitty overheated drivers

I'm sure your FATAL1TY black&red mobo allows you to double your frames per second. :^)
built around a month ago inside a node 304
i smell smoke whenever i use my pc
>>52566507
It translate better to me, Celsius isn't widely used when I was growing up, when I see a value in Celsius I wouldn't understand the value of it being hot, though in recent years I've come to understand it a bit better.

Nope.
Pleasantly surprised by the performance of this shitbox.

I've ran 2 390x's at stock in a mid-tower case with only 2 case fans and temps were still quite low, even when gayming,
