So I´m here cause I got a question about gaming performances.

Stick a few slices of bread in there, it's toast time.

Redo your thermal paste. Your CPU should not be above 100C. I bet that will fix your fps issues.

>>732546024
100c isn't even possible.

Agreed. Best you can do for that poor PC is redo your thermal paste , and prob get a better heatsink. Try a container water cooler. A CPU should never be that high temp. Especially idle...

Ffs. What's wrong with you op?

>>732545804
You self built a computer... And chose Amd, Radeon and Seagate over more, well... common parts like Intel, GeForce and WD... Yet don't know the CPU is frying itself (probably due to poor installation) and further don't know you need a better Graphics card for... Better Graphics.

This be bait right?

>>732546252
I just closed the game. It's normally like fucking 100 degrees to a maximum of 140.
Normally it's on 70 degrees idle.

>>732546293
Wasn't really asking for graphics. Just performance. frame rate increase.

>>732546346
Dude. You shouldn't be accepting and higher then 80 even at 100% usage imo.

Bet your computer sounds like an airplane taking off?

Try water cooling. It'll change your world.

>>732546088
You're incorrect.

I was working on a laptop with a bad fan with an Intel processor. Got up to ~105C.

>>732546293
You're baiting.

AMD is fine for budgets. "GeForce" is overpriced and R9 200 series can easily handle the games he mentioned. But you're right, Seagate is shit.

>>732546530
You win.
I really don't know how to reply to this.
You couldn't possibly have 'self built' a computer full of more... lets say 'enthusiast' parts without knowing that Gaming performance is 99% Graphics card. (So long as the rest of the machine is basically compatible with it {Pcie 3.0 etc})

Is that a 290? You want more ram and a cooler cpu like everyone said.

>>732546941
I really tried not to start an amd vs intel thing... So i chose the word 'enthusiast' here>>732546969 to suggest... well there not as generic and generally require more knowledge about pc's to build an amd rig.

You're right in what you say tho, especially the Seagate is a steaming pile of shit part.

Wtf are you doing with that much ram?

>>732545804
Overheating is your biggest concern. Performance is impacted by heat, and AMD is known to run HOT. If replacing your cpu with a cheap intel is out of the question then get a new heatsink for your cpu.
I'm willing to bet you're running stock and have never cleaned it.

the fuck you need 64gb of RAM for?

>>732547506
I have a lot of tabs open in Firefox

For some reason people are telling you to get more ram. You don't need more ram.

Just went on Steam and saw some really bad news...

The game Alan Wake is gonna be removed from Steam soon, because the publisher didn't renew the rights for some songs in the game, so they won't be able to sell it anymore. You can still keep the game if you already have it, but it won't be sold in the future.

I'm currently away from home, and can't connect to Steam to purchase the game. I really liked the old Remedy games (Max Payne 1 and 2) and always wanted to try Alan Wake, but never bought it when it was on sale. This is the last opportunity to get it, before it gets removed from the Steam store or any other market.

I'd buy it myself if I was at home, but I'm away for a few more months still. I know that begging is bad, but I have no other choice than to ask someone to gift it to me. I know you guys spend a lot of money on skins in games, so I was wondering if anyone could skip on one item, and purchase me the game, that will give me hours of fun and enjoyment.

The game is on sale right now, before it gets removed. It's not 25% off, nor 50%, nor 75%... but 90% off! The game is literally reduced to 2.99$, which is the price of a chewing gum pack. I'm away and can't access Steam to buy it... even at that price.

Can anyone help me out?

Just hit me up on this temporary email, and I'll give you my Steam profile link.

[email protected]

P.S: I'm really away from home, and you'll see that my account was last active around 200-300 days ago.

Would have made more sense if you had said Chrome, as that's already a running joke.

>>732547506
I'm not op but I have 32gb of DDR4 ram that I use for a nice replay buffer using OBS.

Other replay buffers (like ShadowPlay) save the buffer in your hard drive which can wreck your SSDs with constant writes. OBS uses your ram and only writes to your drive when you save.

>>732547615
I have a lot of tabs open in Chrome

Not much more that can be said. If you're running 1080p your processor is doing the brunt of the work. And it will drop frames at those temps.

Redo your thermal paste and drop a few bucks on a good aftermarket cooler. Sorry but I don't use AMD so I don't have any recommendations. I suggest checking Amazon, PCpartpicker, or Newegg for highly rated ones.

>>732547644
Yes he does, 32 is the minimum today really

>>732547687
Fuck you. You can buy it on the device you wrote this message from.

>>732547799
Have you tried opening multiple tabs on Firefox? It starts lagging much faster than Chrome, and Chrome is already a resource hog.

at once, you only use 14.5 gigs of Ram.
So the only thing where you should go for more than 20gigs of ram is when you usually browse with 40Tabs of Google Chrome.

Speccy temps have been pretty consistent with CPUID and Speedfan for me. Are you sure you don't just have poor air flow? Or maybe the your mobo's heat sensor is the problem.

For 1080p your graphics card is acceptable. At least at medium settings.

You want a newer CPU (which means new board and RAM), although 8GB is still fine if you get the new memory standard.

An SSD in certain games may help a lot as well.

I'm guessing he built his rig around 5 years ago. The guy probably hasn't cleaned his heatsink in all that time which is probably why he's overheating so bad.
This was also around $1000

I recommend poking some holes in the outer skin with forks. Wrap it in tinfoil and place in the oven at 220 degrees Celsius for 80 minutes.

Should be nice and fluffy on the insides and ready for eating at that point.

This, 16+ is nice for dedicating 4-8gb to a virtual os while still having enough to play with. 32gb is still overkill for end users.

>107C
OP... that better fucking not be your idle temp.

You desperately need at least a heatsink which I'm assuming you don't have based on that temp. If you can get yourself a radiator (water cooling) system for it. If your case has shit airflow on top of that lack of cpu cooling you need to a better case with some good fan placement to get rid of additional heat. A cool PC is a much happier PC. The secret about PCs is they usually don't like having any of their components hot enough to cook a fucking hot dog on.

>everyone else windows 10 now
Is it actually good now or is it just because lolfreeupdatelol?

>>732545804
798mhz RAM? HAHAHAHA WHERE DO YOU EVEN GET IT THAT LOW

>>732550629
Speccy is notorious for misrepresenting ram speed, for various reasons. This your first tech thread?

>>732550183
Security concerns are why I updated to Win10. Did you not hear about the recent NSA tools being leaked? Anything below Win10 was vulnerable.
This wasn't an "upgrade to Win10" ploy btw. The NSA is completely at fault for not disclosing the exploits to Microsoft.

>>732550771
On /b/, sure. I don't often see cucks who have gaming PC's but don't know how to fix a 100°C CPU.

I've never seen speccy misread ram speeds, and I've seen a ton of speccy screens.

>>732550851
They rolled updates for that all the way back to win 2003. 7 is safe.

>>732550183
the only fags i know who won't upgrade to 10 are:
A) dipshits who don't know how to disable the tracking bullshit.
B) dipshits who are so stuck in the past they use winxp.
C) They're legitimately mentally disabled.
D) "buh, buh, but i don't like the start menu!"

This is a DDR4 ASRock Fatal1ty MoBo running G.Skill Ripjaw's @ 2133. (2133 being the base clock for ddr4, going up from there)
There is a reason this happens, i forget why. It's just a 'given' now.

>>732551056
Not the point. When an OS stops being supported, it stops being updated which just makes it a matter of time before an other exploit is found.

>>732551230
When does support for Windows 7 end?

Microsoft ended mainstream support for Windows 7 on January 13, 2015, but extended support won’t end until January 14, 2020.

This applies as long as you have Service Pack 1 installed. If you haven’t installed Service Pack 1 already, you should do it now

>>732550851
Fun shit. Heard about that leak but everyone was flipping shit about mobile as if it was the end of the anal probe free world. Well as soon as I can get my next set of upgrades rolling 10 is part of that package.

>>732551084
It got bitchy about the small primary SSD when I tried and I ended up missing out on the freebie period. When I can one of the first things I'm doing is a much bigger SSD primary and throwing 10 on it. Only reason I'm not doing it now is I've got guns and bulk ammo purchases to pay off and a car to fix.

>>732551373
Ah, I was not aware of the extended support. I upgraded around 2015 and never looked back.

>>732551183
Why not get a 6500K instead for like $10-$20 more and have much better performance due to overclocking?

I'd rather spend my limited budget on the GPU (Bought the 960 due to the 10 series launch was within weeks, and honestly the 960 still handles high-ultra at 1080p so i got lazy)

>>732545804
You should of gotten a better cpu. Those are apu's and they aren't horrible but I think a fx4300 would of done a much better job for about same price. You can't switch now though cause of the motherboard. You could upgrade to a10 7870k(~$90). Then eventually save for the R9 nano or an Nvidia 1080

>>732550629
It's DDR, faggot. Meaning 1600Mhz.

>>732555803
A 1080ti can run "some" games at 4k, 144hz. Most of the newer games (3 years or so), it can't. However I have two 1080ti's so I should be able to do it with most games.

>>732545804
>decent $800 computer

Pick one.

>>732555803
The problem with 144Hz isn't really GPU, it's the CPU. Games aren't designed to be ran at 144Hz, so in many (new) games even if you have GPU power to spare, you'll just run into a CPU bottleneck.

Yeah most games can *some probably won't really put out 144hz though like emulators or maybe old old games), but you're pointing out a outlier like skyrim. I'm talking about in terms of compatibility, like if the 1080ti has displayport 1.3 on it; also for CPU bound games like the source engine of course, but that's only becasue the games are CPU bound, so then you gotta get a good CPU to handle that shit. Sadly though, a game like gmod (it's just an example) literally choke holds my cpu despite being a i7-6700k, I can make it drop to 10fps by simply spamming particles or looking at the entirety of a large map

Redo thermal paste, keep the case on a place with airflow, clean fans or get better ones, dust everything

You need new Thermal paste. Even a horribly dirty heatsink isn't going to get you those temps, but bad Thermal paste will.

Thermal paste is thermal paste. The grading really only differs by a degree or two.
