bottlenecks an i7 6700k due to driver overhead. i'd buy the nVidia GTX 1060 for a better gaming experience.

>>55828080
It's pretty good $250. for that price I can't complain 1060 is $330-400 and a 1070 is is $600 which is not bad but I felt like giving AMD a try this generation as I've been having too many issues with Nvidia. so $500 dollars for performance that's close and sometimes exceeding a 1070 seemed like a good deal(When CF is supported) I just hope my house doesn't burn down.

>>55828111
The driver overhead can be bad if you don't have an ok CPU this anon is not wrong up to 20% in some games.

>>55828111
I heard that it's bottlenecking a 5 yo CPU, but not a 6700k.

>>55828207
Are the temps cool ? Are you running a ref card ?
>nvidia issues

Such as ?

>>55826937
>Windows 10 Enterprise

you're a good anon, anon

>>55828245
Yes reference card. The temps are kinda terrible the thermal limit is 90 degrees Celsius which is too high imo but 10 minutes in wattman you can undervolt and keep it in mid 70s without causing any limits that would lower clock speeds.

As for nvidia issues I ran SLI 480 gtx's for a while and they were great no problems but then I decided it was time to use my PC as a PC and not a heater and got a 770 gtx(Some of this could be ASUS's fault to. I'm avoiding them for a while too) and right out of the box everything was artifacting. so I returned that one got a replacement same brand a year later both fans on the card were dead. So I RMAd it got my card back artifacts again sent that one back they sent back a brand new gtx 770 which finally worked for a while, but recently nvidia drivers seem to be getting worse and all the games I have been playing have been crashing (Display driver has recovered from an error message) So when the RX480 came in stock at work I picked one up plugged it in everything is running amazingly compared to before and no more crashing... for now.

Also I know this is purely anecdotal but my 770 did get slower on games like metro 2033 in benchmarks overtime and everything felt worse after a while.

You can't ever completely disable windows 10 telemetry.
Microsoft is actively pushing towards making this ever harder to do as well - see the recent group policy change for example.
Even if you yourself are not concerned about the data collection, you still expose information about your friends and family via Microsoft's aggressive surveillance methods.
You should not use, support or endorse this operating system.

The spyware has been backported to Windows 7 and 8.1 as well.
You can much more easily remove it though - all it takes is uninstalling the related updates.
You can find out which via a quick google search for 'telemetry updates for windows 7 and 8.1', and then hiding them in Windows Update.
Don't forget to check for these every month or so, as Microsoft can push out new updates anytime that can reinstall the spyware.

>>55828111
1060 suffers from driver overhead too. Just not quite as bad.

Protip: Never buy Gigabyte card from AMD. They just Copy paste the same design from GTX without any optimalization. I bet your temperatures are high as fuck, and you rarely (or never) see the Fan #Stop signs lit up.

Kinda cool that we have the same cooler tho.

>>55835819
>They just Copy paste the same design from GTX without any optimalization
You're thinking of Asus. Gigabyte usually do okay with their AMD cards. The 390 is actually an exception though, since it's the only voltage locked card on the market. As an RMA upgrade from a reference 290 though... that's a sweet deal.

>>55835819
Your temps are high because you use 2 monitors, AMD R9 390 takes something like 40-50W idling with 2 monitors on the desktop.

If you disable one of the monitors, it'll probably be fan stop unless you actually try to use it.

>tfw bought 980 simply because it was more available.

>>55835857
Yes, Asus doing almost the same thing. I had the 380, and while it was Okay, the fucking LED on the side annoyed the shit out of me. Altough yes, thats a pretty sweet deal.

>>55835888
It probably, altough my case (NZXT S340) has a really fucking bad airflow. When I take off the side panel,there is 4-7 C° Drop on GPU/CPU.

If I put all 4 fans to 100% I couldn't achive even 2 or 3C°

>>55835950
The cards just use ridiculous amount of power with 2 monitors. For comparison a single monitor puts those cards below 15W. Which is a huge departure from ~50W.

Better airflow would help, but I think you might get better effect if you put one of the monitors on the IGP instead. Assuming you're not using both for gaming or something.

I'd probably been running my 4770 in my dusty ass cramped case for a few months, after a while I decided to see what it was running at during gaming, it was 80-90c finally cleaned it out and then got a mid tower for more airflow. Down to around 65c now with shit Intel fan. Been using it in that itx tower for a few years. Intel ftw.

People seem easily impressed by 5-10+ small hard drives, but ignore the people with 2-4 very dense hard drives.

>>55838200
i think it's funnier to have more smaller drives that occupy every possible sata port (and one pata)

>>55838312
I guess? I personally prefer a larger internal drive to many small drives, especially once you start using external interfaces.

>>55838312
It really isn't. The heat they put out is unreal. It's a lot easier to deal with big drives. They are also faster usually.

everything is pretty old as you can see, got the nas drive almost a year ago, and the video card a month ago. psu is thermaltake TR2 TR-600, case is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129191 with black gaff tape over the left side vent and only the rear exhaust running and not the two top fans (should put a filter on it and see if it runs cooler, blocked it for that reason).

Yea maybe, if you have a setup suitable for that kind of arrangement but I have no airflow. My fans are sub 600 RPM. Plus I have a WD Gold which heats up like a blowtorch.

>>55838614
>if you have a setup suitable for that kind of arrangement
not even a bit. just buy a bunch of fans. i use three F12tc which do miracles with the temp and i have everything packed up tightly

>>55838729
I have no room for fans even if I wanted to mount some, which I don't because that'd bring noise up. My case is extremely cramped with the hardware in there. (Alpenföhn K2 cooler in a microATX case)

My Optiplex 7010 is a pretty good quality case.

>>55839246
I'm playing Arma 3 quite a lot and that game is so CPU heavy that anything below 4.0ghz is causing quite crappy performance.

But I want to wait for some time and then swap that new-entry motherboard for some 1151 Z170 and 4570 for 6700k (+the new RAM sticks ofcourse).

>>55839350
Honestly that's barely an upgrade for stock single core performance, you'd only really see it from overclocking, which would be still fairly minimal gains overall.

But hey its your money.

>>55839367
Some decent overclocking will definitely be a thing (already have a solid CPU cooler). But as I said, I will wait, mostly for my head to cool down. I've got plenty of extra money from a traffic accident I had a year ago and since money won't heal me, I can spend it on something that I like and enjoy. And it won't be that much of an impact to the overall budget.

>>55839208
>Well it hasn't been updated since december
That was barely an update either. They were forced into it because it was causing BSODs on Windows 10 and Microsoft started automatically removing it from people's machines during the November update. Most of what they did was just fixing that. It hasn't had a large update since January 2015. Guess it doesn't make them enough money to give a shit about it.

Are my temperatures good? My 970 runs at like 75-80C when I'm playing GTA V, isn't it too hot? I made a custom fan curve on msi afterburner but the coolers get too loud.

>>55839702
My old GTX760 was always running at 80C in a games such as GTA V. Are these your idle temps? The GPU is a bit higher, does it have fanstop?

>>55839792
Yes, those are idle temps. By default the coolers only start running at like 60C or something.

>>55835819
and we have the same CPU cooler.
but nah unless i'm on video playback rendering or gaymen its ALWAYS on stop, this is with a 4k moniter with a 720p it didnt turn fans on even with HDready video playback on.
but temps get up to 85 degrees on full load furmark and 79 ingame so yeah toasty

>>55839834
Then it should be alright although it's still a bit higher (usually these idle temps with fanstop are below 40). You can set the curve to keep the fans running at the lowest speed possible, they should be barely audible.

>>55839918
I think they're higher because I overclocked my GPU, if I put my fans to 20% they're really silent. I don't really like that fanstop

>>55839962
Yeah, overclock explains it. I don't like fanstop either. It makes me kinda nervous. Also my ZOTAC GTX1070 Amp Extreme tends to keep turning fans on and off when the temperature fluctuates around the on/off threshold. It sounds like if the computer is breathing. So I have it running on 30% all the time.

new graphics card this weekend after my 780 died.

poor fag here.
currently have an asrock h61 + pentium G1610 and a 260x

before you ask, i use this for (word/excel/powerpoint) related tasks office and some light gaming (dota2 at mid settings). i've been thinking in turning this rig into an emulator(ps2/gamecube/wii) + media center for the living room.

do you recommend getting an used i7 3770 (for about 150$) or w8 until zen (and hope it is not another amd blooper) and do a full upgrade ?

i can spare about 300$-400$ in total.
