Pls tell me how I can improve. This is my first build and I recently upgraded my GPU from a GTX 960 2GB.

Otherwise, your specs are perfectly fine.

Initially when I did this upgrade (Nehalem 920 to Skylake) I was holding off on new GPU (it was just before the time 1070/80 was to be released). But now months later I've realized I basically never game (and the ones I do play are old games) or do any heavy GPU loads, so I don't think I'll bother, the 960 is working fine for me.

Why would you buy AMD now when Zen is coming out? Should have waited for next year or bought Intel.
Kingston SSDs are pretty bad compared to the competition.

Still running everything at max settings and hitting dat 100fps.

Is the extra $100 for the i7 6700k's hyperthreading make it worth it over the i5 6600k? I generally go a fairly long time between upgrades, around 5-7 years, so additional "future-proofing" benefit would be significant, but I'm unsure.

I kid, I kid... But in all seriousness, I see no reason to upgrade. It works just fine. Not like a new computer will be faster than this. My shitposting will be at the same rate regardless. The only thing it can't do is play 4K. However, this MIGHT be solved with something like MPV if configured properly, but I don't even have a 4K monitor, so it's not THAT big of a deal. It'll just look sharper, and 1080p is fine. You can tell by my GTX 460 that I don't play video games so that doesn't matter to me. Although the 460 isn't as weak as people believe.

4K is the only reason I'd upgrade, but as of right now, it's not that appealing to me.

Y'all can't touch my Precision 3510

Neither can speccy though apparently. It's an i7 6820HQ, not a 6100H ???

Doesnt seem to recognize my RAM as DDR4 either.

GPU is reported incorrectly too, its a Firepro W5130M, im guessing the Radeon R9 M360 is the gamer skew of this chip.

Doesnt look like its properly figured out my NVME drive either.

What the fuck speccy ?

>>57933343
Nothing to improve really, that's going to be a solid setup for quite some time. Only thing I could recommend is another larger SSD if you have the space but it's not necessary.

Fiddling with RAM timings under XMP for maximum shitposting capability.

Here's my current setup.

Yes the SSD is small (its old), same with the 500gb HDD that's from the initial build years and years ago as well.

I like my 8350 but I'm thinking about upgrading that and video card. Perhaps a dual Xeon system and one of the new AMD or Nvidia GPUs? I also plan on getting more ram either way.

What would you upgrade?

>>57952641
I miss my M4, died on me yesterday.

Don't bother with dual CPU meme unless you're into scientific computing. If you want balance a 5820K or 6800K is the way to go, plus you benefit from the M.2 port and a few extra pcie 3.0 lanes compared to the mainstream i7s (28 vs 20).

>>57952700
Meant 28 vs. 16.

>>57952700
I mix audio for people,not really a gamer (the 770 was a gift). Wouldn't the Dual Xeons be good for DAWs and such like Reaper and Harrison Mixbus, they both take advantage of multiple cores, or would the i7 still be a better choice for the higher clock speed? I notice my 8350 having some trouble opening a 40+ track project takes several minutes sometimes.

>>57933839
Same here, 5820k and GTX 960. I don't particularly game much, maybe skyrim or CSGO occasionally and both of those don't require massive GPU power to run at 60fps.

>>57952775
I think even then having a stronger overall system would be more important. If you went dual xeon then it's likely that you'd be going with SB-E at this point (anything else is super expensive compared to lower end workstation i7s) and that would mean you can't have an nvme pcie SSD, which really does make the system boot and load shit really quickly.

And multi-CPU support can be a bit iffy with a lot of programs. Having a balance between frequency and core count is the optimal solution. 10 slow cores is generally going to be worse or the same as 6 faster cores (given the same architecture) for the same task.

>>57952843
Ok thanks, I'll keep that in mind, also good to know then I wont have to buy from some sketchy guy on ebay to get the CPU. What's a good GPU to combo with that? I'm not super into gaming but I enjoy it when I've got some time. I plan on giving my system to my younger brother since he's still using a 965BE.

>>57952885
GTX 1060 or r9-480 for 1080p gaming. Gtx 1050 or r9 470 if you don't think you'll be gaming much

>>57952924
Awesome I'll have a look thanks.

>>57952843
>mean you can't have an nvme pcie SSD, which really does make the system boot and load shit really quickly.
As the owner of a 950 pro I really hate seeing this. NVMe PCI/M.2 SSDs actually make the boot process take slightly longer than a decently quick SATA SSD. This is because your BIOS POST procedure is extended when you are booting from a PCI/M.2 connection. This is all before you're even loading your OS so the read speed of the SSD does nothing to speed this up.

Once this is finished then your OS loads up like normal and at that point it IS significantly faster than a SATA SSD. But if you don't do anything that uses the extra speed you most likely won't even notice it.

Been using my 950 pro daily for 8+ months and switching to an 850 Pro SATA drive feels identical for normal desktop use compared to the 950 pro. And the boot up is ~5-10 seconds faster.

>>57952994
Sorry for rustling your jimmies I guess.

>>57953156
Meh just a common misconception I see repeated often. I doubt you were aware of this when you made your comment so I just wanted to provide some clarification.

While nvme m.2 SSDs are much faster than a SATA SSD, the actual boot process is a bit longer.

Just upgraded to this from an Athlon X4 860K and Gigabyte F2A88XM-D3H, and holy crap, what an improvement. Gonna upgrade my GPU soon, but it's holding up surprisingly well for casual gaming like Overwatch on High settings (the Athlon somehow was managing to bottleneck the GPU) at around 90-120 FPS.

Just got it up and working but I'll be re-doing the entire thing when christmas money rolls in.

Right now all of this is sitting in a MasterCase5 but soon it'll be replaced with a 6700k, MSI 1080 (or a couple cheaper cards in SLI), a 250gb SSD boot, 4x4GB RAM and a 650w Gold PS.
