Here's a speecy, built in October, upgraded to a 1080 after the price drop. Games are losing their magic, so feels meh.

>>377519094
How do you route the VGA cables on the EVGA PSU's? I just got a EVGA 1070 with 2x8 pin and I can't find a way to put the 2 6pin cables out of the way of the GPU.

I like simple designs

>>377519112
That's the case I would of bought if I hadn't discovered NZXT. Now I'm loyal to them till the end. They're stylish, come with pretty nice case fans, offer plenty of room for even the beefiest GPU's, and they're moderately priced.

>>377519418
Funny, I had a 1080ti and a 4k monitor for like a month. Then I was like "fuck it, this sucks" so I sold both of 'em. I'll sell you this rig for a grand.

Do you have 2 480's with crossfire disabled?

>>377519330
Wat

>>377519409
6 years and absolutely no regrets, right now I might consider a Fractal Design or a silent Corsair Carbide case, but not necessarily looking to make a new build any time soon.

>>377519651
I assume he was calling out the i5.

>>377519616
Would gladly if I hadn't just built most of mine, just looking on a good sale for some more parts. That's a good steal for $1k.

>>377519586
Alot of research went into what mobo I should buy. I had a really tough choice deciding. But this has been great to me, very little bloatware, and it has a simple BIOS

>>377519708
I'm enjoying my S340 because it's easy to access the PCIE/Fans and MOBO and clean stuff, but the PSU basement is a tangled fucking mess no matter what I do because I'm running 2 2.5" drives, making the SATA cords and power a mess.

I built my first (and current) PC almost 6 years ago. The only think i changed was the 660ti for a 1070 last yesr.

I5 2500k is a miracle worker.

They'll happen, you're sol if you're trying to buy ram though. Hell at 79.99 for my 16gb of 3200 ddr4 I though I was getting ripped off. How times have changed.

>>377520457
So? Before I built my desktop I was using a dual-core i5 laptop with 2x4GB ram and had slowdown on PPSSPP

Even a fucking desktop Pentium is stronger than that

>>377519638

Is not disabled, It uses crossfire in some games

A lot of games run like shit on crossfire

>>377520457
Well why not? You can get a 970 for dirt cheap now a days. It's pretty good for 1080p/60fps

Just get a cheap used one for under 100 or so, you could at least play older 3D games then

>>377521117
no, it was my fault. I know it happened sometime when scerewing everything down or setting up my PC but I'm not sure exactly when. I'm probably gonna get another at some point

>>377521001
I truly hope this is sarcasm. I only shoot for 1080p/60fps and every triple A title since I've bought this thing can be maxed out. So it does what I want it to do.

That's surprising, those metal frames are usually pretty hard to bend, and it's not like the SSD is that heavy.

It's plastic, and yeah, it's really really small and at first I thought I wouldn't care that much, but after some time, it started bugging me everytime I looked through the panel

>>377520596
Personally, I think that the 480 is a great value/perf card. As for CF/SLI, with DX12 and Vulkan and mGPU becoming more common, we are seeing a lot more games adopting it and that number is going to increase in the foreseeable future. We are seeing a lot of games actually taking advantage of that nowadays and the GPU scaling is yielding fantastic and unprecedented results nowadays.

Now, I hate being an advocate of AMD Just Wait™ technology, but it does look to me like it's got potential that's just starting to get utilized. It does require more effort from developers, though.

It was part of a combo sale, back when Scan.co.uk used to a lot of pretty good sales.

I'm on the edge about whether I should build a new system with the Fractal Design Define Mini C, or just wait another year.

How's the rx 470/i3 6100 ?

>>377525768
Get a G4560 Pentium if you have to go low-end. The latest ones are basically as strong as the i3 and have hyperthreading for like $60.

Barely anything changed in the past 4 years.

- i5 4690
Not much to say. It's the non-K, since I don't care much about overclocking and don't need it.

- 8GB DDR3 RAM
Too lazy to look up clock and CL

- A nearly decade old Thermaltake

- 3.5GB VRAM cripple
I can't wait to replace it with a Vega card FUCKING ASAP, but AMD keeps everybody waiting.


My monitor is a GW2460HM, which I'm really happy with. However, with the new graphics card I'm also going to get a freesync 144hz 27" 1440p monitor. Not exactly sure which one, but I'd prefer another (AH)VA, since it's a good mixture between TN and IPS from my experience.

Not planning to upgrade anytime soon.
