more than 8 is a meme
8 is perfect, probably will be for a couple more years

If you don't know, why did you buy it?

>>377789168
>960
>1440p

wat

>>377789402
Ok its me your right.

>>377789428

Its not that off, I used a 970 for 1440p and it worked fine in all but a few games, namely Witcher 3.

I only upgraded because I an do 1440p/110hz too.

>>377789527
970 is much better than a 960

>1440p
for what? half life?

>>377789572

No it isn't, in fact the 1060 is slightly better in most cases.
Also has that missing 0.5gb vram.

>>377789168
Not much same shit as your current PC but you'll be able to play games on high setting and with more FPS

>>377789692
Noone mentioned the 1060.

>>377789795

My mistake

>>377789818
Yes, yes it was. Now lick my feet.

>>377789168
With a 960 you aren't doing 1440p on any semi-demanding new games.

What the fuck does the 1060 have to do with the 970 slaughtering the 960 you autistic piece of shit

>>377789949

They both make you mad for no good reason?

I used a 770 for my 1440p screen before

>>377789293
I don't understand this attitude. Yes technically speaking those specs are a few years old but that will still run 99% of games perfectly well.

How much life do you think this card still has? Its on the minimum requeriments for Tekken 7

;w;

Not at 1440p, not really.

is this prebuilt comp good for the price? its coming in the mail and was a bit under $2,000.
gtx 1080 ti
i7-7700k
32gb ddr4 ram
240gb ssd and 3tb hard drive

>>377790439
Wrong. There's hardly any game on the PC market that will eat up all that power at 1440p. I could name the games it would struggle with on one hand.

>>377790618

You don't need to, I played with a 770 at 1440p for like two years, plenty will choke.

haha germanfag cant built his own pc

>>377790574
Not too bad, overkill on the ram desu though. Will be obsolete once the ryzen/vega combo is released

>>377789168
>i7
>960
Classical prebuilt scam

>>377790574

Looks okay, but knowing pre-builts mostly use cheapest MOBO and PSU I bet you coul've saved some $$ doing it yourself

>>377790574
>32 gig of ram
lol why

>>377789168
Gore isn't aloud here

>>377790729
I got my cards confused, I thought the 960 was more powerful than it is, you're right, the 960 will choke.

>>377790962

Its okay I got confused above too.

>>377790220
This, in my life I owned 3 nvidia 2 amd, my last amd card was 7870 and there will probably never be another.
Nvidia might be jews, but at least their shit works

>>377791005
I really do hope Vega succeeds though, nvidia needs some competition. Looking forward to computex next week

>1080 ti

Not too bad, anon, although if you were to build it yourself you could save a bit of money. You could even choose the parts and get someone else to build it if you can't be bothered, and it won't cost that much extra.

>>377789168
this piece of shitbox is overpriced as fuck. if you can't into pc specs just buy a goddamn ps4 retard

>>377789168
>720p machine

>>377789387
some badly optimized games will use more than 8, 16 is fine
>>377789168
>960
>1440

stop posting this thread

>>377789387
Depends what you're doing with your pc.
I could do with 8, even 4, but some wagies I know don't even have enough with 16 because they use a bunch of bloatware like google drive, spotify, adobe suite, etc

>>377790574
If I spend 2 grand im getting more than 240GB of SSD

>>377790408
At least 3 years if you dont mind not playing at 1080p

>>377789168
Not actually playing anything and just coming back here.

>>377791228
Closer to 900p but yeah, still pretty pathetic

anything i'm missing with this build?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/khVXqk

Is it worth it to get a 1070 now or a 1060 3GB and upgrade to 1080 or something else in a couple years?

>>377792097
Would you buy 680 today?

>>377793160
I guess not

>>377792097

If you don't plan on going far above 1080p the 1070 will last years.

it's not worth making a new thread so I'll ask here.

I built this back in 2013 and it's reached the point where I can't really run most new shit on even minimum.

Would I be better off upgrading parts or just completely starting over? I don't know enough about computer parts to comfortably make that decision myself.

>>377789168
>gtx 960 with i7 6700

are you fucking retarded? even 2x stronger gtx 1060 can't handle 1440p

>>377793679

Start over, maybe you can salvage the PSU but everything there is dated and AMD-AMD is just a bad choice today.

>>377793679
start completely over and buy intel cpu, not some meme shitty ryzen, along with nvidia card or rx 570/470 if you want cheaper but worse performance than gtx 1060/1070/1080

>>377790574
There's no such thing as a prebuilt that's good for the price.
