You mean you wouldn't throw a 3400G APU in that bad boy??

In case anyone runs into the same issue, I've figured out the solution. The issue was 2 slightly bent pins in the CPU socket of the motherboard. They were just bent enough to cause instability during extreme overclocking and evidently poor signalling to the main PCI-e 16x slot. I carefully...

I have a GTX 1070 in the top slot of an Arock Extreme3 z77 motherboard. The motherboard and card support 16x 3.0. But the card runs at 4x speed according to GPUz. Even with the render test on. Nothing else is in any of the other PCI-E slots. When I plug the GPU into the second slot, it's runs...

Nah, your examples are incorrect. You're confusing advancements in technology with SKU's in a product line. Many businesses follow similar pricing themes with their product arrays. And the pricing for each tier of SKU is generally stagnant unless affected by other factors like the ones...

Nah, you're looking at it wrong. Consumer electronics get cheaper, true. But ASIC-type technology typically provides newer and better advancements for stagnant prices (best case scenario). My only point being, you can't blanket statement "Consumer electronics get cheaper over time" because you...

^ yeah it's a pretty shifty move . Probably marketing related. The 1060 3 GB and 6 GB have a similar relationship to the GTX 660 and 660 TI from a few gens back. Only they were nice enough to differentiate the two with the TI moniker. Not so much this time.

No P-states at all , rofl .

WTB 25xx by 14xx monitor for ~$225 plz

Yes, stronger dedicated GPUs can play games smoother at higher resolutions and detail settings - excellent point.

Every single person that buys a pre-built PC off a store shelf. General population to Enthusiast is 10:1. This lineup of products ensures Intel's stranglehold on the market.

Lol AMD's products depreciate like a Volkswagen Phaeton. The A10-7850K launched at $189.99 USD and 1 year later it's selling at 30% below MSRP. R9 295x2 $1500 USD MSRP, 1 year later, down over 50%. In contrast, Intel's lineup holds value all the way through the product run straight to EoL...

Lol you have reading comprehension issues OP. I never told you to buy anything. I told you what I would do instead. If you don't want opinions from people don't ask. If you're looking for praise for your build look elsewhere. Ignore that up vote it was an accident.
