    Question Silent RTX 5080 - RMA

    Okay. It appears to be a common issue however it has nothing to do with the longevity of the GPU. Coil whine is something I have faced with most GPUs. I have used almost all the brands from MSI to ASUS to EVGA. The coil whine till some extent was always present. Some were more noticeable, some...

    Kaby Lake or Coffee Lake? [Detailed Question]

    If your aim is future proofing, forget kaby lake. 6 core processor is what you need. So decide between 8700k and 8600k. If you are only gaming, get the 8600k otherwise get 8700k if you are doing content creation.

    Kaby Lake or Coffee Lake? [Detailed Question]

    Corsair VS series PSUs are the lowest quality ones. Please upgrade that first to something decent like CXm, RMx or HXm. Secondly, buying an i7 7700k is now pointless as i5 8600k is there which is cheaper, some 2-3% faster at gaming and significantly faster at content creation, so if you are...

    i7 2600k to i5 8600k worth it?

    i7 2600k to i5 8600k worth it?

    Hi, I just bought an i5 8600k to replace my 2600k (mobo died). I mostly do gaming so will I see a huge improvement? My 2600k was running at 4.4 GHz. Apart from that I have GTX 1070 and 1080p 60Hz screen.

    Should I return my GTX 1070 and wait for Volta?

    Hi, I have an unopened EVGA GTX 1070 SC delivered to my home. Recent rumors are suggesting that Volta could be out in Q3 2017. I don't know whether I should return my 1070 and wait for Volta or just keep it. I play on 1080p 60 fps for which 1070 should be an overkill but maybe Volta would bring...
