Hi all, I'm in the process of planning to build a new computer for college (https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yY63XH) and ran into a problem. The Gigabyte GA-Z170N motherboard I have comes with a BIOS that doesn't support the 7th Generation i7-7700 I'm planning on building with it. I don't have...

Good to know, thanks!

Ohhh, ya I'll think on that. Thank you.

Hey all, As a college student who's been saving up money from work I'd love to make a PC Build. It would mainly be used for gaming and video editing (Triple AAA Games, Premiere Pro) in addition to normal school work. I've wanted to go Mini-ITX to save space, but don't want to end up paying too...

Okay, I think I'm ready to finally pull the trigger on my build. But I'm still waffling on a graphics card, and some other components of this build. I chose 980 as I'd like to play Ark Survival and my budget is around 1300 bucks anyway. The fully modular power supply because of the small case...

Hey Guys, I know you probably hear it a lot about 980 v 970 but I was wondering if I should upgrade my build to a 980 from a 970. For benchmarks I'd like to run GTA V at 1080p at 60 frames and if possible I'd like to play a little Ark (yes I know its hard to run anyway). Additionaly since I am...

Thank you very much! Otherwise I think this is a well rounded build. You all are great. I'll be going with the Xeon.

Okay, it's starting to make more sense yes. Sorry about the confusion, alright right now I am leaning toward the Xeon. However I do have a couple more questions. 1. For the Xeon should that mobo be upgraded or is it okay? 2. For the gaming I'm doing (GTA V 60 FPS and other games) would it be...

I like the Xeon, but I'm afriad because people have told me it won't do well for gaming. I trust you guys over here more. What's the deal... is the Xeon good for gaming? Or should I stick with the i5? EDIT: So Eggz, what card would you recommend that isn't much higher of a price, or should I...

Hi Guys, I'm building a gaming PC and am nearly done, however I've been suggested two different CPU's; -Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor or -Intel Xeon E3-1231 V3 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor I would like to run GTA V at, at least 60 frames, along with other similar games. In...

Thank you so much to both of you! I appreciate it GREATLY!
