    Question Upgrading i7-5820k

    Apologies yes, sorry board wise I would probably go for: ASUS PROART Z790-CREATOR WIFI or ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-F GAMING WIFI or ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO - mainly because those the only Z790 boards available in the bundle being offered. There are Z690 boards that can be selected, but thought it...

    [SOLVED] PSU requirements for my build

    Hi there, I have recently just purchased a 2080 super - I did a lot of debating between purchasing this and the 2070 super and decided to spend the extra cash to hopefully get some good 4k gaming experience (it's also a birthday present to myself). This is my current rig. Asus X99-A/USB3.1...

    Games running worse on better hardware

    The screenshots in your original post to me do not point to anything wrong with your system. Not sure if everyone agrees but i cannot see an issue with that.

    Games running worse on better hardware

    It’s difficult to really understand what the problem is without some sort of video of the issue because you’re saying you have high FPS but the “The games are laggy, but the lag is not visible. It is hard to explain but I definitely feel the lag but my frame rate remains high.” Have you tried...

    Low FPS in CS GO

    High fps is required on cs go, people debate this all the time but the game feels sluggish if therre isn't a high frame rate. It's not even just about framerate consistency although, keeping above 300 makes the game feel smooth. To me the game feels slow if it dips below 180 fps, which makes no...
