    About to order my new GTX 1070. What would you say would give me a better cooler overclock? The EVGA FTW 1070 or The Asus Strix ROG 1070?

    3570k VS 6700k

    Well, the main thing for me is that I really enjoy putting computers together. So the money isnt the biggest issue here. Its my hobby :) The difference is here. The i5 has 4 cores and 4 threads. The new i7 has 4 cores and 8 threads and due to the 14nm size there is a increase in efficiency...

    Would my CPU bottleneck a GTX 1080?

    Yeah, Changing the voltage was the problem. I would change it in the bios, then go back and find out it wasn't changed... I also really really suck at overclocking.

    Would my CPU bottleneck a GTX 1080?

    This computer is for gaming purposes only. At the moment I have a 1080p monitor so Im thinking Im gonna destroy anything with a gtx 1080. But Im planning on grabbing a new 1440p monitor to spice things up.

    Would my CPU bottleneck a GTX 1080?

    Yeah, I've got a gigabyte UD4H motherboard which apparently is great for overclocking. My cpu is cooled by an H60 but every single time I try overclock it becomes unstable. Even with 4.2ghz everything goes crazy.

    Would my CPU bottleneck a GTX 1080?

    Ram speed and size

    I noticed a significant difference in fallout 4 today with my new ram. The frame rate does die when I go to the city so much anymore, and It got rid of some stuttering in the city as well which is awesome.

    Hello, I was just wondering if switching from 8gb of Muskhin enhanced 1600mhz ddr3 ram to Corsair Vengeance pro 2400mhz 16gb would make any different in games or general use. I play games like Fallout 4, Witcher 3, and Battlefield 4 a lot. Computer Specs: Intel i5 3570k Stock Corsair h60 GTX...

    Best RAM for the price

    After reading some things about Fallout 4's Ram optimization and seeing that it might make a noticeable impact on Fallout has given me a reason to finally upgrade from 8gb of ram... I would like to upgrade to high speed ram, like 2400mhz... I know people will say "It doesnt make a difference"...

    Voltage wont Change

    Im Using CPU-Z and Constantly checking it while doings tests with Intel burn, Prime95 and Cinebench. I just had to drop down from 4.2ghz to 4ghz because I got a blue screen. This is turning into too much work :( not enough reward...
