    Case RGB Compatibility

    Hey guys, I've finished compiling a parts list for my first Ryzen build. The case I've chosen is the P400S tempered glass. It says that with the adaptor that can be bought on their website you can connect the RGB lighting at the front and the RGB led strip in the case with asus aura or msi...

    Help with RGB in build

    Hey guys! I'm building a Ryzen 1600 + RX 580 PC. The only thing which I'm having problems with is my RGB synchronisation and thus the motherboard + gpu choice. My case is a P400S Tempered Glass. It has an included LED strip and some RGB at the front. These can apparently be synced to Asus Aura...

    Is GPU bottlenecking my CPU?

    Yes, your problem isn't lag. It's fps drops. However, you said you got only a few fps at time in games with a GTX 1070. See my previous comment - something isn't right. Check your temperatures, and that you aren't using integrated graphics.

    Is GPU bottlenecking my CPU?

    Then there's definitely something wrong, you shouldn't be getting anywhere near those frame rates with a 1070! How long have you had the 1070 for? Is it a new card? If so, make sure that you're not using your integrated graphics. If that's not the problem, then benchmark the card because there...

    Gigabyte Aorus Z270 Gaming K5 vs Gaming 5

    Hey guys! I've decided on a Gigabyte motherboard to go with my Gigabyte GPU, and I really like the looks of the Aorus motherboards. They also have the features I need. I don't want to spend an insane amount of money, definitely not above 200 dollars (although I'm living in Europe xD). This...

    Need help with PSU

    A 550W PSU is indeed recommended, giving you a little room. The one you've picked is of very good quality. Personally, I (mostly) only recommend PSU's from EVGA and Seasonic as they use higher quality components, so the one you've linked is definitely a good pick!

    GTX 1060 3GB or GTX 1060 6GB

    Hi! Personally, I don't like the 3gb GTX 1060 at all. The 3GB extra VRAM will really come in handy in the next few years. Some people think the RX 470/480 4GB versions are cutting it close for VRAM usage, but the 3GB 1060 would be even worse. In that regard, the 6gb version is definitely more...

    Need help, old Desktop recommended upgrades for gaming. "Full Specs"

    It really depends what you want. Are you happy with the games you play, and the performance you get? If so, you shouldn't upgrade. However, if you want more performance, or want to play heavier, nicer, newer games i'd save up for a while to afford yourself a decent new rig from scratch. If you...

    Will my rx 470 go well with my current specs?

    Well, the easy answer is yes and yes. The rx 470 will go good with it as long as you get another stick of ram so ou havfe 8gb. However, if you have some money to upgrade and want more detailed advice, please give me your complete specs and parts list, preferably using a pcpartpicker list.
