I have 8gb of RAM. Would you recommend then that I put the OS on the 1tb 7200rpm with slower read/write speeds and games on the other?

OK, so the past week i've been trying to bust my ass figuring out why I was getting unreal frame drops in one of my games and in another game textures wouldn't load in for ~30 seconds after they should. I had an old 7200 rpm hdd lying around and I put it into my pc and installed windows in it...

I bought a Gtx 1060 with the intention of receiving Ghost Recon Wildlands or For Honour with it due to a promotion that was taking place. After 3 weeks of waiting and multiple chats with Amazon support, apparently I can't get my code due to a "technical error". <removed> my life. Me: Didn't...

Hi everyone, I'm building a pc and i'm just wondering if all these parts are compatible. Thanks for the help. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FVsdGf

I know a bit about PC's, however I think it would be best to ask other people who would know better than I do. I'm selling my current PC and building a new one, could you please just tell me if I were to buy all these parts would they work with each other. I know it's a lot to ask for you to...

Thanks for all the replies lads- I play games (at least, try to) like Arma and Squad (milsims). They are quite cpu intensive. I know that the 750ti is more than enough for these games it's just the cpu that's letting me down. I think the best thing I could do now is get a good fan and OC the...

So realistically would it then be better to get a 6300 and OC it? I don't know much about overclocking, I would be using AMD overdrive at the end of the day. I don't have much money so I would prefer getting the cheaper of the 6300/8350 even if it means I will miss out on a small amount of fps...

Hey, according to CPU-Z my motherboard is an Asus M5A97. Not sure what my psu is, but I think it is sufficient because my gpu isn't hooked up to it (runs off motherboard) and when I bough the PC 2 years ago (pre owned) it had a radeon 6870 hooked up to it. Thanks for your answer.

I currently have an fx 4100 paired with a gtx 750ti. I was just wondering would I notice a difference in performance if I were to upgrade to an 8350, so basically is it better to spend ~150 euro on the 8350 or spend ~500 euro on an entire new pc. Any input is appreciated and yes I do know that...

I bought my pc second hand early last year and it had windows 7 installed. I recently got the free upgrade to windows 10 and it has been great so far, however my hard drive is getting filled up quickly and I would like to reset and get a fresh install. Will I have to enter a product key? I...

I bought my PC pre-built last February and I had no knowledge on building PC's or upgrading them. I recently upgraded to a GTX 750ti, it really increased my performance however I was always wanting a better performance in games such as Arma and Dayz which are very heavily dependent on the CPU...
