So i've fixed up an old dell optiplex 780 (intel e7500, 2gb 1066mhz ram, 03nvj6 motherboard), surprisingly getting a 2-3 second boot time with a SSHD. The motherboard supports 1333mHz ram, 4 sticks of it up to 16gB, CPU is 1066mHz FSB however so in theory with a 1333mHz ram stick it would...

Yeah it comes with a genuine license but i'll be using my own anyway. Thank you very much for your help, I really appreciate your time! I'll be sure to do it as soon as I get it next week :)

I've heard an absolute tonne of stories about people migrating and having so many problems so I thought i'd just do a completely fresh install seeing as no data will be lost. Are those steps all correct then to install the m.2 and use it as my boot drive?

Hey, I had a quick question that I wanted some clarification on. I have just purchased a new computer that has windows 10 installed on an SSD, I was going to buy and install a Samsung m.2 drive and wanted it to be my boot drive. To do this I need to format the SSD using DBAN, install the m.2...

OCD Tweaker the i7 4790k CPU is a different socket type than the i7 6700k and cannot utilize DDR4 RAM so isn't right for what this person wants but the i7 4790k is still a very decent CPU.

I've just finalised my build for an i7 6700k build, if you want to check out the parts i'm going to use here they arehttp://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/XKnWNG I recommend the MSI z170a M7 motherboard as it can support ddr4 up to 3600Mhz, it has the best overclocking features I have seen from a...

ill go for those fans then :) thank you so much for all of your help, you've been unbelievably helpful and I appreciate it a lot!!! I'm looking forward to be able to build this now, I'll hopefully have it all done by the start of june!

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/XKnWNG So that's the build I'm going to go for unless you guys have anything you think would be better or be best changed? I've also then got the cost of a USB wifi adapter, Crossfire cable and I believe that's it, I've got a mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc. So for a...

I believe it was only 25 more watts compared to a 970, not sure about the 980ti wattage though. Thankyou though, I forgot all about the extra heat, I guess I need to invest in some more case fans, have you got any suggestions for the fractal design r5 case? I can put about 100 GBP extra into the...

I've just found out that the nvidia gpus will more than likely be out after the time I need all my parts unfortunately... so I've done some more looking around and was wondering (as I'm a bit of a radeon sapphire fan) whether 2 r9 390s crossfired would be better than one 980ti as on paper two...

I'll have a look at the non K cpus then, thank you. i'll have a look at the monitors too it's just I can't get too big as I need to take this all over the country in a crammed car so 24" is probably the largest I could go unfortunately. I've heard some good things about both SSDs, would you...

Thank you both very much for your answers :) I believe I did mean the H60, sorry. After looking at that cryorig H7 I think I will be going with that for a cpu cooler instead. I will more than likely be doing overclocking as for a disertation for university which is why I was thinking about using...

Hey all! So I'm doing a heavy gaming build for university so I need a future proof computer for at least 5 years but I've only got 1500 GBP to spend on it, i'm very confused on what case I need which is the main question but I'd also like to know if my parts will all be compatable, any help...
