Sorry, my full HW spec is: PSU: Be quiet Straight power 750W MB: MSI Z270 Gaming Plus CPU: I7 6700k (not OC) RAM: G.SKILL 2x8GB 3200 Mhz I've overclocked every single card I've had in the pat 12 years and i've never had such issues with stock BIOS. I've checked that other people easily clocked...

Hello, I have Gigabyte GTX 980Ti G1 After playing with msi afterburner (stock BIOS). I had stable OC With: +87mV +130% power limit +110 Mhz core +400 Mhz memory Then I tried with +450 Mhz memory and the PC froze. I rebooted, reverted to the last stable OC profile, but since then the GPU...

About that games are going to require more and more cores, i've received the same answers a few years ago, when I was building my FX system. Well, my system is now old and the the day when "games are going to require more and more cores" never came (except a few titles). I will not make the same...

I would not hesitate at all if the prices were the same in my country. The build you mentioned is like $ 500 here, not worth it.

Hello everyone. My current system is AMD FX 8320 OC at 4.2 Hyper EVO 212 Gigabyte GA970A UD3P 2 x 4GB Kingston HyperX Fury 1866 120GB Samsung evo 850 Corsair CX600 XFX R9 280X 3GB I mostly play strategy games like the total war sequence, Hearts of Iron IV, and some other games like CS GO...

I think that you are limiting yourself way too much. The g4560 is your best choise. Or 2nd hand pc. For example I just did that last week, and for 220 usd I bought a PC with: cheap Asus 1155 motherboard (forgot the model) XFX R9 280X Intel G2030 4GB RAM 500GH HDD 600W Cooler master PSU and...

The reason for the very good performance is the resolution(i'm with the same). You cant play on higher than your monitor's resolution. If you want to game on 1920x1080, you have to buy 1920x1080 monitor, but your fps will drop a little bit. Honestly I'm really happy with 1600x900(FX 8320 + R9...

Wait, you know that hdd/ssd doesn't really afect game performance? Only the loading times will be better.

You should install directX version 9.0 too for older games.

I really like Fractal Design Define C Window. You should check it.

Honestly, I don't know much about UPS's. But your PSU is rated to operate with 200-240 volts. In this range, you should be safe, but keep in mind, that the voltage could vary and if you are powered by 230V in your area, it's normal to go 225-235 or something like that. If you your UPS can...

The UPS in this case would be just another layer of protection, before your PC (after main fuse). Most power supplies (yours too) have OVP(overvoltage protection) so you PC should just shut down i case of overvoltage. I would leave the UPS anyways. I live in an area where we frequently have...

Yes you can, but you have to check the BIOS to see if there are any PWM settings for that header and put it in something like silent mode and check if the fan is spinning with normal rpm's.

Usually the GPU is the reason for the noise, but it could also be PSU or even motherboard. I've red somewhere, that you could try to overclock the GPU by just a little bit (a couple of MHz) and it could solve the issue. If it doesn't, RMA the GPU. I would suggest to try with another PSU and...

You should always buy same brand, same model and same frequency/timing to minimise the chanse for problems, and even then they may not work together.
