    Does having a better pair of a mouse and keyboard improve the quality of my gameplay?

    Exactly as stated above. I am looking to buy a new mouse and keyboard and need to know if quality effects my gameplay, if not it could significantly change my shopping list. Extra Answers Needed: I know macros are particularly useful for MOBAs, if someone could clarify if that is true, please...

    Gigabyte Z170 ultra gaming

    Now I have found a good deal (£130 for a Gaming 7 EU) and it came up trumps. So I think this thread had no effect on me at all apart from the CPU!!! Thanks for all your help everyone!

    difference in cas latency

    I found this benchmarking article. http://techbuyersguru.com/gaming-ddr4-memory-2133-vs-26663200mhz-8gb-vs-16gb So now my understanding is that for gaming purpose with a discreet gpu, there is hardly any improvement from faster ram. According to that article, we don't need more than 8gb ram at...

    difference in cas latency

    Just checked on amazon and the price has gone up to £91. So now back to square one. According to you what would be the performance difference between 3000mhz and 3200mhz. I don't have budget issues, just don't want to spend uneccessary money. If the performance gain is worth £15 then I would...

    difference in cas latency

    Isokolon thanks. The height won't be an issue. I am going to use SilentiumPC Fortis 3 HE1425 CPU Cooler. Although it is quite big but it is offset so no obstruction to the memory. Ripzaw with the lower cas is more expensive. Corsair is 3000mhz. So which one do you suggest. I found another...

    Used i7 6700k cpu

    Hi I was looking at a used i7 6700k available on cex. Price is very good, just £220 but I am not sure if it is good idea or not, because it is one of the latest model and why someone has sold it for low price at cex. What you giys think, is it safe to buy used cpu or not. Cex uk does have a...

    Overclocking Evga GTX 1060 SC

    Thanks n0ns3ns3. Rawberries I agree about that lifespan can be reduced but it largely depends on the temperature of the card and how much in a day one uses it. For normal desktop operations it is only running at 253mhz and may run slightly higher when using video etc. About 600mhz overclock...

    Overclocking Evga GTX 1060 SC

    OK I tried with custom fan profile and temps in furmark reached 65 degrees and gpu clock at this temperature was 1885-1923mhz with the manual overclock of 1763 and 1991 base and boost respectively. In unigine valley again I could only overclock base and boost up to 1731 and 1959, a slight...

    Overclocking Evga GTX 1060 SC

    I did log in gpu-z. when running furmark it recorded lower clock and unigine valley it went up to 2113mhz stable. The confusion in my head is that if I manually overclock more than 1724 base and 1952 boost then unigine valley resets the clock back to defaults without any error message where as I...

Some people mention that they overclocked this card to 2125mhz and I understand that 2125mhz has to...

    BSOD nvlddmkm.sys Evga Gtx 1060 SC 6Gb

    Well all these changes did not work. I started getting BSOD within 24 hours. Nvidia released new driver version 372.90. After updating to this driver, I had only 2 BSODs on first and second day and for the last 3 days none at all. So hopefully it works this time.
