It's a better way of understanding as I've seen benchmarks of the card running at 2000mhz and 3000MB which is exactly what my 1050Ti runs at so that information means absolutely nothing. Looking at fps alone doesn't explain to me how, why and by how much the card has a performance increase.

Sorry I meant 60% not 30%. Sounds good to me! Thanks for the help!!

So the card has a set number of CUDA cores, and those cores are pushed at a particular clock speed, and that's what determines the gaming performance? Is this relevant to gaming or just GPU rendering? I was never clear exactly what CUDA's function was. Let's do some random meaningless maths...

I don't really see it as a waste of money. I see €500 for a 1070Ti and another €500 for a 1440p display a waste of money as the extra money that it costs is better spent on other things that I actually need the money for, rather than 1080p gaming which I honestly don't need anything more than a...

So I've got a 1050Ti that I overclock and I get good performance from this card, my overclock is stable at 1963mhz and obviously the RAM is a 4GB card. I'm soon going to buy a GTX 1060 6GB, but other than memory, I really don't I understand what the difference is in clock speed at all. If my...

Well I've got my new PSU installed, damn was the CPU plug a nightmare to deal with a Noctua NH-D15, also the Corsair cables wouldn't fit through some of my Fractal cases cable slots. But, so far seems good, still need more time to see if things are resolved but I'm hopeful a faulty PSU was...

I'm looking at the corsair RM650x 80+ any comments? This is actually the second EVGA power supply I've had that failed so not wanting to give them another go.

Even if I'm overclocking the GPU and running in max power mode?

Is 650W suitable for my build or should I upgrade to 750W just to be safe?

If it was RAM or CPU/GPU related I would have expected a BSOD or something. This is like POOF the power is disconnected and restored.

I have tried another wall socket, I figured it could have been the power strip, but the plug is isolated in a single socket now and the PC exhibits the same behaviour.

Yes looking straight from my Amazon order and from remembering the box I am sure that I have the listed PSU.

So I built my own PC a while ago with the following components: MSI Z270-A Pro Intel 7700K Kabylake Noctua NH-D15 Samsung 960 Evo 250GB 16GB Corsair Vengence 2400MHz Gigabyte GTX 1050Ti WF2 EVGA 650W Gold Semi Modular Focusrite Scarlet 2i4 So I've had no issues with this machine at all, I've...

Good suggestion thanks!

The big question is, will Z270 motherboards have the bios updates necessary to support Coffee Lake? To my knowledge half of them don't even support Kaby Lake and already require a CPU in order to update the bios.
