I would just like to have the best cpu possible for the smoothest experience while racing to get the best times possible. Also, I don't have a cpu bottleneck but I'm only getting around 60fps on my 1440p screen. (ultra) I have a gtx 1080 OCed with my cpu OCed to 4.8 Ghz. Something isn't right.

I'm just wondering if there are any significant differences between the 8th gen and the 9th gen cpus. I currently have an 8600k and am wondering if an upgrade would benefit me. I do serious sim racing so I am after a good cpu.

Its an AIO cooler just for the cpu. The build is both rgb and performance. The case should have a manual on how to place the liquid cooler.

No it is just an insight into which parts to pick. Are you going for rgb or performance?

Try this good looking and good performance build.https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/DjPNWD

would you care about looks or solely care about performance?

It could be a problem with your lcd monitor

I have had the same experience with an FX-8350 cpu and fps dropped significantly in short bursts and then returned to a stable fps. I upgraded to an intel i5 8600k and everything worked well ever since

That could be it. Try getting a new ethernet cable

EVGA 550+ gold would be good

Never shut down by turning off your psu or your system might shortcircuit and destroy the whole system. Is your psu wattage sufficient for your system?

It could be that your ethernet cable is damaged. Check if the pins are aligned or are still there

Is it better for workstation or gaming or both?

As a casual gamer, 8gb of ram should be enough. The mhz that is shown in each different type of ram means how fast it is. A b360 MOBO is enough if you are not an overclocker.

Will you be using your build for a workstation or as a gaming pc?
