    Does this game require an i7 cpu instead of i5 to look like this? Or a good video card like a 1080?

    Guess it's time to buy an I7. I want the best experience with this title. Thanks guys. :)

    Just to show you what I'm talking about, the game is Star Trek Bridge Crew VR. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-9B9jifj-k Ubisoft is basically saying in this video that in order to get these physics effects, solar flare effects and bridge destruction effects that it's obtainable with an i7...

    New PC build randomly freezing

    I wish there was an easy way to figure out which part is bad, or if it's even a driver. Would the system logs tell me?

    New PC build randomly freezing

    Here is my build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/YGTJ6h I have tried both Windows 10 and Windows 7. It doesn't matter. It will randomly freeze whether I'm playing a game, watching a video on youtube, or just sitting at the desktop. It's very random and I could be playing a game fine for 3 hours and...

    Should I get 1600 or 1866 memory?

    I'm going to be running an i5-4670k cpu on an Asus VI Formula board (i know, overkill). I was going to get the Gskill ddr3-1600 with 9-9-9-24 timings. It's only like $10 more for the 1866. Will my cpu and board even be able to run the memory at 1866? I plan on overclocking as well. Which...

    Is 16GB really necessary?

    As cheap as RAM is, there's no reason not to just run 16GB. Why go only 8GB just to prove a point?

    Asus board purchase

    If money isn't really an object, is there an issue with buying either the Asus Maximus VI Extreme or Formula boards? I see a lot of people buying/recommending the Sabertooth or even the Hero boards on here, and I know as far as performance there really isn't that much difference between them...

    Best GPU brand/??

    MSI all the way. Also, I know you're talking about the 760, but just for informational purposes...the MSI GTX 780 Ti GAMING received the best reviews out of the major brands. It's also the quietest card barely pushing 30 dba under 100% load.

    Looking to build a 4 monitors system / casual gaming (<$450)

    Before we start picking out parts, I just want to make sure of something. You want to build a gamer rig that can support 4 monitors and have dual video cards in SLI, or even 4 way SLI with a budget of $300-400?
