First of all, I'd like to award you the best answer but unfortunately, I don't have the "check" option on the right hand side. As for the backups, I've been using the physical files saved from Dropbox onto my local hard drive as my version of the backup. What would be a better option that you...

Hello Everyone! To explain, I currently upload and store videos for my team. Currently, I have them saved through Dropbox while syncing to PC, in order to have both a local archive and an online one that the team can access remotely. Unfortunately, I only bought a 2TB HDD and now I'm at about...

Hi guys! I have experience building a few PCs, but they were all in normal mid/full-tower cases. I want to build a more portable PC (that I can also use in smaller, less spacious areas) which means I also have to build in more compact spaces - something I've never really done. PCPartPicker...

Hmmm, that could be good! I'll have to see what's around - I'm in Italy so that there might be a slightly lower used part/secondhand market.

Thanks for the info - I'll take that into consideration :)

Well exactly - my friend probably won't be editing over 1080p for at least a year, so I should be good. I was just wondering what the most important aspect of a video editing PC would be? Like should I spend a greater ratio of the budget on a higher core count CPU, or would looking at lower...

Hey all! Looking to make a decent 1080p video editing rig for a friend - probs around $1000-$1500. Obviously with such a constrained budget, I need to look to concentrate on the most important aspects of video editing. I often build gaming rigs, but I don't know what the most important part of...

Thank you so much! Here's something funny- I was so dumb. I thought that the standoff was actually the screw so I was searching for the standoff that I had all along. I had the screw which came with the box. I've never worked with M.2s before (first time build with them - usually went with SATA...

Thanks for the recommendation! I haven't contacted the MSI Support yet (because I've heard they don't send parts), but I might in the future. Other than that, I appreciate your suggestion on the M2 8mm! Also, I know you might not know - but in the case that all immediate solutions (MSI...

Hey! So I have an MSI B450 Tomahawk Max and today I was installing the M.2 drive and noticed that the board didn't come with a standoff. Considering the quarantine, I can't go out to the PC stores (because I'm in Italy and they're all closed). The standoffs I find online (mostly only Amazon...

Any chance you didn't uninstall the graphics drivers you had (like with DDU) and just left them as they were when you changed the GPUs around?

For me there are some parts that have always worked, and whose style I (mostly) always like: Mobo andn GPU - MSI SSD (whether NVME or otherwise) - Samsung PSU - EVGA

I would try removing the new stick of 8GB RAM, and seeing how the FPS is. I can't think of why anything else would have an effect on the FPS.

Thank you! I was concerned about the U12 price, but I didn't want to stick with the stock AMD cooler and the U12 is of the better coolers I've had good experiences with! From no comment on the CPU/GPU, I assume that you think that the current setup is good!

Hey all, I just want to confirm one more time that this is a good setup for 1080p, 60FPS on High graphics for most AAA titles for the next 2 years. Max looking to pay is €1500. Obviously the PCIe slot provides extensive upgrading options in the future, but before buying the mobo I want to be...
