I think I figured the BIOS one but should I update the BIOS? some people tell me not to as it can cause more problems than anything, my pc is basically built from scratch, there's literally nothing on it not even an os.

Hi SO, I am very pleased to announce that I've finally did it...I've built my very own pc...With alot of research I finally managed to put it up and probably has to be one of the most exciting yet very stressful experience of my life, I pushed the power button to finally see that IT WORKED...

Sorry for replying late, but what's the difference between 1080p and 1440p? I don'T mind the idea of 1440p and lowering a few settings...sure I'll do a bit more research as to what I have to decrease that won't affect the quality and give me more FPS like...not so useful settings but what's the...

Thing is...I've watched a few videos and even with a gtx 1080 some games like Ghost recon can only run like at 70ish fps on ultra on 1080...so wouldn't going for a 1440p 144hz ruin greatly the fps?

That's definitely not what I was expecting when buying this pc... I went a tiny bit over budget for it didn't expect that I'd have to get a different monitor to get the max out of my new pc... :/ would a 144hz at 1080p be good enough? I'd like the 1440p one but that thing is expensiveeee even...

Hi, I don't know what monitor I should go for or if I even need to upgrade from my current Dell (idk the name...) 1080p 60hz monitor. I'll be playing games like: GTA V, Dishonored 2, CS:GO, Rainbow six siege, Ghost recon wildlands, Watch dogs 2, Arma 3, The division Here's my pc (Still in...

I was aiming for a full sync with Asus AURA build like black and with some RGB but that's a very good price for what's in there, I wouldn't mind it as long as the case isn'T open haha... I could drop the 2TB SSHD and take just a regular 1TB HDD for games n pictures and use that extra saved money...

This PC is coming up to 2264.22 CAD$ which to be honest, is hitting over a little over the limit, I was trying to get around the $2000 and not more but it's fine, not more though. Thing is, I know if I remove the RGB ram, go with a ROG Strix Gaming board F version over the Crosshair hero VI...

Oh also atm, for only 40$ I can go from a 1600x (originally planned) to a 1700 + a nice cooler I like and 2 more cores :P

I'm hearing that games will use more cores in the future as some of them already do, which is why I went with Ryzen, I know Intel would've given me my FPS that I'm looking for but the difference in too small about 5ish % for 100% more, I'll also be going to college in the near future, I believe...

Hi, I am very excited about my new project, my first pc build. Case: Phantek p400 Tempered Glass Storage: Seagate FireCude Gaming SSHD 2TB 7200 RPM Mobo: ASUS ROG Crosshair hero VI AM4 x370 GPU: ASUS ROG Strix Gtx 1080 8Gb VRAM (OR) ASUS ROG Strix Gtx 1060 6Gb VRAM PSU: EVGA SuperNova 650 G1...

Thanks a lot :) Also...would a 1060 in this case be good enough to run all tripple A tittles on high maybe ultra graphics? like Rise of the tomb raider, Ghost recon wildlands...arma 3...squad...GTA V? I want my investment to be worth it if not, I can always save for a 1080 but we're talking a...

I think the Canadian dollar is dropping indeed, it isn't what it used to be a few years back. That being said, It is 445$ on amazon and 449.99 on Newegg. Not much a difference. I am wondering if the prime mobo you suggested that I now applied to my build, will be compatible with my G-skill...

Are you looking at US prices? Mine are canadian prices, On amazon I'd be only saving 5$ off compared to newegg
