Awesome - I can't wait to build this and I can't thank you enough. I built my first PC 10 years ago with complete guidance from this forum and it still runs like a dream. It just can't handle some of the latest games (Baldur's Gate).

Wow you really got the price down and the components look awesome! It's gonna be a tough decision between your build and Logain's.

I'd like to keep it under 3K. I'll be using this for my monitor but I'm not stuck on it if someone has a better 4K option: LG 27" 144 Hz Nano IPS UHD Nano IPS Gaming Monitor AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible 3840 x 2160 (4K)

Getting ready to replace my 10+ year old PC. I used NewEgg's custom build tool to put this list together. Before I send them all my money was hoping someone could eyeball this list of components and let me know if there are are issues. Thanks in advance! Processor: AMD Ryzen™ 9 7950X3D...

On a side note: that unknown phone did not turn up in my router's list of attached devices. This just doesn't make sense to me.

One attempt and I was prompted to accept or deny. I denied of course. My router had a strong password as did my wifi. Totally confused how my TV popped up on someone's One Plus Nord phone. I just changed my wifi settings to turn of SSID broadcasting and changed all passwords as well as the name...

I use my TV as a PC monitor (via HDMI). I was playing a game and suddenly got a message that a One Note phone wanted to Screen Mirror my TV. My questions right now are Wouldn't someone need to be connected to my LAN to see my TV (as in - has my wifi been hacked?) Can Screen Mirroring show my...

My budget's about $1500, it's being built from scratch, and i'm purchasing parts in the U.S. from New Egg. Thank you for these replies. On your recommendations I changed out the 980 for EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC GAMING ACX 3.0 Black Edition and the z270 mobo for GIGABYTE G1 Gaming...

The cable is part of the cooler itself. You're saying the end of it gets plugged into my SSD?

I'm installing a Kraken x61 that does not come with directions other than how to screw the fans on to the radiator. The Kraken has: a 4 pin connector multiple connectors for the fans a cable with a flat-ish connector labeled "SATA" My mobo has a 3 pin CPU1 - I plugged in the 4 pin connector...

Awesome - thank you both!

I built a new system yesterday with a 256gb SSD as main drive and a 1tb HDD in my sata 2. Steam and Skyrim are installed on the SSD. I'd like to install other Steam games on the HDD and have them run from there. Is it possible to do? Will there be a performance hit? I have an liquid cooled i5...
