    Upgrading my PC, finding the right mixture of bottlenecks

    Hey all, short update: I bought the GTX 1060 and the i5-8600k - ofc i didn't check if its compatible with my mobo and it is not >.< now I am debating if I return the CPU or buy a new motherboard - Do you have any suggestions for a good motherboard (<200€) which still supports DDR3 RAM? Cheers

    New GPU not working with my current Set-Up

    Yeah we tried the GPU of hi brother and it worked 2 questions: If there is no OS installed and no drivers for the new GPU, should we be able to get a signal while booting up? We do get one from the Internal but not from the GPU at the moment Is there a "false" pcie slot? He has 2 on his mobo
