I want a new mechanical keyboard. I've only had one. It was a hand-me-down from a friend and it died about 6 months ago so I don't have a lot of experience. I'm looking for a board with a good tactile feel, a bit clicky, but not too loud. The thing is, I don't care about RGB and don't want...

Thank you Bearmann. I was wondering if the speed increase of the 970 EVO would offer any legit advantage. I don't think its worth it in my case. I think the double capacity of the Sandisk is more meaningful to me than the increase in speed I will see from the 970 EVO on my rig. Can anyone...

My mother board is a MSI Z170A Gaming Pro so it does support the m.2. Is the speed of the Sandisk comparable to the 850EVO that I currently have? If it is, I def willing to spend the money for the extra storage. Is the speed increase of the 970 enough to justify half the capacity compared to...

I tried searching for similar questions but didn't have much luck. I'm looking for a new SSD for my gaming rig and I'm not sure which one to buy. I already have a Samsung EVO 850 250GB that has my OS and few games on it (I'm very happy with it buy have limited experience). I have two crappy...

Thank you Champion but I have family at BB so I get a discount and I highly value buying products locally. It supports our local economy and if I have a problem I just drive over to BB for the return rather than having to pay to ship it and then wait weeks for it to be returned.

My local BestBuy has these 2 cards in stock. If you were going to buy one of them which would it be and why? Card1 or Card2 Please don't tell me that I should buy some different card. These 2 cards are the only options unless BestBuy gets a delivery of GTX1060's in by tomorrow. Thank you...

I believe the primary draw for a developer to produce an exclusive title is kick backs from the company it is exclusive to. Also, it costs less to produce since you are only programming it for one platform. I hate that exclusive titles exist but I understand it because exclusive titles are...

Thank you, RockyPlays. I didn't even research whether the Black was faster than the Blue. I just assumed that it was because that's the way it used to be. I figured I wouldn't need the SSHD since I have an SSD but I wanted to hear that from some other people. Right now I'm leaning towards...

I've been doing quite a bit of upgrading and almost have a completely new computer at this point. My next upgrade is going to be for storage. I'm trying to decide between a traditional HDD or a SSHD. I already have a 250g SSD and need something for stuff other than my OS and whatever game(s)...

After some research, I've decided that I def want to go with the skylake. Its seems better to buy a mid teir current chipset rather than the top teir of a chipset that won't be produced anymore. The one BIG question that remains; is there any reason to believe there will be a price drop in the...

The system will be used almost exclusively for gaming. I don't do any streaming or video editing. Like I said in the original post, I do want to use it for VR gaming once the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive have been out for 8-12 months. Will the skylake I5 be sufficient for this purpose? I know...

I'm doing a mojor upgrade right now with the intention of eventually being VR compatible. I just bought a 250gig 850 EVO and will be reusing my R9 270X for now. After I buy one of the packages below I'm going to use my left over components to build a comp and sell to help me buy either a 970...
