So in your opinion what do you think of the score I got in Uningine Heaven? Is it too low and is my card faulty? Or is it just the card paired with older hardware? My main concern is my card being up to snuff. Thank you for taking the time to respond.

So would you say that's what's gimping my score?

Hello, everyone. I'm planning a new build and I just received my RTX 3090 FE. Since all of my other parts haven't been delivered yet I stuck the card in my current system to test it and make sure it's performing okay. Currently, it's paired with a Ryzen 1800X, but next week my Zen 3 will...

Thank you for your input. I know it's a pretty big case from the specs I've seen and how it's rated for dual systems. I'm just struggling to find a nice looking full tower that provides good air flow but also looks nice. I really like the look of the Be Quiet! case I linked above, but I worry...

Thank you for your comment! What do you think of this one? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0894J31QS?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1 Granted, it has no fans, but I could buy three of those. Still, it undoubtedly has better airflow and I could probably get it pretty quiet with some nice 140mm...

Is the Be Quiet! Dark Base Pro 900 Rev.2 full tower a good PC case? I'm planning to use an RTX 3090 FE in it, but I worry about the airflow. It being a "quiet" case, will it have terrible thermals and is that something I should be worried about? I like the case also because its aesthetics; I...

Why do you think I'm better off waiting? Isn't something newer and better always around the corner?

So what do you personally think about me upgrading? My dilemma is that I would upgrade to a CPU that will be the last on a socket (AM4). there's also the possibility that DDR5 will be supported next year. I suppose the GPU isn't really a concern for me, but the CPU is because it's the last of...

I didn't make it apparent, but I'm seeking to do a complete new build, not just putting a new GPU in the current system. I was wondering if it would be worth it. I know my system is still pretty good (especially the 1080 Ti), but I have the upgrade itch, and I know the performance of the RTX...

Thanks for catching that. I made the correction.

Hello everyone, I have the upgrade itch and I wanted advice on whether I should upgrade or not. My current system: CPU: Ryzen 1800X GPU: GTX 1080 Ti Mobo: MSI X370 Carbon Pro RAM: 16GB 3200 Hz I'm playing at 1440p 144hz with Gsync IPS With the RTX 3000 series on the horizon and the Zen...

Are you talking about USB 3.0-3.1 when you say "high-speed front panel connectivity"? My case has a USB 3.0 on the front, but I don't really use it for anything other than plugging in a USB headset occasionally. Very rarely will I transfer pictures, but the speed hasn't been an issue.

Hello, all. I have a quick question. I've had my PC since 2013. I've upgraded the internals since then, but I've kept the case the same. My question is this: How often do you normally change out a PC case? My current case is a full tower. Are there certain technologies that come with the case...

With the samsung migration tool, would I need to reinstall Windows 10 or does that take care of that?

That's what I'm thinking is the problem, but I wanted to ask to make sure it wasn't other hardware failure or something I'm missing. Glad the SSD is working out well for you. :)
