    [SOLVED] Ram question

    Thank you, I bought an aditional 16 gig of ram yesterday. do you think after installing that, it would help level out the cpu and gpu ? I know they will be high at times during games, just looking for a bit of consistency

    [SOLVED] Ram question

    I actually almost never record my streams. Maybe a clip or two here and there. My internet won't be the problem as it's 1 gig / 750 MPs. All other games seem fine but GTA kills me. I just happened to notice the other day that it uses 12 gigs of ram as I have to have so many programs open...

    Thinking about upgrading

    My monitor is 144hz. If I’m going to upgrade I feel like a 1070 wouldn’t be justifiable as I have a 1060 6g right now. If I’m upgrading I want to be happy with the change and make it last 4/5 years. The 10 series is being discontinued

    Thinking about upgrading

    I would love to do that. The problem is getting my hands on a 1080ti is near impossible as they’re discontinued so I may have to go to 2080. My monitor is 1920x1080.

    Thinking about upgrading

    yeah i was thinking that. my budget for the graphics card and cpu is about 2000. if i switched to intel i understand that would increase the cost. im just looking to upgrade and not have to touch it for 4/5 years
