    [SOLVED] Which CPU is better the i5-760 or Xeon x3450

    the xeon x3450 will be the best of those two for better all thread performance (practically 30% higher) and that will be nice for when you upgrade your gpu (not to mention being able to run more cpu intensive games and applications etc, and much better multitasking capability). something like a...

    Question Games crash/freeze randomly & weird GPU/CPU usage ?

    Okay I'm gonna try to gather some basic information.. What motherboard do you have? And could you record the beep or time how long it is? That beep is caused by an issue with your system so your motherboard detects that and makes a beep, which is a code. So we gotta know what mobo you got and...

    okay so I found this one. What do you think of it? It's cheaper than the apc alternative by $10 and has 2 more ports, and a 3 year warranty that also covers the batteries.

    [SOLVED] Currently running an RX5 3600 - is it worth it to upgrade to a RX5 5600X

    I think it'd be a worth it upgrade as you're getting more single core performance so even if you aren't cpu-bound you'll still have more performance, and if you ever do get cpu-bound well the 5600x has more multicore performance so it won't happen or it will be less severe, as the 3600 is...

    [SOLVED] While Playing Games and Recording the computer freezes, goes black, and reboots.

    You could run memtest86 (boot it off usb) here's a tutorial. to ensure it isn't a memory problem as that can cause instability, and also stress test your cpu with something like intelburntest. if there's no instability found try upping the difficulty. :)

    [SOLVED] While Playing Games and Recording the computer freezes, goes black, and reboots.

    As to why it only happens when gaming and recording, that's due to the fact that instabilities tend to show when under intense load, which recording even if it's on gpu still can use cpu...

    [SOLVED] R5 5600x pushing up to 1.5v idle because PBO tells it to

    Ryzen cpus at idle run at higher clock speeds and so they use higher voltage so there's no instability, then when under load they lower their voltage since they're running at lower clock speeds. This should be fine. :)

    [SOLVED] Lower fps than expected on pc

    I'd say you need more ram and a more powerful cpu, but if you wanna truly check, you can follow this tutorial and just set gpu usage, cpu usage, and ram usage. You can also set cpu and gpu temperatures cause might as well. if your cpu and/or ram is pegged at 100% usage while your gpu isn't being...

    [SOLVED] Upgrade? Replace? Lower standards?

    Your pc is definitely in need of an upgrade for those titles, the 1060 6GB which is a little step up from your gpu is already a little dated. I'd recommend holding out for now and upgrading your GPU once prices settle. I'd recommend turning shadows, effects, reflections etc down to minimum, then...

    [SOLVED] AT2020 what do I need to get it functional?

    So I did more research and came to the conclusion that an XLR microphone would be the best microphone to get (just cause of the superior quality etc over a usb microphone). Now I'm thinking of this bundle on amazon. I'm gonna use the microphone for voice chatting(discord), singing(possibly...

    [SOLVED] Xmp does not work , any ideeas?

    Your cpu supports up to 2933mhz ram, have you tried to see (if there's an xmp profile for it) if 2933mhz works? I can only assume it's crashing cause it'd be running well above it's rated spec.
