    should i upgrade my CPU or GPU first

    Definitely your CPU. PUBG has the FX-6300 as the minimum requirement which translates into "Use this if you want the game to kinda run." But before you do that, try reading this: http://www.pcgamer.com/best-pubg-settings/ I found it and the link before from a quick Google search on PUBG's...

    Low Minimum FPS @ 1080p With High-End Rig

    I forgot to wrap this thread up, so here's some belated closure: The problem was in fact the CPU. After replacing the motherboard and inserting the CPU in correctly my system runs everything excellently. I told the Gigabyte rep that I was the one who bent the pins and was told that the company...

    Trouble With Rebuilt PC Restarting

    I found the problem. The five long beeps in my case meant that I had the RAM Sticks in the wrong slots as opposed to the more common improperly inserted RAM sticks. I had misread the writing on the motherboard as DDR-4, DDR-3, DDR-2, DDR-1 instead of DDR-4, DDR-2, DDR-3, DDR-1. This has been a...

    Trouble With Rebuilt PC Restarting

    I've preformed the breadboard, and am still getting the same results. I did get five beeps from my case speaker the couple times I was able to start the machine. Any advice on how to proceed?

    Trouble With Rebuilt PC Restarting

    I recently rebuilt my PC after finishing an RMA for my motherboard. After finishing, I found the system will power on, stay on for a few seconds, powers back off, then repeats this process until I force the system off. I've tried troubleshooting ideas, including those in the stickied thread, to...

    Low Minimum FPS @ 1080p With High-End Rig

    Thought I'd give an update on this situation: I have come to the conclusion that my video card is not the source of the problem as I have borrowed my friend's GTX 980 and had identical performance. I got in contact with Gigabyte and, several days later, was told that bent pins do in fact hinder...

    Low Minimum FPS @ 1080p With High-End Rig

    Yes it is the Corsair RMx RM750X 80 Plus Gold. As for software, I normally have the Creative Cloud services, Google Drive, the Nvidia services (e.g. Nvidia container and Nvidia User Experience Driver Component). I also have the normal Windows background processes such as Windows Defender...

    Low Minimum FPS @ 1080p With High-End Rig

    I actually did set Windows' power settings to High Performance but forgot to mention I did so. I edited my original post to both reflect this and to list my PSU. I just adjusted the BIOS to disable, but haven't tested to see if it impacted performance any since I forgot to do so before checking...

    Low Minimum FPS @ 1080p With High-End Rig

    Crap, I forgot to list my Power Supply. It's a Corsair RMX 750 (750W). As for temperatures, I've monitored them before with MSI Afterburner and didn't see anything out of the ordinary. I'll put exact temperatures when I get back on my machine. Thank you for your help so far.

    Low Minimum FPS @ 1080p With High-End Rig

    I recently built a new PC (specs below) and cannot get a minimum frame rate above 45fps no matter what game I play, with the Redout demo being the sole exception. I understand that some of the games in question (also below) are poorly optimized games or bad ports, but I'd think that my rig...
