I am currently in the market for a new main gaming monitor. I currently have a VG279QM which is 27" IPS 280hz 1080p. I am searching for a 1440p 27" monitor, but I am looking to improve my color clarity and smoothness of gameplay. I have seen a lot about the PG27AQN (IPS 27" 360hz) and...

Cool man I appreciate it! Would you recommend that cooler over the last cooler you recommended? (the be Quiet dark rock pro one)

Hey man, question for you! I saw this bundle deal on newegg, I was wondering if it was worth it. I don't know the difference between the B650 and B650E, so I was hoping to gather some insight. Won't let me post a picture but here's a print screen screenshot of the newegg bundle...

Oh shit! Hahaha I have a i7-10700k I should probably update that. For some reason I was deadset in my memory that I had a 7700k.

Thanks I'll take a look at these! What are the odds that these components get a price drop on newegg for example come cyber monday? Do mainstream products like these actually get discounts? (just curious not a real necessity) and it is insane to me how cheap good ram is nowadays. I remember...

Quick question here- Just to give some background I play competitive games like CS2 a lot, but I also like playing a lot of the newer AAA games and enjoy having high performance with high quality still. I recently (few months ago) upgraded my GPU to a 4070ti, and I feel like the rest of my...

I gotcha, thanks for the detailed explanation. Makes it easier to comprehend the actual reason for upgrading things, lol. Since he’s mentioned that I’ve been scrolling for some good CPU’s. Internet recommends for the 4070ti intel-wise something like the i7-12700k/13700k. Worth budgeting for the...

Any Recommendations for this setup? I looked for a bit, seems I have to upgrade my motherboard and then ram to DDR5 too to achieve that, which sucks. Gettin real pricey lol

Score is about 700 points below the average but I expect that’s normal and not enough to cause issues like this, so it looks like processor is fine too, just not good enough performance to handle the GPU

Going to look a Going to check this now

I hear ya, that makes sense. I’ve been trying to figure out why it wasn’t matching my performance in games… I just now removed the 2x4gb ram’s and it actually looks like it’s using the GPU more and getting fps that makes sense. Im really surprised just removing those actually made a difference...

I got a 12957 score on superposition on 1080p extreme. Looks like it was indeed utilizing my GPU... and that is with the 24gb mix-matched RAM in my system. Not really sure how great it is considering its pairing near 3080ti's with similar processors but I don't really know the differences anymore

Yes nvidia control panel says the gpu and driver version 531.79.

Okay, I’ve done that. Used DDU, reinstalled the latest nvidia driver with clean install, rebooted. Currently have a gpu benchmark Downloading. While I’m waiting, I’ve noticed my msi afterburner says “Microsoft basic display adapter” and on cyberpunk, 0% of my GPU is used while my CPU is getting...

Understood. What is the easiest way to have a clean install now that the newest drivers are already installed? And I will look into how to update the bios to do it right if the driver install doesn’t do the trick. Is 16gb enough for most games we’ve got nowadays? But yes they’re all same speed...
