Hello there, If installing the graphics card isn't a problem for you, then I say go for it! Your current processor does botleneck the GTX 1060, but once you get the new PC up and running it shouldn't be a problem. EDIT: (you'll see a nice bump in performance with the GTX 1060 over the 950)...

Hello there I would personally go for the increased memory. Ryzen sees huge benefits with increased amounts, speeds and channels of ram. Since you already have a hard drive, the larger SSD isn't going to be a huge benefit. Just install the OS and the most important applications onto the SSD...

Hello there! It shouldn't matter too much which card you buy, they all perform in the margin of error from each other. Just buy the one that suits you best, whether that is aesthetically, economically or preference of manufacturer. The only real difference between those two cards are the...

Hello everyone, I was just searching for the QVL for one of Asus' motherboards, when I looked through the supported CPU list, and I saw some unknown CPUs. From what I can tell these seem to be the upcoming APU's for AM4. These have been leaked in the past, but now they're showing up on...

Hello there! That's just an adapter for your power supply should you not have the proper power connectors. Since the card needs two 8-pin connectors, not all power supplies have this. You can however with that adapter turn two 6-pin connectors into an 8-pin connector! But you have a pretty...

Hello there The GTX 650 is actually superior to the 710 in gaming. Average framerate in games is better on the GTX 650 than the GT 710. Keep in mind, that the 650 uses about 65 watts of power, whereas the 710 only needs about 20. Make sure your motherboard and powersupply can support this new...

Hello there! Have you tried looking in the windows settings? In the bottom right, right click on the sound icon and hit playback devices (something like that, my windows isn't set to English at the moment). Select your headphones and start tweaking the settings. Under 'enhancements' you should...

Hello there! That is a pretty decent build. Do as you yourself wish with changing out the CPU. Personally I would rather have the 1500X and use the spare money to get an SSD for faster loading and booting. It might also be better to buy a singe 8GB stick of ram instead of two 4GB sticks. This...

Hello there! After a while of tying to figure out Croatian, I finally managed to put together a build for (about) that sum of money. CPU: R5 1400 (https://www.ekupi.hr/Procesor-AMD-Ryzen-5-1400-1107771.aspx) Motherboard: Asus Prime B350M...

Hello there The 1060 will most likely suit all your needs for the next couple of years, no matter what you plan to play. The 980TI and 1070 perform nearly identically, so just pick whichever you prefer (the 980TI is probably cheaper, but uses more power than the 1070). You could also choose...

Hello there The HDMI connector shouldn't be a problem. The connector is likely HDMI 1.4 or 2.0, which both will be able to run a monitor of that resolution. However, if you plan to play any games you will likely run into issues. That GPU will struggle in some games, but should be able to run...

Hello there The GPU should work with the computer. The card requires very little power, which shouldn't be a problem, even in an older computer like that. If the PC has a PCIe slot (which most computers from the last 10 years do) it shouldn't be a problem. Performance is going to be quite...
