My sister has a HP elitebook 8560w with a Nvidia 1000m. It is removable and was thinking of maybe upgrading the gpu because it does have a decent cpu in it. Where can you purchase one and would it be worth it? The CPU is a i7-2760qm and 8gb ram with two empty slots. I know there is a mobile 1050...

Why would a graphics card have a 8 pin plus a 6 pin power connector? Its for the Saphire Nitro+ RX580 and the 1x6 pin says its optional on the website. Never seen this before so just was curious. Second question is would you go with the MSI RX 580 Gaming or the Saphire Nitro+ if they are the...

How can I adjust my fan speeds on the GA-H270N-WIFI motherboard? I have tried SpeedFan and it only shows temps and does not detect the fans and Gigabytes software System Information Viewer just crashes when I try and open it. I have Noctua NF-P14s redux-1500 PWM 78.7 CFM 140mm case fan and...

I did pick an answer already but have come up with another question and instead of starting a new thread I thought I would try and continue this one! I may get a new case since a buddy really wants mine or the same one. A RX480 4gb in Canada I could get for $240 after rebate. For this price...

For the CPU I am debating on getting a i5-7500 or 7600. It is a $40 difference in Canada. Would it be worth the price difference? For the GPU I am going to get a 1060 because I am building in a Elite 110 case so size is a concern. I am debating on brand and 3gb vs 6gb. The Zotac 3gb is $248...

I have a B150I GAMING PRO AC motherboard. I had a stock 120mm fan in my case but thought I would upgrade to Corsair ML140 Pro 97.0 CFM 140mm Fan. The stock fan was a 3pin that max rpm was rated for1200 but was rarely this high. This new one is running constant at 1200 and jumps up to 1500 when I...

Thanks for the info ImmortanMoe. I switched the ram to 1-8GB stick. It is the same price but like you said opens up room for expansion!

Okay thanks the input! I've heard of lots of mixed input on the i3 vs i5 for gaming

Looking at building a budget computer for gaming. Was thinking of building most of it now and than add a GPU in a couple months. What I was thinking was: [PCPartPicker part list](http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/Kgr4M8) / [Price breakdown by...

I would also need to add a wireless network adapter and sound card correct? And how about a fan?
