    Help in finding out if a new CPU cooler will help my setup

    So, I have a GTX 750Ti and a C2Q Q8400 running on a shitty zebronics mobo that can't OC. My setup is CPU limited, to a very annoying extent. I can use any GPU settings in CSGO but the FPS does not change a bit. Recently when I was running some benchmarks I noticed that in Unigine Heaven, my CPU...

    I need help choosing a CPU for pure gaming performance!

    Aaaah, another addition to the PCMR For pure gaming performance, Intel is still better because of it's stronger individual cores In my opinion, your best option is an i5 7400/7500 because they provide the most bang for the buck Ryzen is suitable if you want to dabble into video editing as well...

    Are passive cooled GPUs a good idea in a case with no case fans?
