Sorry guys for taking so long to get back to you, but do you guys think it would be worth it to get a cpu/mobo upgrade? Since the 1080 ti didn't come out, I'll probably get the gtx 1080 now. I've read in a lot of forums that the i5 6500 will bottleneck the 1080. I do play mostly cpu intensive...

Hi guys, so I built my first gaming PC around the start of this year, and I am thinking about making some upgrades to it. My hope is to play games at a higher fps and to move from 1080p gaming to 1440p 144hz (and on a ips screen rather than tn). My current build is: CPU: Intel Core i5 6500...

Running games seem to be that only stop these weird lines coming up so thats how i know that it can't really be a...

Hi guys! So I've been having this bizarre problem with my monitor and gpu. I have a temporary fix but it should not be necessary. Monitors: Asus VG248QE 144hz (the problem is much more noticeable on this one) An old 60hz dell monitor GPU: AMD Radeon R9 290 (Sapphire Tri-X) Anyway the problem...

Hi! So I've already made a forum about this and I have come to the conclusion that the fan not turning on seems to be the problem for me. I have never used any of these components before (brand new parts... tried building it last night and couldn't get it finished because of this reason. What I...
