Hi there, your depending on the quality of your power supply, 450w should be enough to power all your components, especially the RX 470 :) Soo I'd go for the RX 470 in a heartbeat plus you can upgrade your CPU down the road.

Hi. It took me a while to find my stable overclock, but my i7 6700k is currently stable at 4.5Ghz with adaptive voltage - using 1.325v core with a 0.025v offset. During loads the voltage jumps back and forth between 1.344v and 1.36v, temps are anywhere around 60-70c. During idling the voltage is...

@bwinzey I have a NH-D15 cooler @geofelt Thanks so much for explaining makes more sense now. I suspect that hyper threading has something to do with these temps. Glad to know that it is normal.

Hello there. I'm not too sure why on a loading screen of a game (Such as Dishonored, GTA V etc) my cpu temps skyrocket to the mid 50s. This is strange to me as cpu usage is fairly minimal (10-20%). Um, is this normal behavior for an i7 6700k or cpus in general? I'd appreciate all the help

@Gallarian Thankyou for your answer, I really appreciate the clear steps you provided there. I don't use Steam that often (maybe for CS:GO) - as most of my games I play are located in a folder I created (in "C:Games"). I also have Origin for which I play BF1 and BF4 often. Is there a way to...

Hi there! I plan to upgrade to an 500 GB SSD soon. Is there a way I can keep my games and music on my 1TB HDD so I can play them as normal and just install my OS on the SSD? ..I really don't want to reinstall all my programs/games again. I also don't have an external drive for backing up my...

I'd say go figure with the first build, as you can upgrade to a better CPU down the road..

I have a 620w seasonic psu, was hoping if that's good enough for a 1070 thanks!

Switch to an Intel cpu + motherboard, then you'll be all set..

Hi there- I already have a 970 and was thinking about purchasing another to SLI. Saw a video comparison between 970 SLI and 1070, and it was beating it by a few frames 3 - 4 in every resolution! Should I get another one or just save up for a 1070? Thanks in advance! Also are there any major...

Great PC build! You definitely won't regret it ÷)

Hi, I'm very new to overclocking and computers in general but from what I've read, there are some people who have oc'ed their i5 6600k to 4.5ghz @ 1.3v, whilst others require higher voltages to achieve the same results. Is this a result of having a poorly binned cpu? Thanks in advance. I am...

Ooh ok so it comes to down to personal taste. I'm more a gamer haha, and yeah I'm quickly running out of room on my 1TB hard drive :( i always wondered how fast ssds were and how its affect gaming

They are two completely separate things. One is for overclocking, whilst the other is for those who don't intend to overclock (and dont care)

Hi, as the title states, I was wondering which of the two options is better and why since they both practically cost the same price. Also I am going with a Samsung 850 EVO in both cases. Thank you in advance.
