Re: One System Upgrade For All!

I like your thought path! My old systems always get handed down! If you build them, YOU should always have the Best One sitting at your Desk! Anything else is unacceptable! :) I used to do that but the wife only wants a laptop and the step-kid has her own house and uses her phone for everything.......

Re: One System Upgrade For All!

Always fun to build new systems :)
Pricing has been insane since the covid excuse is still being used to raise prices across the board even though they are making MORE profit so even though I would love to build a new system, I will be waiting.

Re: SSD cooling...

Honestly DJ the only thing I notice with a nvme is the faster load times, especially if you have to load individual levels. Other than that, I think most games are already optimized for standard hard drives and it will be a while till we see something like Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart that would tak...

Re: SSD cooling...

It is middle of the road I would say CrystalDiskMark_20210626102825.png I only have 1 nvme (money tree is just too damn stingy) so like i said, the bottle necks come from the regular hard drives. For storage i would probably stay with a regular hard drive mainly due to cost. 4tb nvme can be $800+ wh...

Re: SSD cooling...

Like they don't cost enough already without adding on expensive extras! Sheesh. I can see water cooling happening for the ones who still build systems. It would be cool to have a clear heatsink/block on the nvme and see the water going through it. I bought a cheaper one a while back when it was on s...

Re: Windows 11....?

With neon production halved by Ukraine stopping their production, chip prices wont drop anytime soon. Throw inflation in there its getting a bit nuts. Odd thing is, laptops don't seem to be effected, except the high end ones with the 3xxx video and such. I thought laptops would skyrocket but still ...

Re: Need help choosing CPU and Motherboard for decent gaming rig

If you're only interested in a single card configuration, a board based on the P35 or the soon-to-be-released P45 chipset would be ideal! Simply because the chipset is getting old, I wouldn't recommend any 680i boards. The E8400 is an excellent choice because it is significantly less expensive than...

Re: Corsair 4000D Airflow...

Isn't it weird! Everything in my head always says the more open it is the cooler it is as it gets more airflow, which is not the case (hah unintended pun).
