My PC is 6 years old soon. The only part I changed because of necessity are the GPU because it died after 4 years and the CPU cooler because the stock cooler snapped after 5 years.

Still rocking my old i5 2500k OC'd to 4.4ghz, 8GB RAM with a newer nvidia 970. Any mainstream game runs fine. Wide scope PC shit runs like ass as expected though, Arma 3, survival nongames etc.

Still I'm thinking about doing an entire upgrade. The thing about upgrades is there never is a perfect time, much to the upset of autists.

Think I will want the upgrade for emulation mostly (3DS, Wii U, Xbox never ever, PGXP youtube.com/watch?v=EYCpd_1lPUc), running shitty programmed games now and in the future a bit better. And whatever else comes along. Feels like a whimsical idea, but what would people upgrade to in current day of current year? Seems like there must be something to explore these days, maybe VR games and porn?

I'm from bongobongoland so I usually order from;

They're a bit expensive but one of the better companies to deal with.

What's is with the large influx of newfags? It used to be a couple of threads, but now they're fucking everywhere.

That is the point of the subject line,the searching feature probably wouldn't reach that far. Also keywords aren't a thing here.

There are no brakes on this train.

Also >>>/gaschamber/, >>>/sucide/

Halfchan is probably leaking because of some stupid shit. However it is likely that most "refugees" will go back to where they came.

So I was looking at this one mostly. In my head I remember individual core speed was way better than the number of cores jumping from like 4 to 8 because software really needed to programmed to make good use of it and that meant mostly video rendering or shit.

You have to go back

Think this was made clear yesterday:

I use a fucking 10y year old CPU. Intel-Wolfdale2.8Ghz, OC:s to 3.4GHz. And has never failed.

AOL Keyword: Reddit

Building my first PC.
Haven't ordered anything yet but come March 3rd I'll start figuring out where to order my shit.

Any opinions on this build?
I'm not gonna be AAA gaming at max settings. I just wanna be able to play most games at 1080p (or even 720p) at low-medium settings (playing games on high is a plus but not my main goal).

Games pretty much need 4 cores at this point I think.

reading OP made my brain hurt

get an rx 470, its faster.

that cpu has HT so 4 threads.

You should wait for rise

I'd swap that Pentium for a quadcore, either i5 or wait for new amd ryzen quadcore cpus to drop on the market, and change that 1050Ti for an RX 470 or 480.

It's a big jump in price and I already feel like the GTX 1050ti is more than what I need. I only got it because it's just slightly more expensive than an RX 460 in my area (Canada).

I'd probably aim for a Ryzen 3 CPU because it's the closest thing to my price range, but those won't be coming out until what, September?

ryzen quadcores are between 4-10 months out, its silly to wait for that.

It's shit.

Any suggestions for an alternative?
I was originally going to go with the G4560 but I noticed the G4620 wasn't much more expensive.
I will admit I know nothing about Mobos, having never built a PC before.
This is admittedly just because I know I'd personally regret not getting one every time something was slow to load. It's basically just $60 spent on peace of mind because I can't find any better way to spend it.
Can't think of any better alternatives within its price range.
Heard good things about it, figured it might last an upgrade or two, and it isn't much more expensive than the alternatives (which is where quality starts coming into question).

It doesnt hurt to wait how everything turns out

I have one of those 4ghz AMDs, like an 8-core for like 150. Also your 8gb ram seems kinda expensive because I went full retard and wound up with 32gigs and it only cost like $100.

Your setup it pretty solid as you yourself admit. There's not much point in upgrading currently because there are no games even the survival nongames you mentioned. Maybe you should check on your monitors and audio system. That's something a lot of people tend to neglect due to all the focus on the GPU and "core" PC components and that's a huge chunk of your quality of experience right there. A quality monitor might be more important than a GPU once you hit a certain framerate and I'd say as low as 30. That's how much it impact visual quality. Audio might be the biggest thing of all since quality audio can cost more than your whole system but it changes immersion and quality of gaming tremendously.

Pretty much everything I've heard about those CPUs (specifically the FX 8350) is that they look good on paper but just don't perform when actually put up to the test.

It's about $20 more than it should be because


I've been relying on an old gaming laptop to be my quasi-desktop for a while and now it's struggling just to run two instances of Firefox.
I like to think of myself as patient but I'm not gonna sit around with my thumb up my ass until H2 2017 just because "Hey, maybe it won't be too far outside my budget."


I have been using Logical Increments.
Pretty much everything in my build is taken from the Fair tier with the GPU being a step above.

i7 920 2.6 ghz oc'd to 4 ghz

I bought a new pair of headphones with a DAC a couple of months ago and I'm pretty safisfied with what it does. I ventured into buying a $1000~ surround sound a few months ago but it was just too loud for our old European homes.

Monitor is the BenQ XL2720Z. Best for refresh rate, response time and value for money I could find.

It's all good, I just need that extra push for newer emulation. It's not that I play many games these days, it just gives me a lot of options to sperg and eventually I find that game or three a year that I do emulate and finish was ass smacking quality. I'm even of the mind to cancelling my Nintendo Switch preorder to buy the new PC and emulate the WiiU version instead.

Too much money, too little time.

I built a budget gaming PC at the start of 2014.

I'm now upgrading the R9 200 to an RX 480 and replacing the stock cooler with an 120 fan for my FX 6300. I'm sticking with my 500w PSU. How high do you think can I overclock it? I don't feel like spending $150 for an FX 8350.

The election and Trump. the_Donald and 4cuck brought in a lot of newfags. This is the exact reason why there are so many, Holla Forums is the board with the most newfags at the moment.

Reddit invented this thread

What the fuck is this.

Shit sucks. Can't watch all my films, TV and anime. Can't play vidya without bad freezing every minute. Can't even reliably transfer some stuff to a new HD as its a gamble of getting a BSOD or not.

Its doubly worse as I'm NEET as fuck so can't replace it.

how long do hdd drives usually last

They all vary. Got about four and a half years out of mine though.

2500k is still giving relevant performance, something like a gtx770 still giving relevant performance. You don't NEED to upgrade yet. These two parts are at bottom of benchmark lists but they still haven't dropped off completely.

The list I made is a comfy template and would serve most people well. Everybody's use case is different though.

tbf it doesn't necessarily look like reddit spacing like this…

tbqh, I would just drop down to the 470 in that case, or spend the extra money on the 8gb version (which does actually have tangible benefits). The 4gb 480 is in a weird position for price

I've had a 2500k was thinking of upgrading it to one of the new raisin cpus. Would the 1700x be enough of a upgrade or should I get the 1800x?

keywords: doubles digits repeating numbers

Wait for reviews to see how far the 1700X can OC compared to the 1800X. The clocks are pretty low compared to the most relevant Intel CPUs for gaming (7600K and 7700K), which can pretty easily hit 5GHz. From what we've seen leaked, IPC on Ryzen appears pretty similar to Kaby Lake, so it genuinely is a matter of how far you can push the CPU in terms of speed, since a lot of games are more clock-limited than thread limited. Indeed, the only game which seems thread limited that's commonly benchmarked is Watch Dogs 2.

If you're going to get a 27" monitor get one with a better resolution, 1080 kinda maxes out around 24". Also why the fuck would you buy windows 10?

Because its cheaper than windows 7

Thinking of getting a 1060 which one should i get.

...

Fair. I always wanted an AMD cpu but none of them seemed worth it.

Pretty basic way of showing what the thread is about. I would have done probably included those words in a clever sentence but OP is a man who is right to the point.

Micro$hit doesn't deserve your money, m8. Just torrent a rom to your USB then boot from it and use Das Loader.

So? Just make a USB boot of win 7

The only AMD CPU that was worth it for a long time was the FX-6300, and arguably the 860K. However, that was only because they inhabited the right price points when the low-end Intel CPUs hadn't caught up yet. The Pentium G3258 and the Skylake i3 processors completely destroyed any reason to own an AMD CPU. AM3 was a crazy old platform anyway.

This is also a good point. For the price, I'd much rather go for a smaller IPS panel (Asus VS248H-P) or even jump up the extra $25 to a Korean 1440p IPS monitor (QNIX QX2710, for instance).

terrible time to build a pc for the cpu and mb, user
also, buy intel used, never new– you shouldn't have to ask why that is

I don't have half a year to wait for Ryzen 3 to come out. I'll get what works for me now and if AMD decides to actually release things on time instead of delaying the budget CPUs in the hopes that people will impatiently buy the more-expensive ones then maybe I'll actually buy them.

This is like the extreme opposite of those instances in which someone makes a thread, but doesn't include a single related word that would make it show up in a catalog search so your wind up with multiple threads about the same shit.

OP went overboard, but it's better than having a bunch of threads about the same topic. People find excuses to be bitchy when the alternative (multiple threads about the same shit) would make them even bitchier.

I've had my 10 year old hdd disconnected since start of last year cause mobo Sata port seems dead or something. Other hdd are 6 to 8 years. Depends on luck.

It's just looking for a solution to a not-problem. We already have ways to name threads, typically a game-related or specific fandom related thread will be named after it so you can just search a portion of the word and still find it, I don't need to add the Kingdom Hearts keyword, or the disney one, or one for ARPG when making a KH thread because I just name it that and people know what it is. This keyword shit is pretty web 3.0 too, if you're new it's okay to fuck up but just realize imageboards are some of the few places that still care about an inner "culture" within their communities.
