    Well overdue upgrades

    Ordered up the 3080 gpu and the Ram for now, will see how it handles it and go from there. My current rig is a few years old. Mainly play Tarkov and FPS like that which is pretty Ram heavy so an upgrade from 16 to 32 should help. Thanks for the help guys

    Well overdue upgrades

    Sounds like I could save a fair bit of money if I dial it back a little. The PC itself is literally used for gaming and shopping when the wife gets on it Gone are the days where I spend hours editing photos of cars now. I’m gonna have to make up two different set ups and bench them, see if I...

    Well overdue upgrades

    Mmm that’s something to think about then, I thought with a new gpu and cpu that the motherboard would just be a big bottleneck on my system. I wouldn’t mind keeping my Mobo and going for the x3d instead like you mentioned, the only reason I didn’t choose it in the 1st place was keeping money...

    Well overdue upgrades

    Well guys it’s been a while since I last posted, and my last post was about upgrades too, which obviously didn’t go ahead, life, cars and covid. But I’m here again with a long overdue upgrade wanted/needed, put together a little list of what I have now and what I would like to purchase. Any help...

    Help. Out of my depth

    It’s a small world when you get into forums like this, I’m from Kirk Merrinton lol. I was in exactly the same position as you a year or so ago, I’m a mechanic by trade so always like to try my hand and watched a lot of videos. I would suggest you get a clean space out the way of any children or...

    Future upgrades

    I wouldn’t be paying anywhere near Samsung’s prices for an SSD any time soon, but it’s something to definitely look into. It’s basically just to keep me busy tinkering and changing things up. I’ll wait for the new CPU and GPU prices to drop a bit, but in the mean time I’ll keep my eyes peeled...

    Future upgrades

    yeah I like the look of that cooler, at the minute I’m liking the idea of keeping it all stealth and clean, so I think that cooler is a defo on the list. I usually play FPS games and at the minute it handles the likes of cod and stuff a dream. Think I’ll go for proper upgrades after Christmas...

    Future upgrades

    No it’s not struggling with anything I’m playing at the minute. I’m just looking to tinker lol, it’s either I spend a few quid on the PC or spend a lot of money on my car instead I’d look at a new gpu but I don’t fancy being in bidding war until the market dies down unless I go for something...

    Future upgrades

    Afternoon peeps, Just after some opinions from people with a lot more knowledge than me, I built a PC just over a year ago. Was a cheap build just to get my toes into the water before the new gen consoles came out, I don’t plan on buying either of the new consoles. Just wondering what I can...

    B450 ok to buy now

    Yeah I paired mine with the 3600, like I say it runs like a dream, and its handled everything Ib thrown at it over the weekend, but in all honesty I think il upgrade it at the earliest chance I get. Cyberpunk is a must!!!!

    B450 ok to buy now

    Personally, if you can wait it out I would. I bought the b450 board without seeing any of the posts stating the problems people were having, luckily for me I managed to be one the lucky ones to scrape through the net. It runs like a dream now, but knowing the problems I could have had, and could...

    Well..... it's safe to say I'm up and running, flashed with bios18 and it worked like a charm so I'm happy with that. Didnt have to do a full strip down so thats a bonus too. Only bad news to come from it all is the amount of time its going to take me to download all the games Thanks so much...
