so i hit the printscreen button, i even use alt like a pro... now where should i put it? or what program should i use to paste it into? pasting it into wordpad just looks awful.

If you are on windows 10, win + printscreen saves a screenshot jn your pictures folder.

Snipping tool is better than taking a screenshot.

If you have OneDrive enabled and signed in it automatically saves your screenshots to OneDrive\Pictures\Screenshots as well.

If you've never used it I would highly recommend a free piece of software called Greenshot.

The best screenshot taking tool I've ever used.

Hitting Print Screen pauses the screen, overlays a cursor so you can select what you want to copy, the if gives you a context menu of saving as, saving directly, copy to clip board, opening in a long list of software or directly uploading to Dropbox, Imgur or Photobucket.

Thanx for these tips guys. I am on windows 10 and it is definitely the easiest option. It only for screen shots of some benchmarks before I change my gpu. Firestrike, timespy, heaven and valley etc.

So printscreen and windows button is my choice out of these.
