I am building a PC for a 16 year old, and it will be their first gaming PC ever, the budget is £650, but the build below is £726. As a great uncle, I will chip in to make it a great build... The only components I am not sure about are the motherboard and the CPU, if I can get feedback on the...
@SpyderTracks @Martinr36 Sorry to bother you guys again, but since the RTX 3080 Ti is coming out, will it be worth it for me to get the Ti over the normal 3080 in my case? Budget is not an issue, but will it be worth it for the display I have to get the Ti instead? Again, thank you for your time.
Nice, good to hear that I am making a reasonable purchase from you, that makes me feel a bit better about it...
I will never go back to single monitors again... My next expansion, if required, is a two stack of the same monitor, and after that a 3 stack :)
Thank you for your help. You have...
Great! Thank you very much for double checking it.
I am a researcher in data science (artifical intelligence, deep learning), and I also game now and again. I have the Samsung LC49RG90SSUXEN 49" Curved LED Gaming Monitor. The reason why I want to upgrade the GPU is not so much because of the...
If I remember correctly, when I chose the case, it said that you can take off some of the hard drive bays to fit an extra long GPU, which I am assuming they are referring to an instance like this. However if you are double checking it, that would be greatly appreciated!
I just saw that you are...
Ok cool, so now it just comes down to actually me getting my hands on an RTX 3080... I know my motherboard is PCI3 but the GPU is PCI4, however, after looking online, it does not impact performance significantly. So I just need to get a new power supply. Am I correct to coming to that conclusion?
Ok yes that makes sense. I will definetly change to a modular power supply in that case. If I understand it correctly, choosing a power supply isn't a big deal as long as you choose the correct power, so it just comes down to which brand and price? Or is there somethings I need to look out for?
Thank you for tagging some people that will help further! I know very little about power supplies, but I know there are modular and non modular power supplies, I don't know which one is mine, I think the one I have is not modular, so is the one you suggested not modular? I would rather stick to...
I got my PC built from PCSpecialist a long time ago, so some of my components such as the motherboard and the power supply are old. Below I have left my current desktop specs, will I be able to just swap my GTX 1060 with the RTX 3080 with no problems? Or do I need to change the motherboard or...
But if there is a problem, I can easily contact Amazon to get a refund. If there is a problem with the GPU, will I see that just from using it initially, or will the problem appear over time?
Hello Oussebon, I hope you are still here. So following our conversation if you want to read it. I have just found an RTX 2080ti used in very good condition for £780, what do you think of getting that instead?
So I want to buy an RTX 2080ti, I found two that are used in very good condition, but I don't know which one to go for.
There is the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2080 Ti OC Edition for £880
and ZOTAC ZT-T20810F-10P NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080Ti GAMING TRIP for £780
Is it worth paying the extra £100...
Thanks for the nice reply. Yes that is the monitor.
I am leaning towards the 5700 right now, but I really don't want to buy a new GPU after a very long time after this, so do you suggest paying the extra £100 for future proof, or to extend the time until I have to get a new GPU? (By getting the...
Well I bought it mainly for productivity. Before I had a 2 normal monitor setup, I got to the stage where I needed 3, so it was either getting a third monitor, or get an ultra wide. I decided to go for the ultra wide, and it is working out perfectly as it is doing great for me!
I knew I wanted...
I recently bought the Samsung 49 inch 1440p ultrawide monitor. I currently have a GeForce 1060 6GB GPU. I can run most games at high settings above 60+ FPS at normal resolution 2560 x 1440. However, when I make it full screen on the ultra wide monitor (5120x1440) , the FPS drops significantly to...
I want a desktop that will do everything I throw at it. I do lots of variaty of things, Graphics Design, Video editing, Programming, Game Development, and also some gaming (BF1 & COD).
I built this PC and I think it is very good, but I don't know about the motherboard, graphics card, and the...
