I just bought a Noctua NH-D15s from Amazon, and also picked up the conversion kit for $10, rather than waiting to get one for free from Noctua. Amazon said they wouldn't get the conversion kit to me until later this month, but it actually shipped out way earlier and I should have it in a couple...

Hmmm. I have no interest in VR at all. Do you know if there are a lot of upcoming games that plan to make use of Vulkan?

:eek: That is absolutely ridiculous.

Not to derail the point of this thread, but on a side note- I understand why GPU prices are high, but what's driven up RAM pricing? I remember back when I built my rig I got my 32 gigs of DDR3 for about $160 bucks. What the heck happend with DDR4 that it's double/triple the cost?

I'll admit I used to upgrade my graphics card every other generation prior to my current build, but unfortunately life and other priorities got in the way, and before you know it, time flies, and your graphics card (and rest of your PC) is ancient... :LOL:

I think you guys are actually on the same side of the coin, but looking at it from two different angles- RamonGTP is saying spend a minimal amount now to get the job done for now since any extra power could potentially be wasted at 1080p given the rig I've got atm, and buy the latest and...

Love hearing everyone's viewpoints on the matter. Thanks guys. Now another question- I see a lot of discussion regarding a 1060. If I were to go down that price point ($200-300)- does that seem to be the favored card over a Radeon RX 580? Or is it just brand preference at that point? I assume...

In the future when I build a completely new rig, I will definitely upgrade the monitors, but for now I'm sticking with what I have. It doesn't matter to me whether its new or from the FS/FT forum- I've great experiences buying and selling there in the past. I'm aiming to pick something up after...

Perfect- this is exactly what I needed. Now to figure out which one I want...

Yeah, the CPU has a slight overclock to 4ghz. I suppose it might be time to squeeze more out of it. You are correct- I guess I should have clarified that in a year or so my plan is to get new monitors and go for 4k gaming- I kind of assumed anything available now in my price range probably...

Hey All, As the title suggests, I need help determining if it's worth it to upgrade my aging GTX 670 to one of the current generation GPUs, given the rig that's in my signature. Is there any card that would help me achieve my goals without throwing money away due to bottlenecking? I'm at a...

Does the expansion let you jump straight to act 5? I'm picking up my collector's edition when I get off work this evening, but my current character is a lvl 57 monk in the middle of act 3 on my second playthrough. Hoping I don't have to play through Act 4 again to get to the new content...

I'm in the same boat as OP and also use a Monk currently at level 40 and found this post very useful. Thanks for the tips.

Just want to throw in my 2 cents... I picked up the game yesterday for PS4 and finished the main mission in about 2 hours. This only included completing the objectives and finding only a couple of the collectibles. There's definitely a lot more things to find in this mission. This unlocked...

Not a super hot deal, but I didn't see this posted yet and these keyboards don't go on sale too often. Das is offering $20 off all new keyboards and bags on their website using code XMAS2013. They're also offering free ground shipping with this deal as well and I believe there is no tax in...
