    Looking for upgrade guidance

    hey all OP here. after this thread and watching few videos I decided to buy the Microcenter 7800x3d bundle with the 7900XT. It was just under $1300 and the card/rig runs cyberpunk 2077 with RT ultra at 1440p ultra just fine. most times around 70fps, sometimes 60, sometimes 80 but with vsync it's...

    Looking for upgrade guidance

    I fell off gaming for awhile but am back. I have a i6700k I bought new and a 1080yi I bought open box for about $550 I think when the 2000 series was the new thing. I have no idea what the CPU market is for gaming these days so need advice. I did check out the GPUs and am considering AMD...

    If I put a TPM module in my gigabyte z270 can install windows 11 even though I have an i6700k? Or does TPM need to be in the CPU

    cool Thanks let me try this first. Hope it works. All I do on this machine is play games and browse the web. Nice knowing me :-)

    ok. I haven't read a lot but did read some posts that said there was crashes and instability without TPM on older CPUs but that could have been with pre-GA builds.

    NAS Storage Recommendations

    I only have 1 in a mirror. My storage needs aren't big but I'd definitely want more storage if i upgraded as i find myself deleting some stuff to stay under 1TB. non one uses this system except me. They are also 7200 RPM drives so I assume If I went to 5400 I can still max 1GB with just me using...

    NAS Storage Recommendations

    yeah i'm on a 1Gb network. Standard home setup. Drive age is the main reason i'm considering this. Freenas is reporting bad sectors on one of the drives in my mirror and these things are old. I don't even remember when i bought them. 10 years?

    What's the current state of hardware and gaming in terms of hardware?

    I've been gaming a long time and have not upgraded my i6700K since it came out in early 2016. I've upgraded my card a few times and am now with a 1080Ti but i remember upgrading every 2 years max back in the day. Even at 1440p gaming it feels like faster CPUs just aren't that important anymore?

    NAS Storage Recommendations

    Hi i'm running a freenas server with SAMSUNG HD103UJ I've had for god knows how long. 10 years? These are the specs http://www.testhdd.com/Samsung-SpinPoint-F1-Desktop-Class-HD103UJ-hard-drive-1-TB-SATA-300-3340.html If it worth upgrading the drives to get more transfer speed? I am thinking...

    Just Cause 4 is free on epic

    is it me or is this game a steaming pile compared to JC3. I loved JC3. Performance also looks crappy even at 90fps

    Is the XB271HU Still considered a good monitor for the money? It’s 4 years old now

    Thanks. my XB270HU died and the 271 seemed like the next best deal. I was hesitant to buy the same brand twice after the former dying but I did spend 1000s of hours on that monitor over 5 years.
