    4 or 2tb ssd for ps5

    It’s for my sons. Trying to figure out if 2 is plenty or will I regret. They don’t have any ps5 games currently. Thx for the heat sink recommendation. They charge a pretty penny for those but I’ll pick that up.

    Which mb for 7950x

    all input is welcome. im probably going to wait until the 7800x3ds come out bc i believe (possibly mistakenly) that the 7900x and 7950x will drop a tiny bit or the combo will include a higher mb. I dont actually have a budget so its not a big deal if i dont get the best deal but want to make a...

    Which mb for 7950x

    thank you for the very detailed response i guess when i look at the microcenter site, it appears to have just that specific MB with the 7950x as a combo and by combo i mean the processor, MB, and ram. https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/bundle-and-save.aspx now i could just get the combo...

    Which mb for 7950x

    I am soon going to buy either a 7900x or 7950x combo deal from micro center. Currently it’s bundled with ASUS X670E-PRO PRIME WIFI Is there a better mb such that it’s better to forgo the sale instead?

    7950X vs 7950X3D, which one and why?

    Given the micro center combo prices, I’m thinking 7900x is the way to go. I’m guessing the combo deals won’t initially exist for x3d

    thanks for the suggestion. i just made it happen by running new world. when i tab out to windows, it is slow to open the windows. it unfortunately did not change anything. I have 64 gig of memory so im hard pressed to believe its a memory issue. Looking at HWM neither the cpu or the gpu...

    I occasionally get this issue where the mouse lags on screen and I can’t figure it out. All temps for 5900x and 6900xt are good. I have two 4K monitors and this happens most commonly after a wake up but resolves with reboot

    lag running windows and games

    So I made sure to update the chipset drivers, video card etc The problem onky occurs after waking from hibernation. Everything runs fine on initial boot up or a restart. If I try to even hit ctcl alt del, it takes like 10 seconds for it to appear on the screen.

    I guess I don’t understand why the 1000 although gold isn’t better given the above comments that there is minimal difference between titanium and gold?

    maximum speed i can get over cat 53

    I doubt he actually “need it” The cost from 1 gig to 2.5 is minimal at the moment from att so I was thinking about it. Will there be any benefit in common usage? Will my kids have an advantage in whatever video game or more importantly will I since I need an advantage.

    maximum speed i can get over cat 53

    Thanks so pretty much all the older gigabit switches don’t really go over 1 gigabyte vs the cat 5e which wasn’t originally designed but can typically do it over more reasonable runs

    maximum speed i can get over cat 53

    i have att fiber and most of my house is cat5e. Using speedtest.net i can get around 900 up and down on a good day. ATT now offers like 2.5 gB speed and im trying to figure out if i could possibly obtain speeds higher than i have currently. My current setup is for the fiber to go to the att...

    lag running windows and games

    Im not sure why this is happening but on a regular occasion especially after the computer wakes from sleep, i have ridiculous lag with the mouse. Ive also notice a substantial lag in games and cant figure out why? I dont seem to be using more than 50% of my resources via task manager ever and...

    should i upgrade my cpu to match my 6800xt?

    ill probably just wait for the new amd chips to release in a few weeks. hopefully the 5900x will go on sale. i need that, a motherboard, cooler, a psu, and another windows to complete parts i have already.

    should i upgrade my cpu to match my 6800xt?

    i sort of have an extra 6800xt at the moment my "main computer" is a 6900xt with a 5900x. I decided to put this in an older system that was running a 970. My impression without benchmarks is the games played on this system by the kids like war thunder arent any different but maybe im wrong...

    should i upgrade my cpu to match my 6800xt?

    I have a red devil 6800xt in a system with an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz , 16 GB memory, and SSD HDs. Is it worth it to upgrade the CPU and motherboard for gaming at 1440p?

    best connection for 4k monitor

    This monitor has USB ports and I’m thinking but not sure that the only way to access them is if I use DP and then connect the usb-c to my motherboard (not to the video card). Yes it’s 60 hz at 4K. Decided not to splurge on higher at this size with 4K. I’m thinking of getting another one or a...

    best connection for 4k monitor

    i purchased the lg 4k ultrafine ergostand monitor from costco and am pairing it with a 6800xt. it comes with a usb-c cable but not a display port cable. would it be better to use the included cable or a DP cable for best performance?

    Best card/adapter to pair with bgw210 with 1gig speeds

    I am using att fiber with near 1 gig at the router. It’s in a small apartment and I’m considering adding a newer WiFi card to the computer hoping for improved speeds (300 currently). Is that likely and if so what card to use. Currently using on board WiFi.

    best you can expect from powerline?

    The apartment has two Ethernet jacks, one in each bedroom. I guess I’m hoping they are properly terminated on that end and for whatever reason this end wasn’t finished?

    AMD Ryzen 9 5900X Temp Average

    AMD Ryzen 9 5900X Temp Average

    Thx I’m not sure what I can realistically expect though certainly the temps arent high enough to cause a crash. Not sure how to know if throttling occurs. thinking of changing the cooler fans to noctura ones bc I hear the accompanying fans
