This is going to echo a post I made about GPU selection: If you're choosing a CPU for 3D modeling and scanning (no gaming), are you going Intel or AMD, and why?
And to follow-up, if you need a processor for the above that is low TDP and low wattage, would that change your decision of CPU maker...
If you're choosing a dedicated GPU for 3D modeling and scanning (no gaming), are you going nVidia or AMD, and why?
And to follow-up, if you need a dedicated GPU for the above that is low TDP and low wattage, would that change your decision of GPU maker? If so, how come?
Essentially, I'm...
Is it me, or does there seem to be a disparity with the availability of motherboards natively supporting DDR5-7200 speeds? I see a glut of DDR5-6400 supported motherboards, but what's the deal with -7200? Isn't -7200 a natively supported speed with current generation mobos, chipsets and CPUs...
What options exist for a small(er) case, like a SFF, but can accommodate standard size ATX motherboards (not E-ATX)?
I don't have a ton of desk space, so I am trying to minimize my PC footprint as much as possible. The case cannot be placed on the floor, and given the option, I would rather...
It's been over 12 years since I last built a PC (currently running an X58 E760, Core i7-750, 780Ti Kingpin) and my PC needs have drastically changed since.
I no longer game, but I am gearing towards productivity (3D modeling and scanning). I have 70% of the parts picked out, but I'm stumped as...
Selling my gently used EVGA GTX 780Ti Classified Kingpin Edition videocard. Never overclocked, always ran stock. Comes with original box and all accessories. In excellent condition, and meticulously taken care of. In 100% working condition and comes with back plate installed. Any questions...
What kind of performance gains/increases will I see if I upgrade from two EVGA GTX 780Ti Kingpins in SLI to a single GTX 1080? Will the difference truly be night and day?
Looking for advice and/or recommendations on what Intel platform I should upgrade to for gaming. I am currently using an Intel Core i7-950 (Bloomfield) CPU based on the EVGA Classified E760 X58 LGA1366 platform.
I'm not necessarily looking for bleeding edge tech, but I am trying to find the...
What does everyone use for recording their desktop screen? I'm using FRAPs, and not really happy with it.
Curious to see what everyone uses for capturing video on their desktop.
Thanks!
I am thinking about getting an SSD to store my PC games on. At the moment, I have a 300GB WD Raptor that is pulling that duty, but is becoming filled up. I was thinking of going with an Intel 535 series 480GB SSD to replace it. Thoughts on this?
And, I guess this might be a bit subjective...
Curious to know the following:
Will a single GTX 780Ti Kingpin run 2K and 4K monitors adequately? What about two GTX 780Ti Kingpins in SLI running 2K and 4K monitors?
There was an awesome site I used that created ad hoc comparison charts for GPUs, and I can't remember what it was.
Does anyone know of a site that does videocard comparisons in chart/table format, and allows you to compare 4-5 GPUs at a time, SLI and non-SLI?
I'd like to upgrade my monitor to something that offers better resolution and graphics display for gaming. I'm currently using a Planar PX2710MW as my gaming display, paired with a single EVGA GTX 780Ti Classified Kingpin videocard.
I'm thinking of either getting another Kingpin for SLI or...
I've been giving some serious thought to making the move from my aging Intel LGA1366 X58 gaming system to something newer. Black Friday/Cyber Monday is around the corner and I'd like to leverage the sales for a new PC build.

Somehow, in the space of a few minutes, I lost about 14GB of storage on my 240GB Intel Series 530 SSD (this SSD has my OS on it). The only thing that changed was the additional RAM I just installed in my PC, upgrading from 8GB (2 x 4GB) to 16GB (4 x 4GB).
The SSD was sitting at 49.7GB of...

For some reason, the USB 3.0 ports on my EVGA Z68 FTW motherboard quit on me. When plugging in my Western Digtial Essentials external hard drive into any USB 3.0 port, I get a power light on the external hard drive, but my OS (Windows 7 64-bit) doesn't bring it up in My Computer. When plugging...
