Hi guys just a little background. I built my previous PC via Digital Storm 6 years ago and it held up great until the other morning I had built up static on my carpet and touched the power button-> PC would not work any longer. If I pressed the power button it would not respond, when I...
Hello few questions: so my wife recently surprised me and bought me asus swift pg348q, an ultrawide display that runs 3440X1440.
I love the display, but am concerned if my current 970 SLI GPUs will be able to support upcoming titles BF1 and forza horizon 3 above 60 fps. I am contemplating...
I currently own a VP2770, but have heard great things about 21:9 (I am a little worried about support for the aspect ratio but I hear overall it is becoming popular) any thoughts on this part?
With my research I have come across these two monitors, and reading about them, it seems like the...
Hey guys, currently I have 2 gtx 970s, I am looking to buy a new gtx1080, I will not be over clocking the card, will be also purchasing SWIFT PG348Q display which is why I am looking to upgrade. Not sure which version of the video card to buy, and is there a version on the near horizon to wait...
Hi guys, I used to game approx. 7 years ago, and want to get back into it- so just ordered a new gaming PC.. When I was gaming back then people were hesitant to use steam ... general consensus was that this was bloated spyware that took away form PC gaming.
Now, I notice everyone is talking...
man I am getting nauseous reading reviews on all these monitors... but I am glad NCX brought up vp2770... from everything I've read this is the most underrated monitor and best PLS/IPS for gamers at 27"... Think I may pull the trigger on this soon
The only question I have with this display is...
Hi, was wondering if you guys had any input on u2711 vs u3011 for my system. I am open to other suggestions. Thank you in advance for any advice.
I will be primarily gaming (FPS), watching video, and some work which includes reading CT/MRI/ and X-rays.
Am open to other suggestions...
Ok great! Thank you danny bui so much, you have been so helpful... p.s. I checked out Puget systems again, really informative site when researching everything.... I also tried building my system with i7 4770 and the mobo you recommended and it actually was more expensive than the system I built...
which ram speed should I pick 1600 vs 1866 vs 2133... so many conflicting statements out there about ram speed and there is a significant price difference.
Thanks Danny Bui for taking time to respond to my post.
Unfortunately Digital Storm does not have the i7 4770 version as an option.
As far as Motherboards go these are the options- are any of these comparable to z87-A?:
1.) ASUS Sabertooth Z87 (Intel Z87 Chipset) (Features Thermal Armor...
Hi guys I posted a few months ago asking for build help and was advised to wait for Haswell processors to come out- so I am back now. I have quit gaming (mostly FPS) approx 5 years ago but the itch is back. I have done some research on new hardware but would really appreciate any input...
thank you tiraides for your time and advice, you make some good points. As far as computerlx my brother bought his PC from there and was very happy, and they seem to get good reviews. Also considering digital storm, but $500 more expensive for similar PC, not yet sure what I will end up doing.
I wrote a post couple of weeks ago, but kind of started over on my gaming rig. I have not gamed since 2005 and everything has changed, but looking to get back into it. I am not tech savvy and will not be overclocking or building my own rig. Will use computerlx.com to build it as do not have...
I need to do more research on Haswell to decide if I will wait, as far as 27" monitor resolution I would like to play game at highest resolution without compromising performance with GTX 680, that card is within my budget, I don't think at this point I want to invest in SLI.
Other than...
would like the max resolution that I can support with gtx 680.
Love all FPS, so BF 3 and upcoming fps games.
as far as haswell, I can def wait, is it worth waiting for? Concerns for waiting are that it will be overpriced, and do CPU's make that much difference in gaming these days? (I...

Hey I am building my first gaming rig on computerlx.com. Was curious if you guys had any recommendations. I will not be doing any overclocking, I am most worried about SSD choice (I have never had one before on a PC), and case/ cooling I have selected-not sure if I need to buy additional...
