    Need a few parts for my PC

    My bad...I’m bringing over the PSU, CD/DVD and my 1TB HDD, probably not overclocking but having the option would be nice (I only play overwatch but occasionally I’ll play the graphic intensive game on steam). Would like red LED’s on the case. Would liquid cooling be out of the question? Thank you

    Need a few parts for my PC

    I am running on a build from 2013. The only thing I have upgraded is my video card 2-3 years ago (I have a Zotac GTX 1070) and my SSD. I am getting framerate issues while gaming. I’m pretty sure it’s my RAM. Also I’ll turn on my PC sometimes and the mouse & keyboard will be unresponsive but...

    RX 480 or GTX 1070 with my freesync monitor?

    Lol okay. And you think the extra performance outweighs the loss of freesync? My friend was saying you can download drivers to trick the Nvidia card into using freesync is that true?

    The R9 Fury is $599 and the Fury X is about $650. Doesn't the 1070 crush the R9 Fury tho..? Im currently rocking an ancient ASUS 7970 lol

    Hello - I am upgrading my graphics card this week and I just can't make this decision so I'm hoping some can help me. I have a freesync 1440p Benq monitor and I live in Toronto Canada. I'm so tempted to get an 8GB RX 480 and overclock it so I can utilize freesync. This currently costs $380...

    Im stuck with Freesync and it sucks....suggestions?

    Im stuck with Freesync and it sucks....suggestions?

    Yeah I think I'm going to do this. I was assuming (like most others i imagine) that AMD would be on the same level as Nvidia with this new gen but clearly was very wrong. I originally wanted to just get a 390X but considering how much more powerful a 1070 than it even being on near the same...

    I upgraded my monitor not long ago to the BenQ xl2430t and rocking an ancient ASUS 4970 (R9 280X equivalent I believe) and I want a GTX 1070 so bad. Even though I am stuck with freesync im tempted to still just bite the bullet. Ive done so much research and nothing comes close to the 1070...

    With the JBL's compared to the Swan 2.1 setup, is there that much of a difference? Or does spending the extra $200 make a big impact?

    Hi, I live in Canada and im looking to buy new speakers. I'll mainly be using them for gaming on my PC but I want to know which are recommended and which aren't. Im starting to lean more towards a 2.1 setup but still not opposed to a 5.1 setup Logitech Z906 - They are on sale here for $400...
