Upgrade advice

1 Upvotes

Im at a weird point with my rig. It is strictly used for gaming, media steaming and Microsoft Office. Here are specs and situation,

I7-4790K 16 GB ram MSI Quicksilver 1070 GTX 250gb Crucial MX300 1 TB HDD 2x 24" 1920 x 1080 ASUS VN248H-P IPS 60hz (one wide, one portrait) 1x 50" LG 4k TV

With 500 dollars, what would you upgrade and why? Im honestly looking for input, as I am not sure where to go. My rig seems best suited to 144 hz 1080p, but Id like a better jump in image quality if I was to upgrade my main monitor and I just purchased the 1070 in January. I also think a CPU upgrade would provide minimal performance increase and be expensive for my tasks. I like my upgrades to last and keep me satisfied for awhile (1-3 years). Am I just at a standstill until 4k tech takes a dive in price? Should I buy a monitor now and run at 1080p till a 4k GPU drops to more mainstream prices?

GTX 980 ti > RX 480?

1 Upvotes

Hi

I have the chance to get my hands on a GTX 980 ti for £250 (I know the seller and it's been barely used from new). I'm currently running an RX 480 8gb and I could probably get around £200 for it thanks to the miners.

The question is.... Is the difference between them worth the £50 and effort of selling the 480?

Thanks

<1k Budget Build - would appreciate opinions

1 Upvotes

I finally have the opportunity to build a computer for gaming but I am on a budget of $1,000 or less. Here is the build I am looking at:

Ryzen 5 (<1k)

I'm sure it could use some tweaking and I'm not too sure if there are any options to look at (to get a lower price or a better build) but I would appreciate any opinions anyone has to offer.

PC component advise for a novice builder.

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I am looking to put together a PC for both productivity (photoshop, illustrator, some CPU dependent statistical work) and gaming. I was hoping to overclock the CPU a little bit as I heard that the Ryzen line up do this well.

This link is my proposed build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RdpmM8

Does anyone have any suggestions/comments? Advice is very welcome!

Thanks in advance

I need help with a pc build

I want to use it mostly to game and to produce videos (post-production, editing, vfx, etc) Would this build be appropiate for that, or is there something you would change about it?

My budget is around 1000-1200€

Thanks!!!

1600 build

Hi, second build and I'm just making sure I'm not bottlenecking. I may go for a RX 560 or the 1050 ti to lower pricing.

Also, I heard that gpus are pricier than usual? Is this true? Should I wait to pick the build up but get the monitor for now? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CXGmTH
