TOPIC: New PC specs

Glitched wrote: Yes, AMD Processors are really good at Overclocking but they will need a bunch of cooling if you're going to overclock so they won't kill themselves. Also You got a really good GPU and 1tb Hdd. 8gb RAM is good, if you only got the RAM for Gmod you would only need 4GB because GMod is 32bit game

These are my PC specs
2x AMD Radeon HD 5570 1GB Since I have 2 it is 2GB + They are in Crossfire
ASUS Z-97 A Motherboard
Intel i3-4360 CPU
16GB of Corsair Vengeance RAM
750W PSU
I can't remember my fans I have four of them. They are Coolermaster Brand.
2 OS's Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit and Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
1TB Seagate HDD
I got this for about $700.00 USD
My next PC is going to be around $3k USD

CPU I would recommend is the i7-4790k its the best one int eh world and is very cheap[/quote]
Why the heck does VRAM and GDDR matter that much to you? Also please don't recommend an i7 CPU together with a 750 Ti.




Ok, ok maybe he wants to play a very graphical intense game GDDR5 is the fastest VRAM. GTAV for example when your going thru the Graphical settings it will say how much VRAM is available the better, more demanding settings will raise that bar and when that bar is full and you play it will lag, but if you keep it low and adjust it, it will not lag or kill your FPS. Don't even say I know nothing from computers.

thanks for the HBM thing, I'll look into that later.

No HBM isnt AMD XD Shows how much you know

It would also be lovely if you could sod off here, I'm trying to help. I'd say something else if I wasn't in the staff team, but you're seriously going on my nerves.

Suggestions:

• Go for the 4690k, since you have a CPU cooler and you can't overclock a non K-series CPU OR you can go and get the 4690 if you don't trust yourself with overclocking.


• Remove the CPU cooler if you aren't going to follow my suggestion above, since you don't need a CPU cooler with a non-overclockable CPU. The stock cooler should be enough.


• Why are you going to buy a Micro ATX board? I suggest going ATX, since you're getting an ATX case either way.


• I suggest going with a +600W PSU so you'll be ready if you ever decide to upgrade to a more power-hungry card. I've also got the 750 Ti right now and a 650W PSU because I'll probably upgrade when I've got the money.


• I suggest going with a more worth-while case like the Corsair Carbide 300R if you're looking to upgrade your rig in the future and not just scrap it and build a completely new one. It also has one intake and one exhaust fan with it so you don't have to buy aftermarket fans. Also, fan filters.

Upgradable is the way to go.

(I probably messed some things up above)

I'll think about it.

Updated.

A 750W PSU is a bit overkill. 600-650W is more than enough for let's say a GTX 970.
