Running a 2014 i7, and it’s okay. Even fine for the gaming I do these days. Paired with a GPU that’s also pretty old - 1070 Ti. Will probably...
So that’s the plan. A very quiet PC that can handle multitracked audio production, some light gaming, and assorted other tasks. Not that familiar...
Haha yeah, it’s taken me a while. :p Who knows, when I do this there might be DDR5 up for grabs. In which case I’ll do that.
I’m thinking making the leap to DDR4 (lol) partly because of this game coming out. Probably going Ryzen 3750 or better, 32GB, NVMe .. and...
Picked up a nice laptop for someone, 2nd hand, running win7. They would prefer win10. Are they in luck? As in, for free? Thanks.
So, for reasons that are not reasonable, I do in fact need another monitor, one that can sit at the bottom of its stand or thereabouts, so that...
I’ll be getting into some multitrack recording, which can be very thread-intensive, or so I understand. But yeah, if not for that, I’d probably...
Been tempted to pull the trigger on a Ryzen or even TR myself too. Currently still got a DDR3-based Intel 4C/8T setup. 8C/16T or higher is looking...
So cute, for $150 I’m almost tempted, ‘just because’. Not really my kinda thing though. Lines up with the PS2 and PS3 I still own, I guess. :p
Fucking lol, those Australian 2070 prices...
Looks like it, yeah. 12nm refresh of Polaris, pretty soon. Navi is a long way off, sadly. I guess gutting your consumer GPU section has some side...
About $150 more would get you a pretty nice 4k 32” monitor (VA if you like) from a reliable brand. I would pay the extra, personally.
^ Not shabby. Also, gotta say, the price for the 1080ti at release looks real damn good now, by way of comparison.
Hm. Okay, thanks. So, what kinds of GPU for that, and do you know what the mode in question is called? I suppose there is no getting around the...
How good are 4k monitors, typically, at displaying 1080p content? I mean, yes I know they can all do that thing, but apparently some are better...
Well, I’m still using Dell at home, but yeah, if I was buying now (also, when it’s time to upgrade), I’d probably go for some other brand. So...
What PsychoSmiley said. As for GPU, it probably doesn't matter too much. Pick one you like, that isn't too recent/powerful (because that would be...
Anyone have any experiences or observations to share about this laptop? Someone I know just needs a decent laptop for casual use (including...
If they can compete at the "middle", I think that will be enough to keep them going for a while. That surely must be where an awful lot of...
:thumbup: Good to hear. I'm not a fanboy of any company out there, but I do consider competition to be very important.
