Bwenfwake#6869: seems fine when doing stuff but every now and agin my PC's displays will just cut out
Bwenfwake#6869: It's really bugging me and I'm fed up with it
SuSSudio#2688: I've got thoughts, with DDR5 around the corner, considering its frequency speed, will it reduce the need of bigger ram capacity?
Bwenfwake#68... |
JustinXenyx#8854: but for 2GB sticks that is way too expensive in my opinion
JustinXenyx#8854: like, a 4x4 kit would technically be better in every way, especially overclocking
JustinXenyx#8854: the more RAM sticks you have the worse your RAM oc gets

Budget#8265: and the PSU doesnt
Budget#8265: (very odd for any modern-ish psu not too)
JustinXenyx#8854: i doubt it is modern-ish @Budget
Budget#8265: Cause the motherboard and CPU will work with jist the 4pin from the PSU
Miljan#7510: Yeah it isn't modern
Budget#8265: Right
Budget#8265: Well itll work
Budget#8265: But... |
Miljan#7510: R5 2600x
Yannikau#9606: Like a 2700X, 3900X, 3950X etc.
Yannikau#9606: Yeah, should run fine. But he should get a new PSU asap
Budget#8265: What PSU actually is it?
Miljan#7510: No clue

JustinXenyx#8854: It has a 1050Ti and i doubt that was an upgrade

1. The PSU will likely blow up at some point and take out the system. Its a Russian Rebrand of a PSU called ACE which is renown for killing systems
2. You can power an 8Pin Mobo with a 4Pin CPU Connector....

En/decompressing/en/transcoding is probably not what'd you expect in a very old cpu like C2Q. While it does 'quick' enough in smaller files, it struggles with bigger files. could take up several mins or even hours to finish up.
You wouldn't want to render with this cpu either, same reason as above. Unless if you get... |
Muse#0557: Wouldn't a 7770 be a much better option for that price bracket

JustinXenyx#8854: It's more like a dual core with hyperthreading to simplify it
JustinXenyx#8854: And it's not a very good dual core with hyperthreading.
SLJ#9246: Oh man, I see
JustinXenyx#8854: And GTA V is notorious for annihilating lower end dual cores and lower end hyperthreaded dual cores, especially with the new... |
JustinXenyx#8854: It's just the hardware that was barely capable of running it in 2015 that got smashed pretty badly

JustinXenyx#8854: Also: How did HL:A run on the 3GB 1060? Any major issues with that? @SLJ
CaptainFlanger#2563: GTA online is ridiculous. Especially the Diamond Casino.
JustinXenyx#8854: how much RAM do you have? Cause that might have helped the 3GB 1060 aswell by offloading VRAM into regular system RAM

JustinXenyx#8854: lol, but still
SLJ#9246: I'm experienced with VR and I didn't get sick playing it on slightly lower framerates
JustinXenyx#8854: VR can fuck you up pretty badly with some harsh frame drops if you aren't used to VR
CaptainFlanger#2563: But for VR, high frame rate is a must.

SLJ#9246: sheer willpower and a lucky chance can do wonders for gaming on older less powerful hardware

Alcyone#2233: might need a better psu for that which is probably some weird oem design or a flex atx in a slim tower
