TwitchFast Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 well i managed to get some upgrades done. WIth some help/advice. was it good advice tho? lol http://gyazo.com/45fff0164c9ca1ac1b60a3ebe362251a also got a cooler master v650 semi modular psu Tbh it wasn't good advice lol, the PSU is good but the RAM upgrade is appalling, even I can't use 24GB and I run virtual machines + 30-40 chrome tabs + a bunch of utilities in the background xD The GPU and PSU are both welcome additions, you'll definitely feel the performance increase with that card. A bit of a shame about the RAM, unnecessary expenditure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uriamu Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I'd suggest you build your own PC. Much cheaper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of a shame about the RAM, unnecessary expenditure. Well the ram, i only bought two 8gb ram sticks as the upgrades, however i had two more slots left over and my old ones were still compatible so they just left them in adding another 8 gbs, so wasn't too bad. and your computer sounds OP lol, how much did it cost to build?

Funnily enough, my system isn't all that powerful. i5-4670k, 16GB (2x8GB) RAM, 780 Ti and a shitload of storage. It's just even I (a resource whore) can't use all of my RAM, let alone 24GB ;P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crippeh Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Building your own is always the best way to go, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
