ah ok I assume you say this because of the recent decrease in the price/value of various crypto currencies correct?

Thanks for replying. (my CPU is an i7 9700k) do you think it will be able to handle 2x GPUs? (one of which will be used for simultaneously mining+gaming and the other mining only) Why do you say "tons of electricity wasted for extremely little money"

intro: I have a gaming PC with plenty of space and pcie slots open. I'm already mining with my rtx 2080, I'm thinking how adding one or 2 cards for crypto mining. If I end up loving this and if its somewhat profitable i might eventually make a dedicated rig just for crypto. But I figured, "gotta...

How does the gsp 500 compare to the "game one"?

What about the sennheiser pc360. How does the game one compare to it?

Does nvidia 3d vision support 1440p resolution? I've been trying to find the info on the Web and can't seem to find the answer. I've also read that it's possible to use other glasses than the ones nvidia sell, But only through 3d tv play. Is it also possible to use em with nvidia 3d vision...

Does this monitor support 3d Glasses?

I just re-read myself and indeed lolz I don't know what I was on lol. well I know, I was on my dang cell phone. This is my pc now, God it'll be fun to have a workstation again! I'm doing all this research off my htpc on this huge tv lol. sorry for the confusion :|

Yes I looked up the gigabyte gaming ultra mobo x99 you recommended and it doesn't have an optical input for xbox one. Anyhow I believe I found a solution to this. The astro mixamp.

Oh and I forgot to ask: I sometimes play the xbox one with friends. I was wondering if I could use the motherboard "on board audio" to give the "dolby headphone" virtual surround sound effect to my sennheiser pc360 headset or if I'll mandatorely need a soundcard for this (or external DAC amp) ??

Thanks. Final questions and I'll be set: 1. Should I only install Windows and drivers and important programs on the m.2 drive? Or would games benefit from it? 2. I'm starting to wrap my head around the pci-e lanes notion. If I got this right: 28 lanes come from the CPU (i7 6850k) and 12...

Yes I agree. Although I haven't added more questions. To me this thread is complete. I didn't think we'd talk about the rest of the build. I just thought by creating a CPU thread, the CPU geeks would be happy to advise Whereas PSUs are en entirely different beast. But yes, I don't mind unifying...

I didn't see it becoming a problem.

Budget is not a problem indeed. So your suggestions do make sense. It's just I'm the type of guy who likes to understand what he's buying According to my own research at this moment in time, the i7 processors are not that favoured for Gaming, meaning an overclocked i5 processor seems to do the...

Got it. I'll look up the 750w and 850w evga g3
