Hello. I am not even sure what I am asking here lol...perhaps, anyone that has owned the devices can offer some advice. The device will be mostly used for media consumption, web browsing, a bit of audio production (i use those terms very, very loosely...I am talking no more than 10 tracks...

Hello. I was wondering if you fine folks can help me out here, please. I mainly play multiplayer games, like Battlefield, Wildlands, Titanfall...etc. on the console. All of my friends and family own consoles, so their is no getting around this if I want to play with them. Mostly all of the...

Hello. I am in the market for a new display. It will be using for primarily for gaming. I will probably use it for web browsing sometimes, but mostly gaming. I would like a 27" monitor. I only game at 1080p@60, and will be for the foreseeable future, as I will not be able to upgrade any time...

Hello. I am really torn on what to do here. Should I go with an i5 6500 or an i7 6700? I want it for gaming at 1080p@60, web browsing, general office work and web design using Photoshop (not heavy Photoshop and RAW work...simple web design) and Dreamweaver. I have no desire to overclock, so I am...

Sorry for the confusion about RAM slots. That was my fault. I went ahead and ordered 2x4 GB of the Ram I have installed now. It was only $53 USD. Not too bad, so I got it.

:)...That is why I thought it would be funny to post. Personally, I don't touch the stuff.

It was that or just buy 5 super-sized "value" meals lol.

Thanks! Like with the new GPU I ordered, I said screw it and I just ordered 2x4GB of the RAM I have now. Why not, right lol?

Here is my mobo: GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD4H LGA 1155 Intel Z77

Oh, I forgot to add that I have 2 x 4GB in now and I only have 2 slots for RAM.

Thanks for all of the replies! This is what I have now: G.SKILL Ares Series 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) I am looking at this: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Here is my mobo: GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD4H LGA 1155 Intel Z77 Would the...

Thanks! Yes, I will be updating to Windows 10.

I have a 6GB G1 980 ti on the way. Will that make a difference?

No, I don't think so. I was just wondering because I have been using 8GB of RAM since I built it in 2012. I am just looking to upgrade stuff and RAM is the last thing on my list, but now I am thinking that I don't really need it. I guess I just wanted a second opinion lol.

Hello, I currently have 8GB of 1866 MHz in my rig. I was wondering if I should maybe look into upgrading it to 16GB. I mostly use my rig for gaming. I do not really use it for work anymore. Is it worth upgrading or is 8 GB still enough for gaming? I mean, I am running games fine now, but I...
