so I just built my first PC bros

How did I do? What should I consider upgrading in the future?

Is liquid cooling worth it?

>JUST build my first PC

I hope you don't mean the past month or so. You do realise a new line of GPUs is coming out soon, right? Why didn't you wait for the 1070?
>>
>>338270109
I read that nvidia has a step up program that last for 3 months and I wanted the 1080
>>
>>338270109
>Buying EVER a xx70
If there isnt a 80 at the end it is shit
>>
>>338270109

>my friend bought shit PC 3 months ago
>it got electric shock and it's broken now, the warranty won't cover it

So when is the best time to buy a new cheap PC?
>>
>>338270021
Have fun with your future bottlenecking.
>>
>>338269697
>WOW

Fucking no
>>
>>338270316

Step up?
So you give your 970 back for full purchase price, pay a bit extra and get a 1080?

Well then nevermind what I said.
>>
>>338269697
>I5
>970

TOP FUCKING KEK, should have gotten a 1080 you fucking ceck and an I7 if you can afford it
>>
Ram may have been overkill, ive always been good with 8 with my 980 but overall decent. May want to have an SSD that boots windows while installing most programs to a larger secondary hard drive as it boots load times

>i7
You're fucking retarded.

>>338269697
All that horsepower and you're using a 60hz display. Retarded.
>>
>>338271595
yea I realized that today and I'm shopping for a new monitor what do you guys suggest I was looking at samsung ones but I don't know there rep for PC monitors. I like there TVs.
>>
>>338271930
Depends entirely how much you want, but for a tier list of features and their importance vs cost

144hz -> 1440p -> G-Sync -> IPS -> Ultrawide

Jesus fucking Christ you gave me cancer

>>338272407
You don't buy norton, it comes with your PC. You don't even own the lience for it because its OEM.

Win key -> "System" -> Enter -> Print screen

Show me your system screen or gtfo

Hey guys, I'm waiting on the parts to arrive for my first build. Anyone know how the Gigabyte Graphics Cards GV-N75TWF2OC-4GI runs? I won't be playing too many new games but I'd still like to see a user's opinion

Nvidia doesn't have it you idiot it's EVGA. I seriously hope you bought an EVGA card or bought whatever card you bought within the last 14 days because otherwise you're shit outta luck.

Also

>upgrading to the 1080 when the 1080Ti will be out in a year maybe year and a half
>buying a new 970 instead of a lightly used 980 Ti because retards are selling theirs to get the 1080 instead of waiting when they have a perfectly capable card
>buying gen 1 of a new architecture instead of waiting for a revision to iron out any problems
>3.5 + .5

I can't wait to get my second 980 Ti this summer then sell the both once the 1080 Ti at the very least drops.

No.
>>
>>338269697
I've had a lot of bad experience with Seagate HDDs, hopefully you're backing everything up.
>>
>>338273339
That's not hard to edit though.
>>
>>338270496
Maybe 3 years down the line, my 3.1 ghz i5 lasted me a good 4 years and i never played any games below 30 frames on high besides the witcher 3
>>
>>338271595
learn to read, retard

>>338279007
you need to set your standards higher and get a new gpu

/v/ is useless as ever least the guys at /g/ are useful

>>338272281
I agree he also has Win 8.1, you either go Win 7 or Win 10 if you can chose. There is litrerally no reason to go for Win 8.1.

OP is a prebuild shitter.
