if i knew how to do that stuff, would love to try and save the psu, cooling and definitely the case. really hard to find a good one on here at least that has a disc drive still. and its just kinda pretty the more i look, the more i think maybe i shoud just stop playing the games. would love to...

that was kind of what i intended with this pc, but never actually upgraded anything until this year. im thinking the life of a pc is going to be 4-5 years, hence putting on what i have so far. but for using today it seems overkill. have found 2vs2 armies is painful at times though lol m.2...

it is certainly the only certainty, but can always upgrade or buy again in a few years to be honest, if this pc could do what it does now without overheating when playing games i wouldnt even be looking. got a fan sat on top at the moment to keep it going, but it isnt really the right weather...

you sound like you are on commission lol i get what you are saying, but that isnt an interest and never will be mate

again, not interested in ultra settings or a new monitor. more interested in if it works, and will do for a few years maybe my only real concern is downgrading too far, and not being able to play something like three kingdoms in say, 2022. for memory, everything i read suggested 16gb is...

yeah, was thinking about a liquid cooler. scotts guide suggested it wasnt necessary on this low a build, but im using the Corsair H80i V2 Hydro Cooler w/ PCS Ultra Quiet Fans at the moment, been great for 4 years monitor im on now, i picked more for size when reading profile pages on fm than...

just feel they arent really good enough games to need it. half the time you are lucky if they get the hair colour right on fm for instance, i dont need to get annoyed by the faces too lol i think this pc has really got me used to the silence, so my main concern is the general quality. it is...

this can run fm20 and thrones of brittania, so 2018 and 2020 versions. they are really basic games far as graphics are concerned, far as i can tell

to give you an idea of what i have been using, this is my pc i am on. if it didnt over heat when i play games, it would still be perfect for me. silent still, never needed quicker loading or anything like that. bit slow on transferring between drives, but nothing to drive you crazy or anything...

i am not a gamer, though i have seen mates use better stuff. as i said before, im only playing football manager and total war style games, nothing that needs any kind of advanced 3d stuff or fancy monitor

i am sure you are trying to help, but there is no way i am buying anything just because i can. i might as well go buy a car i cant drive while i am at it! i definitely dont need a new monitor either. it isnt holding me back at all, because i dont play anything that requires better and never...

I'm just starting a night shift, sorry for not answering anything else straight away and thanks for replying

The budget isn't the issue, so much as do I need it to be this good for basic gaming My original build was around 1400, and definitely ott. This is round 1100, and not sure how low I can take it For monitor, again I'm not planning on anything new, no 1st person games or anything. Displays...

money wise, i think i am spending too much just because i can. no proper budget, just have a habit of seeing higher numbers and adding more than i need i think just gaming and internet use, no need for work or editing things monitor is 60 hz, 1080 if that is what you mean?

hi, I have been trying this for a couple of months, currently have a fan sat on my pc to keep it cool while playing games i am not a real gamer, usually playing football manager or total war style games. have just slightly edited from Scotts pc building guide on here, would this still be...
