With the introduction of Ryzen 2, traditional overclocking seems to be going away - in that most of the chips we're getting are already pretty optimized out of the gate. I believe the future of overclocking will be enthusiasts focusing mostly on cooling capabilities to allow our CPU's to hit...

Here's mine: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/CXr6Mp

First world problem I guess, but a problem nonetheless. I guess I will have to take a wait and see approach. I'm really anxious to start this build as I've been waiting since January!

Well the mobo will be off the shelf. I'm trying to save some money by not going x570. I'm just wondering if off the shelf x470 mobo's will support the new Ryzen's coming out in two days.

About to perform a new build, with all new parts. Will I have issues with buying one of the new Ryzen CPUs and just dropping it into a new x470 board?

I didn't use OC Scanner as that gave me too much boost (to 2200mhz) and it would crash my game or benchmark. So I manually overclocked by simply leaving everything at default and manually adding +150mhz to Core Clock and +650mhz to Memory Clock. That's all I did and took 5 seconds. But yah, I'm...

My top clock speed I've seen is like 2050mhz while running Vermintide 2 benchmark. It typically hovers around 1900-1950 when boosting.

Hey Guys - just was curious what other folks that own the 2070 are getting for overclocks. I want to know if I got a dud or I won the silicon lottery and I can't tell because I have nothing to compare my OC to. Gigabyte Windorce 2070 MSI Afterburner Manual Overclock Core +150mhz Memory +650mhz...

Perfect condition! PC3-10700(667mhz) Perfectly working RAM. I just upgraded to 16GB Corsair 4X4GB and have no space for these and our other two PC's take DDR2 (Asus P5B Deluxe and Q9450 - Daughter) and DDR4 (Ryzen 1600x - Son).

I just got me a Gigabyte Windforce 2070 for $469 shipped with this coupon. You need to order through the eBay app.

Where do you guys recommend going to buy used cards besides ebay?

Thanks guys, I use Windows 10 and I'm leaning towards what you guys are suggesting - RTX 2070

Hi Guys - my current rig in my sig. Looking to upgrade my graphics card to either a 1070ti or 2070. I actually run two monitors, the other (not in my sig is a Dell 1080P IPS display). I play games like Diablo, Heroes of the Storm, Slay the Spire, and all manner of ARPG. I would like to play...

Can anyone give me a quick summary of what happened here as I"m not quite clear on what's going on. Sounds like the Verge did a video on how to build a PC and it was done poorly?

I'm chinese, and have been to china many times. Most folks there don't speak english (especially the older ones) and not knowing who she was, I would probably ask the same thing if I was an interviewer. The alternative is to just start chatting and see if they give you a blank expression or not.

I haven't been this excited for AMD since the Athlon XP and Opteron days. Can't wait for the reviews. I haven't been a regular visitor to this site in a few years, but that will change soon.

The answer is YES you should get this game, BUT you don't need to get it right this moment. The game runs poorly on even top notch hardware that are well above the recommended specs. Since you're asking about it on the forums, that means you're on the fence, so if you can wait, wait for a sale...

I wouldn't lie to you for no reason. That is the case, Blizzard wants Greater Rifts to provide the difficulty lacking in regular Torment difficulties to test your characters. However, I do agree with you that doing Greater Rifts alone gets boring, but so does simply doing Bounties or just the...

Blizzard wants Greater Rifts to be where you challenge yourself, not the regular Torment difficulties.

I think you're doing it wrong. But seriously, if you've never played this type of game before, it takes a bit to get accustomed to it. But once you do, you will love it!

Word, what this guy said. This game is freakin awesome! I love the old school party building and isometric view and combat. This is a long time coming and worth the wait. I think older PC gamers will appreciate this game more as the younger generation may not have had the chance to experience...

I agree, they should just reset the leaderboards, because it's doubtful anyone will be able to reach that high without the mechanic they just nerfed.

Unfortunately, I was correct, but it's understandable that they nerfed this as it's way too powerful.

Ah, OK, I got it. But we do agree Sever by itself isn't that great at anything in particular? This will probably get nerfed to oblivion soon.

You do know that those numbers are only applied to the 'killing blow' (when using Sever) so it's not like you would do that amount of damage to mobs normally, otherwise you would one shot just about everything. I mean the Sever is good if you want big juicy yellow numbers, but really they...

It's good to be back on these boards and even better to see the D3 thread still alive and kicking! If anyone that plays HC in D3 wants a Powerlevel either in Season or Non Seasons, you can hit me up in game. Muddyskunk#1674

Dam bro I'm right there with you!

When you go to pick the Runes for each skill, it indicates what type of elemental damage it is on each Rune.

Whoa, seriously? First off, are you playing HC or SC? Your gear it totally not optimized and there are no synergies with your skills. Get the Topaz out of your helm, cuz that's useless. Put either Amethyst or Diamond. Take Ruby out of your weapon, and put Emerald. Always emerald in weapons...

Or you could have someone power level you on T6. You can hit 40 in under an hour, and probably hit 70 in about 3 hours, granted you don't die in the process.

QFT - This guys speaks truth. Lower your sound channels to 32 or even 16 and you WILL see an improvement in frames, especially during the Bridge area in Act 3

Like I stated in my other post, this monitor is awesome!. I don't notice any of the overshoot or other issues so many people have reported on this monitor. I must've gotten a perfect panel, as there's no crosshatching, blb or even alot of ips glow. Colors are stunning and comparable to my...

Dell must've fixed all their panel issues. I've had mine for a couple of dats so far and it's running perfectly.

I got an A00 built Jan14. Panel is perfect, no dead pixels, or blb. I guess I got very lucky.

NCX - if both the Dell and the BenQ had no panel issues, would you say that the Dell would have better image quality?

Please let me know what you think of the monitor once you've used it for a while!

I actually found one review online and it wasn't the best. See here: http://www.digitaltrends.com/monitor-reviews/acer-k272hul-review/ But for $350, might be worth it.

Hey NCX - thanks for your reviews of this monitor and the Dell S2740L. I currently own the Dell S2740L since my CrossOver died, but man, I do feel like the CrossOver had better colors (more vibrancy, better saturated) than this Dell, even though the Dell is also an IPS panel. My question to you...

I see, so it's the IPS glow that's making the colors look washed out. Good to know, because I'm really looking for a monitor with deep colors like my Crossover had.

Yeah I see that, but the other side by side comparisons are pretty even between the two. I wonder if perhaps the lighting in the Red car picture was uneven when that pic was taken?
