The water cooling radiator still has a fan though. Seems kind of pointless because under load you're probably mostly hearing your gpu anyway. Once you get into gpu water blocks it starts getting complicated and expensive again.

The cool thing about PCs is that you can do a lot more than gaming and there's plenty of things you can do that require heavy duty hardware that would be overkill for gaming, but if you're a music producer trying to run LA strings or something, or doing a student project that requires hardware that can do high quality animation and rendering that finishes some time in your lifetime, or if you even do video editing for something like youtube and vimeo, suddenly becomes justifiable, and incidentally can play any game you can throw at it without sweating. Lol @ everyone ITT that has screamed at people "YOU DON'T NEED THAT TO PLAY GAMES IDIOT THATS OVERKILL" like, gaming is your benchmark. Cool. It's my benchmark too. That's the most cpu/gpu intense thing i do, but lots of people make a living doing other things on a pc.

It's a good and affordable set up for a lot of work loads. It would suck poo poo for gaming because most games can't use more than four cores effectively, but for video encoding it can probably stand toe to toe with a $2000 PC.

I have the original mbp retina which cost like $1,000,000 but the fucker is a beast and runs games/3D mod apps (eg maya 3ds max rendering) fantastically. I'm actually shocked how good this thing is and how long it's stood up to time.

Various HP big box store prebuilts because I don't need them to match the paint and underbody lighting scheme on a Subaru Impreza. I don't fault anyone who does, I just went through all of this back when there was near zero documentation for the parts and Computer Shopper routinely deforested Maine. One is an all in one with Beats Audio that sounds like a dollar store pillow speaker at any setting and with any source. Dre took their money and ran, I guess.

RX 480 is also an option, although relatively painful to find. The RX 470 would be a decent upgrade, but not as big as the 480 or 1060. It is much easier to find than the RX 480 though: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814126123 But if you must have the more powerful GTX 1060, this one seems to be in-stock regularly, and is a good brand at a decent price: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Perfect-Graphics-06G-P4-6163-KR/dp/B01IPVSLTC Avoid the newly-released 3GB GTX 1060 card. Just when you thought the GTX 970 3.5GB ram wasn't enough for this performance level, Nvidia is daring you to go even lower! defaultluser fucked around with this message at 04:44 on Aug 19, 2016 |
