Random Thoughts.....What are you thinking?
Lakshmi.Aelius said: » Well! I'm surprised it even ran this time around. >:P I've put together what I think would be a decent machine.
Any input would be nice. Asura.Ackeronll said: » I've put together what I think would be a decent machine. Any input would be nice. Could probably go cheaper on the Mobo and get a smaller SSD with a HDD for storage and cut off a couple hundred bucks. Assuming you already have a case as well? Also that heatsink is massively huge... big like x-box. Might want to double check that you have space for it. Ragnarok.Hevans said: » does it just default to that? Offline

Oh yea I got over 9,000 on my score ! (actually I don't or probably will never play XIV )

If you're building something like this, why not just go ahead and get the 980 instead of the 970? I'd also just get like a 240/320GB SSD and like a 2TB storage drive. fonewear said: » Oh yea I got over 9,000 on my score !

I'd also just get like a 240/320GB SSD and like a 2TB storage drive. The problem I have with those small SSDs is that games today are freaking huge. GTA was like 80 gig. That's just one game. If games keep up with this pace thats only 2 Games and the OS. Offline

Nvidia Titan X or gtfo !
I usually only spend $100~$150 on a mobo. The expensive ones tend to just have more bells and whistles that never get used.
still doing it in windowed mode =/ but at least the right resolution this time.

Dammit SE. Why did you have to add campaign battle double XP to this event. Now I want to reactivate and level all of my 75 jobs in campaign.

If you are running a 4k monitor or a wide resolution monitor the 980 is very much worth the price. If you're using a 1920x1080 monitor then the 970 is the better purchase.

I'm basically running my laptop on my 37" monitor nowadays, so its normally at 1920x1080 res, but only really able to run XIV well at a lower setting or Full-screen
<_< think this is what my new character will look like after the expansion... Didn't know they had the benchmark for PS2
Will be streaming some King's Field 1 (US) in a few minutes if anyone wants to stop by.

Gotcha, I do the same now days. Running 3 monitors really isn't that taxing on a videocard if your game is just on one screen (1920x1080) but when you run games with all monitors acting as 1 monitor (5k resolution as seen in my above picture on TERA) you need MOAR POWER *Tim the Tool Time Taylor laugh* and the middle tier cards will start having trouble. However you can SLI the middle tier cards and get pretty good results, usually better then 1 card of the top tier.

Josi baby don't tempt me like that! My heart is fickle! I actually started playing on a level cap 75 ToAU era server a couple days ago.. but I am tempted.
Spoilers for 5k resolution skyrim and TERA screenshots. Duno if my old imageshack account will display the full size image though. Nope, won't go full image size. *** you imageshack! |
