Speccy thread: It still works strong edition
I am considering to upgrade the GPU to a RX480 but just because mine has more than 2 years and i want to change it before it breaks. maybe i'm gonna add another 8GB of RAM

you should sell the 290
It's not a 290. It's a 280x.
I play games @1080p 60Hz. my GPU is more than enough for me, i see no reason apart from the fact it's a old card to sell it
sell it and get something newer
That's not a positive buying attitude, stupid goy. Buy a new card and a new monitor so that you can make the most of it.
Yeah, that's what I'll do.
This is good goy attitude. If I don't need it I don't buy it
>my gpu works fine but I want to change it before it "breaks"
kys mario
If it breaks I can't resell it, Donald.

I cannot find a proper answer to this, but will I have problems if I buy a second set of identical RAM? Some say yeah yeah crashes, and others go BUUTT EXTREMELY RARE! LIKE ONCE EVERY THREE MONTH!
Some say not worth it at all waste of money, others say the benefit faaaaaar outweigh the chance of failure.
...
You shouldn't have an issue if you buy a second set of additional ram.
I have the same set of two and they work juyst fine.
Did you but them at different times or at the same time?
Because that is also something people say can be bad.
You want them to be the same timings.
>HD 6670
LMAO
Yeap its a leftover from my old pc, il buy a gtx 1060 soon tho
good. my last card was an hd 5770 so i know this is suffering.
hows this for a speccy, some dumb poo-in-loo laptop from 2011 that pretty much idles at this.
haven't used it in months really even though most of my media is on it.
figure i should crack it open and blow it's ass out, possibly new thermal paste and see what happens
By same timings do you mean that they should both run at 1600mhz as an example?
Does all I need
>32GB RAM
What the hell do you do?
No you want them to be running in the instance of the speccy here: to be (9-9-9-24)
That's the ram timing.
Anything I could improve?
I'm not good with computers...
That is the most generic speccy image I have ever seen.

What up nerds
>everyone using win10 now
What happened?
>now
Where have you been?
Even 2-3 months after W10 launched 1/2 of these threads were full of W10 posters, as the free year went on it only increased.
And honestly unless you're doing some james bond type shit I can't blame them, free upgrade to a faster OS with DX12 support and a GUI interface they already know.
The uber nerds will continue running XP, linux, or occasionally W7. But everyone else doesn't care.
i'll be upgrading quite soon, but this has been running great for years.
...
I went with W10 because Skylake refuses anything below 8.1 to even install. Has to do with Win7 not having a bunch of different drivers during the install. (m.2 nvme, USB 3, etc). Not to mention that regardless of what those Sup Forums say, a good majority play games. DX12, game selection, etc.
I didn't take the free upgrade as I've been pirating Windows forever and didn't want to risk being flagged in MS servers as such trying to go for an upgrade. W10 Pro 64-bit is actually the first Windows I've ever bought. Didn't want any fuck ups. Privacy settings set up so I'm sending as little data as possible back to MS. If they are watching, all they'll see is I play a lot of open world games, edit video and the only major servers I down/upload from is steam.
All important work is done on my Linux partition anyway.
I upgraded from an illegal copy of windows 7 the first day W10 upgrade was available, it activated instantly and i've been running a genuine copy of W10 every day since for over a year now.
Eh it was more of a "why not"? thing. I just spent $750 for new tech (6700k, ROG z170 board, 32GB ddr4), why not buy legit windows? It's a one time purchase, and a platform I use almost everyday. Kind of like how I am with apps on my phone. If I use it everyday, why not buy the pro version?
>Server Speccy.
Oh im not disagreeing with your thought process, just pointing out that it works just fine to upgrade an illegal copy.
What to upgrade next to fuck with.
should i upgrade from the 2 gb version of the r9 380 to the 8 gb 480?
Windows 10 isn't too bad. It rights many of Windows 8's wrongs and adds a couple of features here and there.
If someone is too concerned with it being a "botnet", they shouldn't be running post-XP Windows at all.
I agree, W10 is much faster overall desktop experience with an SSD over W7 or 8.1 as well. Just generally snappier.
Finally gonna upgrade. I won't bother with the upcoming Kaby Lakes.
...
I think mine will be strong for quite a while.
Not exactly faster in many situations, just newer
>Claims to support the Windows 10 Mandatory Telemetry system
>Runs a version that can have it disabled
Need to upgrade almost everything besides Hard drives.
CPU wont show up in Speccy. Its a 6850k.
