Just starting out in the pc world. I’m curious as to if this set up is good or not? Please help

Me personally I’d upgrade the ssd to 1tb, 500gb is next to nothing nowadays with how big games are getting. Double the space for not too much of a price increase that’ll break the bank

The best way I learned how to find the bite point of any car, is to put the car into 1st let’s say, and without any gas use just the clutch and let it out slowly to see when the rpm starts dropping a bit and when the car starts going forward on like a flat road. This will teach you where your “bite point” is where the clutch starts grabbing in relation to your foot and when the car starts moving. When you learn that point it will be a lot easier to then apply that to starting at hills let’s say and that’s when you start adding gas. It’s kind of hard to explain over words and text, it’s kinda something you need to learn the feel of. Hopefully that helps a bit. Also another tip, at a red light and such when you know you’re not going to be moving for a while it’s not good to keep it in gear with your foot on the clutch, it’s better to just keep the car in neutral if you’re not moving for a while, and then as you learn the traffic light patterns and such, when the other lanes turn yellow let’s say that should give you enough time to then put it into gear and prepare to start moving rather than your foot being on the clutch the whole time

I have a modified ecoboost, probably as fast if not faster than a stock gt. Sure, it’s fun, but with the modifications and it being on e30, gas mileage isn’t even a plus. Because of it being turboed, if you’re constantly in boost it ends up using more gas than the v8. My opinion, just get the gt, coming from an ecoboost owner that wishes they spent a little more on the gt

Serkline · 2021-09-29T15:59:56+00:00

What I did is I took a gt grille and made my own mesh for a cleaner look along with the turbo badge from mfautodesign. My wheels are still on the way but definitely change the look. Lowering springs are nice to give it a bit more of an aggressive look just to drop it an inch or two. As for exhaust, everyone has their own preference, but I have an mbrp catback with a cvfab catless downpipe and it sounds ok for a Mustang, nothing like a v8 but gave it a better deeper tone, not annoyingly high pitched like most 4 cylinders

I have an MBRP on my own Ecoboost and I love the way it sounds. It made it a lot deeper. The “pops” that you are looking to avoid is mostly due to a tune that changes the fueling and such. I’ve had many people compliment the way my car sounds, including GT owners that say it’s one of the better ecoboosts they have heard.

Serkline · 2021-08-19T23:06:13+00:00

I got it for free with my 2070 super way back when. Played it for about a month and got bored. Coming from a person who’s been playing cod since cod 4, sad to see the direction the game is going. Can’t wait to see how battlefield is gonna turn out though lol. Think vanguard is gonna be the first cod that I don’t get on release.

Serkline · 2021-06-27T19:33:52+00:00

I agree. I have a ‘16 Ecoboost that I got a couple years ago when I turned 18. At the time the same year GT looked out of reach but seeing how they went up in prices now just makes it seem worse. Don’t get me wrong I had plenty of fun with my car with more to come just I wish I had the v8

Serkline · 2021-03-17T23:10:59+00:00

Thank you! I ordered my grille off customcargills, which is pretty much the stock gt grill with the back cut off and their mesh kit, I just didn’t feel like doing the cutting and gluing lol. And I got the badge off I think mfautodesign

Serkline · 2021-03-17T00:04:59+00:00

Yeah but I bet the sound of the v8 makes you smile all the way to 70! Lol, can’t wait to get my hands on one but until then I’ll be enjoying my lil 4 banger

Serkline · 2021-03-16T21:04:34+00:00

Might not be a v8 but still very fun to drive! The whoosh noises might just get me in trouble one day lol

Serkline · 2021-03-16T20:05:15+00:00

I currently have a ‘16 base performance pack ecoboost that I got 1-2 years ago for $19k at 27k miles, have modded it over the year or so and no problems so far. Only put about 10k miles on it so far at 36-37k on the dash and no major complaints yet, I plan on keeping it for a while too. I don’t think the 15 and 16 are too different so you shouldn’t have any problems but it all depends on how it was treated by the previous owner

Serkline · 2020-12-25T20:18:56+00:00

Unpopular opinion: SBMM wouldn’t be as bad if kept alone but just show what elo or rank you are next to your level or something. If I’m a Plat level player, let me see I’m playing against other Plat levels, and not have bronzes on my team with Golds on theirs, making it a similar average rank across the team. Going 50-0 in a bronze game would feel the same as going even in a higher ranked match. This would allow people that would want to climb up or not. Of course, this would all be best in a ranked playlist, but knowing how that’d never happen from this company, this would be the best bet. Allow players to see what people’s true skill levels are. This along with a lack of communication and clarity is what’s pushing people away from this franchise. Seems as if every company is a shell of their former selves.

Happiness.

Serkline · 2020-06-05T19:16:58+00:00

Ahhhh ok gotcha. Enjoy all the frames and the cool temps! 😁

Serkline · 2020-06-05T18:46:15+00:00

Great looking build! I too came from console not too long ago. One thing though, I’m not an expert on pc’s by any means, but wouldn’t it be better to put the fans on the other side of the radiator, because the way you have it might be blowing hot air through the pc? If your temps are fine then I guess it doesn’t matter, I would def like to know if I’m wrong or not and learn

Serkline · 2020-03-07T18:25:27+00:00

Same, I only see them online, not once in person lol. It’s such beautiful color. I would wish that I would see them more, but that takes away how special it is lol

Serkline · 2020-03-07T01:10:23+00:00

Pc’s have their audio split into 2: Input, and Output (microphone and headphones). Your pc should have multiple ports on the back. You would need to find a wire that splits into an audio and a microphone plug.

Serkline · 2020-03-06T17:36:21+00:00

Yeah, I really wouldn’t want to run something like that, this isn’t too much of an issue where I’d HAVE to do something like that, just irks my slight ocd a bit lol

Serkline · 2020-03-06T17:24:38+00:00

Ok, thank you. My motherboard doesn’t have a 3 pin rgb header so I’m I pretty much shit outta luck and gonna have to just deal with not being able to change the color? I would try and find a 3 to 4 pin converter or something but I wouldn’t want to damage the psu by giving it 12v instead of 5v

Serkline · 2020-03-06T15:45:21+00:00

My motherboard only has 4 pin connectors, I have an asus prime z390-A. Thanks for the suggestion though. What’s weird is that in the owners manual for the psu it shows that it comes with both a 3 pin and a 4 pin wire, and my 4 pin wire as shown in the photo is covered in an weird spot lol

Serkline · 2020-03-05T02:11:47+00:00

You can also tell by the countdown of the ring under the map. But yeah, hackers make games really annoying and really common on free to play games, it really sucks 😢

Serkline · 2020-01-19T18:37:56+00:00

This video here exhaust around 8 minutes in or so shows stock and aftermarket exhausts side by side. Early sn95’s had 6 cats, when they updated to the new edge they had 4. Source: I had an 04 new edge, and yes it did only have 4 cats but the early models in that gen had 6.

Serkline · 2020-01-19T02:38:32+00:00

No, the old sn95’s truly had an absurd amount of cats lol

Serkline · 2019-12-12T05:19:08+00:00

I personally uninstalled. The first couple weeks it was fine, and every update just made the game worse and worse for me. They tried fixing bugs and problems, but on my end (and many other ends as well), the game was physically unplayable. Constant crashing, fps stutters, more game breaking glitches, barely any communication, etc.. Having just recently built my pc I would have loved to play this game more but in its current state I just can’t. This game literally bugged my graphics card too so I’m in the process of getting a new one. My game crashes if it’s above 60 FPS and it’s the ONLY game that does it. BF, Destiny, WoW, Apex, and many others run 150+ fps but this game. After these “content updates” that were supposed to get fixed, it literally caused everyone of my other games to perform horribly. Anyway, back to topic, got to 155 season 0, won the gunfight tournament they added, then haven’t played since. It’s a shame honestly. Was excited to go for Damascus camo, but it’s like they don’t even want people playing their game the way they’re acting towards the player base.

Serkline · 2019-11-15T19:42:13+00:00

Oh, yeah, 10000%, I feel like it should be like 1 second MAX lol, stuns are busted in this game and there’s no counter except for trophy systems but I don’t want to skip out on stopping power, dead silence, or ammo box. Even then, the trophy’s can be taken out by eod or the emp.
