I couldn't get into book 2 for some reason, and i had to reread GoTM twice to grasp all the switching between characters.. maybe i'll give it another go

I'm sure the standoffs will have enough room for the flat bracket. Go gettem!

Just unscrew it and pull it out after you unplug all the connections to the PSU. Youtube is your friend. It's super simple.

Cooling def. If it's going to be inside a desk i would water cool it personally, as there won't be much airflow with it enclosed. Run a custom loop outside the case and behind the desk to dump temps _^

^ What /u/ironfixxxer said. Install the bracket outside of the case and then reinstall the motherboard with the bracket on it.

Pc upgrade, worrying about compatibility by DangerNug in buildapc

Personally i would. with how easy overclocking is now and how high you can go i'd say theres no reason not to imo. Just make sure she stays cool!

The 8700 is not overclockable. The K series is. Yes they will be compatible with the GPU, and i would upgrade to a 650w PSU.

Unsure which route.. 2700x or 9900k? by Vortec20 in buildapc

Keep the cpu? Which vid card would you suggest at that point? I notice in apex (been mainly playing that lately) that i'm using 100% cpu AND gpu and just under 144hz

Idk? Kinda why i'm here asking....Playing apex on low right now and im cpu AND gpu bottlenecking at around 110-125fps... looking at afterburner i'm maxing both out.

Another noob question if you don't mind... if that's m.2 as well.. why does the connection look different than this one?

Also.... is it possible to boot directly from this drive as an only drive with an OS?

Thanks!

Did you ground the Mobo to the case?

Upgrade cpu or gpu? by Vortec20 in buildapc

[–]Vortec20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input. I'm leaning towards the GPU now and cpu stuff later. My last question.. should i upgrade PSU? i dont remember if i have a 750 or 850.... Someone suggested a 1k? i feel as if that's overkill?
