Whats your pc?

[Pumaxcs]

Go and get some thin plastic cutting boards to put under your PC if its that bad. The feet should pick it up enough but it sounds like you have thick carpet or live in Florida.

I actually live in Chicago lol. Im not sure what the deal is. Didnt start happening till it got cold out. My case has huge rubber feet and sits on my desk. Might start wearing my antistatic bracelet haha. Im running "robocopy G:\ E:\ /e /f" in cmd to copy my files over to my 3tb drive then Im going to install a linux kernel on G until I go home in a few days.

I zip tied a plastic bowl of water to the air vent by my desk. Hopefully the heat will evaporate some of it into the air.

Just ordered my last part for my PC today. Finally have everything to have a decent gaming PC after, what? 4 years of planning?

List as follows
($80)Fx-6300
($60)Asus Mobo
($50)16gb DDR3 Kingston
(Free)2x250gb HDD
($60)1x240gb SSD
($75)MSI Twin Frozr GTX 770
($30 after MIR)Rosewill Stallion 700w PSU
($28)DIYPC M6-W

Not the prettiest, but I'll take it for the prices I got it for.

Change of plans since the mobo I had only supported 8gb of RAM

Thinking to build a pc for films for Christmas:
G4400
H110M Pro
2x4gb ddr4 Hyperx
Wd Red 4Tb
Evga 600w Silver
Thermaltake View 27 (i'm in love with it)
I'm probably gonna change the case and use my apevia for films's pc and Tt 27 for my primary pc.
The monitor is going to be an Asus VX228H.
Maybe in the future i'm gonna add a gpu, so that i can even play on it, i'm waiting to find a used 770/7970/960/380, for about 80/100€.

Sorry for dp.

Today i played some bf4, and it was all good until i disconnected to have dinner.
After, when i rejoined the server, my ping was stuck at 858/999ms. No one wasn't connected to the wifi,
my pc wasn't downloading any updates. I did a speed test from my phone and it was ping 39, dl 3,58 and upl 0,52.
After i did a speed test with my pc, ping 38ms, dl 4,09 and upl 0,49.
From task manager i see the wifi usage is like 120/130kbps when in game... it's all normal. I restarted my modem and my pc.
What's the problem?
I can play all other videogames with normale ping (50-60ms). I'm on widnows 10.
UPDATES: I tried to play with my 4g phone's data, (30mb dl and 16ms ping), i still have ping 999.
I have reset my pc to factory settings twice, doing win 10 clean install.
I tried bf1, i have the same problem: Ping stuck 999ms.
I tried wired connections, doesn't help.. In other games it's all normal, ping is between 50 and 70ms.
If someone could help me, i'd apprecciate it.

2016 Newest Dell Inspiron Desktop- AMD Quad-Core A10-8700 Processor 3.2GHz, 8GB RAM, 2TB 7200rpm HDD, 2GB DDR5 AMD Radeon R9 360 Graphics, DVD±RW, 5-in-1 card reader, 802.11BNG, HDMI+VGA, Windows 10.

Is this efficient enough to play mx sim and other games like CS:GO decently? Im in the process of switching from console to pc and going back n forth on buying a pre-built pc or building my first.

[Pumaxcs]

I will always try to convince someone to build. The R9 360 performs at about the level a GTX 750Ti does. Nothing fantastic but will be able to play games at console level performance definitely. Looking at the PC your budget is around $450 I assume? Do you already have keyboard/mouse/monitor/etc?

[MorganMX124]

I have a benq monitor already. Budget is 500$ as i dont plan on doing hardcore gaming just want a home desktop that can play mx sim.

Theres also this one - Dell Inspiron i3650-3133SLV Desktop (Intel Core i5, 8 GB RAM, 1 TB HDD, Silver) NVIDIA GT730

On the build i have i cant decide if intel i3 6100 is the way to go over a amd fx 6300 or any amd quad core around 100$.

I think i have everything i need to build a decent pc there, but would buying one of the Dell pc i posted before be easier to suit my needs? Also would be curious if i can upgrade the Dells with better graphics card. I'm leaning towards the Dell with intel or AMD over building right now and adding a better graphics card later.

Thank you for your input!

i wouldn't buy that dell pc, because for the same price you can get way higher performances.
yeah, you can upgrade with a better gpu, but until the power supply is okay (if it's power supply is a chinese 400w, you can't add a 280x/290x/980ti/1070 (medium tpd of 220/250w)).
anyway i'd actually go for intel cpu's over amd's.
gt 730 performs worse than a console...

AMD is right around the corner of releasing their new platform since 2012 (the reason the AMD stuff is so much cheaper than Intel is because of age). If you can I'd wait two weeks longer until CES 2017 (Jan 5-7) where Intel, AMD, and nVidia are all likely to give out plenty of details for what they are releasing in the coming months. AMD is hyped up to have a big release and scare nVidia and Intel into normal pricing again or they will have something competitive at a much cheaper price point.

If you can't wait for games I'd get an i3 + RX460

You can always upgrade the Dell but as Kawa said, you'd most likely have to update the power supply to be able to handle the extra power draw a card would put on it. Prebuilts are meant to be good for what it's built for, adding anything over the top wasn't something it was planned to do and giving you extra headroom in something like that isn't of value to them.

[Pumaxcs]

I hate looking at how fast stuff evolves these days. I paid $600 a piece for my 780's around 3 years ago. Its enough to get me by today and I don't regret buying them but when I see that my $1200 is competing with single $200 cards it hurts so much. It's so cool though to see the kind of progression through the years compared like this. What was top of the line 3 generations ago is now 2x or 3x outperformed by the same price range now and your top of the line is considered entry level.

Can't wait to be back on top again.

You're telling me . My build is almost 4.5 years old and is right on the edge of being able to play games on max settings just at 1920x1200 now. Went and looked at my EVGA receipt, $1,479.21 for the 3 670's...

I bought BF1 but haven't played it yet, I'm worried it won't be able to handle it.

I was going to tag you in this just because if anyone could relate to this pain it was you. lol

BF1's scaling is absolutely awful. I have to disable SLI because of the amount of problems it causes within the game and my 1 card does 1440p/High 50-60FPS worst case dips to 45. Super frustrating because if I leave SLI on I get solid 60-75 (that's all I get out of a second card? Bummer) but the amount of artifacts and seizure inducing graphical errors because of SLI its not worth it.
