NetRngr Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 Ordered the stuff to finally build my new rig! Ditched the Intel CPU for a AMD Ryzen 7 7700 but decided to stay with Nvidia for the GPU as a got a great deal on a 12g 3060 Gaming. 32GB of RAM and sor storage I went with Samsung Evos. a 970 500gb for the C drive and a 980 Pro 2 TB for the storage drive. Seeing as my current rig is a 5th gen i5 with 16bg of RAM and a 1650 I am expecting to see i slight bump in performance hahaha. Might actually be able to play something everyone else is playing now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NetRngr Posted November 27 Author Share Posted November 27 New PC was built Wednesday. Got it home and started setting it up but waited till after Thanksgiving to get on it. Unfortunately Friday morning I got bitten by a spider while out walking the dog Friday morning and have been sick as a dog all weekend long. From loading stuff and general setup use its super fast which is exciting but I havent opened it up yet to see just what it will do under a load. Figured while I was at it I may as well replace the primary monitor with a 1440P Gigabyte gaming monitor as well, so i will be going from 24-27-24 setup to two 27" monitors on the unit. I've really considered going 24-27-27-24 but that will definitely have to wait until I move and can set it up in the office upstairs without the built in cabinets over the desk so it will all fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NetRngr Posted December 5 Author Share Posted December 5 Welp the results are in: OMG is this thing fast! Apparently I can still build a good machine. Played about 4 hours of World of Tanks Sunday evening and averaged around 170ish FPS on ultra settings. Curious as to what its gonna do on a BR type game or a FPS title. Heck I'm almost tempted to load up BF4 or BF1 and give those a shakedown. No reason not to now that I have a 2TB SSD for game files. I have BF2042 I could load up but Im still a bit iffy on that one even after the updates. We shall see though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
