I played a lot of III Arena back in the day, I see this is MP only with no campaign.

My fricking ram is too tall and it blocks my 45° angle adapter that would be on my CPU block

Wha? How tall is this RAM? or how huge is that angle adapter?

It's the plain ole Corsair vengeance (the non-Low profile) with massive heatsinks. Gotta order an extension fitting and wait to put my shite together next Tuesday

I've been out of the news loop for the past few weeks.
Been in China for business.
Is it worth upgrading my r9 380 to an rx580?
Fwiw, I have a 1080p 75hz freesync monitor, the vg245h from Asus.

Do you drop below 75hz in the games you play?

Occasionally in a few games. Witcher 3 on ultra will have moments it will spike down to 30-40 fps. Skyrim does occasionally as well.
Dirt Rally and Project Cars perform really well.
Edit: Can't really make up my mind between staying with my current setup and frankly for the hell of it getting a Ryzen 7 and 2 1080tis, and get a new 4k monitor

Intel desktop sales down 7% in Q1 year over year.
Apparently the Intel CEO slipped up and basically said that AMD is going to take some of the server market as well, I said all along Naples is the AMD money maker, Intel owns like 97% of the server market as is and it is worth so much $$$$.
Intel expects CPU prices to fall

Looking for a 55 to 60 inch tv, what is the best one out there?
Posted on 4/29/17 at 10:21 am to DoUrden
I love my 55" TCL 4k and 50" non 4k TVs. Paid under $500 for both
Posted on 4/29/17 at 11:15 pm to bluebarracuda
Not so much worried about price but picture quality. I am upgrading from a 48" where the speaker went bad. The space is not big enough for over about a 60"
Posted on 4/30/17 at 2:58 am to DoUrden
Couldn't tell you. I'm still using a 48 inch Sony 1080p TV I bought 2 years ago.

Cooler Master Elite 130 - Mini-ITX Computer Case - $49.99
HD/SSDs - got a few extra lying around

Opinions?

Don't spend $85 on an EVGA PSU just because it's 80+ Gold.
Get a Z270 board, not H270.

So the ASRock Z270M ?
Also - can you recommend a PSU for this build?

Actually for an ITX build I would get an SFX or SFX-L PSU. The SFX-L is better as the SFX gets overheated easily and shuts off because the selective cooling doesn't work as well as they say.
I have this one in my ITX build

I think it's worth the extra money in an ITX build to get a small form factor PSU like I linked.
Posted on 4/30/17 at 12:15 pm to stout
Ok cool i'll check it out. Overall I'm happy with this build - it should easily outperform laptops of equal price.
Posted on 4/30/17 at 12:48 pm to Azazello
I would also check out used 1070s. They're sub $300 right now which is a great deal
