I'll have your check mailed out today or tomorrow. Hopefully I can kick my soccer team out early from practice today to get it mailed

You're better off asking in another thread or texting Bruce or Noz, these guys are usually too busy jerking off to their benchmarks and such

Bruce just got a 1060, and he said it's been night and day from is 7950.

So far you have the CPU, SSD and PSU (what model)? What about a case? What's your old build?

Look around craigslist for some stuff. We usually have some parts for decent prices in our area

So I have it together except the video cards, but it won't turn on. This is the first build where I haven't had it power up at least. The PSU doesn't come on so there is something wrong.

You sure you got the right stuff hooked up on the psu and mobo?

I think I do but something isn't right, I am not messing with it anymore tonight. I am going to try a different PSU that I know works tomorrow and go from there.

Post a pic of the back of the psu and how it's hooked up. Might be using the wrong rail.

So I've got a question as a newbie to PC building.

I bought my last rig pre-built, and it's 6 years old, but I've upgraded video cards, power supplies, and hard drives along the way. I'm not ready to buy an expensive rig right now, but I do need a little boost.

I currently have a Titan X. I need to upgrade motherboard, cpu, and ram. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'd really like to keep this around $500.

Your best bet is to save a little more and go with the 8700K

How are you trying to power the PSU? Just with the power button on the case? Because obviously check if the power button header is connected properly.

If power switch is fine, check RAM seating. Try running with two sticks.

Try running the PSU by itself with paperclip.

Is that compatible with the Titan X?

Video card compatibility isnt a problem these days. You're good to go

Try plugging a 1060 into an X58 or P67 mainboard and get back to me. ;)
