What is your gaming setup?

If you are actually into the racing community, you would care about the manufacturer of the steering wheel.

 

I have one of the best gaming laptops currently out on the market. It's the macbook. With an average of 30 fps on minecraft, it's packed with power.

 

It's a mac desktop with a mouse (oh and a keyboard )

 

Which Mac? Always thought the iMacs were appealing, maybe I'll get a cheaper one someday.

 

iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2010), 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3, 12 GB RAM, with a graphics card of ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB

 

quad core master race

 

Mine is just a laptop that moves around the house because I just sit on the couch and play lmao got a mouse too

 

LEEEEEEMOOOOOONNNNN I cant belive its you

 

What I wish I had..


VS What I really have..

 

How much for the bedrock right on your table?

I plan on building my next PC myself as well. I'm still quite unsure if I got all the knowledge to do so, but it seems quite easy to me now. The only part I'm a Little scared of is placing the CPU on the Motherboard and then spreading the heat-conductive paste on it. I think I should buy anti-static gloves for that, right?

Also, I wonder if it's worth it to use a (ready-made) water-cooling System if I don't plan on overclocking (or just a Little overclocking). My brother told me modern CPU a cooled quite easerly (he has a fan-cooled overclocked AMD, he says it stays at 35°C ). But I'm having quite some issues with cooling my actual CPU, as the cooling grid gets full of dust quite fast and in summer I have several emergency crashdowns because of overheating CPU.

The last Problem I have is that I always wait for the next Generation CPU-Technology.... that way I will never start buying the parts....but that's me :L Mabe I should start at last when Skylake becomes affordable.

My plans:

Intel i5 core Skylake tech
Gygabyte Motherboard with Q or Z170 chipset
Max 16 GB Ram (but upgradable, so maybe 2x 8 and leave the other Slots blank? Or should I better use all Slots with 4x 4GB?
Hybride SSHD 2TB Siemens HDD (I already call my own)
Blue-Ray writer
Cooling System: still not sure
Graphics: still not sure

 

What bedrock? I have diamond ore...

 

Oh sorry, wasn't clear on the Picture. I see it now. You know they are illegal to own right?

 

On Skyblock, yes. xD

 

Placing the CPU is pretty easy but I understand the nervousness as one bad move could ruin upwards of $300. For the thermal paste if you can buy some other than the stock, there is better quality out there. You may want to look at some videos to give you the right idea of that pea sized amount. Also, don't spread it out on the CPU, that'll happen when the cooling system is pressed down.
If you're really worried about static damage you can get a wrist strap, but as long as you're working on something like a table (no carpet, even though I do sometimes : ) and touch the metal on the case every now and then to ground then no worries.

I've got no experience with water cooling so I'll skip that part, several overheatings like that shouldn't be a common thing. My guess is for whatever reason hot air is not getting pushed out, maybe look over the fans and see that they are configured in a logical airflow? Also if you haven't done cable management -- I highly recommend. Recently stopped being lazy and did my own, it not only looks nicer but allows easier air travel.

 

I could help with the water coolage if you want o-o

 

Windows PC:
Nice mouse, and monitor
No lag

 

with full setting ultra shaders and realistic texture pack?

 

I've thought about it a few times, but with a Hyper 212 Evo my temperatures are fine for my current setup. If you've got any advice for SSDs I'm all ears, all I really need to speed things up right now.
I was looking at a couple on newegg lately: Mushkin and Evo.

 

SSD's are like hard drives same way to put them in same wires just a little more power and a hella lot faster

 

lmao, I know what SSDs are. I meant advice on a particular drive/brand.
