And got to know him by the Crysis game. But anyways,.... He asked me to pick parts for him and he hired me. Even though, I do that for free. I love to help. I already have his CPU, a Intel i7-9700k and his motherboard came in today. I want to brag about it ; ) and you can download this and watch it on your PC with for example the VLC Player: It was the third time I turned it on. First was, oh, shot no video output (DVI). Second time, I uuuhm.. had the CPU Fan plug on the system Fan header. Alright, lets go. https://ufile.io/zve9u2ov And hey, don't think with that, I am better in Dutch.. nope!

The i5 gets almost the same scores for almost every game in benchmark tests. Normally to the point where the $100+ can be saved or used in a different aspect of the computer. But i also feel that the nvidia rtx 2080 super (w/e their top card is this week) is over priced too and I'd get a lower one because most monitors only support 60fps or 144fps and anything over that is over kill, not to mention your eyes only notice things around 45hz or less depending on a lot of things... But if i had more money to throw at a PC I'd get the i7 and top graphics card... Maybe the i9 or i7 extreme... I haven't kept up with Intel's naming over the past year or two. Hawk 1 Awards

Absolutely correct. If you have a motherboard that supports PCIe NVMe gen 3.0 x4 I would pick up a Samsung 960 evo or 970 evo 1tb drive. They are literally ATLEAST x4 faster than a M.2 Sata 3 drive or regular 2.5" SSD Sata speed maxes out at 600/600 MB/s but typical speeds of 540/560 MB/s are seen with high end SSD drives. PCIE Gen 3 drive maxes out with 4,000 MB/s sequential read which is the current hardware limit until Gen 4 and Gen 5 come out and literally blow that speed out of the water with claims of being 6x faster than Gen 3. This is a rock solid choice for a good drive. Price per performance? It's a No Brainer. Just do it. https://www.newegg.com/samsung-970-evo-1tb/p/N82E16820147691 Hawk 1 Awards

Running WIndows 10 Pro 64 bit, it fires up cold boot to usable in 17 seconds!!! The motherboard I have will allow me to go up to the latest i9 processor for future upgradeablilty as well. That all being said, Nice build X-Ray!! Will keep him into gaming for a long time to come!!! Edited October 4, 2019 by Hawk Awards
