    Get an 80 plus platinum PSU that provide what you need (eg don't buy a 1000W PSU when you need 500W. You want your PSU to operate at around 80% of its max. do you want modular? do you need single or dual 12V rails? pick a CPU  Understand what you're getting, if you dont know the difference between an i7, an i5, and an i3, why are you picking one? understand what hyperthreading is and whether you need it or not (you probably dont need it and if you have it you should disable it) understand which CPUs are unlocked and which are not AND why that matters or doesn't Pick a motherboard that has enough PCIe slots for you enough USB version X slots for you M.2? verify it's the proper M.2 slot for you (not all M.2 slots support a disk) enough memory to satisfy your requirements check if the chipset prefers dual or quad channel memory if not using an external sound card verify it meets your needs ENSURE THE BOARD HAS THE PROPER SOCKET FOR THE CPU IN STEP 2 KNOW WHAT KIND OF MEMORY THE BOARD REQURIES Buy memory that has good ratings Check timings, especially if you plan to OC check voltage, especially if you plan to OC check speed, especially if you plan to OC Pick a CPU cooler the included one is fine (with the included paste) for normal operation if you plan to OC, get some good thermal paste (i've always liked artic silver (i think it's up to 5 now??)) open loop water cooling vs closed loop water cooling vs air vs heat pipes vs thermoelectric, liquit nitrogen, healium, immersion, etc pick a graphics card  Ensure your monitors will plug into it, do you really want to introduce a single point of failure by using an adapter? Ensure it can plays the games you wanna play future use? cooling? do you need it to support liquid cooling? memory, how much do you need, why? power requirements? SLI/crossfire requirements disks Are you going to use a SATA HDD? SATA SSD? NVMe SSD?  the fastest NVMe SSD is 4-6x faster than the fastest SATA SSD which is 4-5x faster than the fastest SATA HDD do you want RAID? software raid is bad, don't waste your time, if you want raid (raid0 isn't real raid) buy a raid controller if you want NVMe do you have enough PCIe lanes to support full speed, if not are you OK with that? case <-- this is where you save money, not anything above here, ESPECIALLY NOT THE PSU ensure it's the appropriate size, too big of a case is bad for air circulation ensure you pull air in before you push air out use physics... convection already occurs, support it sound, support for radiators, proper size compatibility for your components (motherboard, length of video card, etc) peripherals <--this is also where you save money because a mouse is a mouse and a keyboard is a keyboard. you can always buy something better later.  
     
    Where should you check reviews at? anandtech and tomshardware are great resources
     
    When asking for help with your build
     
    Post your budget Post your list of components that you already have access to (ie. from your old system, such as keyboard, mouse, monitor) Post what games you plan to play or if you plan to do 3D shit Post what is important to you in those games, such as 144fps at ultra, or instant loading of levels, etc. do your research using the first set of points.

    Ordinarygamer96 got a reaction from Ironic in Anyone know the Star Wars show order   
    Well in this case even before disney the new clone wars show essentially erased the first. I can't remember any comics but he appears a bit in some of the later books from the old canon and actually teams up with the good guys and eventually becomes leader of the mandalorians and has a family etc. They make him more of a legit character especially during the vong war and second galactic civil war storylines in the old canon

    Compression sleeves. This was taken at an exchange point during a 200 mile relay race I was running.

    Unlike Mr. Erectile Dysfunction's anaerobic ass up above I can actually climb a flight of stairs without losing my breath.
     
     
     
     
     


    I've taken a couple years of break from driving human sacks of shit back into their holes but with all these neo nazi fuckheads popping their heads out of the ground maybe it's time to come back out of retirement.

    Ordinarygamer96 reacted to Reaper0470 in Poker Tourney Idea   
    So I was thinking we could schedule more poker tourneys throughout the year just without prizes. Leave prizes for specific points like steam sales and holidays. We pretty much always have a large turnout and this would allow people who haven't played to learn how and be a gathering of members to chill and have a fun competition for bragging rights. Be like a brofest only with cards.

    Military base.(I know we have a map like that) or convert a jb map to a ttt map. Tower would be a fun map to make for ttt. Could even make some of the games into traps

    Ordinarygamer96 reacted to Rootbeer in Evolve Tournament poll   
    This game is fun as shit, we should at least have some mini-events like an Evolve night to get more players interested enough for a tourney. I love the idea of a designated monster player.

    Ordinarygamer96 got a reaction from Jodas in Evolve Tournament?   
    So I'm starting to get into evolved now that its free to play and was thinking a tournament would be nice. 5 Man teams with the 5th either playing monster or serving as Sub for their rounds. It could be structured so that while the monster is doing his match for his team his teammates are facing the enemies monster. Would very much like to see this.

    Ordinarygamer96 reacted to turbulance in New complaint department mandatory agreement   
    So to the site engineers and forum function people I have a question. When accessing the complaint department to post/read can you make the rules and guidelines pop up on the screen and make them click a "I read the rules and agreement to making posts" before they can get any further and maybe put a note above it saying if they don't follow the guidelines their case is automatically invalid. Just something I think we could use to make the world a better more functioning place around here.
