"K" series is unlocked so you typically get one if you want to overclock. If you don't plan to do this and/or don't have the parts to accommodate proper cooling then save the 50 bones and get the non-K. The 'turbo' part... check here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Turbo_Boost

I agree with @beers but also, I have tried a bunch of VR stuff on my 8700K/1080Ti rig and it works great,.

Is it even remotely useful in building a real PC?

Not sure if anyone has ever posted this, but for some reason came up in my 'recommended games'. https://store.steampowered.com/app/621060/PC_Building_Simulator/?snr=1_4_4__617

Jeez,, that patch in reality is them trying to stealthily sneak the missing half of the game in..without players noticing.

Different countries, here a $200 PC is a complete hunk of... to each their own what makes sense for them

$150-$200 is a rubbish budget. Save minimum $500 and even then you are getting low-end.. but new at least.

My father had similar dexterity issues and we got him a touchscreen monitor and it works very well for him and he doesn't get depressed or frustrated the way he used to. I know this means forking out some $$ but might be a nice option to give him flexibility and lessen his frustration.,

What is the best option to add bluetooth 4.0+ connectivity to my tower? Easiest seems to be simple USB adapter, for unknown reliability.. or spend a small bit more for a pcie card, also of unknown reliability? I don't need a new wireless adapter/card, just bluetooth capability for use with 2...

Crap! Bamboozled again by Microsoft.... Thanks for the info @johnb35

Okay, so I understand this. But then why isn't it happening to any other laptops/pc I've been working on.. or is it literally random? also, do you know what update is the offending one?

As the title says, reformatted a lenovo laptop with fresh Win 10 pro and all I did was activate windows, install chrome, office 2016 suite, did any updates that were ready to do, and once done, turned it off. Next morning, turn it on - asking for password! Tried random things, but obviously...

Tonight starting the new Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. Been looking forward to this one and haven't had a chance to dip into it till now.

Just finished Shadow of the Tomb Raider, which I really enjoyed. The whole reboot got crapped on alot, and this one in particular. In my opinion, the graphics are beautiful and the story is fun and engaging. The main missions are fun and the side quest/tombs are legit challenging. Loses points...

Do they even sell DVD's anymore? :eek:

GTAV is fairly demanding despite its nearly 5 year age now. I'd agree, none of those will give a suitable experience with GTAV.. especially Online. I have an MSI laptop with: Windows 10 Pro Intel i7-6700HQ GeForce® GTX 970M 17.3" (1920 x 1080) screen NVMe M.2 SSD and its still just okay at...
