Honestly the difference between 120 and 144 isn't enormous. Like yeah... it's smoother but I wouldn't rather have 1080 over 1440 over it. The gigabyte one on his list has the best specs "on paper" but a proper review if available will show you more information than a comparison table.

That's not bad. What's Pixio like? Haven't really seen this brand up north.

because $250 budget? It's kinda hard to find 1440p high refresh rate at that price point I guess. At least one I'd recommend to people.

Does your motherboard have a Q-code display or at the very least beeping at you?

inb4 op's running a 2500k on that 3080 ti.

An 8-pin PCIE connector per the spec should be able to supply 150W of power through the cable (although, most PSU manufacturers rate their cables for higher than that... I wouldn't necessary risk it in this environment). The slot can only provide up to 75W. The 6700XT can draw 220W under...

Nice Nice... Just make sure you made space for a twin rail system to traverse across. I played on 50 height... and that was interesting...

That is a big part of the game. Ribbon world is fun. How tall is your constraint?

Factorio is way too addictive. I try to stay off that game as a result.

A lot of bloat in the software now. I'm currently using bitdefender free, it's pretty good so far for me. Windows Defender is sufficient though if you don't want to deal with a 3rd party anti-virus program. Malwarebytes has always been a good go-to for the occasional scans once in a while...

Technically, if your bios is on legacy. GPT is not an option. So if your harddrives are already on GPT, then your bios is in CSM/UEFI if you've got legacy hardware that isn't fully compatible with UEFI. Is there a specific reason you want to move to a UEFI only bios? It sounds like you're...

GPU stutters like that could be waiting for the CPU to catch up. Next time you play valorant, keep an eye out on the CPU usage as well and report back. See if there's any correlations to very high CPU Usage when your GPU usage drops. Sometimes rolling back drivers a couple versions back could...

Try using a different SATA cable and plugging it into a different SATA port to see if it still produces that freezing behaviour. At least that'll narrow down if it's your HDD, cable, sata port that's causing this behaviour. I'm still trying to think of why a HDD would freeze up the system...

Does that behaviour continue within safe mode?

new GPU's can also act as a space heater. ;)

I doubt it... that's not very Intel like to stay on a socket for that long. 14th gen (after raptor lake) is not likely to use LGA 1700.

Make sure the S states in the motherboard bios is enabled. Specifically, S1 to S4.

Either Plex or Jellyfin would do wonders.
