I have not purchased anything yet. I am considering waiting to see what the new Mac Pro brings to the table but may just purchase hardware that works in HS for now.
Did you have any issues getting this up and running? I am considering buying the 9900k and a Vega 64 to put in my ASUS Maximus X Hero Z370 but wasn't sure how compatible it would all be.
Looking to buy the following for a new build:
Intel Core i9-9900k
PowerColor Radeon RX Vega 64
Samsung 970 500GB NVMe
Corsair Vengence LPX 32GB (2x16GB) 3000MHz RAM
I already have the Maximus X Hero motherboard, Corsair HX1000 PSU, and Fractal S36 AIO cooler. I plan to use a Corsair Commander...
I was wondering this same thing, I was about to pull the trigger on a Vega 64 to start my Hackintosh build. I have a 1080ti right now in my gaming system but was under the impression the AMD cards worked out of the box since that's what Apple is currently using. You think I should stick to...
This is very interesting as I've read Apple will not use the X299 platform for the upcoming Macs. Are you running High Sierra or Sierra? I really wanted to jump into a 7820X system but held off because I wanted to see what the iMac Pro will use, but your success post is making me reconsider...
I've heard this too, though I hope it's not true. I'm sitting on a brand new shipment of everything for a 7700k build and I'm tempted to send it all back and sit on my hands until the iMac Pro is confirmed which socket it uses. I REALY REALLY want the 7820X, but I also don't want to buy into the...
Yes, you can, I want two though. I actually found the ASUS PRIME Z270M-PLUS that has dual M.2 slots. I am now realizing though that the ASUS STRIX 1080ti probably won't fit either of these boards with the added wifi card that needs to go in the PCIEX4 slot. I might have to go back to the drawing...
You are looking at ATX boards, I am buying a mATX board. You can go to Gigabyte's website and select both the Gaming 5 and the K5 and compare, it will bring up a list of all specs side by side.
I really wanted to do two NVMe drives but the smaller form factor won out in my list of essentials...
Thanks for the reply! I went ahead and ordered everything. You think I will run into any issues partitioning the NVMe drive to dual boot both systems? I have two 500GB SSD's for work files/games that I will use for storage.
Hi there, I am wondering if I will run into any issues with this build. I see there are a number of builds where people got the 7700k working just fine. I am upgrading from a 4790k so I wanted to go to the latest generation if possible to future proof.
Intel Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core...
After typing that post I realized I hadn't tried the USB 2 port, so I just plugged the receiver in there, and it's significantly worse, even not under load. I just got a new keyboard, but before I was using the wired Apple keyboard and had the receiver plugged in the side USB port. The keyboard...
I'm experiencing a weird issue where my mouse will stutter across the screen when my computer is under slight load. If I'm just moving around Finder or something, it's fine and smooth, but if I start to playback a video, or edit images in Lightroom, it starts to stutter. I've tested it against...
