[MEGATHREAD] Personal Computer - Updated builds thanks to Logical Increments

[Mule]

So, I'm thinking about getting a new GPU for my computer. I have an FX-4100 cpu, 8gb RAM, and a Radeon 7770 GHZ edition 1gb. What should I get for 200$?

What games has to be the obligatory question? I would recommend a GTX 950 or maybe a GTX 960, but you get on the border of bottlenecking that chip on DX11 games cause of its single-core performance.

Ddr5,6,7 any ddr,is gona be stuff very soon here.

Hbm types are 9 times faster then ddr5, and easily stacks to 64+ gigs.
Nvidia will be using hbm2 next year, mobos will support it rarely, but all brands will have a model that does.

The thing about new DDR's is they aren't actually faster at all. RAM speed is a combination of C-latency and frequency. So every we add a few more ms to the timings and add a few hundred MHZ to the frequency speed to balance this. There is no point to upgrade to DDR4 because it is overbaked. Unless you are interested by some of the technology upgrades like 16gb chips at a potentially affordable price next year.

I jerk off to the thought of a HBM ramdisk <3.

GTA V, BF4, Garry's mod, maybe some other games as I buy them. Also forgot to mention that my PSU is 430 watts.

Typically it is required to be engineered on the CPU and the motherboard chipset to allow for 2 processors. So you probably wont ever see a consumer level piece of equipment with dual CPU's as there isn't any demand to intel, amd, or motherboard manufacturers.

The wired Xbox 360 controller I bought was broken, so I've ordered a wireless controller with a wireless receiver :D
