espio100:
Im going to get the western digital one. Same specs as the Seagate only 5 bucks more.
Indeed if you look at the numbers on the left its like "durr only 14%" but I like my stuff to function as long as possible
LeetZero:
Nice.
(Merely playing some CSGO)
Lego lad:
whats better for a gaming pc, an Intel Core i5-4690 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor or an Intel Core i7-6700 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor?
the things I would wanna do:
soft shaders for bl

Well you don't really need multi-threading for gaming but has a bigger bus speed wich is very usefull.
But the i5 has a bus speed of 5GT/s wich is probably fast enough.
Want multi-threading? Get the i7
Want to save money? Get the i5
Oh and by the way I happen to buy the same i5 :^)
But CPU's barely impact the FPS on games as long as you're not bottlenecking your GPU.
But seriously even my laptop with a dual core 2Ghz can run ARK on minimum. For it to run on higher settings you want a good GPU.
