What even is your actual build? I don't think you build anything?

ITT: Ghot says a i5-6600k/GTX 1070 build is "crap"



Well shit. Then I guess my 6600k and 1070 build that cost $1300 is crap. Darn.

Your sure?
Well then maybe OP should drive 150 miles to MC and get that sloppy $999 dollar thing with a non modular 500W PSU, that looks like it was built by a blind guy.
I mean I could find crappy prebuilts just as easily.
Wonder why I don't?

Maybe because I'm tired of seeing all the "why is my prebuilt having problems"...topics.

Aside from it (probably) having a poor PSU, tell me what is wrong with it? I've never heard of someone having issues with a Microcenter prebuilt.

Quality parts in it:
  • CPU
  • CPU Cooler
  • RAM
  • GPU
  • Motherboard
  • Optical Drive


Unknown/meh parts:
  • SSD
  • Wireless Card


Probably not good parts:
  • PSU


So... spend $200 upgrading the PSU and maybe the SSD? Now it's a great build.

Yeah, and I just shoveled out 2 driveways and 2 walks for some older folks. And I'm 60.

What'd you do this morning. Besides, think you know everything?


/e STILL, haven't seen a build from you.

ghotlogic has no budget it cant understand it

thats why ghot is poor, gets money, buys same parts for backup and video cards he will never use to their full potential


powerspec pcs are ok quality, nothing in them are special cheap versions made just for them

Went to my job that I go to every day to do graphic design..? I'm not sure why you even said that. You OK dude?

I haven't done a custom build because you can't do a custom build that beats the 6600k/1070 PowerSpec for $1000... It's literally not possible.
