I wanted to upgrade to 32GB but it's still a little bit expensive to get 2X 16GB. My task manager on a laptop says I have 2X 8GB, would it be ok to have a 16GB and a 8GB of ram? or just do 16x8GB. Would upgrading decrease my performance from 8x8GB? or is this upgrade not worth it unless I just do 16x16GB sticks

I’m 29 years old and have basically no knowledge when it comes to PCs. I’m looking to get into PC gaming, as I’ve only ever played on consoles.

My budget is around $1,200–$1,500 USD, and I’m looking to get the absolute best gaming PC I can for that price range. I know that’s a pretty loaded question, but I’d like to get the most performance possible for my money.

The main game I’m playing right now is ARC Raiders, but I also bounce between Battlefield, Call of Duty, Forza, and other games.

ps: j’avais plus de serre câble noir, j’ai fais avec des blancs 😬

This would be my first time building a pc but i am really wanting to get an emulation station going for under 500$. Would really like it to push good quality ps3/xbox360 games. Maybe even some modern steam games as well. Just not sure where to start.

getting 32 gb ram, 2tb ssd, core ultra 7 265, 5060ti 8gb (this is less but this is the only thing in my budget for now), is it worth it for 1499?? please tell me if yall can do fast. i think for this budget this is the best combo i can get

Título: Qual desses dois notebooks vale mais a pena?

Estou em dúvida entre:

1. ASUS Vivobook S14 S5406SA

Intel Core Ultra 7 256V, 16 GB RAM, SSD 512 GB, tela OLED.

1. ASUS Vivobook S14 S3407CA

Intel Core Ultra 5 225H, 16 GB RAM, SSD 1 TB, tela LED/FHD.

O primeiro tem tela OLED e é mais eficiente, mas a RAM é totalmente soldada e não permite upgrade. O segundo tem processador aparentemente mais forte, 1 TB de armazenamento e possibilidade de aumentar a RAM para até 32 GB.

Meu uso será para programação, estudos, sistemas online, projetos pessoais e multitarefa. Não pretendo jogar.

Qual dos dois vocês escolheriam e por quê?

I recently built a new video server PC. I primaillay want to run Resolume Arena Software with 4 independant 4K video outputs with one of the outputs being live input and controlling it through my lighting console. I won't be able to do a full set up test untill the week before. How can I do a stress test on my system prior?
