I would wait if you have anything around or beyond a GTX 700 series and you are only rendering stuff in 1080p.

And if you use ATI then hahahaha you use ATI.

I meant that more as jab at their bad drivers then your possible choice to buy ATI. I haven't used them since forever so maybe things are better but having dealt with a few ATI systems here and there, I don't think they are.

Yes, I know about ATI and their horrendous driver problem issues however, I might choose to purchase one of the new R4 lines either that or a GTX 1060, Currently I'm using a GTX 950 which is at the lowest.....end of the spectrum

I would not classify a GTX 950 at the lowest end of the spectrum. I am not going lie, its not great but I have gamed on much less with a decent image quality. I guess it depends on what you want but at 1080p, decent quality, GTX 950 is a decent card. What are you trying to do? I would wait if your not rocking some insane setup with 4k. The majority of my gaming is on a GTX 760 actually cause that is what is setup as a Desktop. My main gaming rig has a GTX 980 and I use it more for gaming in the living room. Don't listen to everything Linus says, its nice to have a GTX 1080 but its really unnecessary for most people's needs.

Setter for no less then Corsair,

They aren't prefect but they are the best with regards to price and quality. If you are not on a power hungry gamer like system, there are Corsair PSUs around $50. A PSU is the worse idea to cheap out on if you want to have a PC six months later. There are other decent companies but I find Corsair the least annoying.
Yup, that seems to be a common consensus. I'm just trying to find an ideal balance. For my current setup (which is just over 8 years old), the cx series would be fine (and better than the Thermaltake tr2 I mistakenly got), but I'm not sure how much room for upgrading that leaves me. My old psu was a 500w OCZ StealthXStream, and the main reason I believe it is dying is because in all my laziness I never took the time to clear out the dust that accumulated (stupid I know).

No, I don't have a 4k monitor rather a 24in hdmi tv, for I simply wanted to upgrade to simply get better performance overall. Not that my GTX950 is bad it's decent but, would like to simply go one step up as, when I looked at prices of GTX900 series there actually more expensive than the series 1000.

I honestly don't see anything about me that's confusing. If I share the same autistic traits and mindset with an autistic war hero, of course I'm going to use him for an avatar. I became disenchanted with England early this year. Women are more expected to be ladies there, than in any other country in the western world. I identify as male, very strongly.

I've just cut my own hair, and it wasn't a success, so I had to use the machine all over my head. So now I look like a ten year old boy. Hopefully it will grow back before all the handsome craftsmen are going to start working in my apartment.

I've experienced something similar to that, when I was much young and sought to have my hair lightened up however, this procedure was done professional the results were, that I wound up with my hair turning a weird orange color which, took a great deal of time for it be return to normal.Anyways, I hope your hair restoration happens quickly.

He he, orange color, that's a bummer! Unfortunately it's not much one can do, but wait. I don't really care that much about it, I've actually cut it that short on purpose several times previously. I would love to have long hair, but with my seborrheic dermatitis it's to much job keeping it clean.

It's too cold here for me. I need more sunshine. Actually, everyone who stays inside a lot needs more sunshine. :sunny: :flower: I wonder if there is somewhere I could move that has forests, flowers, sunshine, warm weather, and beaches?

Yes, there are places that have all that you seek yet, it might come at a cost.
