QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Nov 8 2016, 11:14 AM) Is that ECS mobo a local unit/set? They don't seem to be available officially here. Apart from the orange light issue, is there any other thing that makes you feel like going for a upgrade? PC slow? Low FPS? That's the problem. Actually I was build the rigs from sources here and I wanted ASrock MOBO, but duno why... Anyway forget it. Don't know how to describe the hanging feel, consider PC slow. Sometimes like open something (eg FIFA), it needs wait quite a while, the cursor is not waiting sign, then the orange light will keep on light. |

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Nov 8 2016, 02:23 PM) The orange light is actually a light from your chassis right? If yes then it means your system is reading/writing to the disk drives, this is normal and is an indicator for us to know the PC is actually doing something that is I/O related. If the light is from the mobo (or on the mobo) itself then that's another story. Your setup is ok for FIFA (FIFA 17 as well) so I don't see any need to upgrade the mobo and GPU for now, adding a SSD would help a lot especially OS booting time and app loading speed. Erm But I've googled stated that orange light is MOBO?  Anyway forget it... Any SSD recommend? Thanks!  |

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Nov 11 2016, 10:13 AM) Kingston UV400/Samsung 750 EVO should do the trick for fast and speedy storage disk, if you are looking for a more premium one, you can consider Samsung 850 EVO. very noob question here. How to change the SSD as primary boot drive and can move completely win10 to SSD? What is the price range for SSDs above? thanks! This post has been edited by rickk: Nov 11 2016, 05:50 PM |
