    Custom gaming pc for Fortnite...need help!!!

    Honestly just about any decent machine will handle Fortnite with ease so you could probably spend half that and still build a decent machine for Fortnite.

    That said, the system listed is a nice build and one that's future proof more demanding games. You might consider building it not just for Fortnite, but other stuff.

    Again, any decent system can handle Fortnite so from that perspective the specs listed above is over kill. But if you want something future proof and powerful that system is a nice place to start.

    Anyway the only suggestion I have (based on the assumption of an OS drive) is to get a 512gig SSD drive, and put the extra money towards a 2TB or more HDD drive for games and other data. The only real difference between putting games on an SSD drive vs. HDD drive is faster load times. The other thing you could do, though it's more money, is again, go with a 515gig SSD for the OS, and a 1TB SSD for games and data.

    I just don't see an OS drive needing a 1TB SSD drive. I've got multiple SSD drives in my system with the OS drive being a 512gig SSD drive and my other SSD drives holding other data. The OS drive houses all the OS's native files and folders - Documents, Pictures, Music, Downloads, while the data that my go into those folders is placed on the other drives - Gaming, Music, Photo, Misc. Data.

    My two cents.

  3. Cant play games that use EAC

    I am having the same issue and will monitor this thread for a solution.

    For me it only happens in games that use EAC. I have tried all the troubleshooting methods you listed.

    After playing a game for 5-10 minutes the entire pc will freeze/hitch multiple times for several minutes. Sometimes the game will crash and other times it will recover. If it recovers then I can play the game indefinitely without any further issues.

    Does this match your issue??

  4. Fortnite EAC error not letting me to open the game.

    Failed to start EAC client.

    Hello. With a clean install of Win 10 I tried to run Trials Rising & I get an error message "Failed to start EAC client". I went to the EAC folder & ran the .exe as admin, the installer said EAC wasn't currently installed. The installer appeared to run
    fine. The game still wouldn't work. After numerous "repair" attempts to EAC, uninstalling Trials, Steam & Uplay & reinstalling, restarting the computer etc., I've had no luck. It appears that EAC isn't installing even though it says it is. About 2 or 3 weeks
    ago the game worked fine & it seems to me that I've seen EAC in the list of installed programs when removing programs before. Maybe I'm wrong about that, but if it should be there after being installed, it's not there. So maybe something's preventing it from
    installing? I'm wondering if something about a recent Windows update has broken something. According to the build release dates on Wikipedia a new one has come out on Nov. 12 (from 1903 to 1909). Also with the new Win10 build my Logitech F710 gamepad driver
    will not load, so I'm very suspicious that the new build has changed things causing these problems, at least for me. Unless it's some setting that I'd coincidentally changed before that I haven't gotten around to changing in the new install yet. The same problem
    has been occuring with other users since well before the latest Win10 build so maybe it's a setting I'd changed before, I have no idea. I've Googled for solutions to the EAC problem & all I could find was the standard stuff (verify game files, uninstall/reinstall
    everything, restart computer etc.) & one thing about removing .NET 3.5, but it already wasn't checked in Windows Features so I checked it & tried everything again. Still no luck. I even tried turning off Windows Defender & installing EAC then trying to launch
    the game & no luck. What could be causing EAC not to start, or even install?
