    Using SLI 1080 Ti...time for CPU upgrade from i7-4770K?

    I've been using a 4770k for a while now, and I recently upgraded to SLI Zotac 1080Ti Amp Extremes. I play games at 1440p and 4K depending. But I'm curious if that CPU is giving me any bottlenecking or if it's time to upgrade to something else. I don't know much about CPUs, so any information...

    Storm fried motherboard's ethernet port! What are my options?

    There was a bad storm here. Lighting like gunshots. Boom boom. Torrential rain. Bad stuff. One particularly nasty bolt seemed to have done something to my internet, I thought at first. Computer said that the ethernet cord was broken or not plugged in. I tried three different cords and they all...

    Best Software for Youtube/Twitch Streaming?

    As a channel of mine grows and grows, I plan on starting to stream videos to Youtube firstly, then to Twitch. The problem is...I have never done this before and know nothing about it. There is a variety of different software solutions, I'm sure...and today I tried X Split Broadcaster, and while...
