Thanks for confirming that

Hi, I asked this question the other day when it was just task manager telling me my RAM speed is 1333mhz. I have Hyperx 16GB DDR3 1866mhz RAM. CPU-Z says its 933mhz (1866)mhz, MSI command centre says 1866mhz, as well as the BIOS. However, when I type 'wmic memorychip get speed' in CMD, it...

I recently purchased hyper x 16GB 1886mhz RAM.. In the bios it says that it's 1886MHz but task manager says its 1333. CPU Z says 933. I'm confused, I know speed doesn't make the biggest difference in the world... But id just like to be sure it's working at the speed they advertised...

Installed my H110iGT today.. It seems to be functioning well. 25-35c idle temperatures at 4ghz with i5 4690k. The LED is also turned on. However, Windows fails to recognise.. Or detect the cooler. I've seen other people have this problem and I've tried all they have. I've tried: Edit...

I Cloned Windows from the HDD. I guess that could be pet of the problem. But it's never appeared before today after I installed PSU. I will try and reinstall the driver Edit: I ran optimised default settings

Please take the time to read this, it took me a really long time to get this PC...and I hope it's not going to be ruined. Okay so.. I've recently installed some new component on my PC. These are: CPU, GPU, PSU, Motherboard, SSD. My power supply was faulty, so I had not touched my PC for a...

I'm using a Z97 PC MATE with mine. No issues whatsoever, overclocked the CPU to 4.2 ghz. I had to stop though, as I'm still using stock cooler for the next week. I digress.. There's no issues with using the i5 with Z97 PC MATE. It's £64 though*

Loading up dead rising 3... Then PSU just sparked a light about. 1.5x bigger than the PSU its self.. It shut my system down, I turned off the plug socket asap. Haven't turned it back on.. I guess I better get a new PSU, and hope my other components aren't damagedz Installed Z97 motherboard...

Hello, all. So, I've got the 530 source full tower. These are the available fan spaces I have: For intake I've got one in the front of the case facing directly at my 390 sapphire nitro. And another at the bottom, bringing air up to the GPU. The GPU itself has 3 fans pushing hot air up to the...

I ordered my 650W PSU late December.. I didn't think I'd need much power, now I'm questioning that. Amazon is still giving me the option to return the PSU..I've got Z97 and i5 4690k on the way.. Should I return the PSU now, while waiting for other parts, and upgrade to 850? When they arrive my...

You're right. I shouldn't be trying to fix a problem that I don't know I have yet. It just seemed like one of those times where everything goes down hill at the last minute.
