Hello, A while ago I replaced my AMD stock cooler with a Coolermaster hyper 212 evo. It's been working quite well however, I just noticed its beginning to bend the entire motherboard around the cooler mounting points. The motherboard is now banana shaped. It is very subtle from the front, but...

Hello, Yesterday I found two extra monitors lying around and decided to put them to use. I plugged one into my graphics card using DVI and the other into my motherboard, again using DVI. I couldn't plug the monitors directly into my graphics card because these monitors are quite old and don't...

Hello, A few days ago I attempted to power on my gaming pc however, it turned on momentarily and then shut itself back off. I decided to leave it alone and fix it later as I had more important things to do. A day later, I came back and realised both my screens refused to turn on and I thought it...

Hello, I just restored my CPU (AMD A10-5800K) clock to its stock settings after overclocking and it is now reaching crazy frequencies such as 5.7 Ghz and 600 MHz for no reason. It is designed for up to 4.2 Ghz turbo clock. I have reset all settings in the BIOS. I am watching it with AMD...

Hello, Recently I overclocked my A10-5800K to 4 Ghz from its stock 3.8 Ghz. To do this, no voltage increase was required to get a stable result. I then increased the turbo boost multiplier to 44 from its stock 42. This seemed to be stable until today. I think it might have something to do with...

Hello, I recently asked you guys if I should replace my thermal paste due to there being a tiny bit over the edge. I just took of my hyper evo 212 and used both articlean products to clean my CPU. This time I put less on and it hasn't gone over the edge however, temperatures or no better. It...

Hello, My AMD A10-5800K is still running at it's maximum temperature of 74C when under full load. (the integrated gpu is off) I recently bought and installed the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO and am wondering if I have done something wrong. I am concerned that I have put to much thermal paste...

Hello, I have a A10-5800K FM2 build which is reaching very high temperatures. I would like to purchase a cheap CPU cooler which will allow for overclocking (just a little bit) and is good quality. I have looked at the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO and am concerned it will not fit in my case...

Hello, I recently build my first PC and was wondering if I could overclock my RAM. My RAM is Team Group Zeus Overclocking Memory (according to team group's website it is made for overclocking) its stock speed is 1600 mhz and its timings are 6-6-6-24 when I apply its only XMP profile. Ideally, I...

Hello, Do all these parts work together? I am worried that the GPU won't have enough power and a 6 pin pcie connector for even more power. Could you recommend me a cheap yet good quality motherboard that can ship to Australia? GPU: SAPPHIRE R7 260X 2GB GDDR5 OC; 1150Mhz/6600Mhz DVI/HDMI/DP...

Hello, I wanted to include a Sapphire Radeon R7 265 2GB GDDR5 DVI-I / DVI-D / HDMI / DP Dual-X PCI-Express Graphics Card in my new build however, it requires extra power from a 1x6 pin connector. What is a 1x6 pin connector and where does it plug in? From the power supply to the GPU or pose...

Hello, I am new to building PC's so I am unsure if all these parts will work together. I have a small budget of roughly $580. (I don't really want to spend much more than that if possible) So far the build is at the top of my budget so I really can't afford much more. I am worried about the...
