    IOMMU ON or OFF?

    So should I turn IOMMU ON or OFF in bios? I'm currently running windows 10 for movies and games and I'm not sure if I'm going to get any benefits if I enable it? Or maybe its going to make my pc slower?

    X99 Black Screen on BIOS

    Also try using a DVI or RGB cable and tell me if it works for you please!

    X99 Black Screen on BIOS

    Hello, these days I bought a new motherboard that has UEFI - MSI 990FXA-GD65 and I learned that I can install the OS with UEFI turned on (windows 8 feature) but my GPU didn't have any UEFI support - Sapphire Radeon HD7950 With boost and I decided to get a modded vbios and everything was fine...

    Replacing a Phenom II X6 1055T

    Your CPU is more then capable of runing latest games on max if your graphics card was high end too! The GT440 is bottlenecking your CPU in games cause its too weak (belive me , i had one of thoose ..) and cause an amd cpu and gpu combo would be much better - get an AMD R7 or R9 GPU and it will...
