okay, well I cant install crystal disk info since it keeps giving me error messages but If what you say is true about 150 MB/s, I mean I can load skyrim in two minutes, which is like 17.5 GB, but then my speed must be (17.5/2)/60=145 MB/s, but my disk says 2.1 MB??? so is my computer okay? Are...

so does that mean that the motherboard won't fit? And if I do build my own PC, does the motherboard come with an off/on button?

There is a little note at the bottom of the pcpartpicker page at http://pcpartpicker.com/p/6sqDMp "ASRock Z97 EXTREME4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard has an onboard USB 3.0 header, but the Cooler Master HAF 912 ATX Mid Tower Case does not have front panel USB 3.0 ports." Does this mean they are...

I have been researching my perfect computer for months now and I pretty much know what components I want for a gaming computer: gtx 970 and i5 4690K. However, this build would cost me like $ 1200-1500 and I already know that nVidia and AMD have announced new gpus and cpus which will be 2-4 times...

OK thank you guys, I will look into retailers for the parts you listed, thank you tiny voices and Bhavneet Pannu. I just hope the parts come with a three year warranty or otherwise I can get a premade custom pc. Thanks!

and would the double hard drive ruin my performance? The old HD is the main one. Maybe just go with a new WD 1TB? would a fx 8350 and amd r9 280x be able to do the same as 4690K and gtx 970? I mean 60fps at 1080p?

Well I have a i7 laptop with integrated graphics and 8GB RAM on lowest settings and 30 fps and sometimes skyrim CTD but I guess you could fix that with a mod and a better pc. " You do not need 16gb RAM for gaming. 8gb will be plenty. The build posted above is not bad. Change the CPU to a 4690k...

I have been looking for pc parts for months but am uncertain what I exactly am looking for. I want a PC to play Skyrim with lots of mods, many of them heavy overhauls and expansions on ultra with at least 30 fps. I have $ 2000 but do not want to spend all of them, but I'd prefer a computer that...

Well, do you guys at least know where I could get free broken down gpu's so I could practice soldering them? Where did you guys learn about how to solder solder electronics? Please, I am new, so any links to tutorials would be very helpful

How would I find what is wrong with it? Should I use a multimeter? And how would I use it? (I found a tutorial about how to use a multimeter: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/how-to-use-a-multimeter ) I have seen pictures of GPUs with missing capacitors and resistors, but then how'd you...
