    will corsair vs450 be enough for my system?

    Definitely powerful enough, but doesn't leave much room to upgrade and its a fairly low quality PSU. Just remember that when you get a cheap PSU you're risking EVERYTHING in your computer. I recommend a minimum rating of 80+gold but that's personal preference. many people do just fine on...

    SSD Or GPU Upgrade?

    One thing I forgot to mention, I've got a buyer for my current GPU that's willing to pay $110 for it so if I did GPU first, in a few days I could afford the ssd. I've got $147 save right now, and make about $60 a week in tips on top of my paycheck. So if I play my cards right I can have both...

    SSD Or GPU Upgrade?

    I've got a fairly solid build, however I find the system a bit sluggish at times. I know throwing an ssd in would help tremendously. But I also need to be able to play all games at 1080p maxxed. Right now my build is CPU:AMD FX-8320@4.5 GPU:SAPPHIRE R9 270X RAM:8GB 1600 DDR3 MOBO:ASUS M5A99FX...

    Confusion with webcam?

    I knew it was probably fake, but I'd trust newegg to get rid of the fake sellers. I was thinking the Logitech c525.

    Confusion with webcam?

    I found a webcam on newegg that claims to be REALLY good for the price. It's $25, does 4k pictures, and 1600x1200 video at 30fps. For $25 that's a steal. The manufacturer is Corn. Model number is DZ-SXT-001. http://

    GPU fans spin and stop repeatedly. Computer won't boot.

    I swapped out the GPU for an older hd7770 and the fan kicked on, but I still had no video, keyboard, or mouse and still have to hard reset to turn it off Mobo mabye?

    GPU fans spin and stop repeatedly. Computer won't boot.

    Well, I finished some upgrades a few days ago and everything was working fine. I shut it down last night before I went to bed by alt+f4 and everything seemed normal. I went to boot it up about 20 minutes ago and I got no video. It never booted, and never detected my keyboard or mouse. So I...

    New build no display

    If youve got any spare parts, such as an old gpu or ram, id throw them in there and see if that fixes anything. if not, you know your ram and gpu are good and its probably just the bios that needs to be flashed. Worst case, you have to RMA the board and wait for a new one.
