    Gigabyte GA Z170X drivers vd not win 8.1 supported?

    Just double checked that the cd works by booting off another hdd with the same os and even the same build number. Works fine on the second, but not my primary. I have no idea why its not supporting the os on my primary.

    RAM's Frequency does not match, is it OK ?

    They don't appear to be too different in your pics. Either way, mismatched ram won't cause a bsod by itself. It won't even cause many problems, I ran with 4 mismatched sticks for years and only rwalised when I recently upgraded. The problem with sifferent frequencies is that you limit your top...

    Gigabyte GA Z170X drivers vd not win 8.1 supported?

    Gigabyte GA Z170X drivers vd not win 8.1 supported?

    So I recently upgraded my computer to a skylake design. I went through hours of hassle getting everything working, dealing with a borked hdd, bad ssd install and then win 7 crappery. Long story short, part of my problems were that my win7 install usb has no native usb 3.0 support (apparently)...

    How to protect my self from damaging components when changing gpu

    Static and breaking pins are your biggest concerns. As long as you touch the case (like everyone's already suggested) and don't work while on carpet, you just have to make sure you don't jam plugs into sockets like a battering ram and you'll be right.

    Graphic cards weird temperatures

    Sounds like some connectors might have come loose and arent sending temp data properly. Try unplugging your gpu and checking all your wires and plugs are attached and clean. While you're at it, make sure your other gear is fine too.

    should i cover my pc with cloth while i am traveling?

    As long as it's not turned on, it's probably not a bad idea to keep dust out. You'd only need to cover the fan vents and maybe the buttons, though. Just make sure you uncover the vents when it's in use.

    Which computer is better for games?

    That computer was a bit expensive for me ($2400 AUD!). I decided to look arround on del.com.au and found this: http://configure.ap.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=au&cs=aubsd1&kc=&l=en&oc=T220111AU&s=bsd&vw=builder What do you think of that one?

    Which computer is better for games?

    Well, I've been looking for a new gaming computer for a while now, since the one i have is too old to upgrade any more. I was wondering which of these computers would be best for 30+ FPS on medium-high settings, I'm sick of 8 fps on the lowest settings in 1v1 matches. :( Well, first of all we...

    Hiya. I'm just wondering if i can trust this new-zealand website. I was looking around for a disk copy of the orange box and found this website selling it for about $40 AUD. Oh, i was also wondering if i could order L4D2 from there, and have it work on my Australian steam account?

    What causes my game Company of Heroes to crash?

    I had a problem like this a while back. Does this happen for multiple games with 3D rendering? If so, uninstall your current graphics driver and install the one that game with your video card.
