    Odd screen "flicker" in Steam games only

    Hey guys, So just yesterday I noticed a "flash" or "flicker" of a white and blue dotted line and black box filling in the area below near the bottom of my laptop display. It seems that it doesn't flicker in any special shaped pattern, but just randomly with the occasional full-screen black...

    Best headphones under $200 CAD?

    Hey guys, It's been a while since I've been on this site and whoa it has changed. Well, to get straight to the point, I'm basically looking for a new pair of headphones because I recently broke my M40x's, which were great and lasted me 3 solid years (I dropped them one too many times). I was...

    Ok so I have a Dell Inspiron 7559 laptop which has a HDMI 1.4a port, and I was wondering if 1.4a supports 60hz (or more)? I know its a stupid question but I couldn't find anything online and I would like this confirmed before I buy a monitor. All answers appreciated!

    Need some help choosing softbox lighting

    So I do product reviews in my small-ish room, primarily on a table as I speak and I've decided to buy a softbox lighting kit after using lamps and whatever I can find around the house for so long. I found a kit on Amazon that outputs 1600w, has good reviews for YouTube videos, and is in my...

    Canon 70D auto focus

    Seems like you're mistaken on how to change the AF mode. Theres 2 ways to do that, you can either click the "AF" button on top of the camera, and the options will show up on the screen. The other way is to click "Q", and at the very top left you should see "AF" and a small square symbol. Simply...
