Thanks for the reply! Ran Prime95 small with AVX disabled for around 5 minutes and was around a 7 degree difference. With 80 being the lowest and 87 being the highest. I probably won't mess with the heatsink unless I get bored and feel like tinkering with things 🤓

Just ran Cinebench R23 on Multi Core and then Single Core (first pic multi, second single). I noticed on Single core, 4 and 5 were constantly hotter than the rest and has about a 20c difference @ max values. I know 10c is fairly common but 20c.. Maybe I should just reseat the darn thing and see...

Hello all. Just completed a build running a 10900k (turbos up to 5.1GHz) and Noctua NH-D15. Everything went well during the install; put the right amount of thermal paste using Noctua's included NT-H1 and eyeballed it the best I could when it came to lowering the heatsink onto the CPU. Once I...

Just bought a 1TB Evo SSD and was wanting to install it tonight. The first and only (didn't upgrade from 7/8 or anything) OS that is on my current HDD is Windows 10 Home. Does the license register with the motherboard in my computer? If so, all I would have to do is just unplug my HDD and...

Actually, I'm just going to buy the single 1TB and use that until it gets full, and I will just uninstall games that I don't play anymore and I will try and keep my fingers away from the F12 key. Thanks dude

Oh yeah man. My 2TB HDD is a little more than half full. I also take a lot of screenshots while playing games on Steam and that can take up quite a bit of space after a while.

Amazon was selling the 2TB Evo @ $650 and now they seem to be sold out! Best Buy does have the 1TB on sale for $310 and I was wondering if I should just go ahead and get a couple of 1's..? Any speed difference with having 2 1tb's as opposed to a single drive? I hear that you can run raid arrays...

Windows 10 home 64-bit Yeah I know how to set up a router. But I just did a factory reset and it seems to have fixed the issue.. For now anyways.. However I did uncheck automatic updates, because I believe that I killed the power right in the middle of a firmware update. Lol, anyways yeah it...

When trying to connect to my ea9500 it gives off an authentication error on my S7 and my dad's S5. Also my iPod touch does not want to connect either. This mtl rules out the wireless devices. Any wired connection works fine though. I'm in the router settings on chrome and I am thinking about...

Hello Aswin! So your budget is around $360 USD. I suggest the BenQ XL2430T. It has a max refresh rate of 144hz, a 1ms response time and is 1920x1080. It is a great gaming monitor for your budget and is highly recommended among gamers. It also includes an s-switch, which can easily switch to a...

I have the same problem in the Naval Strike 'Wave Breaker' map when the submarine in the middle objective collapses. I run a GTX 970 and an i7-4790k. It only lasts until the animation has ended (around 5 seconds), then it jumps back up into the triple digits. Might not be your problem, but I...

Hello! I am thinking about getting the BenQ XL2430T 1080p monitor from Newegg for the faster refresh rate (60hz, 120hz or 144hz), response time, and higher resolution. I currently have a 1600x900 HP S2031 60hz monitor. So what do you guys think the FPS difference would be in games like BF4...
