    I got VAC banned 80 days ago on my main account... (Steam)

    Hello, I have a question regarding the VAC ban I received after using cheat engine with Black Ops III on my (main) account, and because the VAC ban is on my main account, all of my other games belong on that account too. What I'd really like to know, is if it would be possible to family share...

    32GB or 64GB for Skylake?

    Hello, I'm currently deciding on which RAM to get right now, to upgrade from my existing 8x8(16GB) HyperX Black Fury 2666MHz DDR4 build, and I've got two options: 1. Upgrade from the 16GB to 32GB with my existing HyperX RAM, or 2. Buy a set of 16x16GB RAM in a set of 2 for now, but this is...

    High-End PC running extremerly slow!

    I'm having this issue myself right now. I really can't be bothered to find the specific, individual cause of the problem by the root, so after I'm done completely removing everything to do with Nvidia and reinstalling it, if that doesn't work, I may just do a completely new reinstall of...

    Getting terrible framerate all of the sudden - (high-end PC)

    I've just removed everything to do with Nvidia, but I'll get back to you on that when I've reinstalled it, as nothing is showing on GPU-Z right now. What would I be looking for on PerfCap? The 980 Ti is relatively new, and my whole system isn't even 3 months old, I'm sure the GPU is secure to...

    Getting terrible framerate all of the sudden - (high-end PC)

    Out of nowhere, I decided to boot up my PC one day, and the framerate was terrible. Previously, it managed 60fps stable with every graphical setting turned up to Very High on Metal Gear Solid V. This issue is happening in every game now. It's even happened on Valley Benchmark. I don't know what...

    base 64k ram failure (occasionally), not always

    Thanks for your help! I decided to swap the sticks over to 2&4, did the memtest86 test on them, and it all came back with positive results. I guess the motherboard is configured to look for slots 2&4 when it boots up, so sometimes during a reset, it might be getting confused for not finding any...

    base 64k ram failure (occasionally), not always

    The issue is that on rare occasions, after restarting my PC, it's booted back up on a post beep of 3 short beeps, and I think it might be to do with the pending program restarts from all of the installed software I've been doing from this Windows 10 upgrade. When I read up on what the issue...

    RAM slot 1-3 or 2-4? (dual channel Skylake DDR4)

    My motherboard is an MSI Z170A Gaming Pro, my CPU is an i7 6700K, and my RAM is HyperX Black Fury 2x8 DDR4 2666MHz sticks, and I currently have the two sticks in slots 1&3 as 2&4 didn't boot. The one thing I'm a little on edge about is that in the motherboard manual, it states to put the RAM in...

    Is my PSU fan intake too obstructed by my CPU radiator?

    Hello In my mind, I believe that the system is going to be alright. I'm not 100% sure though, as it would appear that quite a large sum of the fan intake is being blocked by the Corsair H80iGT. The PSU is a Corsair HX1000i platinum, and the fan is designed to start running only when the power...

    What's Good GPU for FX 6300?

    I had an AMD FX 6300 CPU with a GTX 970 (4gb) graphics card, and it ran just great! Only around an 8fps bottleneck on stock 3.5, but perfect for the GTX 970 when overclocked to 4.1GHz.

    Running a PC without case panels on

    Does a closed case improve & assist airflow to all of the individual components, as opposed to running a PC with its side panels off? With the side panels off, could this improve the airflow to the system, or decrease fan performance? Thanks!

    Will my old graphics card be able to hold up MGSV : The Phantom Pain

    Welllll.... If you plan on playing in that resolution, you should be alright, but 60fps stable might be an issue. It also depends if you intend to max out textures, lighting, ultra all of the individual graphical settings. You might be able to get away with putting the basics on medium, but...
