    PC keeps crashing during gaming when reaching a certain temp threshold

    Hi, so basically when I start up a game it runs fine for a while, until my temps reach around 70 C for the GPU and 50 C for the CPU. By then it varies from game to game whether it crashes to a blue screen(see minidump below) or just to the desktop. The games during which the temps stay below 60...

    My PC has been acting really weird for the last 2 weeks, can't figure out the problem

    So where do I start.... 2 weeks ago, my 3 months old HDD got corrupted(probably because I moved it around too much after we had moved to another house). Anyway, I issued a RMA and got my new HDD a week later, and immedeathly I encountered a problem when my mobo wouldn't recognize the HDD, as it...

    My PC won't turn on?

    Since a few days ago my PC wouldn't turn on when I pressed the power button, until I opened the side panel from my case, pressed down on some cables(which were already secure),put it back on and then miraculously it turned on(which is obviously very weird). Now it won't turn on at all, and...

    Temps too high? (MSI R9 280X)

    So I assembled my build today, and after I stress tested my build with Furmark the temps reached around 90 degrees after 10 minutes.....The GPU load was 100%, but is it normal for it to reach such a high temp after such a short time, even if it was at 100% load? This worries me a lot, because I...

    Choosing between 2 PSUs

    After a lot of Googling, I have pinpointed my list to these 2 PSUs: -XFX Pro 550W -Corsair CX600M I know the XFX is higher quality, but unfortunately it ships in one week. So I wanted to know if the difference in quality justifies waiting one extra week before I can assemble my build. Also both...

    Worries about mobo and GPU

    So I decided to buy this mobo: Asrock H81M-HDS, from the reviews it seems like a good mobo, but some people complain that there is no space for a GPU with 2 slots and which is longer than 18 cm(R9 280X in this case). Does anybody else have this mobo who can say whether such a GPU can fit on it?
