Sorry I don't even know how to use this thing lmao

This is my first ever gaming PC I've built, it has a GTX 970 paired with an Intel Core i7 4790 (non K version). It was a beast few years ago, now things have changed and it's showing how fast it's aging with newer games not performing to my liking. It's time for an upgrade and I've been...

Alright I did it! I cleared the CMOS again but without putting the video card, instead using the onboard GPU, it boots now! Then I needed to go to the bios menu and set it to use an external GPU, and done! All back to normal. Really hope this helps one of you guys

Sad to see that no one came up with a suggestion, maybe because I posted on the wrong section, idk. I went on by myself, and one thing that I tried was make a "breadboard" basically is: Removing the whole motherboard from the case, then place it on a non conductive surface, such as the...

Hello, please I need help, I'm desperate right now. So I tried to clear the BIOS by removing and placing the battery, did as follows: - Removed battery, waited 5 minutes, placed the battery again, plunged the power cable and tried to turn it on. Nothing, nothing happens at all, no response...

Good evening tom's hardware experts, I'm currently trying to make a tough decision on my own and I thought why not ask for help. I can currently buy a new video card, the GTX 1070 OR a new monitor that has a nice resolution of 1440p / a ultra wide option from LG. If I buy the new monitor I'll...

Hello Tom's Hardware experts. I'm playing around with a GTX 970 and I've been overclocking it to 1500Mhz. I was thinking if I can increase the voltage to push a little bit more, but I've never messed around with the voltages. Will I damage the card by increasing it to +12.5mV? This is what...

Hello Tom's Hardware. So that's the question on the title, is it worth it? I don't have the motherboard, nor RAM for the new i7, so I'll have to pay for that as well, is it worth it? What are the main benefits of the new DDR4 RAM? I just game and do the casual stuff. Specs: - OS: Windows 10...

Hey Tom's hardware experts, I've been trying to over clock my GTX 970 and I made it to the 1500mhz. So far so good, but I am in doubt as if is there any difference between these over clocking software. I first tried with MSI Afterburner, all I've done is change the clock speed to +260...

Hello Tom's Hardware experts. Thanks for visiting my post. I'm willing to choose the best solution for the best answer. I bought a GTX 970 reference EVGA model. It's not overclocked, it has a blower fan, similar to the reference model. It runs hot, really hot. When gaming it goes all the way up...

Hello Tom's Hardware experts, and thanks for visiting my thread. I recently upgraded from a GTX 960 to a GTX 980. The 960 is an EVGA SSC with the ACX 2.0 cooler. The 980 is the reference model, the one that has the LEDs, from NVidia, I mean no board partners, just the one NVidia that looks like...
