So then will the stores have them in stock again? Because I'm not buying anything from these people

I'm looking to upgrade from my r9 380 to an RX 480, but I can't find any in stock in Microcenter, Amazon, eBay, etc. So, where are they?! I read they're being "mined" because of the new AMD card; though I don't know what that means.

Hi I overclocked my i5-6600k cpu from 3.5ghz to 4.0ghz by changing the multiplier to 40. But every time I go back into the BiOS, the "targeted cpu" says 3500mhz while "cpu ratio" stays at 40. Here's a picture of what I mean. But if I re-enter 40, the "targeted cpu" changes to 4000mhz. Here's...

I'm watching some Digital Foundry videos and it seems like console version of games are always getting (for a lack of better words) "torn up" for inconsistent frame rates while the pc versions shown have wildly inconsistent frame rates (with VYSNC off). Why is this? Why does it seem like when...

Thank you all for your input. I'm going to try messing around with AMD freesync (I can't use fast-sync because I don't have nvidia). If this fixes the problem permanently, I'll respond back with a solution

Hi I just replaced an i3 with an i5, and the process went fine. But I'm noticing that most of the times, my games' (like GTA v and overwatch) FPS is wildly fluctuating. When I start a game, it'll either be: 1) a perfect 60fps or 2) will literally bounce between 59-60 fps every second while I...

Thanks for the answers, guys. I actually wanted to upgrade it since it only costs $80 for me (traded in i3 for it). I knew I wasn't going to get a huge bump, but was expecting at least 3-5 fps. It was shocking that some games, like Dragon's Dogma, seemed to have lost about 1-2 fps (on high)...

Hi I just recently replaced my i3-6100 3.7ghz with an i5 6600k and overclocked it to 4ghz. When I rune Heaven Benchmark, there doesn't seem to be an improvement. In fact, I seemed to have "lost" about avg 1 fps, according to the stress test results. I know my gpu isn't very good, but is this...

Hi I recently installed a new i5-6600k with an 212 EVO fan for the very first time. I noticed I spilled a little thermal paste on the side off the golden top (not on the green circuit board, but the crevasse right above it). It kind of looks like this except not on the circuit board and not...
