Alright sweet, glad that it's at least that and I haven't been doing something wrong this whole time

The most stable overclock I have managed to do is 4.5ghz on a 6600k with 1.36v on the vcore. I can kinda reach 4.6ghz at 1.4v, but I start to get bluescreens sometimes. I have an ASUS Z170-AR motherboard, running an XMP profile for my 3000mhz RAM. Looking around I can see that people can do a...

Is there some way of not having to connect both to the GPU? This same setup was working fine a while ago but upon trying it again it doesn't work, the monitor connected to the motherboard doesn't power off

Basically the title of the thread above, but I'll go in a bit more depth. I want my computer screens to turn off when idle for 15 minutes. The one connected to my GPU turns off fine, no problems there. However, the second monitor connected to the motherboard still displays. More specifically...

I have decided to upgrade from an SSD/HDD storage solution to full SSD. I wanna get a 1TB SSD for absolutely everything, and put the old storage in another hand-me-down PC that I have. Will I be able to use the windows key I have on the old SSD to the new one? Any issues to be aware of?

Fellow aussie here, prices on hardware are always extremely tough. Try and find something local so you can save on shipping, but PC Case Gear is probs your best bet for something nationwide. That's brand new though, and to be honest, I would have to agree with zoltan. Your best bet for that...

OK all good, I'll see - probably not a total deal breaker depending on how it turns out. Thanks so much for your help!

I actually saw that about mining just now - What is the problem with SLI when mining? Only problem is that I have mine set up to start 10 minutes after I've left my PC to idle. It would be worse to swap that automated process for having to turn SLI off and on constantly. Is SLI COMPLETELY...

I should say right here that I live in Australia, so tech prices have a huge hike where I am. I either have to ship it and get massive tax and shipping prices, or buy locally where it is somehow even more expensive. Ideally, I would go with ZRace's solution of selling my current GPU and getting...

First off, I have a 6600k OC'd to 4.2 ghz without upping the voltage. I have 16gb of RAM, and a GTX 1070 Strix - one of the binned cards they sell for, like, 10 bucks cheaper. I have money burning a hole in my wallet and noticed that most games on my 144hz 1080p monitor (asus vg248qe) don't...

Even though I used to have it working 2 days ago, Moonlight streaming on my phone from my PC doesn't work anymore. I have restarted both my phone and PC, reinstalled GeForce Experience, turned the gamestream option off and on, everything. After looking in the install path for the streaming...

I have a GTX 1070 strix, and with my overclock and 'prefer maximum performance' in the NVIDIA control panel I have to sacrifice my PC being quiet just so that I don't have temps in excess of 62 degrees in idle. This is solved if I go to maximum power saving (adaptive doesn't seem to make a...

Perfect. Managed to get it working with Fraps and AIDA. Thanks!

Sorry, probably should have included that in the original post. I only use the second monitor for things like YouTube, Spotify and whatever else - I have a 144hz panel as my main monitor for games, would be a nightmare on my eyes to spread it across that and the 60hz one :P I'll try the AIDA...

Just wanted to ask if there was a program that existed that displayed the FPS of the first monitor somewhere on the second monitor. This is just because I like seeing my FPS but all counters get in the way somehow, whether it be HUD elements or the beautiful scenery. I know that this is a...
