    Rig BSOD's or crashes game when playing on ultra settings.

    I experience BSOD when my PC gets hot. Try installing SpeedFan or try underclocking your GPU. Maybe play on High

    Need some GPU help

    I have BF4. It makes GPUs very hot. I would never recommend and AMD card unless you render a lot of video. Stick with your 760. It's a great card. BF4 has a lot of bugs right now and DICE is working hard to fix it. Play on High for now to keep those temps down to avoid crashes. Try downloading...

    Gtx 650ti In dayz

    I had an EVGA 650 ti 2GB. It ran very well. High settings and even very high. This card had problems when you up the 3D resolution. Not necessary for such an old game. TL;DR It will run 60 frames no problem

    Best Ram for i5-3570 3.4Ghz Ivy Bridge ?

    I have the 3570k. Most DDR3 RAM is pretty standard. I would recommend Corsair Vengeance. It has heat spreaders to keep it cool when overclocking. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145345&ignorebbr=1 If you don't want to spend $85 then this RAM would be just as good at...

    Recommended overclock for i5-3570k?

    I don't think I've ever actually used even half of my VRAM. So that's not a problem. I guess I cpuld up the GPU frequency a bit. Any recommendations? Also my processor is at stock speeds right now. I have read that it can be overclocked to 4.2 without increasing voltages. I'd like to push even...

    Recommended overclock for i5-3570k?

    It seems like from that chart that it raises the minimum FPS of games. I can run anything I've thrown at my PC at maximum graphics. Take Skyrim for example. No problems hitting +60 FPS using FRAPS at Ultra. However after I add a TON of HD mods I have dropped Skyrim to 38 frames. If I could boost...

    Recommended overclock for i5-3570k?

    I like to consider myself a very tech savvy person. I feel I have a firm grasp on how overclocking works.

    Looking for small, attractive ATX case...

    I thought it would be small because the MOBO tray seems a bit high.

    Looking for small, attractive ATX case...

    Thank you, I'm afraid the Corsair may not be able to fix my graphics card or heatsink (height not length). Do you know how tall the motherboard would be to the side?
