Thank you good sir. You cleared the doubt I was having. Now just one last question, my card is a GTX 970, Asus Strix like I said. And I'll be buying the following monitor, LC24FG70FQ. I'll have to use the DisplayPort from the GPU to monitor for full 144 hz capability or HDMI port?

So I read about it, loads of comments, but none reached a conclusion. Some said yes, some said no. Basic thing is, if I am to use a 144 Hz monitor (which I'm planning to buy), would there be any extra power consumption of my system mainly due to the GPU, in comparison with a 60 Hz monitor? My...

Ha ha thanks. Seems like an issue with either the latest version of Magician app or Windows 10 anniversary update, whatever.

Its under AHCI mode mate. There is no IDE mode in my BIOS as far as I could see anyway.

Hey guys I just got this SSD two days back and after installing the Samsung Magician app I see that AHCI mode is not activated! I checked in BIOS, and there are only two modes, RAID and AHCI and I am sure that RAID isn't active anyway! So what about that? http://i.imgur.com/L7gBhxK.png And...

Thanks. The thing is as I have been reading for past few days about Skylake OCing and all, I have understood this much. I shouldn't change the DRAM voltage of 1.35V, as that is the mentioned voltage of my RAMs, F4-3000C15D, to run optimally on 3000 MHz. Now I have been told to reduce the CPU...

Just to be sure, the 6700K turbo speed is 4.2 GHz isn't it? So won't it be 4.2 GHz vs 4.8 GHz? I am sure a demanding game will stress the CPU enough so it runs on turbo 4.2 GHz speed? Or am I wrong here?

My RAMs are 3000 MHz G.Skill RipjawsV, and I am forced to use the XMP profile in BIOS, to have them run on 3000 MHz, cause my motherboard Asus Z170 Pro Gaming doesn't support more than 2100 MHz without XMP. Now when I select the XMP profile you are given this option...

You should mention your ambient temp along with your system temp, otherwise comparisons/comment won't be correct.

@ubercake, Thanks for the reply. Well when I applied the new TIM two months back, I checked it, and it was almost same as of now. And I also applied it in the way you said. What's your ambient temp? I am sure it's a lot lesser than mine. Anyway, if, the CPU temp goes above 75°C then what could...

Hi, As the title asks, I'd like to know how far a i7 950 Processor temperature could go up? I was playing Crysis 2 today, and after 90 mins my temps were around 73-71-71-71°C. Yes my ambient temp is high at 34.2°C. I don't like to keep AC on all time. Now is that mentioned temp can be taken...
