I can play the games just fine, the only issue is that hefty new games like Fallout 4 are painfully slow in the loading screens, only making their already slow speeds even worse. I activated the key through Steam as per usual, but the game only loads and plays through a Steam shortcut of the...

I did everything correctly until the very final step. I inserted my Windows 10 USB stick, set up Windows 10 as usual. I chose my language, 64 bit etc. Then, a screen appeared and told me all I had to do now in order to continue was to remove the Windows 10 thumb drive, press the restart button...

Would there be any lagging or choppy FPS? Would it just be a waste of good specs?

When we first found our cat back in 2010, it was a kitten that used to sleep on top of our PC because it was warm. We thought nothing of it at the time, but now, I'm worried that since my PC is going to be in my bedroom after its built that my cat, who is much bigger now, will likely be a static...

It's from Newegg, so there's no risks involved, but I'm really confused about this product. http://www.newegg.com/global/au/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832589063&ignorebbr=1 It's the cheapest one in Australia whilst not being shady, but I'm confused about it. I'm expecting this, when it...

I'm ordering all my parts to build a PC now, but I don't want to order the Windows 10 key too early - if that's even a thing, because I'm worried it will 'expire'. Does this happen?

I've heard 100+ headroom is optimal, and I have just about 160w of headroom. Why should I hike up the price for 750w if it's overkill? Is it a safeguard for potential, future Crossfire (estimated 717w)? My build: http://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/vTkJkT

Assuming I were to buy the CD version of a game, could the file be saved onto some storage device so I won't have to keep inserting discs? The reason why I'm asking is because Amazon has games for insanely cheap prices in comparison to Steam, but I don't want the hassle of using an external...

I plan on using it for gaming, so a button or two on the side would be plus too. I keep digging around, but I'm sure I haven't come across every option.

I know Samsung SSD's are the 'go-to' of sorts, but the value for dollar on this OCZ SSD is ridiculous! 480 gigs for $116 AUD, whereas I could drop about $60 for 120 gigs with Samsung. I've done some digging, but I want to be absolutely sure. Is OCZ a good brand? Will it last me more than a few...

I'm building a PC soon, but I'd like to save money on the OS. My old laptop has Windows 10 on it, and I was wondering if it is possible to use that OS on my future PC, even if that means using my laptops storage. Is this possible?

Assume that I have 2 sticks of 4g ram, totalling 8. Imagine I am playing a gaming title that uses 4g RAM, but also have 2g collectively being used by other miscellaneous applications. There are 2g of unused RAM left over. Would I experience any mild levels of 'emerging' bottlenecks, and would...
