    Graphics card to run GTA V at 1080p 60fps on max settings

    My current build has a 500W power supply. Given my Hyper 212 EVO, Crucial BallistX 8gb of RAM, my WD 7200 rpm hard drive and my AsRock z97 Extreme4 Mobo, would I be able to use an r9 380 in terms of TDP with my EVGA 500B? If so I'll go with that, but if not could I use a gtx 970? I'm really...

    Graphics card to run GTA V at 1080p 60fps on max settings

    I wrote 290x instead of 270x but I've changed it now

    Graphics card to run GTA V at 1080p 60fps on max settings

    I am looking for an upgrade that will let me run GTA V at 1080p 60fps with max settings. I have an i5-4690k for my CPU which should be up to the job. My graphics card, however, needs upgrading if I'm to achieve this. Some framerate drops are okay but I don't want anything below 45 fps. I don't...

    CPU fan spinning, but doing nothing.

    My Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO saved the day! My stock heatsink's clips were faulty, so I got no contact to the chip. The chip doesn't seem to have been damaged. I highly recommend this to anyone with this problem who may see this in the future.

    CPU fan spinning, but doing nothing.

    Hi all, I'm OP, and I've ordered a Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO, due to arrive tomorrow. I'll see how that works.

    CPU fan spinning, but doing nothing.

    My CPU is an i5-4690k with the default heatsink and fan. Hello all, my CPU fan is doing diddly squat. According to RealTemp, I reach 208 degrees F, or 98 degrees C, AT IDLE. I can look in my case through some fan holes and see that it is indeed running. When I ran a 3DMark Skydiver test, I...

    Hardware not performing correctly

    I tried using the MSI Gaming App, and even in OC Mode, Skyrim still runs worse than it should.

    I have my turtle beack x12 headset plugged in correctly but still it is using the built in mic. I have already changed the mic

    You may need to update your Realtek drivers, if what flamefire999 said doesn't work.

    Hardware not performing correctly

    So at Christmas I upgraded to an MSI R9 270x 4GB, and all was well, I was getting the performance I'd expected. Then two days ago, I upgraded to an Intel i5-4690k. Not wanting to have driver issues, I reinstalled Windows. I installed all of the necessary drivers with the new Mobo, having...

    Worth it to Crossfire 270x 4gb?

    My current build is: First off, I'm upgrading in a couple of weeks to an i5-4690k with an Asrock Extreme4 motherboard. Second, I know I need a better Power Supply so I'm planning to upgrade to a Rosewill Capstone 750w. I want to know if the performance gains are worth it to Crossfire my Msi...
