I'm currently studying for my MTA network fundamentals and I can't seem to find a straight answer for what a security zone is. I gather it is just a group of systems that all have the same level of access/permissions and that the list contains the IP addresses of these systems. Is this all it is...

Yeah sorry I don't really think there is one. I would try the usual reseat everything in case that works, but the fact the cards artifacting just points straight to bad card. Although you never know someone might know a trick for it.

Yeah I would RMA it. Hope it goes well mate.

Do you happen to have a spare graphics card lying around that works. Could try that and if it works then you can RMA the card. If you don't I would try to find an old pcie graphics card that works on ebay or something and try it out to see if it works. In the UK where I am theres a used...

That seems very unusual. I would maybe try unplugging the ssd, and then plugging it into a different sata header on the mother board. If it boots then I would plug it back into the orginal sata port and see if it works. Also maybe a shot in the dark but you could try connecting it to a different...

No worries mate. That should be plenty of space for the operating system and basic apps and you should be able to get a few decent games on there. And like you said you can put in another hard drive later down the line. Enjoy building and using your new PC :D

Looks good so far. What is your budget for the build?

Might be the bios version. The i5 3470 is an ivybridge processor. H61 and P61 chipsets need a bios update prior to Ivybridge CPUs.

Really depends how much you want to spend and what its for. Only things that look viable would be the ram and maybe change the hard drive to an ssd.

Looks pretty good to me. Later down the line you could upgrade to an i5 or i7 and the graphics card. Only things I would change would be to try and go for a better quality power supply or perhaps one with more wattage for good headroom. Also try and see if you could get a small ssd for the os...

The H110 chipset is designed to work with the skylake processors. For the motherboard to be compatible with a Kabylake processor the bios must be updated. Some motherboards are already running updated bios's however it really depends where you get it from. If the motherboard isn't already...

Firstly on the power supply, For that card I would say no. If it was a better quality unit with 80 plus bronze/silver/gold etc then I would say it should be alright. However the fact that it only has one 6 pin connector makes me think it wouldn't be able to power that card. Best thing to do is...

Right turns out some advanced option in my bullguard was preventing gta from working, you have disable "allow bullguard to protect its compoments against termination"

Ok i have tried everything and have now given up, im gonna take it back to game and get a new one, if that fails i guess its time for me to pre order just cause 3.
