I also understand I can use Intel® XTU to overclock the CPUs however can someone explain to me how this turbocharging works because all the cords are set at 2.4 GHz we don't they automatically just scaled the 3.4 GHz if it needs it why would I need to overclock then what it significantly improve...

I'm trying to figure out how to get the most out of my laptop and it seems that the bottleneck would be the graphics card at a GTX 860m? I can overclock the GPU about 10% from my test, but heaven states the graphics is onboard graphics x256mb as seen in pictures, however when I'm running the...

Just thought I could get a dongle that had HDMI in using my video card. Doesn't even nessarily have to use it just screen capturing the xbox

Yeah the specifications just say it's an HDMI output I can't believe such a high and laptop can be limited just buy a port. Am I really SOL? There is absolutely no cable I could buy to go from Xbox one into the computer you figure there would be an adapter. I have seen ones that turn HDMI out...

It is a pretty high end laptop what is an Fn9 switch how does that work

I have a laptop with a 4K display that I want to use as a display for my Xbox one. It doesn't have an HDMI input. He does have an HDMI output. I tried connecting it to the HDMI output for shits and giggles but no dice. The general consensus is that you can't convert a HDMI output to an HDMI...

Thank you everyone! So, wuld it be worth it at all for just a "performance upgrade" maybe not higher resolutions but, i'll just run at 1080p (1920 x 1080), and possibly go to ultra graphics.... but your saying faster SSD or 16 + G ram won't help. Even for better graphics quality like "ultra" not...

When you say 1080p you mean? 1920 x 1080 ... this is wide screen so wouldn't it have to be 1920 x 1200 or something for it to scale to 3840x2160 pixel

Okay, well at least I know this is normal. How are SSD's measured never really see a spec like Ghz for cpu etc.. (I know comparing apples & oranges) So, i'm out of luck just use 4k for movies? Can I speed up my games at all adding some ram maybe 16gbs or a Faster SSD... again IDK how i qualify...

Hello everyone, first I would like to say thank you in advance. I AM computer literate, however this is my first laptop (only built gaming PCs before.)-- Actually just found out couldn't replace graphics card or anything else isn't replaceable in my laptop as well besides ram and SSD as far as...

Disaster averted, aux cable out from line out on pc into aux-in into receiver. VGA looks better then HDMI indefinitely anyway. Thanks!!! Anything I should know about setting other then what you stsated when using aux for 5.1

Mine did not come with one as far as I know guess i'm SOL any reason why the one that came with it would work and this wouldn't....

I am having some troubles getting my pc to send audio to my surround sound system I have both my cable box and computer hooked up through hdmi and then to the receiver my cable boxes audio works perfectly and even the video for the pc works fine too. My problem is the audio for the PC will not...

Can anyone reccomend a inexspensive A/V receiver I've found some, but none have hdmi inputs. I am going to adapt one of my dvi ports on my HTPC's video card to hdmi and send audio to receiver via the hdmi cable (that will work, right?) Then also have my cable boxes hdmi out to reciever so I...
