    Question Can a Hard drive causes stutter and fps drops

    I want to say no, because hard drives usually don't effect framerates. But perhaps the game sometimes has to load new parts of the map, and your HDD can't keep up. But I wouldn't look at the HDD first. Try to check your temperatures during these events and see what it shows. Maybe you're getting...

    Cheapest quad-monitor GPU

    Yes, but it is not what we seek, unfortunately. I think I'm going to go with this, just to be sure. Although the flatscreens support DisplayPort input, they do not support DaisyChain. But it still means I have to get a GPU that supports it, since Integrated Intel does support more than three...

    Cheapest quad-monitor GPU

    Thanks for the replies! The computer is used for standard office applications, but also runs two flatscreens (on the wall) that constantly display security footage. Currently the system is used with one monitor for actual working, and the other two to display the said footage, but we want to...

    Cheapest quad-monitor GPU

    Thanks for the quick answers! Not at the moment, I don't have access to this computer all the time. I might be able to check it somewhere next week. But if possible, I will check. Am I right that if it supports is, pretty much any GPU will work because it only needs to run the extra monitor...

    Cheapest quad-monitor GPU

    Hi, I'm looking for a cheap GPU that supports at least 4 displays. Currently the computer has 3 monitors connected (all Full HD) to it's iGPU (Intel Haswell) using: - VGA - Display port - DVI-D It is a pre-build system with a cheap motherboard which I don't think it supports monitor sharing...

    All webpages/processes/launchers are extremely slow

    To be sure it's not a driver issue, download all newest drivers for your device. Go to the original support website from the manufacturer and search for the newest drivers for your device. To test if your HDD is the problem, you should run some tests on it. I use WD's tool for this

    New RAM - Dominator Platinum or something cheaper?

    Corsair Vengeance 4x16GB @ 2400Mhz €294 Corsair Dominator 4x16GB @3333Mhz €549 Corsair Dominator 4x16GB @3466Mhz €569 Site I buy from Direct link to a list of RAM that selected I hope this clears it up a bit. It confuses me where the extra frequency is worth the extra price. I know, and it...

    New RAM - Dominator Platinum or something cheaper?

    I'm considering to upgrade my system with a new CPU, Motherboard and RAM. I want to go all-in and buy the new i7-6950x with an Asus Rampage board. I'd have to get new RAM since I don't have DDR4 yet. Since I'm already going all-in, and those Corsair Dominator Platinums look the best, I was...

    Best hdd for archiving in raid

    It depends on what kind of RAID-card you're using. If you're using a dedicated card, you should go for RAID-5 (which means you have a minimum of three disks, where one disk can crash without losing data in your array). If you're using a build-in RAID-chip on your motherboard, RAID-5 would be...

    Standby/Sleepmode automatically awakes within a few minutes

    I'm not sure what to call it, but let's say standby. Hi, I have a desktop where I do most of my work. Sometimes I want to leave it on so I don't lose the files I am working on, however, my desktop is pretty noisy and consumes a lot of power. I want to be able to put my PC to standby and...

    how long is a long time formatting my wd passport ultra.... i keep hearing going to take some time but it's been 14 hrs....

    Depends on how big your drive is and the way you format is. The usual way people format drives is the "quick format" tool in Windows, if you used this, it should take no more than a minute.. If you chose to manually fully format your drive, it could take several hours, maybe more, depending on...

    Random jump in free space

    Perhaps something happened with the files from Nvidia Shadowplay, or some stored games on steam. It is not usual that such amounts of space are suddenly cleared, unless a specific program that contained that much data drastically changed his storage-method. Perhaps something moved to the cloud...
