Okay i did some googling and think these 3 will work just fine: Cooler Master RGB LED Controller: https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/coolers/rgb-accessories/rgb-led-controller/ Deepcool RGB 350 Strips: http://deepcool.com/product/dcoolingaccessory/2016-03/12_4814.shtml Phanteks Halos 140mm...

Hey Guys, I need some help regarding RGB light effects I want to add in my existing system which was purchased in 2015. My PC Specs are: ~MOBO: MSI X99A Gaming 7 ~CPU: i7-5820K @4.0 GHz ~CPU Cooler: Swiftech H320 ~GPU: MSI GTX 980Ti 6G gaming edition ~RAM: 16 GB DDR4 Corsair Vengeance...

I have noticed this as well. I recently built a new rig and was benchmarking it and there i noticed that MSI AB was showing more consumption of VRAM than the actual hardware VRAM on my G-card. Like when i was playing\testing shadow of mordor, my VRAM consumption on GTX 980 Ti went to 6402 MB...

You need USB 3.0 devices to take advantage of the transfer speed it offers. Keyboards, mice & similar peripheral devices don't require such high speeds so that's why they're USB 2.0 devices and don't need anything more than 2.0 port.

Hey, When choosing a case there are few things that you should look at: 1) Its performance & build quality. How much breathing space it provides for better cooling your components. That is, how well is its air flow. IMO all high end rigs should be put in full tower cases. Proper organized...

Yeah that cooler wasn't available and neither was Kraken X61 unfortunately. I was planning on importing Kraken but it was costing me more than H320. So i went ahead with Swiftech H320 that has a triple copper radiator and is supposedly very good and less noisy. Hope it's worth it & actually good...

Hey woody, If that's the case then looks like I will be buying GTX 980 Ti without waiting for AMD release. You just reminded of an option that's disabled in Premiere Pro since my AMD Graphics card doesn't have CUDA. Thanks for reminding me! Also I was just informed that MSI GTX 980 Ti 6G...

I bought my old PC components on 31-10-2009. And this X58 system has served me very very well for 5 years, 7 months and it has been a good run. Only thing I upgraded was my Graphics Card from HD 5870, HD 5970 to R9 280X & like tried SSD on SATA II. And as far as gaming is concerned it can still...

@Woody Hey thanks for the response woody, I know you help out a LOT of people, so I appreciate your response. And gaming is my passion which I tend to do on weekends or whenever I'm not working but this PC is mainly for my work that requires me to use Adobe softwares, Corel x7 etc and as per...

Hey guys, I have been using my old system for like 5 years now and I have finally decided to do a major overhaul to my current system and have gathered all the florins to purchase it lol. Although I'm somewhat puzzled the more I research and read about it as I don't want to get anything wrong...

My issue is resolved and it turns out that my graphics card wasn't the culprit here and is actually fine. My system RAM was causing this, it was running at 2000 MHz with 9-9-9-24 timings and command rate 2T. Once i restored my PC into stock settings then graphical issues i was facing were gone...

Some screenshots of the problems:

My motherboard is compatible with R9 280x and both the BIOS of MOBO (ex-58 extreme) and GPU is updated. I did ask Gigabyte guys before buying the GPU and they said that 7970 runs fine on that board so no reason why R9 280x wouldn't. I also ASUS guys when my card was manufactured and whether it's...
