    Is there any Dual CPU motherboard LGA1050 ?

    I think you mean LGA 1150. There is no possible way to to have dual cpus such as the 4460. That doesnt exist. Not for 1155 1150 1151 etc. Dual cpus are mainly for servers. Though some rich people to have the dual cpu set ups for gaming but mainly workstations. Its really expensive. You can...

    What is this crack in the CPU

    My girlfriend actually uses daily for browsing and playing sims 3, and sims was pushing it quite hard and its sometimes on for atleast 6 hours or so, so it has held up really well with that defect. Hopefully it will keep running for another few years then. Wish I never found out about it...

    What is this crack in the CPU

    Well I think I just did the worst thing by opening everything up and changing the thermal paste which couldve screwed it up but it turned out even better as it now works with lower temps haha. I was looking on ebay and the motherboard with that cpu and gpu costs aroubd 350-400euro. I paid 530...

    I have an asus rog gl552v. I7 6700hq 8gb ram, 960m 2gb. I was playing csgo and my temps would be around 90 degrees with jumps up to even 98 as highest I decided to change the thermal paste, after opening up the laptop to the bare bone I found a crack beside the cpu and got worried...

    Will switching from 1080p to 1440p stop bottlenecking (3770k & 1080ti)

    The only background things running would be Opera web browser, teamspeak, steam, and a few monitoring apps like nzxts cam and that. Nothing else. Most time opera is off anyway so its just gaming.

    Will switching from 1080p to 1440p stop bottlenecking (3770k & 1080ti)

    Will switching from 1080p to 1440p stop bottlenecking (3770k & 1080ti)

    Do you think my cpu will still be running at 90-100% load even at 1440p or would it reduce to 70-80% or so? Im debating where to go 1440p or 4k and im leaning towards 1440p 144hz as 4k is limited to 60hz.

    Will switching from 1080p to 1440p stop bottlenecking (3770k & 1080ti)

    I've just bought a MSI 1080ti GAMING X, upgrading from the MSI 980ti Gaming G6 and I've noticed that my CPU is running at 90-100% when gaming. I mostly play rainbow six siege but will be getting Battlefield 5 if its any good and might play some Battlefield 1 too. Looking forward to Metro Exodus...

    240mm rad + 120mm fan in CM Mastercase h500p mesh

    Yeah I was wondering about the performance but I don't think ill be overclocking so they'd be enough I think. But If i set the fans to push up through the rad, ill be taking hot air from the middle of the case through the rad and there is a limited exit for the air to escape at the top because...

    240mm rad + 120mm fan in CM Mastercase h500p mesh

    Hi, I will be buying the Cooler master mastercase h500p mesh and I'm deciding which way to have the fans and that set up. I was thinking of buying the Corsair LL120 3 pack and an EVGA CLC 240mm rad, put the rad in the front with the new LL120 fans and was hoping to fit the third 120mm fan above...

    Water cooling a 980ti / 1080ti with an AIO 240Mm - worth it?

    Hi, Currently I have a i7 3770k with an msi gaming 980ti. Im planning on upgrading to a i5 8600k and 1080ti. I will be buying an aio cooler for my cpu, most likely a 240mm rad but I'm considering buying a 240mm for the gpu as well. Im buying the coolers for my current setup then upgrading my...
