I recently bought a new keyboard which has media keys+volume dial. The volume dial works fine and so do the media keys when watching videos on Youtube. However the overlay is distracting as it's a big block with the picture preview and name/title. I'm just wondering if its possible to hide that...

Thanks guys, will keep the 6600k for longer then. 8 cores/12 threads wouldn't have a huge impact in todays games ay? I've seen forums/tech youtubers seem to praise the 2600 price and spec wise performance it offered compared to 8th gen i5. My i5+z170 2015 msrp cost more than the current...

Hey all, I've had a 6600k oc to 4.4ghz since 2015. Recently got a GTX1080 to replace my 1070 but sometimes I feel its not using its full potential in some recent games/stable or above 144fps. I play at 1080p and will eventually upgrade to 1440p 144hz. I'm wondering will the 2600 oc to 4.2ghz be...

Hey all, I'm looking into buying a 8600k to replace my 6600k and Asus Z170M-Plus I've had for nearly 3 years. I'm going to pair it with a GTX 1080 I recently purchased and would like to achieve a stable fps at 144hz 1080p/later upgrade to 1440p 144hz. I've narrowed it down to these two boards...

Cheers for the suggestions and discussion guys! I learnt a bit more from this. I have a general idea of what components and build to go for now + my friend's needs. Only thing to consider now is either W7 or W10? I've never used SW but will there be any compatibility/support issues? I thought...

I am helping a family friend who needs a new PC primary for SolidWorks 2013. I have little knowledge about a workstation/CAD type PC as the only thing I can help with is the building process and I'm more acknowledged about gaming orientated/spec type builds. Short story, they were using an old...

Hey there, currently I have a 27" QX2710 (single DVI-D port/overclockable) that's been great for over 2 years now. I enjoy its amazing 2,560p x 1,440p PLS, glossy panel and have ran it in 120hz since I first got it. I'm now considering into getting a 32", 16:9 aspect, 1440p monitor that has...

Hi everyone, this is my first time with buying a custom PC build. I was wondering with my current components, what would be the suitable PSU wattage for me? eg. 650w, 700w, 750w etc. I plan to overclock my CPU and GPU in the future when gaming becomes more advance in later years, so not...
