Hello. I've been facing this issue for about a month now, where my PC would randomly restart without any BSOD or even any overheating. At first, the PC would only restart while playing games. Sometimes, it'd go on for hours without any issue, but sometimes it'd restart within 20 minutes. But...

So recently I bought a Hyper 212x as a replacement for my CPU's (i7-3770 non-k) stock heatsink and this was the first time I've ever installed a CPU cooler. The installation itself was a bit sloppy. I tried my best to stop the cooler from moving during installation (thermal paste made the...

You're going to need a higher amount of RAM for editing. Working with 8GB can slow down your PC during heavy editing. 8GB is fine for gaming, but 16GB is currently optimal for editing. Also, if you're going to get into heavy rendering, you should invest in an i7 CPU. i7-4790 would be good

Yes it should, but if not, you could turn down some rather unnecessary settings like Post Processing, effects, terrain decoration.

So this is pretty much a "better safe than sorry" question. I have a spare Cooler Master SickleFlow X 120mm fan and since it's summer time (GPU temps have gone up by about 5C), I was planning to install the fan (as intake) in the bottom slot of my Corsair SPEC-02 case to help cool down my GPU...

The issue is Cryorig has not started its business in my country, which rules that one out.

Hello. I recently upgraded some components of my PC (case, psu and motherboard to be precise) and I'm now considering purchasing a Hyper 212 EVO CPU cooler. I currently have a stock heatsink on my i7-3770 and the CPU reaches 70-75C under heavy load (35-40C on idle) and the fan becomes extremely...

Currently it's at around 50C. I have a stock cpu cooler. EDIT- It seems there's a bug in the task manager's monitor. CPU-Z is showing the right values (3.9GHz max)

Today I replaced my dead motherboard with a Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H and ever since then, my CPU has been running at more than 4Ghz. How is this possible? My CPU is an i7-3770, the one which you cannot overclock. This is a screenshot of my performance tab in the task manager...
