    Ethernet not working on my PC

    I fixed it It turns out that Malwarebytes was for some reason restricting my internet from working. I restarted Malwarebytes and my internet started working again.

    Ethernet not working on my PC

    So I was on YouTube earlier today when the internet on my computer stopped working. All of the lights were on in the front of the modem and the router was good too, it was really odd. I tried to put a different ethernet cable in my computer thinking the cord went bad, but that didn't help. I...

    How should my fan setup be with the Hyper 212 Evo?

    I ordered one of these since I'm going to use it to OC my G3258 to 4 GHz. After I ordered it, I realized I have a spare fan from a previous build. If I were to use another fan in my case, how would I arrange that?

    Can my system be upgraded for 250 dollars?

    I could be wrong, but wouldn't that GTX 980 bottleneck? I mean the Q6600 is a relatively old processor, and that card is pretty new. Also, my current job is seasonal, and the season just ended (I mow for a company). I'm 16, so I don't have many options.

    Can my system be upgraded for 250 dollars?

    Make it a semi-decent gaming PC. I can play Steam games at high settings. That's pretty much all I can play at the moment. The motherboard was extracted from my 2007 eMachines, since it had a LGA 775 socket for this processor. And no, I'm pretty sure they aren't around lol.

    Afraid to leave computer running all night because of PSU.

    So I bought a Thermaltake 600w (http://bit.ly/1CI49bQ), and I'm afraid of running it all night because of a few issues. First, it won't turn on unless the plug for the PSU is seated in a specific way (it can move around; if you mess with it at all, the computer shuts off.) I'm afraid of leaving...

    Is a Q6600 better than the Pentium E6700?

    I have a Pentium E6700 and I wanted a Q6600 for games that require multiple cores. But I heard they were similar, and was wondering which one will give me more performance overall.

    Is a Q6600 better than the Pentium E6700?

    I guess I could put an aftermarket cooler to overclock. Which cooler would you suggest? I've tried to put in a hyper 212 evo, but it was insanely complicated for me to put in for some reason, so I had to sell it to a friend of mine because I couldn't put it in.

    Is a Q6600 better than the Pentium E6700?

    So I'm going to buy GTA 5 soon. The minimum requirements for the processor is a Q6600, and I have a Pentium Dual-Core E6700. My motherboard clearly has the correct socket for the Q6600, so I was going to put one of those in. A question though, both are very similar (from what I heard), so how...
