Love this community! I've recently got an Asus GTX 970 and it needs an auxiliary 8-pin straight from the PSU, but my PSU doesn't have an 8-pin, it only has a 6-pin. So I went down to the local store and got an adaptor from Molex to 8-pin, but it's a weird one, for me at least. It has 2 ends...

I need help, please! I've tried everything that I could think of, scoured forums far and wide, but with no solution. I'm trying to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) package 12.0.30501 on Windows 8.1. Setup keeps failing with "Error 0x80096010 - The digital signature of the...

I'm thinking of getting a GTX 960 and not sure how many fans should I get for it. I've seen versions with 1, 2 and 3 fans, but I'm not sure the extra fans are really necessary for optimal temperature. Suggestions?

I've heard people say that AMD CPUs work better with Radeon GPUs, so I thought that the R7 would run better. Also it seems that on paper the R7 is quite faster than the GTX (by gigabyte). Any thoughts on that?

Good reviews are scarce over the internet. But what do you guys think about the Mugen Max and the Ninja 4? I've been thinking of getting one of the two with two fans on opposite sides. I'll just sacrifice my stock cooler in a fiery incantation based heathen way like it deserves. So far the...

Dear community, I've recently installed an AMD FX 6350 processor and I noticed that the clock speed randomly jumps to 4.2GHz while it should be 3.9GHz. I don't want it to overclock or anything when I don't need it to. Is it normal? If not, how can I keep it at 3.9GHz? Thermal issues might...

Dear community, I currently have an AMD Phenom X3 8750 on a Gigabyte M61PME-S2P Motherboard and I am going to upgrade to an AMD FX 6350 and an Asrock 970 Pro3 R2.0 Motherboard. My main concern is formatting. I have certain files which I can't move or lose. Can I get around all that formatting...
