At this point I would just wipe and reinstall Windows, but that might not be particularly convenient for you. I can guarantee that doing so will most certainly remove your extension problem.

It's not just water that will damage computer components, but the combination of electricity & water. Just as long as your dried it off and left it ample time to dry you should be fine.

I'm running with an overclocked Gigabyte G1. Its been reported that the Windforce cooler on the Gigabyte cards is one of the best (just make sure your case can accommodate its length. Really you can't go wrong with any of those brands (I'd pick based on warranty length, but I think they are all...

I'm running a 3570k right now, and while its great... you really should just jump to the Haswell series... You'd only be going up a single generation if doing an Ivy 3570k/3770k which just isn't worth it... it would still be outdated. HOWEVER; that's if you absolutely want to upgrade right now...

I had an issue like this a few years back; luckily I found the solution. Open your system and make sure that every connector is tightly plugged in; especially your 8 pin to the motherboard.

Well Hardline could be the result of running an un-optimized beta... Perhaps reinstall your drivers, otherwise your card might be dusty? 100 celcius seems hot; even for AMD.

Blower fans tend to work best for SLI.

Go directly to Dell's website on your desktop and search for the specific model number of the laptop. They should have your laptop model stored with all the drivers you need. Driver installation order matters; Chipset, Audio, Video, Other. Is the preferred order...

That's really strange... I recommend running the free version of Malware Bytes as it does the best job at identifying viruses and such (in my opinion). If your using multiple anti-virus tools then stop; having more than one anti-virus installed can cause them to become ineffective and fight...

Don't get an i7 for gaming, really no point. If you invest in anything then put the money in an SSD. SSDs are the number one improvement someone can make to their PC right now. At the very least buy a small SSD for boot Windows off of; I guarantee you will see the difference. If your...

Don't try and sell computers... Its not worth it; your better of recycling the parts or letting someone else use it. If you do try and sell it the best way is to sell the parts individually and its going to be pretty much half off what they are going for now.

Having an 8 core CPU wont make any difference for gaming... You should actually invest in an Intel build. Even an older Intel chipset like z77 will out preform any AMD processors based on the AM3+ socket.

Cheapest I could find: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157528&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID= It will work for overclocking your K model processor.
