    I am having the same exact issue right now, my mom is using old HP 530 and I wanted to give it SSD to keep up before Zen2 drops prices of everything so she could upgrade properly. My first error was installing x64 system on that SSD via my other PC, corrected it, installed x86 one and it still...

    Could not find more relevant sub-forum to ask this. For a while I wanna start streaming but my income is low to build a beast.

    Graphic Driver has recovered problem

    Graphic Driver has recovered problem

    Update: I just downloaded FurMark, as soon as I start the StressTest system crashes. Last temperature reading I get before it happens is 72'C, I even keep HwInfo on and all thermal diodes have close temperatures, none jumps out like crazy. It crashes even on lowest stress test But I can watch...

    Graphic Driver has recovered problem

    I am aware of that but I kind of skipped it because this problem is pretty much related to GPU and to my knowledge can be caused by RAM in like 0.00001% cases System specs ASUS M5A99X EVO AMD FX-4170 Sapphire HD6950 (with BIOS switch and 6970 BIOS) 2x4GB Kingston HyperX DDR3 RAM 3 Hard drives...

    Graphic Driver has recovered problem

    Hello, I read few topics on this and most of them are suggesting that it is a hardware issue. I had some problems recently in a game, screen tearing for a moment (way less than a second) but nothing big, it was rare, i thought it was a recent update to World of Tanks. GPU fan did get "loud"...

    Question about MOLEX to 6-pin on modular PSU

    On some chart where someone listed PSU manufacturer by some ratings Zalman was in between of good and excellent, it is not top class but is capable of delivering the juice and yeah, I was also surprised with 4x12v@20amps rails but math is true, it should have enough, with bronze 80% and rated...
