Hello, I'm looking for a recommendation for a 4k monitor from those more knowledgeable than myself. It will be a dedicated monitor to run a mapping program (see link below) 24/7. I don't feel that I need any of the features for gaming since it will be used to run this program and that's it...

Yes, everything seems to be working fine now, but I looked at BIOS updates later than mine (F2) and they have improvements. Wouldn't I want these? F4a - Enhamced XMP performance. F4 - Update for security vulnerabilities F5h - Improved XMP DDR Compatibility F5 - Improved GPU compatibility F7 -...

Hello, I finally feel confident enough to update my BIOS. My current BIOS is F2, which is what came with the mobo. The latest Gigabyte Gaming 7 BIOS is F10 which supports gen 9 cpu's. Should I always update to the current BIOS even though I'm using an gen 8 cpu? Everything is working great...

Thank you, clutchc. Here's a link to the cpu-z main board. https://www.dropbox.com/s/wjplyalu8afmdqk/mb.png?dl=0

I'm a new builder so when something happens unexpectedly I just have to ask. Last month I upgraded to the latest BIOS (F7). Today I went into my BIO and it says i'm using using the original F2 BIOS. I'm not sure what happened or how to explain it, but should I just re-install F7 or is something...

Hi guys, Every once in a while my computer screen will flash on and off with a lot of colored lines running horizontally. The computer crashes then restarts. On the blue crash screen it says "Video-TDR-Failure". I don't know what that means, but all my drivers are up to date from Geforce...

Hi guys, Every once in a while my computer screen will flash on and off with a lot of colored lines running horizontally. I guess the computer is crashing then restarts. On the crash screen it says "Video-TDR-Failure". All my drivers are up to date from Geforce Experience. I'm a new builder so...

Hello, I can't get Nvidia control panel to show up on my screen. If I go into Win 10 Control Panel and click on Nvidia Control Panel, it pops up at the bottom of my screen on my tool bar and I can hover my mouser over it and I can see the thumb nail, but when I click on it, it doesn't pop up on...

Hello, I have a Blackberry Priv using the latest Android OS. In the camera settings menu, I selected "save video to memory card". Everytime I take a video it saves it to both my internal memory and the SD card. I was hoping that if I delete the video from my internal memory, the video on my SD...

Ok, so in the WOW settings, if I play the game in Full screen mode I get 165 fps and the screen flashing stops and when I use Windowed (Full screen) mode I get 25 fps. I always preferred Windowed (Full screen) since I can tab out to other things more easily and still keep my main monitor in the...

I installed a new GPU about a month ago, and recently have been having issues in game (WOW). I don't know if it's a GPU issue or not. The screen will flash for a few seconds then stabilize. I'll go from 160 - 200fps in game to 25. I attached a video I took of what happens. System: 8700k...

Thank you, jaslion. I won't install it. I did install Bitdefender but that's it. I hope BF get's the approval of this forum. Thanks again.
