Max download speed may vary between different steam games. I got 250/100 connection and some of steam games use up all download and some just small part of it. Generally bigger "hit" games can download faster. Probably some internal steam allocation of bandwidth. Also what is your upload speed...

Generally it is not ok. I'm not electrician, but that rating is there for reason. If you use lower rated cable it doesn't mean that it will supply less power, but that your device will try pull for example 10A through cable rated for 6A, which can cause overheating and possible melting or fire...

Double check also power cables to your card. Ofc it can be PSU but I had issue like this and I found i just had one loose cable. So until GPU was idle or on low it was drawing enough power through one cable and moment I started something more intensive it needed more power and shutdown because...

Hi If you wont touch inside of your PC (motherboard or other components) it should be fine. Normal PC cases are grounded (or should be) and if you touch PC case from outside it should protect your hardware inside from these random static shocks. Peripherals like keyboard and mouse are generally...

Yes if you want to maintain 2 separate networks you can just plug modem to WAN port of one router and connect those 2 routers LAN-WAN. It should recognize and route internet traffic normally and it should keep your networks as they are now (pc in one network wont see pc in other).

Why can't you connect monitor to that 660? What kind of work have you in mind? If its stuff like games I'm afraid it won't work as you wish. Each monitor connected to PC registers as display in your setting and this display is associated to GPU it is connected to. So all stuff you will see on...

EDIT: My answer is not relevant as I misread original question. Now i understand that OP wants to use laptop as kind of antenna. --------------------------------------- Do you have need for 2 separate networks? If no just connect your wifi router (one your laptop is connected to) to LAN port...

Hi XMP - extreme memory profile should be Intel only thing so your AMD CPU wont work with it (if i'm mistaken anyone please correct me as I own only intel PC's). I think unless AMD got it's own version of it you would need to set speeds manually in bios. If you use same settings as are on that...

3.85 GHz means you overclocked it as stock speed should be 3.5 and turbo speed 3.7 Did you check temperature? Cause of your problems may be thermal throttling during heavy load (which video encoding is). What cooler are you using? EDIT: 86 °C is it during that video encoding? If you have 86 °C...

It may happen. If you checked previous suggestions - checking your own ears (switching earbuds left<>right) - checking if your media player/sound card have sound balanced (same level for left and right ear) - checking if its not clogged It may very well be just plain simple failure of hardware...

It's common with 4 RAM slots laptops. My laptop is same I got 2 modules with 16GB preinstalled under keyboard and other 2 which were free from other side. Resulting in having total 48 of max 64GB RAM on that model, as I didnt wanted to bother with removing keyboard to replace other 2 RAMs 2x...

Before you installed those 2x 8GB modules, you had any module in that slot? Aren't there in fact 4 RAM slots with 2x 8GB already installed? Those other 2 slots wont be at back near 2 modules you used, but under keyboard and you would need to remove keyboard to access those. Documentation...

If you use "splitter" it will cause to display same image on both monitors, which I think you don't want. What you need in this case are 2 different adapters 1st DVI-I to VGA, this one will work with top port only. 2nd is active DVI-D to VGA adapter, these are more expensive but will work with...

It will be fine because you are actually not mixing different speeds. 800MHz reported by CPU-Z is actually 1600MHz as you buy from shop. So just add those 2 new 1600MHz to old ones and it should work. What CPU-Z reports is actual memory clock frequency (speed) which is 800MHz but is marketed...

No. Samsung 950 Pro is M.2 device so your motherboard also need M.2 slot. Which your does not have. Also 950 is PCI-E SSD so that motherboard with M.2 slot should also support PCI-E over that M.2 slot.
