I've looked at all previous threads on this topic and none have helped me. To be clear, It is not a thermal issue or a malware issue (fresh copy of WIN10) So for the past few days, a few minutes into playing a game the FPS drops randomly. From 60-70+ to 10-15 and stays that way for a few...

So in the last few days when I try to log into the university wifi, I notice it redirects a page which says "Proof of work required. Please wait". After a google search I gathered that coinhive.com is a cryptominer website which mines for Monero using browser resources. I don't think this is...

I've accumulated a lot of photos over the years on my HDD. Most of these are backups from my phone. I have literally 1000's of photos which I don't really want to delete. How can i compress these photos efficiently so they take up as less space as possible. I don't really need the photos but...

I'm currently using a desktop which is well suited to my needs but I will be leaving the country soon so I need to purchase a laptop which will fit my needs. And with the 10 series laptop GPU's being similar in performance to the desktop versions, I feel now is the time to invest in a good...

In the light of the CIA exploits (Vault 7) which potentially affect every OS in the world, What steps can one take to protect his/her personal data and privacy?

So I have a Nvidia GTX 960 4GB hooked up to a 17" monitor as my secondary display and a 24" monitor as my primary. It doesn't seem to make much of a difference in games like CSGO or Dota but when I run intensive games like GTA 5 with the graphics cranked up, I do experience a little stuttering...

I haven't noticed, But I will check and get back to you. :)

No reason to worry, I have a GTX970 and this happens all the time. As long as your temperature is under check, it's just the GPU using the fans as and when necessary.

Yes, your current PSU will supply enough wattage to the GPU to run. Be careful about overclocking thoug. If you are planning to upgrade, go for an 850-1000W. Refer this link for more detailed specs: http://www.realhardtechx.com/index_archivos/Page362.htm

Playing all games on ultra should not be your goal. Getting good fps (frames per second) on ultra for a smooth experience is what matters. You can have the best graphic card in the market but if your processor and RAM cant keep up, the game will inevitably stutter. Post more detailed specs about...

Hi guys, So I have a dual monitor setup, my primary monitor is connected to my computer via a HDMI cable and my secondary through a VGA cable. I also have a pair of speakers plugged into the generic audio slot. Audio is transmitted to my speakers just fine but the on-board speakers on my primary...

Ask him to visit the 'can you run it' website and run their application to find out if it can and why exactly if i cant. http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri :)

I run GTA 5 on the GTX 960 and I used to have the same problem. I was connected to a VGA monitor which had a maximum refresh rate of 60 GHz, The game stopped doing this when I started connecting my PC via HDMI to my TV. Try it and let me know if it helps :D

I've posted a link from Youtube on how to reapply thermal paste in my previous answer, please try that out first. If that does not rectify the issue, you can go for an external USB-style cooler...
