    Enabling the Command Prompt

    Is this your personal computer or at work or something? You need to have administrator rights to access the command prompt. Go into your computers user account settings and see what it has your account listed as.

    Windows 8 BIOS

    The ability to set aside system RAM to integrated CPU graphics is completely dependent on your motherboard, not windows. Some motherboards with less features will not have this option. I am guessing that your Dell falls into this category, you probably won't be able to do it.

    OC i7-4470k with Asus ROG utility boot problems

    Tired all of that. My guess is there's something on the HDD that is confusing the boot process. I dont know what it would be though there are not any ISO files or anything in the root directory.

    CPU doesn't adjust [4-way optimization, 4770K, Z87-Pro (V-Edition)]

    I think I figured it out. There are slightly different versions of AI suite for the ROG motherboards as the rest of the series (i.e. your Z-87pro). The ROG boards have different options under the advanced tab of the 4-way optimization tool. Its weird because all of the tutorials and...

    CPU doesn't adjust [4-way optimization, 4770K, Z87-Pro (V-Edition)]

    Although I don't have a direct answer for, I am also struggling with an issue with the 4-way optimization tool. There doesn't seem to be any recent info posted about it. I built this PC yesterday, i7-4770 Asus Maximus VI impact Crucial Ballistix Tactical (1x8gb) When I open up the 4-way opt...

    New build, do I need a video card?

    Thats an incredibly powerful system in every category except graphics. While the i7 has decent onboard graphics for light applications, it is definitely holding you back. In my opinion there isn't much of a point to have put that much money into a system and then still rely on cpu imbedded...

    Sound/Dust Proof BitPhenix Prodigy Mod Ideas?

    First of all can anyone speak to the quality of the mesh front panel included on the black prodigy? I have worked with the white model before but that have a different style intake. Assuming that the front panel filter isn't completely effective in blocking dust (which I expect), what have...

    Mini-ITX Gaming case?!? Small, quiet, simple, dust free.

    They are removable so its possible they list the cooler as compatible but thats only if you take the cards off. Thats not an option.

    Mini-ITX Gaming case?!? Small, quiet, simple, dust free.

    Yeah definitely, this is the ram I'm considering and it should work fine. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148655 The one thing I'm trying to make sure is if there will be interference with the sound card/wireless card. They are both vertically mounted above the PCI-E slot.

    Mini-ITX Gaming case?!? Small, quiet, simple, dust free.

    Well the noctura is listed as compatible with my motherboard, so I think ill go with that. Its going to look ridiculous on such a tiny motherboard though haha.

    Mini-ITX Gaming case?!? Small, quiet, simple, dust free.

    Good to know. I like both those air coolers, I was looking at those earlier. Maybe that is the way to go after all.

    Mini-ITX Gaming case?!? Small, quiet, simple, dust free.

    Really, I was assuming that i could put on some noc fans and run them low rpm and do pretty well. You might be right though I've never used these all-in-one systems. Right now I've got a custom loop on my 920 with a 3x120mm radiator. I just don't want the complexity of this anymore. Any...
