    AMD A6 5400K vs Intel Pentium G3250 for Steam in home streaming @1080p/60

    Thank you for your answer. Like I said, I already tested streaming with an i7 Sandy Bridge in hardware encoding mode which uses the iGPU and it worked prefectly. This Intel HD Graphics is weaker than the on the dual-core Haswell Pentiums.

    AMD A6 5400K vs Intel Pentium G3250 for Steam in home streaming @1080p/60

    I currently have a 5400K APU system which I use to watch movies/TV Shows with Kodi Media center without any issues. I got interested in streaming games from my main rig (gtx 780) to this PC but it seems that my current APU is just not able to decode H264 at 1080p/60 since it drops around 50% of...

    Swap Home/Pro licenses between my 2 PCs

    ok I did it!! I had to follow a guide to uninstall both licenses using the command prompt so the licenses can be used later. Then used add features of win 8.1 to upgrade my main pc to win 8.1 pro using the pro key. The htpc downgrade was more problematic at first but then found a little program...

    Yeah I just needed a couple of things for work that are only in the Pro version. Thank you for your help. I'll try and see what else I can do. If not then I'll just reinstall both

    Swap Home/Pro licenses between my 2 PCs

    Swap Home/Pro licenses between my 2 PCs

    Hi. I'm trying to switch the Pro license from my HTPC (got the license from my college) to my main PC's Home Premium license (had to buy this one). But I want to do it without uninstalling windows from both machines. What should I do??

    Control two different fans with one fan header w/ Y splitter

    So I'm upgrading the stock fans on my 350D Corsair case. I'll be using two AF140 in the front, another AF140 on top and a AF120 in the back. Unfortunately my Asus h87m-plus only has two headers so I was thinking about using two splitters and connect the front fans to one header and the back/top...

    Shipping a PC with gtx 780 and 212 Evo
