So many years ago I got this logitech Z506 5.1 system, its neat and all, but i always used the rear speakers in front of my on my desk. I noticed to a lot of games just don't have any sounds on the rear speakers and furthermore, the fact that it uses those P2 analog plugs on the rear of my case...

That was very interesting, it seems that at first glance the difference is mainly the refresh rate, 180 vs a 280, i must say the DF is going almost twice the price for me... geez...

Thing is, my sister's motherboard fried and she can probably only afford a replacement motherboard, but most still available AM3 boards i find around are either 95W or 125W (explicit on the title) I'm only guessing this is the max CPU TDP they can handle? since hers is a 140W CPU i'm assuming...

Mostly for replacing my old AOC AG271QG, it has white spots issues... I need it to be 27" QHD (don't like 4k) IPS with G/Free Sync, not very good at telling whats with HDR400/600/10, what do you folks think of...

CCleaner crash reporting, problem solved :) goodbye ccleaner.

So, been a while i've been experiencing this annoying issue where my system alt tabs to the desktop when playing games, but just the other day i realized it happens at the exact same time everyday, 15:44, so it's likely some sort of scheduled event but I have no idea what it is or where to...

Resounding no. Even if in some titles you "bottleneck", which is a term thats more of an urban legend than a real concern, your frames are undoubtedly high and well above 60 fps, on everything maxed out with a 4080, in fact, i wouldnt have even bothered switching the 3080 for 4080 UNLESS its 4k...

well yes, but often OC'ers adopt this or that 'safe' temp and voltage limits so that you get to run your chip for a couple of years, enough so that if any degradation happens you're already bound to upgrade anyways. I'm trying to find that just perfect spot. but if my temps and oc looks fine, im...

Vcore is 1.38v @ 5.2Ghz with LLC2 on a MSI I get a a bump to 1.384v when stress testing on aida/cpu-z/heavy games, managed 1 hour no crash, but im uncertain if its REALLY stable, so i may need to bup .05 or .1 if i really have a wiggle room for 1.4v maximum, i wouldnt go past that. on gaming...

well, to be fair the only reason im considering this is the pcie 4.0 support, if mine had i'd be golden for a fews years. with 12 gen out it maybe sound a bit ironic but im merely trying to secure pcie 4.0 and be good for a couple of years ahead. Because of the sale, i could sell my 10700k and...

I mean, we all know 11gen had a bad start, none the less, i've got a sale going in which the 11900kf is literally going for the same price as the 10700k, and I wouldnt touch the 11700k cause its slower in some situations, however, with the 11900kf going for the exact same price (minus igpu...

The real reason for the change is just that i need more space, 2TB seem fine, im already on the edge with 1TB, even disabled over-provisioning for extra, so i figured that going nvme would be the natural course, which leads to the question still, gen 3 for a quite about 30% cheaper or gen 4 anyways.

it was a XPG SX8200 i dont know where i got the kingston from. ingore that

yeah, you are correct, i wrote it out of my mind, the correct model is a XPG SX8200 2TB, I dunno where kingston came from, i was probably looking at some other model before.

Gotta swap the SSD because its still SATA3 and i need more space, was considering the Corsair MP600 XT 2TB to go along a MSI Z490 Gaming plus (pcie 4) and a 10700k (gen 3, why intel?). Wondering if there's anything to gain with a gen 4 board and SSD even though the CPU is still 3. Thing is...
