    [SOLVED] Small mouse freezes / jumps when opening certain applications

    Hi guys, I have something really weird going on with my PC. I just bought a brand new PC last week, but I have the same issue I got on my last build. My mouse freezes / jumps when opening or closing certain applications. It's almost always the same applications that cause this issue. It's not...

    Question PC instability and issues

    I've tried several older drivers now. I also tried the following today: - Install W10 Pro on a different SSD and after completing the basic install, I only installed CS:GO. The result was the my FPS was even worse. Probably because of my config file and several tweaks I've done in the past. -...

    Question PC instability and issues

    I haven't tried older Nvidia drivers yet. I can give that a shot for sure! good idea. Any recommendations on what version is really solid? I do update my Nvidia driver asap when they release new drivers, so since the issue started, I did try 3 or 4 different drivers already, but obviously all...

    Question PC instability and issues

    I'm pretty happy with my temps as well! I try to maintain my PC in optimal shape by cleaning it regularly and always only install the stuff I really need. I've received a old, but brand new PSU from a friend to give that a try. I'll have a look into it this weekend probably. Somehow those weird...

    Question PC instability and issues

    I'll update my CPU cooler as well in the PC specs. It's a Dark Rock Pro 3. It's a huge pain in the ass to remove the cooler, so I didn't check the termal paste sadly. I was thinking about it, but than I remembered it took me 2 hours to get it in my case. So I started to check temps, but to me...

    Question PC instability and issues

    Hi guys, I've bought a PC a few years ago. This was primarily for CS:GO use. Spend about 2000 euro on it back then. I'm a pretty competitive player that wants the best possible gear/settings and performance while playing. For many years this wasn't a problem. I played CS:GO at 300fps+ and never...

    Question How does Adapative Mode + Offset work?

    Today I read several articles regarding overclocking and think I'm ready to give it a spin. I OC'd the CPU (i7 6700k) to 4.5Ghz @ 1.250v (seems to be running fine for now). But I see that the 1.250 volts are constantly pushing even when idle, so I thought about trying something else. I want the...

    [SOLVED] First OC - i7 6700k - Safe overclock

    [SOLVED] First OC - i7 6700k - Safe overclock

    Does this also count for a small OC to 4,4Ghz? You got me tho. I do want a quick fix haha. Just to see what performance gain there will be compared to non OC.

    [SOLVED] First OC - i7 6700k - Safe overclock

    I have one of the best air coolers (at that time). The Dark Rock 3 Pro. Going up higher than 4,4 / 4,5 should be possible with that cooler, I've been told. Also, the warranty has probably expired by now. But isn't it most safe to take it verry slow as a newbie OCer as me? I'm curious if I can...

    [SOLVED] First OC - i7 6700k - Safe overclock

    Hi guys, A few years ago I bought a new rig with a i7 6700k and a MSI Z170A Pro gaming carbon motherboard. I've never had the need to OC the CPU, but now I'm kinda interested in the fps gain I can get in some games that are pretty CPU based. Could you guys provide me with some vital info for...

    Newly built in (but used before) SSD gives me issues

    Guys, I always had the following setup: - 1x 500GB SSD - 1x 1000GB HDD Now I got a free 250GB SSD from a friend. My HDD always made an annoying buzzing sound and high pitch tone. This made me want to get rid of it. Sadly I can't just take it out cause some bootable files are on there I think...
