    Question PSU for Media Server

    Go for it. Its 80+ Bronze with a 3 year warranty. You'd be pulling the same power consumption on really any PSU you go with so the bill wouldn't change. You COULD get one with better efficiency rates at lower power levels but your bill wouldn't reflect the difference. For that price and the 3...

    Question CPU voltage keeps changing

    Do your fans spike along with the CPU? If they do it may be a software problem. Check task manager (Performance > CPU) then click CPU to prioritize programs highest to lowest to see what causes the throttle.

    The fan can be plugged into the motherboard, it is completely removable from the case. Switch the exhaust fan to the top panel if it will not fit beside the IO panel.

    Question Mouse not functioning properly

    Download the specific drivers for the mouse first. Look up the device model number and download the drivers required. Restart PC after installing drivers just to be safe.

    Question Please check my Setup, before i order it

    Your RAM will be clocked down on both sticks. The motherboard only supports 2133, 2400, 2666. Save the extra $$$ and grab a set of 2666 or 2400.

    Question What's the difference between these 2 RAMs?

    Same timings, voltage and all. No difference in performance. Model number is different due to the top one being sold in kits. Manufacturers are weird. 🤷‍♂️

    Build Advice Will a single fan GPU have good temps if there are two intake fans under it?

    The overall degree change between the single fan gpu and the dual won't be significant. Technically the dual will be better but definitely not noticeable unless testing under high throttle. The main concern with the bottom intake fans would be the dust. Any dust laying on your desk would likely...

    Radio push more than amp set watts?

    Thank you for the replies and I will keep that in mind! But one last question. Let's say my amp is set at 250 watts. If I turn the bass boost or sub level up on my amp will the amp then push higher than 250 even though it's set at 250?

    Radio push more than amp set watts?

    Will my amp is 500 watts and I just want to make sure that turning up the base or the speaker power on the radio won't make it push more than 250 to my sub

    Radio push more than amp set watts?

    My question is can a radio when turning up the bass push more than the set wattage on an amp. For instance if I have the Watts set to 250 on my amp will my radio push more if I turn up the bass on my radio. My speaker has an RMS of 250 W and I don't want it to push more if I Turn up the radio.

    Decision Regarding DDR3 RAM HyperX Fury

    There are plenty of websites to order your RAM from! I personally use Newegg mostly because of the good sales and deals they have going on. Can you not order online? And just keep the old ram but be careful not to let them get static and don't touch the connectors!

    Gigabyte GTX 670 and this PSU works?

    Technically yes it should work. Although it would be cutting it really with a max of 396w on the 12V line. It is more than likely going to crash alot due to it only being able to push 396w on the 12v. I highly recommend going with a 650w PSU preferably 80+ gold. I wouldn't ever trust a PSU from...
