As an owner of a r9 280x vapor-x I must say it is pretty loud under load, but can't complain about anything else. Also I don't know how useful this metal plate on the back of the card really is, but it gives a very sturdy feeling while handling the card during installation and looks much better...

Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you know that I replaced the stock Intel cooler with a Hyper 212 EVO and did some extensive testing and the temps never went over 72°C which is about 25° lower then with the stock cooler. I don't know if my stock cooler was defective, mounted incorrectly (even...

Thanks for the replies. Checking the heatsink mounting and the pushpins on the back of the mobo was the 1st thing I did and they are fine.I guess that's the normal stock heatsink performance. Did some more testing, let it run the whole night and it never got over 100°C. Also in a more realistic...

Hello everyone, I assembled my new PC a few days ago and everything is running just fine except I get very high temperatures on my 4770 with the stock cooler. When I run Prime95 with 8 threads HWMonitor says it goes as high as mid 90°C which is much higher then my old PC. I thought that maybe I...

WoW loosing players and revenue is pretty much obvious, but I'm not sure the results of this report are accurate. They are comparing total revenues, but 7 months ago (September 2012) is when the last expansion was released, which means millions of 40$ box sales, so it is kind of expected to see...

Aesthetically I like the blue heatsinks of the current generation much more then this new pale yellow ones (not that it matter particularly as you don't really look at your mobo very often), but bigger heatsinks are always a plus if they are not too big and create problems with installing some...

So for 400 euro you get an incomplete system without RAM, storage, wireless? If you factor in this additional costs you can hardly go much cheaper then 550 euro (50 euro for the RAM and 100 for a smaller SSD) and I don't see who is going to buy it at that price. There is no mention of...

I'm nearsighted so I need to wear my "normal" glasses all the time and therefore I won't be using smart glasses of any kind (and no, I don't like wearing contact lenses so that's not a solution for me). Watches became pretty much obsolete when we got mobile phones and people still wear them...

http://www.nokia.com/global/products/phone/105/specifications/ epic specifications :) the 384 kB of RAM and 8 MB of storage made me smile, and yet this is enough for the functionality that 90% of the population need in both the countries this phone is aimed to and i would dare to say even in...
