so i have an I5 4690 NONE K in my sons comp, and like i said it was using 1866. It's none K so can't over clock it, his motherboard supports all those freq like i said so i just assumed the 1866 would work and it did. I have the Z97 chip set, I got him the MSI Z97i mini ITX. So do the None K...

So my CPU says it supports. Memory Types DDR3 and DDR3L 1333/1600 at 1.5V So if i installed 1866 does that overclock the cpu? I had that ram installed in my sons PC with the CPU and its worked flalessly, but i didn't OC it... So I'm still confused. Do most all new CPU's JUST support 1600...

1: does your XMP motherboard ram figure all the timings out? 2: if my mother board supports ram DDR3 1066/1333/1600/1866*/2000*/2133*/2200*/2400*/2600*/2666*/2800*/3000*/3100*/3200*/3300*(*OC) MHz can you simply use any speed with in that range or do you have to do any tweaking on higher speed...

SO My sons computer crapped out and i can use his (Evga GTX 760SC) but my PSU is only 550 watts (corsair TX550m). I looked out how much my system will be using and i got 650 24 hours a day and 8 hours a day 544 watts. http://powersupplycalculator.net/ Guru says they will only use 168 each...

Thank you good sir... :D

The specs on the Corsair RM550 say 2 X 6+2 connectors but show only one cable and one PCI-E power slot and the 4+4 CPU power. The cable looks like it has two 6+2 connections on the "single" PCI-E power connector. Can i use the ONE PCI-E power cable with 2 X 6+2 connectors on the GTX760 4 and 6...

Yes and i also read the next comment... "Yeah I was considering the HDD mostly because the native speed was faster, being a 7200rpm drive. I'll probably mostly use this drive for playing games that aren't on my SSD and for storage. Since most games are bigger than 8GB, I don't really see how an...

Well it's not just "storage", I'll be playing games off of it. Would it still matter? Could the SSHD improve performance in loading the games/maps/levels from a SSHD VS a HDD? Ty for your quick response...

I have an SSD as C windows and blizzard games, i want to upgrade my secondary drive for more space. Would it matter if i get a SSHD VS a HDD as the second drive? Partition it D and E and put steam on D and Origin on E. I read about the cache being persistent or it can clear after boot. How does...
