    Computer freezes and makes buzzing noise when playing games for too long

    So, recently I've had this issue where when playing relatively taxing games like The Witcher 3 or Dragon Age Inquisition for two or three hours, a sudden and completely random buzzing sound will start with the screen freezing. The computer is completely unresponsive too. I can't alt+tab or get...

    Titanfall making my computer loud

    No, I have an after market cooler and like I said, its usually quiet for games that are far more demanding. Titanfall is this weird exception.

    Titanfall making my computer loud

    So, I have a pretty decent computer. Its able to handle just about anything I throw at it. Yet, strangely, when I play Titanfall it gets loud. This makes zero sense to me since Titanfall is not a very demanding game. I can play Evolve and Alien Isolation without any noticeable fan noise. But...

    Do I have a bottleneck?

    That is good to hear. Here I was thinking I got the wrong CPU. Because all the latest games seem to list that as the recommended CPU. I was thinking I had gotta just below the recommended settings for most games coming out this year.

    Do I have a bottleneck?

    Well, if I'm slightly below than I'm not doing so bad. If I have to turn a few things down, oh well.

    Do I have a bottleneck?

    That's a relief. I know its not the best system out there, but its the first one I built myself. Thanks for putting my mind at ease on this.

    Do I have a bottleneck?

    I recently built a new computer. Second one I've made and I'm still new at this. I'm wondering if I might have created a bottleneck. The last PC I made had a pretty bad one. I asked a friend of mine to help and it seems to run everything fine. Still, I want to make sure I'll be able to continue...

    Dragon Age Inquisition poor performance

    My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-F2A85X-UP4. Also, I have a 750 watt power supply, so I don't think power is an issue. Truth be told I'm not sure how to overclock my processor. Is that really good for it or will it not hurt anything...Also can you tell I'm relatively new to PC gaming?

    Dragon Age Inquisition poor performance

    Its a 7990, didn't realize there was a potential bottleneck. This is my first PC I've ever built so I didn't completely know what I was doing. Any suggestions for a better CPU? Because I feared the CPU was the problem all along. Hell I recently upgraded my RAM because I thought that was the...

    Dragon Age Inquisition poor performance

    I've been playing Dragon age Inquisition for the past week and I've been plagued by all kinds of performance problems. The game is really choppy when loading in and would even cause sound loops when I have it set to Direct3D 11. After initial loading the game runs smooth but any transition to a...
