To avoid any confusion we might have here, what you call cabinets are actually called cases, so when I talk about a case, I mean cabinet. They all fit these parts. The H81M can fit a 1060 3gb, because all motherboards from the last 10+ years have a PCI-E slot. For an matx motherboard, which you...

The build is rather good value, but in my personal opinion, going for the Samsung 850 EVO ssd is a slight waste of money. For about the same price you can find almost twice the capacity when going with this Kingston drive for example...

It was my front fan hitting a loose cable at very high speeds. Moved the cable and the sound went away.

I have 2 old 3ds'. One in the firmware 11.6.0-39E and the other one in 6.1.0-39E (not entirely sure about this one. Will edit later if wrong.) I have no idea how to install cfw on neither one, homebrew should do the trick. Which one has a FREE way of doing this. If neither one has a reliable...

Intel stock cooler coming with the processors have preapplied thermal compound, so no need for that. Swapping processors is mostly an easy task. Supposing, that you bought the Celeron separately, it came with its own cooler. I strongly suggest you to put that cooler coming with the Celeron on...

I'd personally go for a GTX 1050 or an RX 560, if I was buying a GPU and nothing else. But in your position I would definitely consider upgrading to 8gb of ram and go for a used GTX 750ti.

Oops! Must roll that one back now. Even after the Windows reinstall everything can cause a bsod, but only once per session. I'm starting to believe that it's somehow related to AMD graphics drivers. Memtest had passes, haven't tested prime95 or the others, but after wiping my drivers with DDU...

New information! I reinstalled windows, and it partially solved the problem. Only thing left is the annoying side of it, which is that it only happens in multiplayer games like LoL and overwatch. Games like the binding of isaac and the witcher 3 don't crash anymore. Anyone come up with a way to...

Title says about all. I built my system about 1-2 months ago, a few weeks passed and I noticed a problem. I got a blue screen. "That's no big deal," I thought. "Just a randon blue screen". But then it repeated over and over again. I noticed no other consistencies than that it happens in the...

Title says it all. Pc in use for a week. Cooler installed with three screws due to complications unrelated to the issue. What should I do? I have no desire to send any component back. Just scared if this ends up blowing up my system and setting fire to the house.

To Finland, to be specific. And are their components tested to be in good working condition or is it like ebay, but more organized? ( I saw no real area to post about computer part stores, so I put this here.)
