    Recommended CPU for current build?

    Hi everyone, I'm building a PC soon in Canada, and I am more focused on gaming and multi-tasking performance (so I think an i7 would be good). However, I'm sort of lost as to which i7 to choose. Here is the current list of parts I have: PCPartPicker part list...

    Building my first gaming PC from scratch!

    Hi Charlie78, I was rather thinking that if this is a PC that truly looks for max performance in gaming, I would go a little cheaper on some parts and rather get a better GPU. By no means am I saying the 1060 is bad, but the 1070 is quite a bit better. If you would like my opinion on what you...

    Looking to build an emulation system, need your thoughts!

    I just want to straight up say that you DONT want a gtx 750Ti for an emulation machine. The 750Ti will be extremely underpowered unless you play the simplest of N64 emulations or older. I would recommend instead of getting an SSD for $44 to instead by a small HDD with similar capacity for a...

    MX Cherry Blue or brown switches on keyboard?

    Hi everyone! I'm thinking of getting a new keyboard after having a membrane one for a very long time. I'm aware that the blue switches make more noise than the browns, but are generally better for gaming. I know this info about the blues and browns through multiple internet videos, but is it...

    Help CS:GO is killing my computer

    I think the problem might be a defective cable, have you tried replugging all the cables and making sure they are well plugged in? Or otherwise replacing them? One more idea might be that your power supply might be defective and you might have to buy a new one if it turns off like that.

    dell xps 13, 2015 edition

    I forgot to add one flaw, is that on the 1920x1080 version there is a lot of weird scaling problems on sort of foreign programs like ccleaner, and hwmonitor, etc. and makes the words in the program either blurry, too big, or too small which is kinda annoying. But that should all be fixed with...

    dell xps 13, 2015 edition

    Lucky you, im acutally using it as i'm typing this. I never say any bad reviews for the trackpad, personally i think the trackpad works flawlessly. Its really really smooth and detects perfectly when i click, right click or when my palm is on the trackpad. The i5-5200U works better than the...
