    Under-performing Gaming pc

    When I play Assassins Creed Origins on "high" settings I'm only averaging around 55 fps with v-sync turned off. It just seems a bit low to me for this build. What do you guys think? Is this on par with should be expected or is it under-performing? Thanks! Current build: CPU (overclocked to...

    Audio Issues (Stuttering)

    I'm not sure if this is even a windows 10 issue but I have tried a bunch of different things and nothing seems to work. My audio has been messing up for a while and they best way I can describe it is a stutter. This happens across all audio sources (YouTube/Chrome, iTunes, Spotify) and outputs...

    Overclock not applying (feel like I've tried everything)

    I probably won’t get to those stress test tonight and don’t want to leave it running overnight without double checking the max temps an hour from now. But I’ll let you know how it goes tomorrow. Thanks again you’ve been a huge help. I really appreciate it!

    Will do! And nope still has the original two in the front and then the cooler on the back. Plus I removed the bigger hard drive cage and only have the small one on the base.

    Ahh yeah I know. When I built this PC I bought it with room to grow at the time but even at the time I knew that cooler wasn't the greatest. I just happened to get a really good deal on it and didn't want to spend $100+ for a H100i. Ill push this CPU as far as I can with this cooler then upgrade...

    Overclock not applying (feel like I've tried everything)

    Sorry about that. And nope it worked like a charm. I’m running a realbench benchmark right now and it’s night and day so far. If I could pick your brain a bit more though. Running realbench aida64 prime95 and 3Dmark benchmarks what do you think a safe max temperature reading is for a i5-7600k...

    Overclock not applying (feel like I've tried everything)

    I recently upgraded my CPU to a i5-7600K and I'm trying to overclock it. When I change the settings in my bios the clock speed, in my bios, changes after save and restart. However when I run a stress test and HWMonitor my clock speed still maxes out at 3400MHz. Right now my bios is set to 51x...

    New install issues

    Yeah I think I got rid of all of Gigabytes bloatware. Uninstalled Gigabytes app center and all the utilities associated with it earlier today. Thanks though!
