    Verizon hotspot antenna question

    I believe we have Verizon around our area but I called them and they said it was spotty. So hopefully our signal strength will be sufficient once I get all the parts together. Will just the external antenna be okay? $500 just seems too hefty at the moment. It'll be my external antenna ->...

    Difference between different motherboards

    Now that you guys mentioned it. Should I look into overclocking my setup for higher performance? I'm a gamer and I want the best performance. Will it be worth it?

    Old i7 950 worth it to replace broken motherboard

    My gaming tower wasn't turning on one day so I brought it to the local Geek Squad and they helped me figure out that my motherboard(GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R) was not working. I guess it somehow broke, but I was wondering if it's still worth the money to invest on another motherboard so I could...
