Hi guys, I've recently been experiencing some problems with my 290x's in crossfire after replacing my old hdd that killed itself. They both show up in afterburner but only one is active. When I'm running bench marks one goes to 1250mhz while the other one stays at 0mhz and even when I'm on the...

Still having the problem but now instead gpu 2 is working while gpu 1 keeps going from 100% use age to 0% randomly while benching. Any other solutions? Edit: forgot to edit colum two.

Hi guys, I've recently been experiencing some problems with my 290x's in crossfire after replacing my old hdd that killed itself. They both show up in afterburner but only one is active. When I'm running bench marks one goes to 1250mhz while the other one stays at 0mhz. I can't really unplug one...

Ok cool, I'll look into those parts. Does anyone know about the best price/performance motherboard released for x99 so far? Preferably black or black and red. I'm still on the border on which one to get. Btw I have a H440 for my case and I don't think it can hold ATX-E motherboards, or at least...

Hi, thanks for the quick response. Would of you mind telling me what problems you've had with the fatality boards? The asrock professional board is part of the fatality series's as well if I'm not mistaken. Do you have any other recommendations for motherboards? Also, I'm going for a really...

I currently don't have a cpu cooler, a mother board, ram or a cpu. So far I'm getting the 5820k and 16gb of crucial ddr4 memory. I'm debating whether to get the asrock x99 professional Or The asrock fatal1ty X99X. For cpu cooler I'm not sure if I should get an AIO like the kraken x61 or the...

I'm going to be running a lot of VM 's on it and I'm doing some major video editing and I might also use it for some folding

Don't forget to pick best solution

Hello, congrats or joining the upper part of gaming society by building a PC! Your build looks ok but I do have a few suggestions. First off in my opinion it's a better idea to either go with a 280x or a 770 4gb version because some modern titles can eat through a lot of VRAM and if you have...

Your power supply will need to be upgraded most likely. What I would recommend the 5820k (around $400) 16gb of DDR4 (around $200) Evga 1000w psu ($150) with a 10 year warranty Motherboard (good ones are around $300-400) For a CPU Cooler I recommend the h100i ($100) The total amount for a...

Hey guys, I made a pretty big booboo this time. I recently purchased 2 R9 290x's with the intention of water cooling them. I used two universal blocks and everything was running smoothly up until one of my VRM heatsink fell off. Because I ran out of heat conductive tape I used thermal paste and...

I'm using x2 360mm radiators that are around 35mm thick and need some fans to cool them. I know static pressure fans would be the best for this but I don't have the money for something like corsairs SP120 fans. I was thinking about either getting 3 sets of these to do push pull configs...
