Thanks for the helpful comments! Turns out I was just being dumb and it was as simple as enabling Vsync in the game settings...

I’ve started playing a lot of Shell Shock which is a very low-intensity graphics game. I can run it on a very bad work laptop at 15 frames. My desktop however is a full gaming pc with an RTX 2080 TI. The settings of the game do not allow you to change your FPS and my computer decides it’s normal...

For those who play on resolutions greater than 1080p, how does 2k or 4k look and perform for gaming? Are curved screens better for gaming? Does g sync or free sync make a big difference? What size do you guys like? I only have a 24 inch and wanna know if bigger is better. What is ultra wide...

Any cool cases out there that aren't crazy expensive? Like not the traditional box. I've only seen the Cougar Conqueror. https://www.amazon.com/Cougar-CONQUER-ATX-Gaming-Case/dp/B0759PNHX8 Just kinda looking for the future and for fun. Anyone have their own cool ones they'd like to share?

Okay thanks. I did not realize that at all. It's not a big deal, I was just excited to help her out, but she doesn't really care. She only uses it for normal simple tasks like email, word, etc. I figured an i5 4690k would be a good boost but I'd probably be better selling all my old stuff and...

I recently got a big upgrade to my computer, basically a new custom build with the same memory. I have all these new parts and I thought it would be cool to make my mom's computer better. My parts are intel and hers are amd though, so I'd need to do a complete rebuild basically. I'm just...

I read something else that said 4.9GHz turbo boost is just for a single core. From everything else I've read the increased speeds seem normal

Alright then I'll just leave it as is since electrical consumption and temps are not a problem

I read the article. I somewhat understand. Assuming I don’t have a power supply problem and my cpu temps are fine, is there a downside to allowing MCE? I just wonder if that can degrade the longevity of a cpu much like how overclocking can damage it.

Does that mean it will never turbo boost?

I have an i7 9700k that seems to be using hitting speeds way too high while doing nothing. At this very moment, it's at about 10% CPU usage but according to CPUID HWMonitor, the clock speed is at 4600MHz across all cores. I had posted before that this was occurring but I hadn't set up Windows 10...

Okay I'll go through it real slow

Well, this was a silly post, sorry for bothering you. I just rebuilt my computer and I was running tons of new software and programs yesterday evening. This morning a label popped up in the bottom right that said I need to activate windows. I do that and get about 300MB/s. It's not as fast as my...

Why is my wifi speed on my computer so much slower than what my router is putting out? I'm getting about 26|18 from my computer, however, I have 400 MB/s wifi and a speed test on my phone gets me the full 400 in the same room as my pc. The connection is full bars too. My computer is about 10...

Recently I rebuilt my computer which included getting a new motherboard. I used the windows installation media from a backup hard drive and installed Windows 10 on a brand new hard drive. I read a guide that was brought up multiple times from previous threads which I followed. It emphasized...
