    DVI/VGA Stops working, HDMI still works?

    DVI/VGA Stops working, HDMI still works?

    A while back, there was a point in time where my monitor stopped receiving a signal. "Great," I thought, "my monitor is busted." So I find a spare monitor I had lying around which used the same connector as the previous monitor. That didn't work either. I could still hear the various sounds...

    Poor i5 2500k @ 4.3GHz performance?

    Bit of an update: After digging around a bit, I managed to find the box for my current PSU, which is an "Ultra Professional LSP 750W". After doing a bit of research on the company, I saw that they weren't exactly a reputable company, be it their business practices or the quality of the PSUs...

    I will try your suggestion, Americanbrian. Thanks to everyone for the help, I'll check out some places for a new PSU.

    Poor i5 2500k @ 4.3GHz performance?

    I also forgot to mention, I was referring to Battlefield 4's multiplayer; single player works without a hitch. I run most of the games at max, because as far as graphics goes, they've never really had a problem. It isn't until AI, other players or similar things that are calculated by the CPU...

    Poor i5 2500k @ 4.3GHz performance?

    To clarify, since a certain someone decided to be a tad overly-hostile: Yes, I did perform a hard clear of the CMOS. Yes, I am running the latest version of my motherboard's BIOS. They haven't updated it since 2011, which is why I'm looking to get a new motherboard. I have 12 GB of RAM because I...

    Poor i5 2500k @ 4.3GHz performance?

    Hello, fair denizens of THW. I have run into a slight dilemma. A while back, I made the upgrade to a 2500k from an i5 2300, due to a mix of inability to overclock, and overall horrid bottlenecking. My GTX 670 SLI setup was getting a mere 40% usage on both cards. Enter: the 2500k. It arrived, I...

    I'm at my wits' end here.

    Hello, lovely citizens of Tom's Hardware. I appear to have run into a slight (and by 'slight', I mean monumental) problem with my desktop PC. Today has been a very tiresome day, to say the least, and this little issue is the proverbial cherry on top of this <insert foul word here>-sundae...

    GPU has extremely high idle temp

    Today, I started up my computer, did a little bit of web browsing, then immediately went outside to do some landscaping. It took me maybe 30 minutes at most, and when I came back, I decided to turn on MSI Afterburner, as I typically do. It was then when I noticed that my first GPU (SLI GTX...
