    EVGA GTX 970 Superclocked reaching 60-63 degrees on idle

    I'm a little bit concerned. I picked up the above mentioned card yesterday and installed it. First thing I noticed was that upon start up for about 5-10 minutes it would stay below 50 degrees which I guessed was normal. But after that it reached 63 degrees and the fans started spinning up to...

    Best headphones for gaming and music UNDER $100?

    I need some good headphones. I use them primarily for gaming and music listening as it is. So far I have the Audio Technica ATH M40X, Sennheiser HD 439, Samson SR850 and the Superlux HD668B on my list. Right now I'm leaning more towards the M40X since I've never really heard anything bad about...

I figured it was probably because the settings were high so I turned them down and it still stutters. I turned V-Sync off and it helped a bit, but the stuttering still happens. I'm...

    Overclocking CPU and GPU for FPS

    Overclocking CPU and GPU for FPS

    I was just wondering if overclocking my CPU(i5 3570k) to about 4-4.8ghz will help increase my fps. Also, I have a Gigabyte GTX 660 and on the box it says it's already overclocked, but I was wondering if it's possible to overclock it even more.
