Not sure exactly what fixed it. Opened pc, looked at slots real close, no damage that I saw. Blew out all 8 slots, checked to see if any stand offs were touching, everything looked good. Put in 2 sticks instead of 4 in slots c1 and d1, booted to bios and it recognizes both sticks. Put in other...

Recently I got a new case for my pc and a few new fans. After moving everything to the new case, I noticed my PC is only recognizing 3 out my 4 sticks of ram. Last night I did some troubleshooting, moving sticks around and whatnot, Slot D1 does not recognize any of my 4 sticks. I tried moving...

tldr: PC fails to POST 90% of time, wondering if it's motherboard or graphics card dying and what tests I can do to find out (see imgur link for more info) For the past two weeks my PC has been having issues turning on. At first thought it seemed like my motherboard is going bad but now I'm...

tldr; PC keeps booting to black screen, have to do multiple power offs / troubleshooting steps to get it fully functional. Error codes in order keep coming 62 (Clear CMOS), A2 (Reinstall SATA), 99 (Reinstall PCI) Two nights ago my computer was working juts fine, I didn't install or change any...

Tldr; getting new headphones, should I replace with high end stereo headphones if I use spatial sound and mainly play games supporting stereo audio only (PUBG) or will I still benefit from having 7.1 capabilities? I'm looking to replace my gaming headphones, I currently have the Logitech G933s...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a little bit more input before I decide to pull the plug on a new monitor. I recently upgraded to an EVGA GTX 1080 and I'm LOVING it. The performance I am getting is insane, now I just want to see more of it. I currently run a dual 60hz 1080p monitor setup and am...

I bought my pc a while ago when I didn't know too much about what I was doing and didn't take the time to do any research. I used iBuyPower and picked some good parts, its been a couple years and I'm looking to upgrade. I know I'll be getting a 1070, however along with that I would like to...

I have a corsair CX600 V2 80 Plus Bronze, would that work?

I built this with little knowledge of what I was doing, only found out recently that my processor was pretty good, don't quite understand what the x99 board does for me or what makes it different. Money isn't an issue, but if I don't NEED to go 1080, I probably won't. But I do like the idea of a...

Upgrading my graphics card, have an i7 5820k oc to 4 ghz, if I want to yet a 4k monitor for gaming, will a 1070 suffice? Or should I go 1080 Don't play anything too graphically intense, mainly league of legends/rust/h1z1. Occasionally battlefield 1

Side note, how do you quote on mobile xD

"What resolution is your monitor? Your cpu is great no worries there. At 1080p a 1080 would be way overkill" I'm currently running two 1080p monitors, thinking of upgrading one to 4k
