It's not lack of power, it's the stability of the power they output when under load. Maybe the units you're getting are fakes?

About 15 hours worth.

Because the file allocation bitmap is half the size (32KB clusters vs 16KB clusters = less clusters to track in the bitmap = bitmap is half the size). Therefore there is 'more' space available to actually 'store' files. That said, each file will be rounded up to the nearest 32KB block, so the...

Yeah, loading the map screen in games causes massive changes in power demands. Maybe your PSU is starting to die? It's weird, 'cuz you said you already replaced it.

See if the AMD/ATI website has a specific Win8.1 driver for the HD7600M.

It's because Dell is OK it is that Governments and Hospitals and Unis and Company's use them. /facepalm. I'm a graphic designer --- That kinda implies he won't be using lit like a Government, Hospital, typical low end University or mid-range company PC. So it's a no brainer...

The title of your thread was: is this a good gaming pc build? Pairing a Core i7 with a GTX650 does not a good gaming PC make. I don't care who 'designed' it, I'm just providing feedback. The Core i7 is not much faster, and in some cases slower, in games than a Core i5. Thus you're clearly...

Yeah, well 8192 and 65536, but it doesn't make much difference. Do you still have the same problem?

Beta drivers aren't supported by AMD/ATI, so the community has a low chance of resolving strange issues that only occur with a special driver version (that is still in beta).

If the ambient temperature in the room, and around the component (such as inside the case) is lower then the overclock potential is substantially increased. If you're moving 90CFM of air you may not notice this so much, but it does in fact make a difference. Is the Corsair 350d TAC 2.0+ compliant?

Flick the switch on your PSU about 30 times in fairly quick succession while the PC is powered off, but still plugged into the mains. On some PSU's this performs a special function that 'might' resolve the issue. No seriously, I'm not joking.

Yeah, you need to plug the monitor into the new video card.

Do not perform the above. Set-up the boot menu as is supported by Microsoft.

Because the motherboard needs to support voltage changes to VDIMM? This is hardly uncommon. If you have been running with bad memory for an extended period of time then you can't just swap in good memory and have the problems go away, there will be executable files and libraries on the hard...

You'd think being able to shrink transistors down to under 1 / 67th their relative size (from earlier tech) we would go back to circuit switched networks instead of relying on packet switched ones. I've seen null-modem cables outperform some modern networks... it's a shambles I say.
