lolol...... I figured. it was a bath salts creation, but i suppose benzos and booze could also be the culprit?.

Okay, that sound a bit promising. Here's the thing, I am a craftsman/builder and specialize in mostly one-offs and have been getting into alot of "modern" style renovations. Long ago, in a galaxy far away I was dead set on being an engineer and have some college under my belt and worked with CAD...

Hello, So last July I picked up an Asrock Vega 64 for my home office/editing/gaming PC. I'm happy with it, it replaced a mid-range Nvidia 10 series and was driven to Vega 64 for the FreeSync support and a few articles noting the good workstation performance of the Vega in some rendering apps...

I have a question posed in another thread about whether to go X299 or something else and this tread makes me question it more. I currently have an X99 system on Haswell-e and it was a veritable nightmare to get a stable happy system. 3 board manufacturer's and 16 sticks of RAM later I did...

Hello, So I have been following alot of the recent drama with Meltdown and Spectre. Mostly aside from the security issues I have been reading about performance loss issues with Intel chips and how it affects the generations differently as well as the fact it is heavily workload dependent. I...

Good luck with whatever ypu decide, you will always get 100 different awnsers on what cpu to use, but as your seeing here, and is repeated in many other threads, lots of RAM is one of the single biggest contributors to a smooth experience editing, as well as fast storage. Ssd bare minimum, and...

I currently use an X99 build for editing in premiere and lightworks. Mostly high bitrate RAW footage, 225mb for every second of footage in 1080p for example from my SSD deck and Ninja 2 recorder. I'm running an I7 5930K, 32GB DDR4, GTX 1080 on an MSI X99 Gaming Pro Carbon with Samsung 850...

My 2c, check the sheathing for a voltage rating, most is rated up to 600 volts. Many cheaper extension cords found in the home, "zip cord" style are only 14 gauge stranded 2 conductor. Using 2 conductors eliminates the ground which, depending on who you ask is not a good thing to do...

Hasen't windows always self-destructed given enough time over the years? Dont think, save for "maybe" Win NT, i ever remember a consumer windows build being totally stable and not slowly corrupting itself regardless of the hardware it runs on. Personally, i usually install apps to an...

Personally, I wish I had 64GB for Adobe Premiere. I had 16GB for the better part of a year and it constantly went to the storage drive when working projects. Now I have 32GB and it does that "Much" less. Editing mostly 1080P RAW from an Atomos Ninja SSD recorder, file sizes are in the few GB...

My system specs prior to the failure. Gigabyte X99-UD3P, Intel I7 5820K, G-Skill 16 GB Quad Channel DDR4 3000MHZ model F4-300015Q-16GVR, EVGA 700B PSU, EVGA GTX960 SC, Kingston V300SSD 250GB, HP DVD-RW, Corsair H100I GTX Liquid Cooling, WD Caviar Black 1TB Media Storage drive on windows 8.1...
