I understand that there is little or no air circulation inside the laptop where the m.2 slot is located. Even...

    Safe temperature limit for GPU

    Hi, I use a Zotac gtx 960 amp 4gb edition gpu and it hits 80°C in most cases if the fans are kept at auto during summer. I use msi afterburner to manually tweak the fan settings at 1:1 and it hovers around 70-75°C mostly. So there's a slider named 'Temperature limit' and I had kept it at 65°C...

    Is i7 6700 non 'K' enough to future proof 3 years of gaming at least?

    @helpstar Ok so that means more power draw. I don't need to have constant 4ghz though. I mostly play games and the speed spikes up then, I'm fine with that. But it concerns me about the 90-100% cpu load at times while playing the division. No fps drops though. ps. sorry for the down vote, that...

    Is i7 6700 non 'K' enough to future proof 3 years of gaming at least?

    As asked in the title, I had a lot of confusion and went through a lot of benchmarking videos and reviews but none was able to answer this particular obvious question- will it be enough for the next 3 years at least? I am not concerned about few drops in Fps, I'm worried about the cpu load and...

    Amd or Intel for gaming?

    Well this is what happens when a company's got no competition in the market I guess. I'm using the FX 6300 since 2014 along with gtx 670 and 12gb 1600 ddr 3 ram, until last year I shifted to Gtx 970. So far the Cpu has no issues whatsoever running games at ultra, and by that i mean everything...

I use evga precision x for that and have set it at 1% rise in speed per...
