    [SOLVED] DDR3 Dual Channel 1066 Mhz vs Single Channel 1600 Mhz

    Hello! I am making this post to ask which memory setup is better: DDR3 Dual Channel 4x4 gb 1066 Mhz or Single Channel 2x8 gb 1600 Mhz. I can no longer use 4x4 GB in dual channel mode at 1600 Mhz because of damage to my motherboard. Context: A couple weeks ago I managed to bend some pins on my...

    [SOLVED] 8 gb 2666 mhz (single channel) VS 16 gb 2666 mhz (dual channel) - Why there's no difference in fps while gaming?

    It sounds like Skyrim is not using your GPU and CPU resources properly. I do not think that is a memory issue as Skyrim was released in 2011 when 1600 Mhz DDR3 memory was standard. I think that is just because Skyrim does not have a very well optimised engine. 75 FPS is very good anyway, so I...

While i was out it rained quite a bit, and since my pc is situated almost in front of my window ( with the back of the pc towards the window ), it also rained on my pc and on the extension...

    4k GAMING BUILD (and questions)

    Oh, so you want triple SLI. The motherboards provided by James support three way SLI, but apparently on Skylake CPUs like the 6700 the motherboard needs to do some tricks that sacrifice some performance to enable three way SLi. So if you want three way SLi, get a 5820k and the x99 motherboard...

    4k GAMING BUILD (and questions)

    1) 750 watt PSU is not plenty for SLI. 850 W should be good, and 900 W even more so, especially if you will overclock. 2) a 4k monitor can run 1440p, but it will look worse than on an native 1440p screen. If you will game at 1440p, get a 1440p monitor. a 980ti for 1440p is sweet, and for 4k one...
