    Previously Working System Freezing/BSOD

    A bit of a an update. I got the PC to boot again. Turns out the PC will not boot with 2 RAM sticks. If I run a single stick in either slot 1 or 2 it boots and runs fine. If I try to run the stick in either 3 or 4 slot it will not boot. It seems as though those two slots have bit the dust. Do I...

    AMD, Gigabyte... Which Is The Best For Gaming?

    My opinions is Sapphire for AMD and EVGA for Nvidia. EVGA customer service is absolutely phenomenal.

    Replacing a failing GPU

    This is going to sound funny but have you tried swapping the cable you are using? Have you tried any other outputs? You can go into the BIOS and see what voltage the psu is reading at to determine if the power is too low. Your 12v rail should be at 12v or very close to it.

    ASUS RX 470 - Freezing games

    Yes the PSU could be the issue. The power output might be failing. You can go into your motherboard BIOS and it usually gives you a read out of the 12v rail. If you are more inclined you can take a multimeter and test all the rails on yourself. Just had to do this with my PC. Also make sure all...

    Choosing a GPU and RAM

    4gb of VRAM is mostly sufficient for playing at 1080p. If you can get a card that has 6 or 8gb it would be recommended but honestly I know people still playing games with 2gb of VRAM at 1080p. I think the choices you made are pretty good. I think maybe a 6gb 1060 would be better. You can get...

    Previously Working System Freezing/BSOD

    I installed the RAM into another skylake system and everything worked flawlessly with no hiccups what so ever. I am pretty sure at this point the RAM is not the direct cause. I also took a multimeter and tested all my connections on my PSU and it is running fine so that has been eliminated as...

    Previously Working System Freezing/BSOD

    So just so I make sure I'm understanding a driver on my computer is causing the corruption? And then when the system tries to call on those functions it crashes because they are corrupt? New update: PC will not even boot anymore. Fans spin up DRAM error light stays lit. Attempts to cycle...

    New pc case

    It looks like it's only 145mm high and the S340 has 161mm of clearance for coolers. So yes it will fit.

    New pc case

    I would look into the S340. Really popular case. Or the Phanteks P400s I believe its called Phanteks makes some really nice cases my favorite case manufacturer personally. I believe Corsair also makes the 400c which is very nice. S340

    Upgrading my Rig - PSU troubles

    Is $80 the absolute limit? If your willing to go up to around $90 I would recommend this PSU. Newegg EVGA PSU The 650w is much more than you need but will allow for many expansions without a real power problem. It is also fully modular which also makes it great!

    can't see any difference between High and Extra high on Metal Gear Solid V

    Sometimes the things that change with Ultra to High are not significant enough to be noticed. Shadows or view distance. The way light reflects off of objects. The smoothness and texture quality usually isnt largely affected by going from High to Ultra at least not enough that most people can...
