    Check email accounts that use mine for backup?

    Hey guys, after being on the Internet for many years, I've made quite a few emails accounts. I'd like to find some of these old accounts but I can't remember their names. Is there a way to check on my main Gmail account what email accounts use it as their backup account? Thanks!

    Found very odd pictures with Recuva...

    Alright so today I decided to run Recuva (a file recovery tool) on my old 1Tb HDD, which I've been using for about 3 years now. I recovered everything I could to see if I had anything interesting which I had previously parted ways with. The results were... surprising. Through the hundreds of...

    What do you think is the hardest part of building a PC?

    Yes, installing the damn CPU cooler alone and without a mobo clamp is annoying.

    Hard Drive stops running when not in use

    Hey guys, ever since I've been using my SSD, which has been a while now, I've obviously been storing pictures and videos on an HDD. The only thing, however, is that when I don't store anything on it or simply open it up for a while, it seems to stop or at least drastically slow down. Whenever I...

    CPU GPU Bottlenecking

    Yea I agree this definitely sounds like the cpu. I'm not at all surprised by this as the 750 is a decent card whereas the x2 you have isn't that great...

    I personally would not recommend 4x SLI, because graphical power does not scale linearly. There is almost no difference between 3 and 4 760's, and most other cards for that matter. It would be a much smarter choice to get a single 780Ti instead of 4 760's.

    Help choosing a motherboard?

    Well for you want to be doing, an a 5930 or 5820 (whichever you meant) would be complete overkill and will also require you to buy more expensive and premium motherboards. What I would recommend instead would be an i7 4770k, which is an amazing multi-tasker. If your budget is really less than...

    Help if need Graphic Card or not

    Actually what was aforementioned about the i3 being slower is not true. Both 4th gen i3 and i5 are built on the same architecture and use very similar cores, the difference is that the i5 has 4 cores whilst the i3 has 2 cores (4 with hyper-threading). This means that it will be just as fast for...
