    Question Kraken G12 + Aorus 1080ti VRAM

    I just picked up an Aorus 1080ti with an EKWB waterblock, but no original stock cooling components. I’ve settled on doing a custom loop as I might as well considering I have some of the parts to do and to finally venture into custom water cooling, but it’s going to be a little while as I map out...

    Question Asus Z97 Gryphon Posts, but locks up

    Question X99 only detects half of installed memory

    I don’t know but I can get all that info when I get home. “One more thing, how are you cooling that processor and what is the make and model of your PSU(and it's age)?” Corsair H100i, 2 years old, coolant temps never rose above 34°c. EVGA 750 Modular 80+ Gold, model I dunno, and new as of a...

    Question X99 only detects half of installed memory

    Picked up a couple of used X99 boards bundles recently, swapped parts I wanted and sold off the rest. When I installed what I thought was a 32gb kit (8x4gb) I found out that it was actually two 16gb (4x4gb) kits and the Asus X99 Deluxe II (i7-5960x) board I kept doesn’t recognize both kits...

    Hey there, like the title said, someone in my area is selling about 16 MSI GTX 1070 Armor cards for about $175 a pop. From what I could get out of him (as he is being pretty stingy with details), they were workstation GPU's that were in SLI configurations per tower for a company that he's not...

    How To Tell if I'm Being DDoS'd?

    In the past 5 days, I've been experiencing huge drops in internet speeds.

Before the last 5 days, it's been perfect...

    Adding a Soundcard to Dell Laptop/Unsupported IDT workaround

    I have a Dell Latitude E6520 that I recently reformatted and installed Windows 10 on. My intention is to use this Laptop as a steaming PC, and after running my gameplay and such through an Elgato HD60 I found that it actually works very well and can render and output a 720p signal at 60fps with...
