Also, you can easily plug your pieces parts all into a PCPartPicker list, and it will automatically check if parts are compatible. Definitely do not forget to put standoffs in your case. That can kill your motherboard. Do not touch any of the gold contacts on the motherboard, CPU or RAM. It's...

I did the same for an older model ((Can't remember the model at the moment)), but you shouldn't need to mod anything. I know I didn't. Just take note of what connectors are which. The OEM board that came in the one I upgraded actually had all the front panel connectors on the motherboard...

That's a shame that was happening. I've never experienced that myself, I actually quite enjoy Windows 10 but I can see why you'd want to avoid that issue. To stop the upgrade banner from coming up, uninstall update KB3035583 and then hide it in Windows update. I've had it pop back up once or...

I just use canned air, so unfortunately, no. Sorry about that.

No, you are supposed to use an anti static vacuum. But if people have had successful endeavours with home ones, I wouldn't do it myself, but if it sounds good to you, go ahead.

Yeah, that speed is correct pretty much through conversion. Providers show speed in megabits persecond, while speed testing sites will show kilobytes persecond. 5.9 Mbps ~ 720KBps.

Yes, that as well. The only time it would be legal would be to stress test your own network, which I'm highly doubting to be your aim.

I honestly don't know if we can help you with this, since we don't know your intentions. There's most likely some tutorial out there though.

Another stand off sob story, yet kind of not my fault entirely. Was building my first PC, was excited as hell. Had some real small SilverStone case, couldn't even fit my 970 in it when I bought that later on. Put everything together, pressed the power button, nada. Checked PSU, wasn't turned on...

Go to the Windows start menu, search "cmd" without quotes, and press enter. It should bring up the command prompt. Go into that window and type "ipconfig" without quotes and hit enter. A lot of information should pop up, look for "default gateway". Type the numbers and the periods after that...

Have you tried going back to an older driver? A lot of people seem to be complaining about FPS drops after Nvidia's latest driver release. Make sure to do a clean install, use DDU.

Why you'd want to have your chunk loading up to 32 chunks, I don't know. Seems pointless to me, I only ever play with 16 being loaded. Chunk generation/loading is done by the CPU, you'd need a more powerful processor to get up that high. Why do you feel you need to play with 32 chunks loaded?

If it is refusing to activate after a hardware change, call Microsoft support and explain that you changed your motherboard and that the key no longer works. I upgraded from 8.1 to 10, and earlier this year switched from an AMD APU setup to an i5, switching both motherboard and CPU of course. My...

I've had this happen a few times too. Quite annoying. But I haven't seen ones like that in a while, and I don't remember which ad it was.

Thank you for your answer. I'll probably see if Seagate has a 7200RPM 4TB, or get a smaller capacity from them running at 7200RPM.
