Hello
My custom built rig has been playing up for some time now and It's starting to frustrate me. I don't know whether it's just the graphics can't handle a game or optimisation settings but hopefully someone will be able to help me out

Hi guys
Just installed 2nd GPU (for SLI)
I have a massive performance drop when I enable SLI (maximize 3d performance) in Nvidia control panel.

Is my CPU the...
So.. I've decided to record Half Life 2 walkthrough, it was going good at the beginning until frames started to massively drop. I used to record BF4 walkthrough, and there was no such FPS drops(actually I had split second ones that I dont really count as massive ones but still they're pretty...
Hello,
I recently built a new computer. Runs like a dream but some of the games want to install in the x86 program files directory on the SSD. Does it matter whether I install games on the x86 directory prog files, regular prog files via the SSD or the prog files on my 1 TB HDD.
In short I...
Hello everyone,
Once again everyone has made this easier to bare but it seems like this component upgrade has been a nightmare! I upgraded my AMD APU and ASRock Mobo to a Asus Z87I-Deluxe and an Intel i5-4670K. I have been having hardware failure but I finally got everything straightened out...

Hey Guys!

I haven't bought an ssd yet, but I'm planning on buying one. I already have a 3TB HDD with everything I have installed. I'm thinking of putting the software/ programs I need to load up quickly into the ssd (browsers, games, etc) and keep everything onto the other hard drive.
I do not know if...
Some books are labeled as Forgotten Realms and others as Dungeons and Dragons. How do these two relate? Is one in the other? I would like to stay in the Forgotten Realms universe (Drizzt and Cale books I've read)
Thanks!

I have a list of parts for a budget PC. It is not really intended for gaming, but I would like good performance. I have designed it to build for my parents, (at a cheaper cost than what they might purchase) to get a small bit of practice before I have enough money to buy my own. I have used a...
