eMachines

Sorry I wanted to share a story but I didn’t know which category to post it so I went here, please correct it if it’s in the incorrect thread, thank you!! Hello everyone on Tomshardware, today I just want to share my experiences of building gaming PCs over the past 4 years. It’s been a blast...

I was recently given a pretty old Emachine PC, the EL1333 SFF to be exact. I upgraded the CPU to an Athlon x2 b26 and plan to upgrade the RAM to 4gbs ddr2. The PC has a 250w power supply which limits the possible GPUs I could use. I know it's usually not worth upgrading these systems, but I need...

Is the Corsair 570x compatible with this motherboard? Thanks. p.s I am upgrading and getting new hardware down the line, I was just wanting to get the case first as its in my budget.

Hey everyone. I’ll be building a new PC soon, and I had a question. My GPU is a RX 570 8gb. I’d like to squeeze every ounce of performance out of it, and I was wondering if overclocking it was a good idea. How would I go about this, and what would be the downside?

I have had my Ryzen 5 1600 overclocked to 3.85 ghz at 1.3 volts, but when I had hwmonitor open I saw my voltage would drop to 1.23v, nothing happens because of the voltage drop because of my very stable overclock but when I want to push my chip a bit farther how do I adjust the LLC for the cpu...

I recently rebuilt my computer with a 2700x and the Aorus 1080ti and I seem to be getting less than average performance in games compares to benchmarks in games that I am seeing for a similar setup. However, the setup does well in benchmarks such as Time Spy in which i get a score of 9853. My...

A few days ago I recently started encountering a ping spike issue that has been on and off for all the devices on my network. It's strangely very consistent happening exactly every 5-6 seconds. I run a wired connection, and have tracert'd both akamai and google.com with the same behavior on...

CSGO over Ethernet ping is 32, Wi-Fi ping 34, Powerline ping 39. Is powerline still better or more stable than Wi-Fi for gaming? Wi-Fi ping doesn’t look too bad compared to direct Ethernet. Some times Wi-Fi ping is even the same as Ethernet. Why do many people say that we can’t game over wifi...
