GTX 970 G1 Hey, maybe u know what kind of noise is that. When i do like stress test on gpu it starts to make strange sound. It doesn't sound like it would be coil whine, more if it would be like grinding or smthn. I looked at fans seems good. I changed fan speed to 100% with msi but not in...

I'm wondering what settings I should use for Arma 3. GPU- Gtx 750 ti SC CPU- FX 6300 RAM- 8gb

Hello, I just came here because I don't know what is happening and I think that it might be killing my side or something in my machine is dying. It all started a while ago, I had 2 x GTX 770 running in SLI, I sold them both and added my old HD 6850 just to be able to play things like overreach...

Lately I've been looking to upgrade and I've been thinking about it for months. I thought 'screw it' recently and thought I'd buy a new PC from scratch. I forked out on this bad boy. I know it's a very good PC, but is is totally VR ready? And how long will it take (estimate) before I'll have to...

I've been googling but found nothing minimally useful about how to interpret kernel panics. Any suggestions?

This might not be the right category but it seemed like the closest. I want to get into the job field of processors and computers. Are there any good free resources to teach me ALL the technical aspects (or at least get me started) of a CPU or any other piece of computer hardware? Thanks

Looking too buy a gpu for my first build, I've pretty well decided on 970 GTX for efficiency and budget reasons. Two I'm currently looking at, on sale at Newegg are: GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 970 4GB G1 GAMING OC EDITION http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=N82E16814125684 EVGA GeForce GTX...

So, I recently built a PC with the MSI Z97 MPower Max AC motherboard because it had Wi.Fi antennas. I booted up the computer, installed all the drivers on Windows 10, but I still do not know how to connect to the Wi-Fi. Anyone knows? Thank you

So I have an NZXT S340 case, with 2 3-pin NZXT V2 fans (top and back), and 2 4-pin Fractal Design HP 14 (Venturi) for inlet. All fans are connected via mobo (Gigabyte 970A-DS3p rev2.0). The PWM fans are both on sys1_fan (4 pin) the other two are on sys2_fan and pwr_fan. So I get it i cant...

OK, so I recently built my first custom gaming computer and I have done a lot of prior research on stuff like overclocking, but I am stuck. So my build is: CPU: i7 4790k (Not overclocked) MOBO: MSI Z97s SLI KRAIT EDITION PSU: Corsair CX600M (I know, I went pretty cheap on the PSU) GPU: GTX...

Alright so, I have a 27 inch 1080p monitor and I wanted to know if there was a way to run it with a resolution of 1440p so that the user interface looks smaller. What I'm trying to do is to be able to fit more in the screen, like shrinking the interface. Windows 10 has an option to increase the...

One of the reasons why I built a new PC last week is so I can play games like Farcry 3. It really amazed me how realistic the graphics looked. So I built a new PC and bought Farcry 3 for $29.99 on Steam. All of the graphic settings are the highest it can go. My firmware and drivers are up...

I am going to build a gaming PC on black friday this november. I have a budget of around $700(But with black friday deals I expect at least $100 off). There are some parts i really would like and some theme colors as well. I would like the NZXT H440 Red case for a red and black build OR...

Hi! This is my first time building a computer, first thread on Tom's Hardware, and pretty much first time everything (currently I have an Imac for gaming...). I created these two builds, at a 500-600 budget (went a little high), and I don't know which one to actually buy and build. Intel or...

Hello everyone, I am having troubles with my microphone. I noticed it when people in AMRA 3 said they couldn't hear me. I went and check it with sound recording and found that i could barely hear it on there either. Then I realized that sound isn't being picked up by the "mic" part of the...

I have just fresh installed Windows 7. When I have my Radeon graphics card in, the computer won't boot. It shows nothing on the screen and I am guessing that I need a driver but the autodetect needs me to have the GPU installed. So there's the problem. Thanks in advance

I tried upgrading from windows 7 twice, and each time it froze at 0% on the page that says "Upgrading windows, this may take a while, sit back and relax." And yes, I'm sure it was frozen, I let it sit for a day before rebooting. It also slaughtered windows 7, so I can't boot into that anymore...

So I just bought a 4690k and put it up with a 212 Evo and stress tested it with Prime 95 and got 80c at 3.9 Ghz. Should I worry about these temps? I use HW Monitor to see the numbers. I tried reapplying thermal paste and changing the cooler's position. Any tips or thoughts about what i've done...

I can't get a readout for my CPU, my fans, or my NB through any programs at all. I tried every single one and am now running AMD Overdrive with the same results. My thermal margin for my cpu is around 70, which is about the max temp for my CPU so i know its still thinks the CPU temp is at 0...

So my original budget was about $2000, but have realized that for about $1600 I can still build a pretty solid PC. I just want to know from people with more experience what they think about it. I am advanced with computers in the sense of using the BIOS and windows and such, but I am a gamer and...

This has happened to my last 2 laptops. Basically I have plugged a HDMI cable into my laptop and set it to project to second screen. As times gone on, strangely my laptop recognises my HD Television as the PC screen. My laptop monitor is just black like it is turned off, even when the HDMI cable...

I don't need a monitor, OS, or Optical Drive. I'm building this for a friend and he gave me quite a small budget. I'd like your input so far. CPU:FX-6300 MOBO: Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P Case: NZXT 210(I've used this before pretty solid but a slightly wider one would be okay aswell) GPU: R9 270X/280...

Hi, I'm here to ask for some opinions on my next card upgrade. I am currently using an older radeon 7770 as a temporary card since my good card died. I run dual monitors in 1080 at 60 fps and play games like: Dota, LOL, WOW, EVE. All of which are not too extreme on the graphical side of things...

Hello! I just installed my brand new AMD FX 6350 which is a 6-core 3.9 processor. The speed listed in computer properties and well as in CPU-Z has it listed as a 2.8 clock speed. I've already tried disabling "Cool and Quiet" but it did not change. How might I go about to making sure that the...

So as the title says, I'm looking to upgrade my PC for the first time after building it in early 2012. After all, 3 years is a decent enough amount of time to upgrade some parts right? My main goal is to be able to play Witcher 3 in 1080p with pretty maxed settings (AA discrepant), and be a...
