    Should I get a new laptop if I have S7-392?

    This is not really a technical question, more like an open discussion. I love getting a new laptop every 1-2 years and I have the money to spend on it. However, this time the progress is so small that I am doubting if it's really worth it.. My current laptop is S7-392. i7-4500U, 8GB, 256GB...

    Is 650 W enough to overclock an i7-6700K and run a stock clocked MSI R9 390X

    Hello I have a question

    I am thinking about upgrading to SSD. And I would prefer to just have a clean install of windows 8.1 onto the SSD rather than clone it. How would I do this? I do now have the windows disc but I do have the product key. Is this possible to do if I get a new SSD drive?
