Power Down

This is probably a dumb question but I just got a second SSD, it works fine. One thing I was kind of concerned with was that on my C drive I have program files and program files x86 and windows usually knows to which to install to, right? So, do I need to set up my new SSD so that its like my C...

I recently upgraded my EVGA GTX 660 Ti 2GB to a MSI R9 380 4G (4GB). In some cases, the R9 380 4G runs better than the 660 Ti, but more often than not, the 660 Ti will outperform it. For example, the R9 380 4G can run DOOM on ultra settings 1080p well, but my old 660 Ti could run Minecraft with...
