I have an older system that's been working great for years. I leave the system on 24/7 unless we are gone for more than a day. Last week, the system was off when I tried to use it and found that it would not start up. I believe it's a bad motherboard, but was looking for a second opinion...

Now that we know the update is coming can anybody recommend a HDD for me? I'm looking for a 4TB drive, it has to be USB 3.0, can be USB powered but would prefer one that goes directly into the mains. I am working on a budget so the cheaper the better, would appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Hi everyone, My custom built 5 year old PC recently started to freeze only during gaming (The elder scrolls online). The screen freezes every time after 1 hour of gaming: Sometimes it doesn't show this screen and just restarts as if someone pulled the power cable, other times it shows this...

I'm new to the world of Linux and when I looked into one of the OS folders I saw words that didn't look like English. Is this to make Linux international in scope? That would make sense I guess though I would think most users would prefer not having to learn a new vocabulary to use a different...

So I built my first computer in August of 2013 and it works fine except it freezes randomly at random work loads. I ran diagnostics and ruled out the hard drive and the video card so its either the RAM, processor, or mobo (my money is heavily on the RAM). Mobo: ASRock Z77 Extreme3 LGA 1155...

I just bought a cooler master haf x. (first build) It seems like the fans are way to quiet, is this normal? I'm use to store bought desktops, maybe the fans are supposed to be this silent in this case? are the fans not getting the proper rpm? Thanks for the help.

For me I would go with higher MP and the thing is I want it to be crisp and clear when making YouTube videos. Like I want it to match the lighting when I record.

I read that having a dedicated sound card removes the audio processing load off the CPU and slightly improves performance in games and other applications, is this true? Should I see perhaps a 3-5 fps increase in battlefield 4?

Hello, So today I had to change the coolent and some tubes in my watercooling system. Then I used the jumper on the power cord for the motherboard (the big thing), so that only my pump would turn on. Now it appears to be stuck in that mode. When I plug in everything it will only power fans and...

Considering the i5-4200M 2.5GHz dual core processor, paired with Nvidia GTX 760M on a 1600*900 screen. From notebookcheck: http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-760M.92068.0.html the 760M is quite a good gpu which can play (most) 2013 games on high so I'm worried the 4200M wont keep...
