I recently bought this combo along with a set of Patriot 8gb (4x2) 3000mhz ram. It came with a bios up to date enough to have video out of the box. Upon initial boot up, there is no audio. The volume icon in the bottom right corner has a red X. I click on it and it runs the troubleshooting...

So, I think I'm coming toward the end of my adventure regarding fixing the cooling situation in my PC. I've finally discovered the BIOS fan curves, which is doing wonders for the CPU controlled stuff, but I want to try and fix a few small issues + separate GPU control. So, the PWM for CPU runs...

Im not quite sure how to measure the dimensions of the heatsink for my mobo. I'm afraid it may conflict with the space of the RAM or the EVO heatsink under it, though i think it will fit over that based on the shape of it. My Mobo: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M4A88TDM/ CPU im interested...

Hi there! I need to get a monitor. I can afford about $500 CAN. I know it's not much, but then again, with the affordable monitors nowadays, I can see that I could either get a 28" 4k, or a even a 31.5" curved monitor! Which one should be more fun and a better buy in the long run? Thanks guys,
