    My current setup is a i3 3220 3.3Ghz and a GTX 750ti. I plan on getting either a 1050 ti or a 1060. With those GPUs, will there be a big bottleneck? And if so, will it be more worth it to upgrade my CPU?

    Need Windows 8 (NOT 8.1) ISO

    I have a Windows 8 PC that was running Windows 8 when the hard drive failed. The key is embedded in the motherboard and it's not worth buying a new license. I have searched all over and cannot find a Windows 8 ISO to use to install Windows 8 (not 8.1) back onto the PC. Any help appreciated.

    What's fastest: the OS on a short-stroked 320GB 5.4K rpm HDD or on a 2TB 7.2K rpm half full HDD?

    I've got currently 2 HDD's one is a short-stroked 5,400 rpm 320GB with only Win7 installed and the other is my storage HDD which is a half-full 7,200 rpm 2TB. If I install Win7 on the 2TB HDD as it is now will the OS and it's programs operate faster? Should I make a separate partition for the OS?
