the experience always says.. "ya, max it out! no sweat!" but whenever I even try it, it goes straight to thermal max. even simple stuff: these days, Im playing FFXIV on my Asus PG348Q (34" UW) 3440x1440 full screen, and there is a 1080p side mounted on hdmi, on my 1080ti. Last night, I tried...

Battle for Azeroth is coming in a month. pre patch next week. I was disturbed to see this posted: "Don’t Forget: Update Your Drivers! To make the most of Battle for Azeroth and avoid potential issues, it’s important to update to the latest DirectX 12 drivers. Please note that AMD and Intel GPUs...

HOLY MACKEREL Batman!! recently gave myself a 1080gtx ti, so I thought it was time for a new display to exercise it. I mainly play WoW, casual raider etc. started thinking about the HP Omen 35", then the Acer X34, but settled on the Asus PG348Q. Just received and put it together. many aren't...

Hi just received my 1080 GTX Ti (w00t)! Dell U2713HM Display. was connected with a DVI to my old 680gtx. so I used the supplied DP to DVI adapter.. but the machine is NOT seeing anything higher than 1080p as a resolution? is that an issue going from DP to DVI? also, I bought this card...

getting ready to build a ITX based system, single 1080, AIO my old rig is this mAtx Maximus Gene-Z in a Silverstone TJ08-E. this Silverstone has been a great case, good air filter upfront, easy to clean. thinking similar or maybe a bit smaller, but something with a solid and similar airflow...

I need a new phone. from limited searching, its seems the Note 7 is due in a week or two, right? had a note 3, loved it, now have a droid turbo 1 which seems to be dying... been holding out for the next Note

Hi, considering upgrading my GPU currently running a MSI 680 GTX. displays are 1440p main Dell, and a 1080p side display games generally are WOW, HotS, some Rift not really lumbering, maybe a tad now, still running the 2600k OC to 4.2 in specs.. just thinking 3 generations may be time...

odd.. haven't been watching windows forums lately, so maybe I missed it.. but this AM I see a optional 750MB "update" in my 8.1 windows update .. is this what was formerly known as a Service pack? MS wanting to distance itself from that language? wtf.. lol

hi not really complaining, but I have never had a phone.. get updates.. almost 2 years into my ownership lifecycle.. this seems unusual to me.. Im surprised to get upgraded to 4.4.2... on a almost 2 yo device.. with the way I have been being deluged with sales from VZW, Google, etc.. to...

Just imaged my c:\ to my new Samsung 840 Pro 512GB ( got for $389 the other day ) fiddling with the included Magician app what's the consensus on Magician's RAPID thing? ( ram caching )

Hi over the weekend, the egg had a email coupon for an additional $20 off, so I grabbed a Samsung Pro 512 GB for $389 replacing my Crucial M4 256.. just because. I've run it for over 2 years, works great, but seems like a good time to replace and gain capacity too Ive used many...

browsing around, googling, of course its a very subjective question. Just the same, I'm interested in opinions here. the M4 256gb I've been using iirc 2 years now... just failed to boot. I got past it by complete power down, pulled all power, etc..let it sit. luckily it came back up but I...

So, Professionally, used to use Ghost. then Win7 spoiled me with the great built in full disk image for my home rig. Win8 retained it, but Win8.1 broke the scheduling piece. I can force a manual, but need the automation lost with 8.1 single machine, etc looking at Shadowprotect 5, Acronis TI...

Currently running a MSI twin Frozer gtx580 Dell u2713 ( 1440p ) and a side monitor 23" Sammy 1080p My 580 under load runs about 80c playing WoW. Ill use Precison X to jack the fan to 85%, bring it to 72c. But Ill get "driver stopped responding" on occasion, I think it's more the Precision...

One of the "values" of having the Google reference model... GN with ICS I thought.. was frequent updates and patches etc... 4.02 is months old.... pretty surprised.. I thought it was the active platform for constant improvement... doesnt seem to be the case. sure, I can ROM etc.. and...

So, still shopping for something to replace my very aging Westy 37" Originally thought u3011 or such.. but. not really wanting to have to go SLI to run that res, so shifted to 27"'s.. but what a huge shock it will be to go from 37: to 27" granted the image will be significantly nicer...

win 7 Ultimate x64 odd.. a few apps that I have pinned to my Task bar.. Like Evga Precision, Core temp, etc.. after sitting on the taskbar a day or two.. the image is gone... and the shortcut looks like a unfamiliar or un associated file.. is it because they are unsigned drivers etc...

Symptom: over the last year, occasionally, the Power button would click, the lights and fans within the case would click on, for <1 sec, then nothing. I stripped the leads out of the Power switch, thinking it maybe the switch. Still the same, but If I totally unplugged and let it sit a minute...
