    Looking for Z170 Mobo Suggestion

    I went with the ASUS Maximus VIII Gene and it has been great. After only a few minutes I had my i7-6700k overclocked to a stable 4.6 GHz. It was my first mATX build. The only issue I had was that my fairly large air cooler blocked one of the PCIe slots, but since I only intend to use one...

    ASUS Maximus VIII Gene & Noctua NH-D15S

    Every one seems to agree that it is not a problem. I completed the build and the benchmarks are great.

    ASUS Maximus VIII Gene & Noctua NH-D15S

    I didn't realize that the Noctua NH-D15S actually overhangs the first graphics card slot on the ASUS Maximus VIII Gene. I am only running a single GTX 970 so at first it seemed I was ok. But then I noticed that the two PCIe slots are not the same, the first is a x16/x8 slot but the second is...

    Thinking about replacing Noctua NH-U12P on my overclocked i7-920

    I have a very similar system (930 instead of 920) and have been running it 3.8GHz for 4+ years without any issues. The temps you show are in line with what have experienced. If 3.8 is stable, I wouldn't worry about the temps.

    Sony Wants Watermarks And Online Authentication Before Each Movie

    My last Sony purchase was a CRT Trinitron in the last century. I refuse to buy any Sony product due to their overbearing DRM. If we vote with our wallets we can make life as unbearable for them as they make it for us.

    Intel Launches App Development Environment

    I went to the Intel website and tried to download the software, but the download button gave me an "about:blank" page. Not a good sign for a company purporting to offer an HTML5 development environment. I'm using Firefox 20 on Ubuntu.

    Good graphics card with rear fan exhaust?

    The manual for the Silverstone TJ08-E micro-atx case recommends the use of graphics cards "that have fan blowing exhaust air to the rear slot." Can anyone recommend a mid to high range graphics card that meets this requirement? I like the ASUS overclocked 670, but that blows air into the case.

    ASUS P6X58D reviews/opinions?

    I've had zero problems with this board, although it is not very compatible with the HAF 922 case due to the location of the HAF 922's motherboard cutout. It's not a deal-breaker since I don't plan on switching coolers very often!

    overclocking asus motherboard

    I went with the P6X58D premium and my i7 930 overclock went very easily. My only problem with it is that the motherboard cutout on my Cooler Master HAF 922 doesn't match up well with the location of the cpu chip, so Istill have to remove the motherboard to change cooler brackets. But that may...
