    New system - Are these extra adds ons worth it?

    Caution in all things gap, polish etc all a waste of money. It's better for them than for you. Hundreds to polish your car lol but many fall for it as a friend was in car sales

    need new hardware, recomendations?

    The recent release of the GTX 980 Ti 6GB changes this a bit. I don't want to edit the article directly, but anyone reading this can consider the 980 Ti a viable option in place of the Titan X in the recommendations above. It has performance nearing the Titan X in games, but with half the video...

    Why are contacts missing on this M.2 module?

    The contacts are missing because they're not used. The A-key variant of the m.2 spec has provisions for display port signals while the E-key variant drops the display port and adds SDIO, UART and PCM (aka I2S), I'd bet those are the ones missing, especially as this is a dual use card (as it has...

    Bottleneck and need for upgrade?

    About the overclocking is that i never did it before but maybe i'll do it this time. The GPU that i have now is working but a week ago while i was browsing the web the fan went to the max, can't control it with any software i think the temp sensor is broken(-127º C/-128º C depending on the...

    Microcenter Memory/CPU/Mobo bundles

    The store I went to in NYC they were literally advertising the open box as part of the deal with signs around the shelf and everything.

    Bottleneck and need for upgrade?

    Personally, I think you'll see more practical performance out of getting the new CPU/Mobo first (due to the slow SATA etc) but more gaming performance out of a new GPU. Honestly, neither are very outdated. The 4570 or 4670k would be great, it just depends on how much you want to spend - if you...

    Recommendations for good UPS battery backup - for NAS server?

    For most people, the ones with the LCD displays are unnecessary. Extra cost for something that will more than likely be tucked away under or behind a desk and never looked at. Most (if not all) of APC's line has the PowerChute connectivity and software to monitor the UPS and adjust some...

    Help Reviving my Intel I7 old school system

    The comparo is quite flawed I'm afraid. You just benched Cards GTx 660 vs 260. Considering the title of this article, you should have benched GTX 660 on BOTH old quad core C2Q and modern quads like A10 7700k. Search for "Can old athlon still game" for a very good article of that sort.

    Fallout 4

    My system runs this anywhere from 25-50 fps outdoors. Not bad for an old system at 2560 x 1440 but I think I may run it on my big screen at 1080p so that I can smooth it out a bit and play on the couch. Not fully enjoying the Sanctuary clean up. Took up my last hour of gameplay trying to figure...
