    Microsoft Confirms DirectX 11.2 is a Windows 8.1, Xbox One Exclusive

    I believe that MicroSoft knows Exactly what they are doing. Stretch out some updates and keep them just enough apart and build into every other update, or every third update things that people want and or need. Very Smart Marketing Strategy. As for me I won't be advancing to Widnows 8. I'm...

    Who to contact when Corsair rebates go wrong?

    The Manufactures do get involved because they want a great relationship with their customers and MANY of them DO read the [H]ardForum. Happy you received the appropriate attention; it was not wrong of you to write what you did in your situation. I know that IF and WHEN I spend the money for my...

    PSU Noisey

    Don't be afraid to air blast it and blow out any dust...then don't worry about taking it apart if that doesn't fix the issue. A new power supply can always be purchased... The experience will teach you that many people are quick to go out and buy a new one when in fact it just needs some...

    Need Corsair AX850 Alternative

    Are there reported cases of the Corsair AX860i having the dreaded Coil Noise? I'm presently building and I understand the AX860 has the issues so Corsair is suggesting the AX860i as an alternative? I'm really sorry to hear that CORSAIR is having such an issue...It will still not deter me from...

    James, Have you read this yet? I'm still in awe, and although the fella did a job on his system he must have used Windows 7 (32 Bit and not a 64 bit system because he typed in 32 not 64... I am only guessing on this part an have no idea...I would hope that in my ignorance of these items and...

    Need a replacement Mobo for this discontinued one

    IF you are going to purchase another Motherboard save up the money to purchase a great one. So many people, even on this forum, spend money on Motherboards and then have issues with them. WHY not spend your hard earned cash on a Board that everyone here has nothing but praise for? I've been...
