Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

Hello, I'm building a gaming PC for a friend of mine from work. He isn't much of a tech guy so he asked for a solid gaming pc without the need for upgrades or overclocks down the line. So after doing some research I came up with this build. Now I was trying to get everything with high...
So i ran memtest84+ on both my ram separably and both show huge amounts of red text, count was over 6000.
Is it safe to say I have to get new ram? also is it a bad idea using pc until I get new ram? because it can stay on without crashing 5-60min. does it actually damage other parts and should...
Hello, I have problem with my ram, I have 2x2gb (OCZ 2x2GB DDR3 SDRAM PC8500 CL7.0 Gold Edition)
and whenever I use both of them I keep getting all kinds of BSOD. though if I use either one alone it runs more stable but still report errors when running memtest, that suggests that they are...

Hi guys
I recently built my computer (thanks again for all the help with that btw) and whenever I try to install windows 7 or vista I get this blue screen. I used xp for few days and everything is working fine, tried gaming, videos etc.

I'm not really concerned and don't understand much of the technical stuff, no idea about DDR3, read some reviews/benchmarks, almost no difference in performance, the only thing thay say is that it might be of some use later on, but who knows, well anyone knows?
If we to consider the...
The question is whether it's worth getting AM3 mobo instead of AM2+, afaik perfomance wise there isn't much difference atm, the only advantage is future proof(?), but I'm not sure, it might all get outdated or not be needed at all, so AM2+ mobo might be a way to go, but the cheapest AM2+ good...
Hello, My question is what is the best "bang for the buck" mobo for gaming on a strict budget? Considering the following:
1. Purely for gaming, the rest isn't important
2. No excessive features or extra's which do not affact the gaming perfomance.
3. Overclocking is prolly a must...
I have a question, the case has 5 ventilation spots. Is there 2 in front on top of each other? and do I need to have them all installed?
Fans: Backside : 1 x 12 cm - ( 1 installed) | on top : 1 x 14 cm - ( 1 installed) | front : 2 x 12 cm - ( 0 installed) | side : 1 x 12 cm - ( 0 installed)...
