    Done New Build - any thoughts?

    Yep I tried that flashy new "10" OS and found it to suck big boxes of donkey dongs. So I went back to the reliable and well established 7-64 so many of us know and still love. So far the results are stellar!

    Done New Build - any thoughts?

    Not so often as to be a "Gamer" - I do have a life outside the box... but running the gamut of Wolfenstein and COD - and have yet to notice any issues at 1440p - but as I said I don't live and die by games and FPS .

    Z170 vs Z270 & ECU Question

    Interesting that is just the experience I had when following the MS procedure ... And Yeah I think I'll just live with it for now - too much installed stuff to blow it up over letters.

    Z170 vs Z270 & ECU Question

    Got the ASUS Z170 mark 1 motherboard and now off to get the processor from MC. Preface - Since the 270 enhancements in Kaby lake appear to be marginal except on board video and better clock speeds - where I obviously dont plan on much of an OC on this board - BUT I WILL be doing a good deal of...

    Newer build off of old Q6600 box

    Yes I LIKE! The Thermal take fans simply Suck! But replacing 10 at a time is a financial disaster I don't need ;) Yes I know the Mark 1 has a steel backing plate (one reason I am getting it) Jist don't know if it bolts directly to the CPU Base - if so even better for the air rig. So you...
