    Motherboard upgrade question:

    Interesting, when I run performance metrics on games currently, the 970 is pegged 95%+ utilized pretty much the entire time a game is open, while the CPU will be 20-30% utilized. Does this mean that the CPU is currently not fully committed due to the bottleneck at the GPU? Or, are the...

    Hi all, My current rig (specs in sig) is in desperate need of a graphics update, and I've been eyeing a Sapphire 6900XT Toxic.

    Most aesthetically appealing Video Cards of All Time?

    The Genesis of my PC gaming life started with this card, when I won one by playing CS:S on their hosted servers. I had to build an entire new computer as the Dell my dad had still only had AGP. RIP BFG, and the 7800GTX is the GOAT in my book.

    21:9 V. 16:9 Curved: Thoughts?

    Thanks for the feedback. I am specifically asking about curved screens. I had not considered the issue of games not supporting ultra wide. That is certainly a major factor in the decision.

    21:9 V. 16:9 Curved: Thoughts?

    Today, I worked remotely from home and was able to use my Wifes recently purchased LG 34UC88 21:9 curved monitor. It's my first experience using an ultra-wide, and first time using a curved. I have been in the market to upgrade my main desktops display from a samsung S32D850 (WQHD model) to...

    They didn't shoehorn her in, the stinger of Avengers forecasted it, which means they had to write these narratives years ago.

    Volvo to Impose 112 MPH Speed Limit on All New Cars from 2020

    Most cars sold already have a limiter, all trucks have a limiter around 105mph, my 2006 Mustang had a limiter at 108mph to keep the two-piece driveshaft from coming apart. 99% of buyers will not even know this is a thing. So cool for Volvo? that's a big bragging right and great advertising...

    Amazon Announces Plan to Fight Counterfeits

    Maybe Amazon shouldn't allow any joe schmoe become a seller? The biggest contributor to the fakes problem is the 'drop ship' sellers that host out of amazon warehouses. I won't buy off of amazon unless it states 'shipped and sold by amazon'

Still had various issues with failing windows installations, and the Samsung drive would randomly disappear from the drive list when installing windows. I then attempted to install to a spare generic HDD, but still could...

    A mish mash of Errors: What's bad in my system?

    Hi all, On Sunday, I was playing Apex Legends, when all the sudden my game crashed, I know there have been some stability issues with the game, so I thought nothing of it. I rebooted the game, and then before I was even back to the title screen, my machine BSOD'd with a 'page fault in non...
