Whenever I get up in the high 1000's of fps I hear a high pitched whine from my video card. Wondering if that could damage the video card in anyway. I usually play with vsync on, but Skyrim seems to have a stutter issue when it's turned on.

No instruction came with them. Seems pretty self explanatory how to use. However, they don't seem to snap on over any of my 120mm fans so I had to screw them on -.-
Running an ASRock extreme4 motherboard and for some reason my computer randomly turns on. I will turn it off, go to bed, and wake up to see that it is back on. I checked the bios to make sure that wake by lan/usb/ps2 ect... is all turned off and it is. This morning I was in the kitchen making...

Just built a new comp with the specs listed in my sig. Sometimes when I restart I will get a disk read error. However, it goes away once I restart it. Any ideas?
Trying to enable ultra fast boot on windows 8, but it keeps saying that the vbios doesn't support gop. Does anyone know if there is a bios update with this card that enables it? Also CSM has to be turned off? Not sure what that is, but going to look it up after I post this.

I am having a weird issue where my keyboard and mouse are no longer available when I get to the windows install screen (The first screen where it wants you to choose some options). Tried 2 different disks and both have the same problem.

In terms of price vs performance. Doing a new build currently under $1200 with HIS 7970 and wondering if it would make that much of a difference going to a 7970 or 670?

Discontinued on Newegg and only 4 reviews all 5 Star. Looks like a great card + value over the Gigabyte 670 windforce card I was about to buy, but I cannot find it anywhere. Any reason why?

Build: Intel Core i5-3570K + Asus GTX 670 + 8/16GB Ram
Motherboard budget < $150
Features wanted: UEFI & Fastboot
So far I have narrowed down my search to these 2 boards...
I have been thinking about upgrading or parting out my current PC and doing a new build, but Im not sure which yet in terms of Price vs Performance. I am mainly focusing on Extreme Gaming/music/schoolwork.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming and data storage.
2) What's your...

This card has been good to me until I messed with it. I decided to clean out my case and redo the wiring and put new thermal paste on the cpu (1090T) which lowered my idle temp by about 7-8 degree's (33c Idle). Since that worked out so well I thought I might as well do the same with my video...

I was having issues with my old board and ended up trading for something a little better. Pretty decent deal I got for trading him my ram which cost me like 40 bucks. Now I'm just trying to figure out what would be my best option with a $65 budget...
This is what happened. First off I'm running Windows 7 64bit. I downloaded a password protected RAR archive and then downloaded a password cracking program to get the password. I scanned both files and they were clean. About 30 seconds into trying to crack the password my computer rebooted. It...
This probably isn't a new idea (though I have yet to find anything like it) and I'm sure that processor manufactures would most likely be against the idea because they would not make as much money in the rare case that a pin does break, but why not make a plate with pins on both sides to...
