Is there anything to be concerned about buying new HDDs and installing them on a 7+ year old mobo? Honestly haven't been keeping up on hardware the last half dozen years. 1) Is 512 byte vs 4k sectors an issue? 2) Using an intel SATA II port instead of III port? Board has 2 intel SATA III...

I'll try to keep this story semi-short. LOL. Mom had a COX landline phone but she wanted to use her cell phone (on AT&T) instead. Contacted AT&T number porting center @ 888-898-7685 two weeks ago and initiated the phone number port. Checked AT&T port website and got the "port status...

Maybe I'm just a retard, but I can't seem to find the option to change the number of thread per page displayed. I remember we used to be able to set the number all the way up to 50. 20 is sometimes too low. Thanks in advance.

I need a 4k (3840x2160) video card capable of driving a Win7pro desktop UI @ 60 Hz. Cheap. NO GAMING. Needs to have one (standard size) DP. No need for DVD-D port. HDMI port nice to have but not needed. My EVGA SC Titan died 3mo after warranty and I'll need a replacement as the i3770k...

Anybody here thinking of buying Nikon's newest monster, the D850?

Just an FYI. Got an "Alert." It said I have no Alerts. I'm sad. Glitch in the matrix?

The homepage I'm seeing is missing some UI elements. There should be pics in the red boxes correct? Pic. -Win7. -Google DNS (same issue with OpenDNS as well) -Firefox 50. -Adblock+ shut off. -Ghostery shut off. -ALL scripts allowed. Firefox updating to v50 & the DNS issues here happened...

I have an original Titan, I believe the one DP connector is version 1.2. Anybody have any issues with getting an original Titan, via DP, to drive a 3840 x 2160 monitor @ 60 Hz? I realize that 3D gaming will require reductions in IQ to get decent frame rates, but will I have 60 Hz for desktop...

Is there any difference between ATX and mini-ITX as far as the distance the memory DIMM modules are from the CPU socket? If all four (or two for ITX) memory slots are filled - say for a Z87 chipset board - would there be any difference in air CPU cooler clearance to the closest memory module...

I need help from the experts. I have my whole system mapped out except for the AIR CPU cooler. I'm building a Mini-ITX system around the Corsair 250D case and ASUS Z87I-DELUXE motherboard. I'll be installing Lite-On DVD drive with 146(W) X 41.3(H) X170(D) mm dimensions. What AIR...

EDIT: Expanding my list to include 80-plus GOLD power supplies. I'm planning to build a Mini-ITX system using the Corsair 250D case and I'm looking for some input regarding which premium PSU I should use. The system will be a high end build: 4770k, 16GB, SSD, HDD, Optical drive and "uber" gfx...

How fast does your stock TITAN run? I'm curious on what people are getting speed-wise as your Titan upclocks itself. I fired up PrecisionX v4.1 on a secondary 15" (1280x1024) monitor while I had the MMO RIFT full screened on my 24" (1920x1200) monitor. Every in game graphics setting maxed and...

Any advantage (or dis-advantage) to matching mobo and vid card manufacturers/Vendors? I'm thinking high end video cards here, 680s and 7970s. MSI Motherboard + MSI Video Card. Gigabyte Motherboard + Gigabyte Video Card. ASUS Motherboard + ASUS Video Card. 1) Compatibility & Reliability...

What are the best 650 watt power supplies regardless of price? AFAIK 650 watts is more than enough for MOST single O/C processor and single video card rigs, so that is what I intend to buy. I just want "the best" not simply the "best bang for the buck." My order of importance of features: 1)...
