    Black Desert Online or The Division?

    If you are choosing one, which do you choose? I know they aren't exactly the same category, but was wondering if anyone else was considering playing both or either? I really enjoyed the CBT2 of BDO, however, the cash shop along with B2P seems a bit like a big money grab. I'm a big fan of the...

    Dual 390X?

    I've seen the benchmarks, I'm wondering what everyone's thoughts are on if this is worth it. I currently have the Asus 390X OC model and it runs ridiculously hot despite good case flow (90C unless I set a custom fan profile). My CPU on the other hand rarely gets above 50. I think my case may...

    GA-Z170X Gaming 7 Mem Help

    Slots 3 and 4 won't work even with single stick. Single stick works in 1 or 2, and 2 sticks work so long as they are in slots 1 and 2. Is this for sure a motherboard issue? I read memory controller is on CPU and this could be bent pins our uneven pressure from fan. i6600k, Crucial 8GB x 2...

    Fractal Arc Midi R2 - Need help...

    I need someone with a Midi R2 to help me out. The clearance on my Hooker computer cabinet is only 18.25" (maybe a smidgen less). I really want this case but I'm concerned. First that it won't fit. The spec sheet says 18.11", is that with or without the feet. Is that accurate? Second, if it...

    Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 GHZ OC 2GB

    My 6950 is artifacting in DX10/11 games (not DX9 though)... so I bought a Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 GHZ OC 2GB yesterday at Amazon for $215 (with $15 rebate)... But I may be having a little bit of buyer's remorse after reading about all the black screen issues with not only the 7870s in general...

    FS: HIS 6950 2GB - $100..

    This HIS 6950 purchased from member Machupo on 2/23/2012 (thread). This card started artifacting in DirectX 10/11 games on 7/23/2012 and I was unable to get it to RMA due to HIS being jerks mainly. Machupo was able to provide the NewEgg invoice (card was bought 1/30/2011), but because I wasn't...

    Best Fan Control Software

    So my card has decided that it's going to ignore the fan that's setup in the BIOS. So I'm curious as to what the best software is for managing the fan. I've got HIS iTurbo downloaded, and I also tried Sapphire TRIXX (which is actually the exact same program as iTurbo, and probably MSI...

    Buying used SSD? Any concerns?

    I know that SSDs degrade over the life of the drive as they are written, but should I have any concerns about buying a used one from Amazon that is fulfilled by Amazon, is 'Like New' and with a seller with 95% feedback rating? I'm considering either the 120GB Intel G2 ($110) or the 120GB...

    WTB 120GB SSD

    I want to finally upgrade to an SSD but I don't know much about them... I figured getting a used one is probably (hopefully) the best idea so I'm not paying out the wazoo for it... I've heard good things about the Crucial M4 but not sure if it can get down to $1/GB used which is about all I...

    Replacing thermal compound on CPU...

    What is the best way to do this... and safest? I've read you can use alcohol, but what concentration percentage? Should I leave the chip socketed while I clean it off and re-apply? Also, which application method is best, pea size drop in middle, or thin layer? I'll be applying MX-2.

    Most important number in benchmarking a video card?

    Shouldn't it be a minimum FPS? We are getting into a time when there are multiple cards performing well above where they need to be for adequate gameplay. That said, to me, the most important thing is the minimum frames per second (assuming that the average is close to 60 FPS). What does...

    Crossfire 5770's with only 550 Antec True Power?
