    Sata cables for tight spaces?

    Hi, I'm wondering how you provide power for you SSDs and other components that require the same cables. I have some tight space for some SSDs behind the motherboard, and then another one down in the hdd bay. I also have a corsair controller for the RGB on some fans, that one is also powered by...

    Normal speeds for an Intel 660P 1TB on a Z97-A?

    I recently bought a new smaller case, and I had 3 SSDs from before, totaling at just under 1TB. I wanted a new one but but didn't really have the space for another 2.5" and the cables. I remembered that my MB has an m.2 port and went with a pretty cheap Intel 660P 1TB. Are these speeds what...

    Hello. I recently got a shock when i touched the metal on my usb front port and after that my speakers and headset did not sound right. Both front and rear 3.5mm ports did not work correctly. The sound was crackling very much and came mostly on the right side of my headset. So I had probably...

    Upgrade to 4790K or wait?

    Hi. I'm considering upgrading my i5 750, it's always been running at stock speeds which is bad but I just haven't found the need to overclock before and never read any guides (well I have given some guides a quick look but I don't understand much) so I have no idea how to do it. The new 5820K...

    Question about PB278Q and input lag

    Is a buzzing noise normal when forcing up the Hz?

    I've had my Dell 2209wa for more than 4 years and it's been perfect. And right now I decided to try and set it up to 75Hz from 60. I used a post from "ToastyX" It should work. I don't know why it wouldn't. Maybe the timings it chose for you aren't compatible. Try these manual timings...

    Power on delay with Asrock motherboard

    Hello. Since I bought my Asrock P55 Extreme around 3 years ago it has always been a few seconds delay to power on my PC. So for example I press the power button, nothing at all happens for around 3-5 seconds and then it turns on as normal. I've read that other people experienced the same...

    New monitor for gaming and some photo editing

    Hello. I'm considering buying a new monitor to replace my Dell 2209WA. I like it a lot but I feel like upgrading since I've never had one with a higher resolution than 1680x1050. I'm very interested in Dell U2713HM but I'm not sure if it's a good choice for gaming? I have never had any...

    GTX 260 SLI to GTX580?

    Hello! I am extremely close to buying a MSI GeForce GTX 580 but it's impossible to decide if I should do it or not. Is it worth it? I mean I'd rather have one card that is better than both my GTX 260 and also colder, more energy efficient etc. And I do want to be able to use DX11 in games like...
