Alright AMD fans, I need some feedback. I can get a 7820x and msi pro carbon x299 for just under 700 at microcenter. I'm doing a rebuild and actually want the fans of AMD to fire off reasoning to go with ryzen with the above pricing. I'm not a prosumser - work in finance so do use many...

Quick question one of you guys might have an answer for - after fixing the stupid ass Teredo issues in the xbox app I can finally start/join parties and initiate games in SoD2. But it appears that I have no ability to get game invites thru xbox app or join in with friends on PC. Looked thru my...

Brake pedal went out and after many different troubleshooting avenues, I have the potentiometer at least responding. Unfortunately it's a on a very short throw, 5% depress or so, for two different sets of pedals (stock 2 pedal and the T3PA) -so in game they lock up as soon as sensor hits. Last...

Hey all - what are you guys using for A/V these days? My Kaspersky license expires in a day and am considering a change. I'm not all that concerned by the reports of ties to Russia (Ok a bit) and haven't had any issues with it, but it's been a few years and might be time for a change. Any...

I'm sure it's been asked a million times on this forum, but my wife told me I'm just throwing away money. Can you guys that have used it give me some ammunition to use on her to throw away $100 on this?

Hello all, I bought a 500gb 850 evo last week (let's just say I made the decision at 2am) and am currently using an 500gb 840 evo as my boot drive. My question is would there be any value to migrating the 840 to the 850? Will I see a measurable performance increase or will the 840 prevent...

Hi Everyone, I recently upgraded my motherboard and because of my (stupid) decision to go with the 5820k (shoulda went 59xx, the bad PCI placement on my mobo and only 28 lanes) the PCI-E slot layout has forced me to pull my X-fi Titanium HD. I inquired a couple months ago about quality...

Hey Everyone, I recently took over as VP Finance for a community financial institution. I have plenty of basic IT knowledge and have worked with VMWare, Hyper-V and some other solutions. Although I can "pimp" my home machine, my skills on the server side/professional side of things are...

Hey guys, I'm just finishing up getting my X99 build stabilized and part of that process is likely going to be blocking up a slot for my SB Titanium HD. I have the EVGA X99 FTW board which includes the ALC1150 onboard. I haven't had a ton of time to listen (been sick and the build went on...

Hello everyone, I'm a little curious on how much power folding uses? Does it tax the CPU and GPU at 100%? I have a Phenom II 960t and GTX 580 rig that sits idle 98% of the time. I already pay $200/month in utilities and was curious how much it would go up... I've decided I can't handle...

I have been dabbling into upgrading from my PC speakers to some Definitive Technology BP1.2x's I have sitting around collecting dust. What is a better route, using just an amp from my X-fi or using a receiver that is obviously going to do some processing? As of right now it's going to be...
