    Fan issue with Titan (pascal)

    Last night out of no where my Titan's fan jacked up to 100% and my screen went black. I hard restartted, shrugged it off and went back to playing 4 hours of WoW. It just happened again. Everything about the card is stock including fan curves. Is this card on its way out? This card has been in...

    Need a gamepad. What are my options?

    I bought Chronos foolishly without knowing that I need a gamepad to play. I have a Steam Controller and a DS4. Can either of those work with the game so I can avoid buying and XB1 controller?

    To wait or buy now?

    I really want a Vive. It seems that V2 could posses a lot of nifty and worthwhile updates but rumors project a 2018 release. What do you guys recommend?

    Weird stutter/tear on X34

    Sort of out of nowhere I have been getting some stuttering when playing light games like Rocket League and CS:GO. In NV control panel I have Gync enabled and Vsync disabled. I read that Nvidia recommends having Vsync on with Gsync but I don't want the increased input lag. So both games are...

    Geforce experience and strange driver behavior

    I just installed Windows and one thing I noticed is that Windows installed nvidia drivers on its own. Does that happen with Windows 10? I can't remember that ever happening with 7. It was a very crude driver though. Not the latest version and I didn't have access to the nvidia control panel. I...

    CPU header question

    Would there be any issues if I don't plug a fan into the cpu header on the motherboard? I have an H100i v2 coming and I want to hook the fans up to the fan control I have instead. Would the motherboard prevent me from booting up if it doesn't find a fan plugged in? Will I have issues with the...

    PSU strong enough to reuse?

    Upgrading to 6700k and Titan XP. Will be OCing the CPU. I have a 4 year old HX750 from my previous build and it seems to be in top shape. Will that suffice?

    Not sure what to dedicate each drive to.

    I have a 128 GB Crucial M4 128 and just ordered a 256 GB 850 Evo. Trying to decide which I should install my OS on and which I should use for games. Currently have the M4 as my OS drive and honestly I don't know if I need Windows to be faster than it is. Boot time isn't as great as it should be...

    Questions about refresh rates

    I'm thinking about making the jump to a 120/144Hz monitor (maybe the Swift). I know the high refresh rates offer "smoother" gameplay, but what is it like if you are not maintaining 120 or 144 fps? Here's why I ask- Anytime I go under 60fps I can immediately see/feel it. Seriously, I drop one...

    Consumer grade storage for M.2

    Are there any drives targeted towards consumers that would actually saturate 10Gb/s? I just saw that the Maximus VII has the expansion slot for M.2 and it doesn't seem to make any sense for that to be included. I figured it would stay exclusive for the X99 platform until drives of that speed...

    BF4 horrible lag when launching campaign

    Title pretty much says it all. After I get to the title menu, each frame (that's what it seems like) takes about 5-8 seconds to load. I have never experienced this with any game ever and I have no idea what it could be. I haven't logged into Origin in a while so I saw that it had an update when...

    Looking to upgrade; don't know where to begin

    I've had an iPhone since the 3GS and stuck with it for the 4 and 5. I've had my 5 for I think over 2 years now and I am getting kind of sick of it. I really don't follow the mobile market so I was hoping that I could get some advice based on my interests. First thing is that my provider is...

    Browsing for MIDI keyboards

    I'm looking for something basic, 32 keys and under (to accomodate my lack of desk space), that can simply replace my computer keyboard for under $100. Any solid recommendations?

    The original Legend of Zelda in first person

    Sound Blaster zx and 2.1 speakers/sub

    I just picked up the Klipsch 2.1 speakers/sub combo. Nice deal and great sounding speakers although I'm getting very very little bass from my sub. 98% of the bass is coming from my speakers. The bass should be channeled from the speakers to the sub. I'm pretty sure that means it's not a...

    Fitting a hard drive bay in a 650D

    I've been looking at internal mounts for my drives and I came across this one. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817995073 One of the reviews said it fit in the 650D but I only have two slots open. It looks like it slides into two slots but I saw reviews of other cages...

    Need to replace 200mm intake

    I have a Cooler Master Megaflow for my intake and well, it really does not move a lot of air. It is my only intake and I'm pretty sure the airflow is causing negative pressure. What would be a good replacement for the 200mm fan. I'm ok with staying with a 200mm fan or getting 2x 120mm (they...

    Reformatted SSD; slower boot

    Title says it all. I reformatted last night and reinstalled Windows 7, installed all my drivers, made all my tweaks, and updated windows. Prior to the reformat a cold boot would get to the windows logo and the balls in the animation wouldn't even touch before it brought me to the login screen...

    Stupid chrome issue

    When I start up Chrome I have it set to open as a tab. Regardless if I change it to a specific url it hangs and loads the page (even the new tab page that displays apps) for a second then freezes for a few seconds then fully loads. After that it works fine but it's whenever I start up chrome. I...

    Finding a more effiecient OC

    I OCd my 2500k a few months ago (was my first successful OC attempt) and it definitely took me a while to get it stable at 4.5. It's been a while and I forgot what most of the BIOS settings do (for example LLC, PLL overvoltage c1e, c3, c6 etc). I was wondering if any of those settings can be...

    Metro 2033 gas mask glitch

    I started up 2033 to mess around a bit to see how it compares to Last Light and I can across a strange glitch with the gas mask. I was on the level with Bourbon where you sneak in through the vent and he gets captured. I didn't test it on any other levels but when I equip the gas mask my...

    NV CP SLI AA

    Oh yeah look at all those acronyms. I typically have my global settings in the NV control to default with the exception of power management on performance. I was just messing around with the forced AA settings and I got some nice results with the SLI CSAA settings up to 64x without any...

    Flash cards in SLI

    I have two cards that are running two different BIOS versions. Their clocks and even fan speeds are not the same at stock settings. I've tried getting them as close I can to identical. Is it necessary to flash both of these cards to the latest BIOS?

    2500k upgrade

    I've been thinking about upgrading my 2500k to possiby a 4770k. It runs at 4.5 24/7 like a charm but I feel like I'm not getting full utilization from my GPUs. With the upcoming next gen games I fear they will be very CPU intensive and put my cards to shame. Some of the newer games like Crysis3...

    Skyrim GOTY or something

    Any idea if Bethesda will release a GOTY edition that includes all of the expansions or some sort of bundle that is reasonably priced? I really want to get this game but I truly don't believe it's worth it atm. P.S Steam's winter sale was meh at best.

    HPET inquiries

    I recently stumbled across the claim that disabling HPET in BIOS and Windows helps reduce stuttering and latency issues with SLI configurations. I gave it a test run in Crysis 3 and my GPU usage now consistantly runs at 85+%, previously it was as low as the 40's at times. Minimal framerate...

    Crysis 3 and SLI

    Saw a similar thread but felt this may bring up a different discussion. I updated my drivers to 314.07 before I began playing C3. Running very high at 1080p with no AA I'm getting around 70-90 FPS full GPU utilization. But, I have barely made it past the first room because my FPS and GPU usage...

    680 sli x8 in CPU-Z

    Title says it all. CPU_Z is telling me the link width is at x8 max supported x16. I've tried every possible option in my BIOS that affects PCI-E settings but it remains the same. I this an issue? I could have sworn it should be x16.

    Only mem OC for 680s SLI

    Any negatives on doing a memory OC only for my 680s? It is possible without OCing the core, right? I noticed to get artifacts in games even with the slightest OC to the core. Would I still set the power target to max?

    680 sli bad 3dmark 11 score

    Everything seems to be in order. I have SLI enabled using the WHQL 310.70 drivers, running the "performance" preset for 3dmark and I get a score of P11422. My results tell me that my GPU is under-performing. Anyone have any recommendations? Bad SLI bridge? wrong BIOS settings?
