Hi, I have Asus Studiobook One laptop and the cpu and gpu was getting to 95c together and shut down after certain amount of time. I didn't know why until I peeked from the side panel that both fans immediately stop spinning upon pressing the power button first time, and never spin again. My...

Hi, I looked everywhere but I can't find any. I only see 2TB options. Do they exist? They are not that special no? Thanks a lot.

Hi, I have 2 monitors, and 1 GFX card driving both. Is it possible to use a device where I can plug into my GFX card's DVI output to record whatever my GFX card was supposed to display on my monitor? I am not knowledgeable in this but I found this...

Hi, I am looking to get the new max q version with GTX 1060 but it's so confusing to find. The model numbers don't make sense to me. Is there a max q version with GTX 1060? Ideally with 32gb memory and 4K display if possible, if not then 1080p is ok. Any ideas? Thanks in advance :)

Hi, I have 2 Samsung 305T 30" LCD monitors (QHD? 2560x1600) for really long time. I am wondering if it makes sense for mw to upgrade to newer 4K monitors that are preferably bigger. I never used anything above 30". I imagine 32 is nice. I don't know what size they are making now. I wouldn't go...

Hi, So I got these 2 wireless adapters: Alfa AWUS036H Alfa AWUS036NH https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B003YHYIT0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B003YIFHJY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I thought NH is supposed to be better newer, so...

Hi, My old mobo had a small attachment with a small antenna (?) that showed me the wifi networks around me. What are these called? And are there ones that can scan very large distances/ranges? Thanks.

Hi, I saw some mobos that can take 4 xeon cpus. I am not knowledgeable to know if 4 of these CPUs: Xeon E5-2670, can be used together in a single PC? Any issues you can imagine? I am a vfx artist so parallel processing is very important (particles, points, volumes, rendering, etc). What do...

Hi, When I search I am getting samsung tab s 10.5, or tab pro 12.2 or note pro 12.2 only which are all seem to be discontinued. Are there any new successors to those? For me 10+" is good. Also I think samsung does a really bad job with naming these products. I heard tab s is better than tab...

Hi, Not sure if the title makes sense but basically a case that can contain a GFX card like 970/980 or titan, with 64GB ram, one M2 ssd and some processor like i7 5930k with corsair H cooler etc. No other HDD etc. Of course PSU. Is there a case that can contain these while being easy to carry...

Hi, I am not a raid expert. I did a little research and snapraid seems to claim it's superior. Not sure if it's true? I am on windows and I don't wanna be an IT expert to set this up. I found a GUI for snapraid, so I am wondering if there is an easy guide that shows how to set it up. All I...

Basically I am working on a linux PC without direct internet access except NoMachine portal. I have a lot of videos on my hard drive that I need to watch (tutorials, so UI detail needs at least 720p). Playing them directly is very slow, laggy, etc on the firefox browser. These things are already...

It seems like ultra m.2 is ASrock's invention, but they claim m.2 is using PCIe x2? Is it better to have m.2 or ultra m.2? Also are there boards with 2 m.2 slots? Are SSDs that use PCIe slot vs M.2 any different? Intel 750 uses PCIe, but Samsung 950 pro uses M.2. Are these identical? It's...

Hi, There are so many mobos but even on newegg there are very few reviews so I am not sure which mobo stands out more. I just want 128GB memory support, tons of SATA connections and USB3.0 connections, not 2.0. Other than that it all seems standard right? Thanks a lot.

I want to use my BT headphones with it and I managed to show them as a generic BT receiver but Windows then tells me the drivers for the Bluetooth Peripheral Device is not installed. AFAIK there are no drivers for the headphones and I already have Logitech SetPoint app, so not sure what else...

I found some links that say that it does. But I don't see any bluetooth options in Windows 7 that I can use. I have a logitech keyboard I use on bluetooth but it has a bluetooth dongle. Is this motherboard have bluetooth as well? I am not sure how to turn on the bluetooth options if so. I...

Hi, I am trying to improve my productivity which involves a lot of caching of simulation files and read them in. What I want is to improve the performance only for current project I am working on. After I am done, I can move these files on a typical platter HDD for long term storage. I...

Hi, I don't need to watch them outside, or travelling but at home if I am cooking or in the bathroom, I wanna watch videos to maximize my time. I don't have a TV, only a PC at home and a smartphone. I can use my bluetooth headphones with this new device I am looking for. I also have a spare...

I don't know if the title makes sense but Windows reports 7GB of memory being used but when I check the task manager I don't anything close to this amount being used. Here is the pic where the apps are sorted from max to min memory: It started a couple of days ago and now internet seems very...

Hi, Right now I have i7 2600k with sabertooth p67. I only have 16GB RAM and I am running into low memory issues and crashes all the time. I was hoping this year there would be 128GB intel CPUs that I could use so that I could future proof my new system if I were to get a new one with 64GB...

I see a lot of mobo manufacturers boasting about 128GB support but Intel CPUs are still artificially limiting the max memory at 64GB. Will there be support for 128GB DDR4 since DDR4 seems to promise much bigger memory sticks? It just seems silly that Intel is pushing people to buy Xeon instead.

Basically I have a spare monitor and I want to use this in my kitchen to watch things or even check out a recipe (less rare). It's just sitting there and I would rather use it but I don't know the smartest and cheapest was to do this. I see there are long dual dvi cables, dual dvi...

Hi, If I were to buy a system right now for VFX (lots of particles, dynamics sims, etc) would this be a good system? I don't know if you would change the individual pieces but 64GB RAM is a must. I want 128GB but despite dozens of mobos claiming to support it, I feel like Intel won't...

Hi guys, Yesterday one of my Seagate Barracuda HDDs started beeping and it disappeared from my system. I restarted and remounted it on my HDD docking station but same beeping sounds and same results. I recorded the beeping here: http://vocaroo.com/i/s0Gq88Q1kd4I At the end of the...

Hi, I just got a replacement board for a server I got a while ago. It's H8DM8-2: ftp://supermicro.com/CDR-A%2BNVDA2_1.21_for_A%2B_nVidia_MCP55_platform/MANUALS/H8DM8(E)-2_1.1a.pdf I hooked up everything but when I turn it on, no fan is spinning. So it can't be the fans and they were working...

Hi, I noticed some sort of lag in windows 7 like my mouse was lagging, and something seem to slow things down and then suddenly utorrent said it can't find the file on disk. When I checked, my D drive where I download things and store some other files disappeared in windows. I can see it...

Hello, I have an old PC I want to hook up my LCD monitor but the LCD only has DVI-D, and the computer only has VGA. I bought a VGA cable and I had a DVI to VGA adapter but it seems like the adapter is not DVI-D but DVI-I? It looks like this: So it doesn't fit my LCD because of the...

Hi, Currently I have a 5 drive drobo (raid5?) setup but I am still out of space and have to use many other drives all over, outside. I was looking at 8 and 12 drive drobos, and 8 seems $1k, but not sure about the 12 drive one. I bought drobo years ago because I don't know much about custom...

I was really impressed with Samsung M70 but it's from 2005 and nowadays only small tablets seem to do this. I would really like a modern laptop like M70, which is an amazing idea for a pro laptop IMO. Here is the picture: Thanks.

Hi, Recently this seems to happen sometimes and when it does, the audio drops out for a second randomly, whether you are watching something, listening to music or doing nothing. I have seen the PCM led to disappear and come back any time this happens. I have Yamaha HTR-6190B. I connect...

Hi, I always use this for watching movies but it seems like it's not as popular as VLC. I don't use VLC because whenever I launch a movie, it plays it with stereo. Same with all other video players. Am I supposed to configure this myself? I thought it should be smart enough to play it 5.1...
