If your remove the legs (not sure if you can) the case is 16.5" tall in normal orientation.

Generally around 6"

As mentioned here, the curved monitor will bring the edges in a bit more. I currently have a 27" 16x9 monitor. I struggle to see what is in the corners now. So, simply going bigger would not be helpful to me. However, as also mentioned here, i would definitely recommend going out to the...

I have very poor vision as well. As mentioned above, the scaling works quite well. So, don't worry about that. I currently have a 27" monitor; that works well for me. I am looking to go to a 32" curved display here soon. I would recommend against a flat 48" display. If you have to get...

I have not had an MSI board in a while. I am afraid I am no real help here.

You should be able to set your fan curves in the UEFI. I don't really mess with them after I set them up initially. MSI also has a software you can get to do this on the desktop. I think it is called dragon center.

That all makes sense then! If the intake air is much cooler then, it would bee able to cool a lot more efficiently. Even without the AC on, your temps are well within the safe range. You might get a little toasty yourself though!

Core Temp is generally pretty accurate. I wouldn't worry about the spikes. it is interesting that the AC seems to play such a big role. Does the vent blow directly on the computer to feed cold air into the system? I wouldn't worry about the occasional spike. If you were really concerned...

HWINFO64 is probably the best. There is a lot going on though. Gamers Nexus Video As far as temps go, working in the 60s is just fine and where you want to be. There is no problem getting into the 70s. A spike to 80 or so is ok. If you are running a CPU benchmark you would expect temps...

It sounds like you are right in the area you want to be. If you spend most of your time in the 60s you are doing ok. Into the 70s for spikes is perfectly normal.

Didn't even think about Chia. This is definitely a likely culprit for the increased prices.

https://interfacelift.com/ for me as well. As mentioned it is down a lot. But, it is up today!

I think your situation was a little different. You had win10 activated to Pro with a Home key. I can see why they didn't want to give you Pro...

Not sure about the live chat piece. I am totally with you on hating to be on hold for the phone. In my experiences, just tell the truth. You don't have to have an elaborate story. If you are changing mobo and not planning to use it for another windows machine, you should be just fine. As...

I agree with this. It definitely isn't the old days; when you had no chance of them transitioning a license. They want people to have windows 10. I am a bit surprised that they haven't just started letting individuals have it for free.

I would definitely try through gigabyte. This is your best bet to get a replacement.

I see. As mentioned there are larger PCIE 4 NVME available. Though you will pay a bit of a premium for that. You could also offload some of those games to that data drive as well. I do actually keep the steam games I am currently playing on my main OS drive. When I am done with it/ need...

This should work great. You will see a noticeable difference. Note that if you just clone the drive you may need to enable trim after doing so. lots of videos and how tos via the google machine.

Either option should work for you. Be sure to get them from a good seller. It is a lot easier to get them already flashed. I don't generally see 9240 cards being cheaper, though I haven't looked in a while. I wonder if the difference is whether or not they are flashed. you also need to do a...

Not sure what is taking up all that space. You must have some data from some big files there? I keep all of my data on a separate drive. So my OS drive is really just my OS. That way I can easily do something with the OS and the data is safe. It also makes backup a breeze. You could...

Makes sense to me!

At this very moment, the PCIE gen 4 will make the biggest impact on loading times. However, their are certain games that it may make a bigger difference on during play. This will likely increase over time. But, in general the impact is minimal as it is pretty hard for a drive to saturate a...

The Sabrent drives are generally considered to be near the top of the pack. Especially compared to the WD Blue. Though if you game a lot, you probably want to keep your games on an SSD. 500GB is fairly tight for that purpose.

I would say that if gaming is your primary purpose, that upgrading the receiver probably would not give you much bang for the buck. However, if you were looking to do that, I would echo accessories4less being a great place to look for outlet Denon products.

I use the corsair XL5. I have never had any issues

The Airmotiv C1+ is a good speaker. As mentioned above you can't know how it will sound for sure until you get it. Though having Emotiva's recommendation to match to their products as best as possible is a plus. They didn't just give you a rec for their most expensive speaker. Does that...

It seems like you take a lot of different directions with things. I have been where you are and realize this is a frustrating process. But, I can't recommend enough that you only make one change at a time and take a very regimented step wise approach. That way if something works or doesn't...

If you have an extra hard drive, I would recommend trying to install windows on that and see if it behaves correctly. That would tell you if it is a corruption issue on your SSD. If it is not an SSD issue, it could be any number of things. It sounds like you had a power issue initially. Not...

Typically games don't utilize multi-core threading. So having more cores doesn't dramatically impact most games. If you are doing other work on you system such as video editing, the multi core aspect will affect what you are doing in a meaningful way. If you happen to go with AMD for your CPU...

The 5800x is certainly going to give you more performance and more cores. It currently costs $120 more. But, that is right around MSRP. You lose the integrated GPU, if that is at all important to you. the 5800x is a solid CPU. I believe the thermals would be better on the 5800x as well.

I would recommend 2x16. Leaves you room to expand later if needed. Seeing you have a 4th gen CPU currently, you obviously like to have our PC last. With that in mind, I would go the k sku on the processor as well. However, you should no it is going to be quite a while before GPU stock...

I try to get drivers from the manufacturers. If these are AMD drivers, I would definitely go to AMD to get them. I do the same with mobo and intel drivers.

I had this happen to one of our Ipad air 2 at work. We were not able to solve the solut9ion. By the time we took it to apple, the cost of fixing it was not worth it. Good luck.

I totally know what you mean. And, I don't really know of a comparable alternative. I setup Roomie Remote on my Ipad several years ago and I got it to work fine. But, it had a lot of extra gadgets; that you had to setup to get it to work right. I switched to a Harmony Hub with a physical...

I would agree. LAN parties were big because that was the best way to accomplish playing together back in the day. Now that latency is low and you can do it much easer from the comfort of your own home with your personal setup, why would you want to do it any other way.

This may not be a huge market for Logitech compared to the other businesses they are in. But, I just can't imagine that this is really going away. This just seems like something that would be able to spin off and be a healthy business. This is truly bizarre to me.

These really were the good ole days!
