    Memory compatibility question

    I have it set to all cores at 4.7 GHZ but that's about it, in the past I have OC'd all my pc's but they didn't run as hot as this one. Do you have any memory suggestions?

    Upgrades for computers at work

    Hi all, sorry about the long delay in replying. I agree with a lot of what was said here. Part of me can empathize with the fact these machines were specced during coffee lake era when the cost of RAM was at an all time high, I myself upgraded then to a 8700k with 16 gig of 3200mhz RAM and...

    Is this possible sata cable faulty from new?

    I remember when I worked in IT, an ssd was throwing up a lot of errors. It was actually the sata cable that was broken. You just wouldn't think one would break, same with network cables going dodgy over time.

    Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (2017)

    Main problem I have with this game is it feels choppy in FPS combat, i'm on a 2500k @4.4ghz, GTX 970 @1500 core .1.8ghz memory and 16gb of 1600mhz DDR3 memory.
