I built a new system a few weeks ago, upgrading from an Intel i7 8700K to a R9 7900X. The only carry-over part from the old computer was my RTX 3070. I haven't had an AMD processor in over 15 years, back in the Athlon/nForce4 days. This ugly-ass mobo to be exact. I'm not overclocking and am...

I posted this over at the Phanteks forums but haven't gotten any replies so I figured I'd try here because there are tons of helpful folks here. :) I have an ASUS P8P67 Pro Rev 3.1 (Sandy Bridge) motherboard which only has one CPU_FAN header that I'm using for the CPU cooler. I currently have...

I currently game at 1080p and just upgraded my Sandy Bridge system from a GTX 780 to a 1070 and am now thinking of upgrading to a higher resolution. My current monitors are in my sig, the 27" Samsung is 1920x1080 (main display for games) and my secondary is the 24" Dell at 1920x1200. The...

A client sent us a ZIP of their Git repository. Basically it's a ZIP that had a TAR inside. Extracting that TAR gives me a bunch of folders with .git at the end of the folder name. Each subfolder from there contains folders with "branches", "hooks", "info", "objects" and "refs". There are also...

My WD TV Live has served me well for years, streaming MKV files from my server to the TV in our living room but lately the little box has been getting super temperamental and I think it's on its last leg. I'm looking for recommendations with the following criteria: - $100 or less -...

Back in 2006 I picked up a Dell 2407WFP and I still use that monitor for gaming. I have a second monitor, an even older 19" Sony SDM-HS94P, that I use for internet, movies, etc while I'm gaming. I think it's time to update the gaming display so what am I looking at for a single monitor...

In the next month or so I'm thinking about upgrading my EVGA GTX 660 Ti FTW, and am trying to figure out if I should spend up to $520 for a GTX 780 or skimp for the GTX 770 for around $350? I guess the 4GB 770 is also an option in the middle at around $420 and the extra RAM might help with...

I have a Lenovo ThinkStation S30 (tower, not laptop) at work and somehow I've managed to activate a hidden Fn key that causes my P key to open projector output display options and the spacebar to minimize and active window. Is anyone familiar with ThinkStations that knows what is going on...

I'm looking to upgrade my 6870s, they are in cross-fire but lately the majority of my gaming is WoW which I play in fullscreen windowed (ie no crossfire) and I'm going to give my dad one to upgrade the old GTX 260 in his XPS. These are the settings I play at: http:///10qn1ep http:///10qmSYy...

Does anyone know the specifics on the various types of drivers that nVidia offers for the NVS series? My T420s does see some gaming (really just WoW currently) so I'd prefer to use the driver that is more gaming oriented. I've been using "Quadro Performance Driver" but am curious about the...

It's a bit hard to find any comparisons of Crossfired 6870s against more current videocards so I figure I'll ask here. What single nVidia card should I be looking at from nVidia to replace my pair of 6870s? What card would be comparable to what I have? And what card would provide more...

I was digging through some boxes and came across this, it's Model HIT-0400: The device is in NEW condition, I probably only used it once or twice, and the box itself is in very good condition. I'm looking for $150 shipped in CONUS via USPS. My HeatWare.

I wasn't really sure which forum to post in... Has anyone added an eSATA drive to their DVR for added space? What did you use? Pre-made drive? If not, what enclosure did you buy? Thanks!

I'm thinking of overclocking my 2600k now that I finally swapped out my launch board for the B3 replacement. My idle temps are around 28C, Intel Burn test got up to 60C and Prime95 isn't going over 64C. My mobo temp sits at 31C. My cooler is a Xigmatek Dark Knight and my case has the...

Has anyone put the Corsair H100 into a CoolerMaster 690II Advanced? The case has two 120x240mm radiator mounting points, one at the top of the case and another at the bottom. I'd imagine there shouldn't be any issues but wanted to see if anyone had any first-hand experience and some tips...

I haven't gotten around to RMA'ing my P8P67 PRO yet and I figure I better get it done while I'm in-between games. Those of you that RMA'd to the Rev3 PRO, were you able to just swap the motherboards or did you end up having to re-install Windows? Thanks! EDIT: I just checked and my RMA with...

Currently I have my 24" Dell plugged into my top 6870 and my 19" Sony plugged into the bottom 6870. I'd think it would not, but does it make a difference which card the 19" Sony is connected to?

I woke up this morning, hopped on the web and I'm having serious DNS issues. Win7 Network and Sharing center showed that I was on my network but had no internet access. I've switched from Google DNS servers to the FiOS DNS, that doesn't help. The Google DNS seems to be a little worse. Some...

Is it just me or does AMD go out of their way to make getting their drivers as confusing as possible? They just released the 11.5a hotfix but the only place it's mentioned in the driver page is under the "top support articles". If you use their driver select menus it just takes you to 11.5...

I just received my email from MicroCenter to replace my P67 board: So they are taking the board as a return and you get full store credit in return. I haven't decided yet if I want to RMA through ASUS or go through MicroCenter.

As of 10:41PM EST: Maybe because of this BS

My second 6870 arrived from Newegg yesterday and I noticed on the box that it's Rev 1.1. My first 6870 (bought in Nov/Dec last year from Buy.com) is Rev 1.4. Also, the newegg card has a much lower serial number- 4-digit versus 5-digit on the new card. Both cards are model HD-687A-ZNFC. Does...

Will I see any improvement in gameplay or framerate with a second 6870 in my rig? As of now I have all settings in Black Ops and BC2 maxed out (@1920x1200) and both games play well but my average framerate could definitely be higher in BC2 when I'm in 32-player maps. Another XFX 6870 is...

I just upgraded from the 10.12 CCC2 Preview driver to the new 11.2 drivers and the Windows Experience Scores for "Graphics" and "Gaming Graphics" dropped from 7.9 to 6.9 dropping my overall score from 7.7 to now 6.9. WTF? Rig in sig.

When I come to the forums with Chrome the zoom rate is stuck at 19% and I can not change it, it's stuck. It only happens for these forums, nowhere else. Any ideas?

For every previous Windows install I've ever run on a mechanical drive the installation partition manager always breaks off a single 100MB hidden partition ("System Reserved") from the main drive. When I ran the installation on my new 120GB SSD it broke off two 100MB partitions, one hidden...

When ASUS' AI Suite II is running there is a small black rectangle on my screen that I can't move or interact with in any way. As soon as I close AI Suite it goes away. The rectangle has 2 small arrows in the bottom, right corner that are barely visible. Anyone know what to do with this?

I want to spend around $200-$220 on an SSD that is going into my new Sandy Bridge system (2600k and ASUS P8P67 PRO). Crucial seems to be the only company to offer SATA III, how big a deal is that when it comes to the already fast SSDs? Their 120GB model is $244 which is a little higher than I...

I'm getting a new 6870 for Christmas and I'm prepping my system for a fresh install of Windows so I'm grabbing all the latest drivers. This is my first ATI product in long time and I'm not sure what I want to download from the ATi site? On the downloads page there are a few options: 1) AMD...

Just out off curiosity- is my 750W PCP&C enough to power a pair of 6870 cards if I were to upgrade to Sandy Bridge? From what I've been reading, the power requirements of SB are on par or lower than current Lynnfield and Clarkdale specs. (If this sounds familiar I made a similar thread in...

Just out off curiosity- is my 750W PCP&C enough to power a pair of GTX460 FTW cards if I were to upgrade to Sandy Bridge? From what I've been reading, the power requirements of SB are on par or lower than current Lynnfield and Clarkdale specs.

Your mission: To give me upgrade options for my tired gaming PC but keep the cost below $600 (tax & shipping incl.). I play WoW and FPS shooters and typically watch 6-8GB blu-rap rips on my smaller screen while playing WoW. Current Hardware CPU: Intel Core2Duo E6550 @ 2.7GHz Mobo: Gigabyte...
