    Upgrading My PC and Building One with My Daughter

    I think I may just go for this combo after your suggestion of a board with 4 slots. Seems reasonable. https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.3955087&Description=ryzen%203700X&quicklink=true Thanks for the card suggestion as well! I'll grab one of those.

    Upgrading My PC and Building One with My Daughter

    My daughter is in need up a PC with a big more power and it was just the excuse I needed to upgrade mine and pass on the parts to her. She's 9 and generally plays Roblox, MineCraft, Feed and Grow: Fish, Amazing Frog, etc. Her current PC is just something I grabbed from work as we were upgrading...

    Moving Storage Disk from Linux Mint to Windows Server 2016 Essentials

    Yeah, good point. Not worth screwing around and risking data loss, and the future backup drive can't hurt. Thanks for the push!

    Windows 10 Is Broken: Fix It, Microsoft!

    I'm using pro and have never had any issue with updates. I'm in a corporate environment (updates not controlled/forced) and use the OS at least 40 hours a week. I've never heard of it rebooting users in the middle of any task, and we have it rolled out to 800+ users. Is this just a home user...

    PSVR Launch Sales To Be In The “Hundreds Of Thousands”

    Yeah, I'd say it's the hand tracking over the head tracking. Head tracking seems excellent to me, but I've never tried the other VR solutions, so I can't imagine how much better it could be. I can whip my head around (ex. Rez requires some serious whiplash movements) and there's no issue with...

    PSVR Launch Sales To Be In The “Hundreds Of Thousands”

    I've had it since launch, and the little time in between showing everyone else in my world, the time I've spent playing has been nothing short of awesome! I get flashbacks of feelings I had when I got the NES for Christmas all those years ago. I couldn't be more pleased with it.

    Replacing an aging PC

    I have no current plan to overclock it, but who knows for the future. Id' rather have the option available for a little more money spent, than not. Thank's for the feedback on the PSU and memory! Off to put he order in now.

    Replacing an aging PC

    Decided to go with the SAMSUNG 256GB 850 Pro Series MZ-7KE256BW ($125.99 @ Amazon) and will use my older 500W power supply and plan to upgrade it at a later date if I decide to put a different GPU in. Before I bite, anyone think 500W PSU will be an issue? PC Hound Part List CPU: Intel Core...

    Replacing an aging PC

    I'm looking to replace an old ass PC built many years ago. I stole a build someone recently posted and I'm not sure what to do about a few parts. I was hoping someone could recommend a SSD and power supply. Here's the build: PC Hound Part List CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K 8M ($314.99 @ Newegg)...

    Same problem in WHS 2011. I tried installing the drivers from their site, but they have the same problem: "Does not support this Operating System : WNT_6.11_64". Am I really screwing myself is I use the drivers from Windows update? Apparently ASUS won't support any server OS's with a...

    Sony Investigating PS4 Hardware Failures

    Did you watch the live stream of the guy that's being called a retard? If you did, you'd probably agree. You're really coming off as unstable in these console threads. Seems like you're snapping left and right. Relax. Maybe I'm just getting the wrong vibe, but man, you just come off bad...

    Sony Disappointed By "Low" PS4 Review Scores

    This right here. We're in an age where one guy can have a problem, he can post it all over social media, all gaming media outlets pick up on it and the rumors start getting crazy. It has to be a PR nightmare for any company releasing a high profile product.

    Do you still play the Wii

    I got suckered into the Wii craze at the beginning and purchased one. Big disappointment. Gave it to the parents over two years ago cause they thought Wii Sports was the coolest, but that wore off after a few weeks. It sold so well because it was the "hip" thing to do back then, but has long...

    Onboard Gigabit NIC Running only at 10Mbps

    I have tried two seperate cables, both work connected to my laptop but not the desktop. I have tried the drivers from Biostar and Realtek, both don't help and I can't find any older/archived drivers. It's looking like I'll need to purcahse a standalone NIC.
