Hi all. I currently have 6GB Patriot RAM (3x2GB) in my computer. I'd like to add another 2GB stick. Mostly it's because I'm noticing that newer games coming out have 8GB listed under recommended system specs. The exact type that I have is no longer made by Patriot though. I think it's DDR3 1600...
I'm surprised that you were able to even sell a video game account on Ebay. I thought they didn't allow that.
I've actually relisted the card on ebay. It's UK only shipping as I can't really afford the cost of shipping worldwide. I just hope the next guy who buys it doesn't turn out to be...
Hey all. I sold a GTX 460 on ebay recently and, to my surprise, the person who bought it returned it to me claiming one of the fans would not spin. When I received the card back, I found the card to be in perfect working order with both fans working normally. I was wondering, are there any...
Hey guys. I bought an OCZ Vertex SSD just over a year ago, and a few days ago the drive ceased to function. I got a blue screen error, then the drive wasn't being detected during the POST or in the BIOS. I did some searching online and found out this is a fairly common issue with this drive...
I currently use a Sidewinder X8 without a mousepad. It's on a wooden desk surface, and I have no problems with tracking or responsiveness in games. I think most people probably use a mousepad though.
I am just curious how common it is not to use a mousepad, especially if you use your computer...
I wouldn't for a moment suggest that onboard is better than a potent sound card and external speaker setup, but I'm happy with my current setup. I just have a razer carcharias headset which plugs in to the front audio ports on my case. This uses the basic Realtek HD sound chip which is built...
Can anyone vouch for the LG W2363D monitor for use a gaming monitor? I've decided I'm ready for a 3D monitor and that's the model I'm leaning towards right now. What makes it particularly attractive to me is how cheap it is compared to other 23 inch 3D monitors. Are there any negatives about...
I currently have 6GB DDR3 installed, and when I first enter windows my memory usage is 35% in the memory gadget. It peaks at around 70% when playing games. Is that considered high enough for adding more RAM to make a difference? I'm thinking of adding another 3x 2GB so I would have 12GB in total.
A couple of days ago I got another GTX 460 to run in SLI with the 460 which I already owned. Since installing the card, I am finding that the top card inevitably hits 100c when gaming. When I have the fan speed on the card set to 100%, it still hits 100c. I believe this is an airflow issue...
Thanks for all the advice guys. I decided to go for another GTX 460. I've just installed the 2nd card, and everything seems to be working, but there is a problem. As I type this my GPU temp in Speedfan is showing as 56c. That is while I'm basically idling with only firefox running. When I was...
I just have a question about SLI'ing. If I was to get another 460, would I still be able to run new games smoothly 6-12 months from now? What do you guys think the shelf life of 2 460s would be before they become obsolete? I am concerned that the 460s might be obsolete in a year, but a 570 or...
I currently have a Gigabyte GTX 460 1GB, and the main reason I am considering an upgrade is that the 460 doesn't allow me to run smoothly at max settings on most newer games. Usually I have to turn down in-game settings to High (instead of Very High or Ultra) to get close to max FPS. The games I...
