  1. Will a new GPU bottleneck?

    Alright guys, it's about time to upgrade my PC. For the majority of my PC use, it is for gaming, so that is going to be the goal for this upgrade. Here are my current specs: mobo: Gigabyte H81M-S2PV cpu: i5-4570 @ 3.2 ghz ram: 8 GBs of DDR3 1600 (4 GBs ea) I've had this PSU for about 4 years...
  2. Windows 10 black screen full screen

    I've been using the latest driver for my card, there was recently a UI update for AMD's catalyst control center, however, I'm not sure if that included a new driver as well, if it did...that would mean two separate drivers and both would be having the same issues. My primary monitor has no...
  3. Windows 10 black screen full screen

    This is blowing my mind. Anytime I full screen a video or game, my monitor turns black during random scenes. The second I run it in a window, it goes away. Full screen windowed does not fix the problem, but an actual window does seem to fix the problem. Here's what I've gathered: If I alt...
  4. Monitor not detecting

    After moving my brother and my computer stuff, his monitor no longer detected his computer via the dvi port. I know his computer was working, it even allowed us to long into windows, the monitor was just not receiving the video signal. So I decided to test my own monitor on his computer, and...
  5. Replacement CPU/heatsink fan

    So I just replaced my mobo (long story) Buuuuut, I broke the hinges on the CPU's fan, so I'm going to have to get a replacement fan. I emailed Intel to see if they'd send me one, if not, I'll have to get an aftermarket one. In which case, which aftermarket solution should I settle with?
  6. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    I actually already ordered this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...&SID=u00000687 I could cancel it though. It probably doesn't really make much of a difference.
  7. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Ohh, I get what you mean now. Ehh, I don't know if I'd want to risk that. I guess I'll just get a new motherboard, I have to reinstall Windows anyways since I'm getting a SSD next week. On that note, Windows 7 or Windows 8 :p?
  8. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Are you implying I should plug my PCI extender into a right angle adapter? Because that still wouldn't work, I tried to explain this in my picture. I can connect the cord into the PCI slot on the motherboard just fine, the problem is the PCI slot on the cord is simply too tall, much higher than...
  9. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Like I said before, all the right angle risers simply make the card sideways, I can't mount it if it's sideways. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...angle+riser+x1 See what I mean?
  10. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    I just purchased the PCI cord, and my sound card still doesn't fit, see here: http://i.imgur.com/Fx2xw4y.jpg Imagine the sound card mounted on top of that, the only problem is that's about 2-3x times higher than the motherboards PCI slot, so the sound card won't properly mount into my case, it...
  11. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Yeahhh, if the soundcard is facing the wrong way, how will I get to the audio ports from outside the case :p?
  12. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    I already ordered it. If worst comes to worst I could weld a popsicle stick between the riser and the GPU, I'd be pretty mad if I had to do that though.
  13. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    I do like that idea more than popsicle stick mods, I suppose I can try that out. Thanks guys.
  14. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Oh sorry, this is my card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814125414
  15. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    It's a 7950. I'm not going to lie, that fix sounds super ghetto, could having the cards not stand perfectly straight damage the cards or pci slots? I'm so glad I don't have a glass panel, I wouldn't be able to stand looking at that everyday (assuming I did it) lol. And even then, how badly...
  16. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    The problem with the soundcard being that close is the fact that its SO close that my gpu fans were actually hitting the card when I turned my PC on :/.
  17. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Idling at 34 celsius right now (27 celcius in my house), I'm sure I could get better temps if I put my side panel fan back in but I haven't done that yet, just played Dirt 3 for about 30 minutes, GPU temp is 61 celsius.
  18. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Oh wow, thanks for noticing that davey <_<. I did do some tugs to make sure it was secure after putting it in, but it may be only semi secure so I'll fix it :p. It's idling at 30 degrees celcius so at least it isn't in the dannnnger zone. That mobo looks more suitable, will it fit inside of my...
  19. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Yeah, that does seem like a ghetto fix, I have a pretty high end sound card and I'd be afraid of it being bogged down by a cheap cable...am I just being paranoid?
  20. Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    So I have a Xonar Essence STX sound card, and a ASRock motherboard as seen below, and a 7950 GPU. I JUST built this PC, and for some reason I neglected to tell the people in my build thread that I had a sound card. Basically, the GPU and sound card are pretty much touching, which is no good, so...
  21. New hardware old software

    Sysprep should work then, I'm using a clean install and iirc I've never had to do a Windows repair. Thanks for the help guys.
  22. New hardware old software

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136283 That's my hard drive. My new PC will support it. I can't just like, uninstall the drivers for my current motherboard and then put the new one in? So, it's better to install the drivers of the new motherboard, put the new motherboard in...
  23. New hardware old software

    I'm using the HDD as the primary drive right now, until my SSD arrives in a week or two. I'm just wondering if I can just remove all of my old hardware minus the HDD (gpu, cpu, motherboard, psu, ram) and simply put in my new hardware and expect it to work on the same HDD. Is there any prep...
  24. New hardware old software

    So, basically I'm getting all new PC gear tomorrow, and the only thing I'm keeping from my last PC is a hard drive. I was just curious, will I have any issues simply putting my components together with my old hard drive? Is there anyone I need to remove/uninstall to prevent my PC from going...
  25. $650 Gaming PC

    Yeah, I think I'm going to do a temporary install of just the hardware and drivers on my current install of Windows 7 on my HDD to see if everything works, and so I can play video games. After I get my SSD, I'll wipe that install and just install Windows 8 onto my SSD. Thanks for the help guys...
  26. $650 Gaming PC

    It's not the fact that it's desolate, the amazon gift card I'm getting is from my bank, and it's supposed to ship within 5-10 days, and then on top of that I'll have to buy the ssd AFTER I get that card and wait probably a few days after that. All my other crap is supposed to come on Wednesday...
  27. $650 Gaming PC

    I ordered it this morning with the Gigabyte. So I'm wondering, if I wipe the HDD I'm using now, and then install Windows 8 and all of my drivers to it, how hard would it be to move Windows 8 and all the drivers (and maybe a few applications I may have downloaded?) to the newly acquired SSD I...
  28. $650 Gaming PC

    Is it alright to swap the GPU with this Gigabyte? The PowerColor is out of stock now. I think I'm going to go with this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814125414 What do you guys think of me not buying a HDD and just getting a SSD? The reason I'm considering this is because I...
  29. $650 Gaming PC

    I'll get the ssd later, thanks guys. I'm probably ordering this PC this week, I have to wait until I get my $100 gift card for amazon.
  30. $650 Gaming PC

    Alright, so basically all the stuff monkeydelmagico stated, minus the HDD, swapping it for a $20 less HDD? I'll wait for a few confirmations from you guys and then purchase it :).
  31. $650 Gaming PC

    I probably won't really be overclocking, I thought I would on this pc but I never did after 4 years lol. 1 TB would probably be good for me, I'm not a space snob, if I need more space I'll just delete something. If you truely believe that AMD card is superior I suppose I can settle with it, I...
  32. $650 Gaming PC

    The hard drive does appear to be a black series: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136283 A hard drive failure sounds devastating though, its one of the worst things that could ever happen to your PC I feel. How do you feel about continuing on with this HDD knowing that its a black...
  33. $650 Gaming PC

    I edited the OP with some things from the posted thread above. So you wouldn't reuse the HDD...but it's fine? Did you mean the PSU? And yes, I have an optical drive. I was thinking of skipping on the SSD for a better GPU as well. I'm kinda leaning towards Nvidia for my gpu since the awful...
  34. $650 Gaming PC

    I'm hoping to build a budget friendly gaming PC build. This PC will be primarily used for gaming, and maybe a little game recording on the side. I already have a mouse, keyboard, and Windows 8 64 bit. Budget is $650 USD. I think I'm going to try to get an Nvidia GPU because AMD's driver support...
  35. CM Storm Quick Fire Pro USB issues

    So what do you guys suggest? Should I RMA it? I've had it for less than a year and have the receipt to prove it.
  36. CM Storm Quick Fire Pro USB issues

    I tried plugging my keyboard into a different computer, got the same USB device not recognized, it has malfunctioned. Could the cord be causing a short? I literally JUST had it replaced. I never mistreated the cord, I never tugged on it when moving my keyboard around.
  37. CM Storm Quick Fire Pro USB issues

    I'm actually not completely sure if this is a hardware or software problem, but my keyboard is acting odd. Anyways, I have the CM Storm Quick Fire Pro keyboard, and it suddenly is deciding to malfunction all the time. A message will pop up in the taskbar saying the device is not recognized...
  38. Applications failing to load

    Hello there... My PC has suddenly decided not to load any applications I click. I use Windows 7 64 bit. Basically, I'll click any application (be it skype, steam, firefox, windows media player, even programs within the control panel) and it'll look like it's about to load but it won't actually...
  39. Computer won't turn on

    I just checked on EVEREST, and the computer I'm on does use DDR2 SD RAM, so I suppose I could test it on my mobo. I'll also try to reseat my CPU and stuff, although it only went in one way, so I doubt that's the problem.
  40. Computer won't turn on

    The cpu fan came with thermal paste already attached via three strips on the bottom of it.
