    BFV Connection issue

    So I bought a new laptop on Black Friday. It's an MSI GL63 8RE-629. So it's got a Core i7 8750H, 16GB DDR4, 6GB GTX 1060, 128GB SSD and 1TB 7200 RPM HDD. I'm very happy with it except for one problem. The lag in Battlefield V is atrocious and I can't figure out why. My pings are showing 192...

    Does anyone by chance have a spare AMD Phenom (Original, not II) case sticker that they'd be willing to send me?

    HELP! Computer No Longer Powers Up

    Hey guys, I was hoping that someone could give me a hand with this problem that I'm having. So I cracked open my brother's computer case today to add an additional WD IDE HDD. I followed all of the usual procedures, including unplugging everything and discharging all of my static...

    Which speaker should I get?

    X-230s are better than the X-240s...better sound, especially because of the 240's pointing towards the ground tends to muffle the sound. But, any Logitech speakers are great...even my 12W R-20s give great sound considering I paid only $15 for them.

    8800GTS Question?

    I've got a similar rig (see Shadowhawk in the sig) with no apparent bottlenecks.

    Factory overclocks ruining PC gaming?

    Harder than you realize, actually. My 8800 GTS was ordered not as an OC'd version, but when I stuck it into my machine and used the nVidia MonitorView software, I found out that my card was already OC'd to eVGA's "Superclocked" speeds, despite the fact that that generally costs a bit more (not...

    Crysis single player demo

    Personally, I thought the demo was pretty good and really quite fun to play. I had most settings on Very High (with the exception of Post-processing and Particle, which were on High) and the game ran smoothly through the whole thing. I'm really looking forward to it.

    My 9700 Pro died tonight. Suggest a replacement.

    I did the same exact thing when I built Shadowhawk in June.

    EVGA GeForce 8800GTS 640MB

    Wow that's high...I got mine in June for $319 from them...and it turned out to be OC'd.

    PC 8500 Ram MUCH faster then PC 6400?

    Something's wrong with that...there should be no problems running at that res with everything maxed. I know my system has zero problems with BF2 at 1280x1024, and my processor isn't nearly as fast as yours.

    OpenOffice or Microsoft Office?

    I'm using both OOo and MS Office because my laptop's HDD died and I don't have my Office CD to reinstall with me at Duke. OOo takes some getting used to, but I haven't had any major problems with it. That being said, I still prefer Office 2003, but mostly because I'm used to it.

    Knife Badge in BF2

    Knife kills aren't that hard...I have an expert badge myself...though I do remember that trying to get the Basic one drove me nuts...best solution is to try and get in behind them when they don't notice, turn on speed boost and knife them from behind...this works very well at CPs and against...

    Any AT members still play BF2?

    I play BF2 fairly regularly...still an awesome game after 2 years.

    Best AGP card now?

    I'm pretty sure they wanted 30A on the 12V rail which means you'd need a new PSU.

    Superclocked bonus?

    Has anything like this ever happened to anyone before? I am running an eVGA 8800 GTS 640MB, which I received about two weeks ago to replace an old Radeon 9700 Pro. However, when I opened nTune, I found that the card was running at eVGA's "Superclocked" card speeds (576MHz Core instead of...

    How Does Radeon X850XT Stand Up Today ?

    Not true...my old Radeon 9700 Pro (which I replaced three weeks ago) was able to do HDR. The difference is that its integer based HDR, which isn't nearly as precise in its calculations.

    Is my ATI 9800PRO dying?

    My brother's now using my old 9700 Pro in my old A64 3400+ system...it was a great card, still runs great, but it was time for a change...between the two cards suggested above, I'd go with the X1950Pro. It has better performance, and my guess is that by the time it dies on you, you'll be ready...

    HELP NEEDED ON FIRST BUILD!!!

    I did. I've been attempting everything I can think of over the last couple days, but still nothing works. I'm wondering if anyone else is thinking bad PSU, b/c when I press the button one fan starts to spin, but just barely before it cuts out (like a 16th of a rotation).

    HELP NEEDED ON FIRST BUILD!!!

    Well, I followed your guys advice, but now the LED on the motherboard comes on for a moment and then blinks on and off randomly. Any thoughts? Is it the motherboard, PSU or something else?

    HELP NEEDED ON FIRST BUILD!!!

    I must admit that I'm curious about what the results from that would be, but I'm afraid to try it with my computer-building skills. I'm afraid I might wreck something and that this is just a touch beyond my skills. Additional suggestions are, of course, appreciated.

    HELP NEEDED ON FIRST BUILD!!!

    By that, do you mean plug in the power, take a screwdriver and hold it against the power and ground pins on the motherboard power area?

    HELP NEEDED ON FIRST BUILD!!!

    I completely agree, and that's what I'm hoping for here, but yes...that's why the LED on the motherboard is green and lit.

    HELP NEEDED ON FIRST BUILD!!!

    I've plugged in the heatsink fan to the connector on the motherboard, got the 24-pin ATX connector and the 4-pin CPU connector, however, the only PCIe power connector seems to be on the card itself, and I've gotten that one too. My problem is that I can't get the system to even turn on (i.e. no...

    If anyone can help me with this, I'd be greatly obliged! I set out to build my first rig this morning to replace Aquarius (see sig), and unfortunately, my attempts thus far have ended in minor failure.

    Power supply for 8800GTS?

    Quick question, because I also bought an 8800 GTS 640MB. For power, I bought a 550W Antec NeoPower power supply that's SLI certified. However, I've got three 12v rails with 18amps on each. Will this power supply suffice?

    Major PC surgery

    OK, so I'm about to undertake a major PC build process which is involving three current computers that the family is using and a brand new one ordered off of Newegg a couple of days ago. Essentially what I'm doing amounts to a brain transplant. I'm moving my middle brother's CPU, mobo...

    What's the largest hard drive a Pentium 3 (socket 370) can support?

    I still remember the day back in 1994 when my Dad brought home our first family computer that blew away my Grandfather's PC-XT: 100 MHz Pentium, 16MB RAM, 4x CD-ROM and a whopping 1.2GB HDD...the salesman told my Dad that my family"could run a small country" from that computer at the time. Now...

    Arrow keys vs WSAD keys

    WSAD all the way. Though I will admit that I use a non-standard arrangement for many of my other keys-->F to jump, Space to use, C for crouch, V for prone/flashlight (depending on game)

    Radeon 9700 Pro HELP

    I got a slight FPS increase when I did that to about 71.1FPS...this is still about 30FPS lower than what I used to get...is it possible that there's something wrong with my BIOS that's interfering with my AGP?
