    FireTV/Yamaha RX-V573 Issues

    Previously been using this RX-V573 for a couple of years without issues. I moved it into a new room, and now I'm getting some annoying issues with the HDMI passthrough. When I have it set to HDMI1, which is my cablebox, it works fine. Switching it to HDMI2, which is the FireTV, I get horizontal...

    Alright, yeah I have that and it's to the left right now(toward the display ports). I assume it needs to be the other way?

    Where would the DIP switch be? I have a reference powercolor, but I have a backplate on it currently.

    watercooled 290x throttling

    I'm trying to figure out why I'm having throttling issues with my R9 290x. Furmark will randomly dump from full (1030mhz/1250mhz) down to 300/150 for a half second, and then return to full. I see the same behavior in video games. With default settings, I am also getting what appear to be...

    NZXT Kraken G10 GPU Bracket

    I should be able to use the G10, and swap out the back plate for something like the XS-PC 290x backplate, shouldn't I?? I'd prefer the look of a full coverage backplate.
