    High tower pc case recommendations please

    I have been searching for a high quality high tower case. So far my #1 choice is 1000D but its a bit pricey and filing it with rgb fans would make it even more pricey. I am coming from a 900D which i really like but I am going to leave this system intact as a second PC. Phanteks enthoo pro 2...

    i7 4770k overclocking help (BSOD-ing)

    Hi my settings are as follows. I have tried anywhere from Core voltage of 1.24-1.34. There tends to be more stability around 1.3 to 1.31 but I still get a bsod every other day, sometimes even when not gaming. My OC is 4.3 ghz. Temps under loading around 65-68 deg C, cooler is corsair H100...

    4770k instability since CMOS battery change

    Ya a very clean new install of latest gpu drivers seems to have fixed this. Initially I did express which only worked partially then I used that guru3d cleaner in safe mode and did a new install and so far been gaming for hours without issue. Also got my overclock back at 4.3 ghz with 1.3 V core...

    4770k instability since CMOS battery change

    I may have fixed this with a clean video card driver install. Will keep testing. So far gamed for 2 hours with no crash. No idea why the Cmos battery change would affect my graphics drivers.

    4770k instability since CMOS battery change

    Ok I have now tried to load the pc with each CMOS battery in place with the load optimized default bios settings. In both cases I get the same behavior after I launch the game insurgency sandstorm, after 1-2 minutes just in the menu all my monitors loose video signal and the pc basically doesn't...

    4770k instability since CMOS battery change

    They are all on auto, no OC of the ram. Ok so the problem seems deeper. Even at stock clocks (3.5 base and 3.9 boost), my pc will crash after running insurgency sandstorm, the monitors will simply shut off and the gpu fan will be maxed requiring me to do a hard reset by turning psu off then on...

    4770k instability since CMOS battery change

    I dont think I made any changes to ram and certainly they are at stock right now.

    4770k instability since CMOS battery change

    I figured as much, but which one ? It seems my voltage settings are pretty reasonable for a humble overclock like 4.3 ghz.

    4770k instability since CMOS battery change

    I recently did a CMOS battery change becuse my windows 10 times were always wrong when booting. I am not yet sure if that problem has been fixed but now I have a new issue. I was previously OCd to 4.3 ghz I think with all voltages on auto. Now at 4.3 ghz wiht voltage on auto or with core 1.25...

    Can't install KB4528760 Error: 0x800f0831

    I cannot install this either via automatic update or manually. In automatic mode I get error: 0x800f0831 and in manual mode it simply says that it was not installed. Any ideas how to fix this? scannow /nfc shows nothing. Chkdsk also didn't find bad sectors. DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image...

    Infamous Pimax 8kx (4K rez per eye) finally appears

    I read that STAR VR was capable of using 2 video cards and allowing 1 video card powering 1 panel each. I wish this technology was brought to all modern high res vr headsets.

    6 monitor setup advice

    Ahhh I see that looks good. I think what I'll do is I'll use a normal VIVO 6 monitor stand and just make sure my bottom row monitors go as low as possible so top row is lower down.

    6 monitor setup advice

    Probably a special stand too? I've never seen someone do that. Traditional 6 monitor stands won't work in that case.
