    Motherboard Suggestion

    Thanks again for the suggestions. Wish I had been able to get back to you all sooner. Alas, none of them resolved the issue. What's next?

    Motherboard Suggestion

    Not sure where this should be posted, but this seemed close. I've been having issues with my PC (hit power, fans spin for about a second and then computer shuts down, repeat over and over till I kill the power) and this weekend I tested voltages to see if I could narrow down what was happening...

    Thoughts on this build

    My son has been using a rather old hand-me-down laptop and it gave out the other day. He is pretty seriously bummed. Instead of throwing money at it (it is a MacBook Pro from around 2008) I though I could just build him a small machine that wouldn't have laptop type constraints if something went...

    Build for work

    A friend of mine does civil engineering work and uses Civil 3D, infraworks and qGIS in addition to the usual office stuff. His office just gave him the go ahead to spend some money on a work PC and I don't really know enough to advise. Can I ask for feedback on his behalf? This is the link to...

    Dark Souls 3 -Spoiler Thread

    Beat the high wall boss, beat the town boss, found an old npc friend from dark 1, beat the forest/swamp boss. Found three covenants, joined \o/, made my dual daggers "sharp" so they scale A with dexterity, level 32 I think, about 12 hours in. The forest has a gank squad of invaders. Cool old...

    How much to upgrade?

    I built the following around July of 2013. It still runs everything I use it for (BF4, Diablo 3, Vermintide, Terraria, Witcher 3) capably. I am sort of getting the itch to upgrade though. I am just not sure what area to target. Like would getting another 1150 socket CPU be a smart move with new...

    Chasing the white rabbit...

    I feel like it has to be said that XBL and PS+ still cost you on an annual basis. Regardless of sales, you are still looking at $30 per year? And that price will never go away. "Endless upgrade cycle" isn't really so different from paying for multiplayer. So you are always chasing something, in...

    Black Screen, but computer is still responsive

    Sounds similar to an issue that I had a while back. I reverted to a previous GPU driver and the issue was resolved.

    Random Gaming News

    FF songs all have the same formula. To my ears they were enjoyable for a while, but the lack of evolution seriously hampered them. And while they are really popular, they don't and never did offer any cultural significance like Nirvana did. But if you like them then you like them.

    Diablo 3

    I claimed my season 3 loot and xp the other night. I am only paragon 595, but my N6 strafe DH is at 1.8 million sheet dps unbuffed. I've seen it over 3m when my gems and rings activate. Crits over 14 billion. Torment 8 is total cheese. Rift level 39 with poor density and affixes in 6 minutes...

    What You've Just Bought!

    Re: The What You've just Bought thread! Just bought this gtx970 But after reading this DX12 test I kind of worry that I could get better value for my money by waiting on Pascal or by switching to AMD. I know that you can always hold out for something better or cheaper, but if you want to...
