Let's think about it: The GTX 970 and 980 Perform almost THE EXACT SAME! And the fact that you will be able to run most games at 4K with high details with 2 970s, which is only $100 more than a 980! And a single 980 will play SOME games at 4k on low-medium settings. Or, look around on amazon or ebay and you'll find an older card for less than a single 970! Or 2! I'm not saying that these cards are bad, and hell, I dont even have a GTX 760! But are 970s and 980s worth it? Tell me what you think.
So I have the "G.Skill Ripjaws-X Memory Memory 16GB (1600MHz, 240-pin, 2x 8GB, CL10) DIMM DDR3 Memory Kit" and I have recently noticed that the current motherboard I have only takes 8GB ram max (I am getting a new motherboard for xmas which will take the ram) and I have had the 16GB ram installed for about 2 years now, I am guessing that at the moment I can only use 8GB of that 16GB installed, could me doing this have damaged the ram or is it still going to be fine? could this damage the ram or
Gotta small laptop problem.
About a week ago, my Lenovo laptop's hard drive started making loud clicking sounds, as the week progressed, the laptop got slower and slower. Wednesday, I got 2 bsods that quickly recovered. Since then, I've been unable to finish updating a game because of a disk write error.
I've tried everything, restarting, hard power offs, even defragged my entire Hard Drive.
Guess what came in the mail today.
Oh yea, the case!
Corsair Graphite Series 780T
Full review by Linus:
Opening up the box, first I see manuals and styrofoam on the front and back side of the case, and the actual case in a black cloth bag.
Holy dang this thing is huge :D Moving from an midtower to a full tower is quite a step :D
Looks super awesome!
While eyeballing the case inside and out I noticed some things that I wanted to mention.
Hard Drive cages
A bit shocked here.

Yea so as the title clearly states it, I've bought some new parts! \o/
Yesterday, on Sunday evening here, I ordered my case, which is the Corsair Graphite Series 780T Black/Red , it should arrive within the week.
And today, I bought my PSU which is the Cooler Master Vanguard V700
Bit of an overkill on the PSU at the moment, as my estimated wattage on the parts I've chosen are under 400W but you never know if I wanna go for couple of more GPUs f.e. ;)
Also I bought some case fans! Got a coup
Hi guys I'm sure you've seen this a lot already but I was looking to get some insight on whether or not I should buy an Intel i7 4790k or AMD FX 8370. Here's what I do, I am a film student as well as an editor for a company, I like to game with my friends, and being a college student we have lots of work so these are my big 3 things I will be doing with my PC. I currently have everything I will need besides my mobo and processor (of course). Many thanks to all for the feedback and help! Hope you

Have been trying to program my new stick I got from my loving wife :wub: for my birthday and have done everything to try and get it to work. I've been to the support team for it and they pass me around :angry: . I've even asked on here in trouble shooting. I've wanted to play full reality in War Thunder but was hindered by the stick I had :( and it was dying on me as well. Two months have gone by with no game play at all. Wife is upset because I've ordered another stick like my last one. Won
I'm lost, I don't know what to do! I've been friends with this girl for a few years and last week we went to the movies together, we were supposed to go with a group of friends but they didn't get their tickets in time so we went alone. For some reason I don't know something changed between us, on Monday it was as usual but as the rumors of us dating intensified I felt this weird tension between us. Then today I find out she likes me, and I am lost. I like her as a friend, she's one of my best f

Hello, and welcome to the forums!
Please make sure to read the CoC, Posting guidelines, Private Policy, Reporting Guidelines, and the F.A.Q. here:
Today i bought some new parts for my new build B)
16Gig kit of Kingston HyperX Fury 1600MHz RAM
Looks hella badass with the red armor B)
Money spent today 134,90€
Total money spent on 21st of November 547,70€
For the changes made to this build plan;
Thanks to the member of the community helping me out,
The GPU has changed from the Asus ROG GTX 780 Poseidon ( which apparently isn't available anywhere near me anymore )
to the Asus GTX 970 Strix! The looks of the Strix are super badass,
The core i7 4770k supports only 1666mhz ram max. What if i want to use a 2400mhz ram? Can i apply xmp profile for it to run at 2400mhz? Do i need to change the voltage of the cpu and the ram when applying xmp profile? Thank you.
Got the backplate finished in Solidworks (apart from the name). Its ATX (7 PCIe ports) with one 120mm fan, and the hole for the power cable left untouched ;)

First off, thanks for taking a look at this, means a lot. :)
Recently, i have acquired Apple's Mac Pro Gen5 case, which i have wanted for ages. My plan is to custom fabricate a new back I/O plate and the motherboard tray, to make it fit an (m)ATX board, and its expansion. I wish to make a mod worthy good enough that i can ask for sponsorship from companies to be able to fit it with hardware as good as the case itself is. ^_^
Alright guys, as promised, I have finally compiled my personal experiences with this game and have made a post about how to get it to run like this.
As everyone has probably realised, well, at least those who have attempted to run Watch_Dogs on their monster rigs, it is a horrible mess on PC to say the least.
However - along with Tony MBR's updated Maldo textures, some in-game tweaks, and, best of all - TheWorse 1.0, this game has been running like a dream for me.
All I want to accomplish wit
