  1. I'm from Europe, so no wallmart here, but that looks like a great deal! Ok, thanks. I think the airflow should be OK. I have 2 front intake fans, 1 back intake fan and the 2 fans of the giant aircooler will probably also help with cooling it down.
  2. Thank you for the answer! It was not what I was hoping for, but thank you. Would the 9700k work better? And you say that the 9900k would maybe run on stock, what would happen if the VRM's aren't enough? Can the motherboard/cpu be damaged? Or would the cpu just perform worse?
  3. Hello, Back when Coffee lake just launched, my previous pc broke and I needed a new pc asap. Because of that and I didn't have the funds to get a better cpu, I got an i5 8400 with a Z370 Krait gaming motherboard with the idea of upgrading in the future when my funds and availability improves. Now that the ryzen 3000 series is released, I'm expecting a price drop from intel. I was thinking of upgrading to a 9900k. If possible, I would also like to overclock a bit. But i'm not sure if my motherboard is enough. Does anyone know if the VRM's on the motherboard are enough to run a 9900k with an overlock (maybe 4.8 ghz?). I can find very little info about this board on the internet. It seems to have the same VRM setup as the "Z370 GAMING PRO CARBON AC" and "z370 gaming m5". This would be the setup with the cpu ugprade: - MSI z370 krait gaming - Intel i9 9900k - 32gb DDR4 3000mhz cl15 - Cryorig R1 Ultimate CPU cooler - GTX1080 Aorus Will this cpu work ok like this? Maybe even with an overclock? Thanks!
  4. The American one doesn't and when I select my country the item isn't there. They also sell on amazon.com, but they also don't ship to my country (Belgium)
  5. Hello, I've been using the fingerprint reader from my Oneplus 3 now for a while and I really like it. I would like something similar for my Windows 10 Desktop. Can anyone recommend a good fingerprint reader for this? (budget ~€50) I'm only looking for one to login. I'm from Europe, so it has to ship to Europe. I prefer amazon.de. I found these on the USA Microsoft store, but can't find a store that ships to Europe. https://www.microsoftstore.com/store?keywords=bio-key&SiteID=msusa&Locale=en_US&Action=DisplayProductSearchResultsPage&result=&filters&filters=bio-key&sortby=score descending Thnx!

  6. Hi, I just received me "eco cheques" from work (~250€ worth of cheques that I can use to buy energy efficient things like led monitors, led tv's, washing machines etc) And I don't need anything so I was thinking to buy a new pc monitor. My setup now: 1 x 1080p 24 inch LG IPS screen 1 x 1080p 22 inch LG IPS screen 1 x old 4:3 17 inch monitor i5 6600k @ 4,5 ghz + GTX970 (will be changing this one when Vega is available) What I'm looking for: I want to change the old 4:3 monitor with a new 144hz freesync one. (or maybe keep that one as a 4th screen :p) Why not G-sync? To expensive imo and I don't like the closed proprietary stuff. What I want advice on: Should I get a 27 inch 1440p screen or a 24 inch 1080p screen? Or maybe something else? I first want to decide what kind of monitor to get before I choose a model. Pro/con: 1080p: - Playing a game on 3 monitors at once - 3 monitors of about the same size 1440p: - better quality when playing on one monitor (will also be doing that for dota2, minecraft...) - More screen is better? - Can I combine 2 x 1080p and one 1440p for eyefinity (or whatever it's called atm) Kr, Stelio

    €150 headphones

    Hi, I'm looking for a second pair (I already have the Senheiser HD 518) of headphones(one for TV and laptop upstairs and one for PC downstairs) and after some research I found the Philips SHP 9500 and they look perfect for me. Comfort is very important for me. But they seem to be discontinued and the price is very high. I can order them on Amazon.fr for €126.59. Are they any good for this price or should I get something else? What I need: Comfortable headphones that fit my big head. (for example: The kingston HyperX clouds are to small for me) Not wireless Ship to Belgium (some shops are: thomann, amazon.de/.fr) Budget is <€150 but can be flexible if it's worth it I prefer open headphones What is important for me in this order: Comfort Sound Price Looks They will be used for: 40% games 40% Teamspeak/voip 20% Music (Mostly rock with some metal and pop) Best regards!
  8. Would love to win this My favourite is the Keyboard, because it looks like a nice clean keyboard and not any of that "gamer" crap some brands put on it and <3 mx browns.
  9. Moto X play Better battery and faster android updates.
  10. Thnx for the responces! I'll try removing my gpu driver and reinstalling!
  11. Hi, These are my specs: i5 660k @ 45 * 100 (4500MHz) @ 1.26v in bios Asus z170 pro gaming msi GTX 970 Gaming 2 * 8 GB DDR4 2400 MHz crucial memory Crucial BX100 250GB for OS Screen 1 connected to the GTX970 by HDMI Screen 2 connected to the onboard GPU by DVI-D Screen 3 connected to the onboard GPU by HDMI When I got this pc I installed windows 8.1 and updated it to windows 10 and everything works perfectly and I don't get any crashes. The only problem is that sometimes (~10% of the times) I start my computer the computer will start to boot like normal but the only thing that will happen is that the main screen turns gray(see the picture below) and the other 2 screens don't turn on. When this happens I just hold the powerbutton until it shuts down, press it again and then it boots fine. What can cause this? - Is my OC not stable? (I can run the OC.net stresstest for a few hours without problems and I don't get any problems when the pc has booted) - Is my GPU or any other part broken? - Is it a driver problem? Best regards,
  12. Hi, I just tried overclocking my 6600K (last time I overclocked was with a i5 750) Is this a good overclock? Asus z170 Pro Gaming i5 6600K Be Quiet! Dark rock 3 45 * 100 MHz Voltage = 1.3V in bios (first value I tried and looks stable) Temps during 4th loop of the x264 stresstest from: http://www.overclock.net/t/1411077/haswell-overclocking-guide-with-statistics And if I look at this screenshot, the voltage is 1.3, but when I look at CPU-Z it's 1.344V. How can this be?
