  1. Keep in mind the $1 minimum Ziftr advertises for its store when it opens up has a limit. When the market price of coins is less than $1 you will only be able to pay 5% of the purchase price with coins, the rest will be regular money. So if the store opens and the going price of ziftrcoins is still less than $1 and you want to buy something for $100 in the ziftr store you will only be able to use 5 ziftr coins to get a $5 discount and will still pay $95 for the item. If the market value goes above $1 (which may or may not happen) then you can buy items with 100% coins. The way I see it, the $1 minimum value sounds good but in practice may not actually work out in the open market.
  2. I had this same problem. You have to move that file into the directory where you miner is located. Search for it on your system and perhaps download the latest Cuda sdk online if you can't find the file (that's what I did). Once that dll file is in with the miner it should hopefully fix that problem.

  4. Slightly off topic, but I would recommend removing your payment details from that account. Origin has had security issues lately and some users have found unauthorized charges on their account.
  5. I had an i7 920 running at about what you have and upgraded to an i5 4670k a while back. I don't remember seeing a drastic change in game performance, but I wanted to upgrade because I was seeing a bottleneck with my GTX 670 in a few games. Once I upgraded I was able to use everything my gpu had. It's probably worth the upgrade if you plan to stream and play modern games going forward.
  6. Sounds like the DT770 pro are a good idea. I am only using onboard audio on my maximus VI hero board as of right now so I think I will go for the 80 ohm pair.
  7. I could go either way, though I would imagine a little extra bass would be beneficial in some games.
  8. My current gaming headset is breaking and I figured now is the time of year to look for legit headphones. Unfortunately I don't have any knowledge of quality headphones. Any suggestions for closed, over ear pairs around $150-$200? I will use them for gaming and regular media consumption, nothing professional.
  9. Yea he tried known good ram in all slots on mobo with no luck, so it's not the ram.
  10. He just told me he doesn't have access to another computer to test with.
  11. Do you mean put his gpu into my system? If so that isn't exactly practical because we live a few hours away. I can see if he has an older system around to put his gpu in for testing, but I have a feeling he just has old family prebuilt stuff like hp and dell which may not have slots or power for it. Edit: Would the gpu be the problem even when we tried no gpu installed with video coming from the mobo and the problem persisted?
  12. He actually did this the first time the problem appeared because he thought the system was overheating. He says he was careful cleaning the chip and reseated it properly and applied thermal paste correctly. I don't have the system so I don't know how he did it but I have pointed him in the right direction with video instructions on how to do this in the past.
  13. He just took out the gpu, plugged the monitor cable to the mobo directly and same problem.
  14. Unfortunately he doesn't have a set of speakers with a subwoofer. He tried regular stereo speakers plugged in using an audio jack but heard no noises from them.
  15. No speakers or headphones currently attached.
