  1. Im planning on getting a usb dac/amp combo such as the Schiit Fulla 2 or Fiio e10k. my current realtek motherboard sound has the good ol realtek HD audio manager software and its done its job well allowing me to customize the audio. Is realtek HD audio manager global (will it affect the sound going through the usb dac/amp?) if not, are there any software solutions? hardware solution? Thanks.
  2. my PC is fine, i just recently have had some stability issues and just general BS. and mainly my friend, who is a heavy browser user, also has some problems, so its mainly for him
  3. ah the clueless people.... my mother belives that in order to have a "fast" PC, you need a powerful CPU, and the reality is that you need an SSD for the system to feel fast. i have an A-10 7850K, which is a relatively weak CPU, but since i have an SSD, my mom likes to use my PC because its "fast"
  4. Hello there you sexy forum im about done fed up with google chrome, its just not what it used to be. I can't think of any specifics right now, but i want a new browser. i dunno if a mainstream one like Firefox will meet my requierments, but i just want to have varied opinions. Things im looking for: -easy on system resources -i dont care about plugin support -thats about it thank you, and have a wonderful day
  5. i do however notice that it does indeed, charge fast, but it doesnt say quick charging. perhaps android is trying to be more simple and relaxed, but as a tech savvy user i like some feedback
  6. perhaps something to do with the new android 6.0 marshmallow since its a new phone to the market i have found nothing on other forums, but the phone is qualcomm quick charge capable, and the ac adapter is certified. i even tried 3 different cables.
  7. i got a new HTC one A9, (say as you wish, i love it) and with it i bought i qualcomm quick charge 3.0 charger. when i use that quick charger, i do not get a notification that says "quick charging" nor in the lock screen does it say "quick charging" rather than the normal "charging", however i am unsure if i am supposed to get a notification that the phone is indeed, quick charging. to calm my nerves i downloaded an app called ampere, that measures the charger's Mah. the stock 1.5a charger does about 300 while the qualcomm charger gets 800-880, so yeah it has more power, but is it actually quick charging? so is it indeed quick charging? or am i supposed to get a quick charge notification? thanks. PS. this is the charger i bought: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015ZJKWFS?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
  8. sennehiser hd 518 http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-518-Headphones-Black/dp/B0042A68R8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1451339040&sr=8-1&keywords=hd+518 i have the bigger brother, the 558, but they are about the same THEY SOUND AMAZING in gaming you can pin point the enemy's locaiton is games like CSGO, and the music experience is also very nice
  9. why dont you just return it? or call saitek for an RMA?
  10. my rule of thumb is incrase core clock till its not stable, then bump up the voltage untill it is stable, and call it a day
  11. no, no nvidia gpu includes an SLI bridge, only the motherboard includes it (if it is SLI compatible)
  12. walmart dont want to pay for no games so that little kids can play with the display unit
  13. i dont have to worry because steam and because pcmustardrice
  14. always get the single most powerful gpu you can afford.
  15. oculus? HTC vive thank you very much
  16. id rather have a big ol' heatsink than even a 240mm rad something like a bequiet dark rock pro 3 or a noctua d15
  17. one that is more equivalent that the msi krait is the asus X99-A, as the deluxe is expensive af
  18. id say that psu is fine, but i do agree, go for an intel CPU
  19. rule out the motherboard right off the bat i dont think its a bottleneck, but simply that the cpu is weak and can't handle those AAA games, i have an AMD A10, and in cpu heavy games like ARMA III i get 30fps, while test rigs with my same GPU (r9 270x) but with an intel cpu get 50+
  20. the Dell one is more stylish, asus is really good, i have an asus panel and love it.. exept ..... for....... GLOSSY BEZELS OHGODNO
  21. budget? i have the Brainwavz Delta, for 20$ they sound amazing, better than a pair of 200$ beats that i had back in the day before actually caring about my audio. bass is punchy, and does not ruin the mids or highs, i recommend any day. http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Earphones-Remote-iPhone-Devices/dp/B00L2459ZO PS: choose a different option, as the one that shows up first is IOS, but there is android version.
  22. do you have the stock cooler? try reapplying thermal paste, and also do you have adequate airflow? derp i realized its at 100% load not 100c temperature
