Hello folks, so I am currently trying to get some better cable management for my Siberia 840 base, I have tried setting it up with a powered USB hub, and I were able to get power through to the Base, however I am unable to get the audio through the USB Hub, do you guys have suggestions ?

This sort of screen tearing is everywhere. Scrolling in browsers and trying to watch YouTube videos and what not.

Hello folks,

So i've experienced some heavy screen tearing lately, and now it gotten way too much, i dont know if its just me just noticing it now, how bad it is, but its seriously horrible.

I tried to use some other settings that I read online should help, but it still doesnt.

All of my 3D settings are default, expect for: V-Sync on, triple buffering on, and FXAA.

Specs: i7 5820k, GTX 970, 16GB Ram, Samsung SyncMaster SA350 monitor, CPU is OCed to 4.4Ghz the GPU is stock.

SSD 850 Evo. - OS W10.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the advice InVis, however the ISP doesnt provide you with any router in this case.

Im just wondering, would it work? My friend doesnt understand much on the networking part, and he doesnt want to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars, so im just trying to figure out what is the best economical way, for him to get a good network, that can blow the pants of the average joe.

Hello folks, so I am currently suggesting a friend of mine which router to purchase, however I got a question relating to this, as he is most likely to be using the wireless access on the router, which is also the reason why I've told him choose a better router, than buying a cheapo router and a cheapo access point. However heres my true question.. If he purchases a router that has 802.11ac and lets say in 5 years or so, the router becomes slow on the wireless part, however it is still up to date with the actual cord speed. Adding an access point, which protocols are newer, lets say 802.11ad, would this mean that if you're using the access point solely to access the wireless internet, it would be faster than if you used the router directly?

Why the hell do you need a TV license? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard, glad I live in the US where I can do whatever the fuck I want.

Denmark has it too, we are just some people who choose to not notify the Government that charges us the money. Seriously its a yearly fee of 250 GBP in Denmark and the worst thing they can do, is force sign you up, in which you can easily get your self removed from.

Further more, its not like they ''backtrack'' your use of television, they know they cant do anything, and are happy if you actually pay.

PS: You must pay for this license if you own; A radio, cellphone with internet access, a computer with internet access or a tv.

Monthly fee is 20-25 GBP.

I cannot understand how anyone would spend 150$ or even near that on a controller for an xbox, its not like you are getting a steering wheel or anything, its just a controller.

How do we get notified, and would they include some sort of advice on how to prevent this from happening again ?

Why is these things always on epic sales, when the bank account says no?

The best way is to list it on various used parts websites.

I example Craigslist for your country, ebay, etc

Any sort of server grade hardware degrades heavily in price after purchase, whether it be brand new or not.

Most people who are willing to cash out for such expensive CPUs, are Businesses and they want full warranty and does not want to have any problems, so they buy directly from the store instead of buying used.

Honestly, I've seen CPUs that cost over 3,000$ go for less than 800$ on Ebay, and those are from legit sellers.

Feeling the greatness...

How did you setup your background like that? I assume its dynamic and not static.

If you want good graphics.. Desktop is the way to go, honestly we're talking about a really old machine, its still doing good as game developer are still releasing games for it, but dont expect awesome graphics.

That explains the sudden jump in the Nvidia stocks, couldn't really understand how it suddenly bumped up by 3.80$ a share just today.

Wheres the option for "I can't use one because I use a desktop replacement laptop for school"

Because desktop replacement is a better desktop, not laptop

I like this LTT fans, but 27-30$ for 1 fan.. No thanks.

Imma see if it works, worst that can happen is they void the order.

Anyone?

Hello folks,

So I got a Presonus Audiobox USB, however the problem with this device is, it is very picky when it comes to the USB A to USB B cords, and so far I've been unable to figure out how to sort this out, anyways I have been thinking about getting a USB Hub 3.0, but my question is.. If I get an external powered (Power cord to the wall), would it be able to provide just as much power, as the computer? As the microphone (MXL V67G) requires Phantom power(48v).

I've been looking at stuff like this -> http://www.amazon.co.uk/Inateck-Charging-Samsung-Computers-Smartphone-x/dp/B00GT7LDDG/ref=sr_1_23?ie=UTF8&qid=1444662066&sr=8-23&keywords=usb+hub+3.0&tag=linustechtips-21

Lets say that a country that isn't too legit has this sort of tools, that would cause alot of problems, if one that uses this device, gets a creative idea or such, and all of a suddenly, someone else comes up with this idea as their own, yet stolen through the device. I honestly believe that is not unheard, as countries like North Korea (Just an example) would rather give one of their own citizens this information and get credit, than someone else, when they allready got the info.

I know that sounds kinda tin foil hat, and honestly im not into all this shit, but that was my cents.

I've thought about that processor too, but the few videos i watched the 5820k was doing better in benchmark tests but when it came to gaming the 6700k was pulling ahead. 

Would I really need that feature rich of a mobo for gaming. 

 

All this pc does really is gaming and I'm looking to get something a bit future proof and something that could handle me eventually modding out gta 5. 

 

 

 

 

Yeah, I do notice that more cores is not near as important as strong cores it seems like the last time amd made a great processor was around the time my phenom was built. 

Some of the features you get on this mobo, may not be something you're thinking of right now, but Ultrafast M.2 is surely something that not all motherboards come with, heck even USB 3.1. This is one of the best budget orientated feature rich boards, and overall 6700k vs 5820k, the 5820k wins.

When it comes to just gaming, there isn't much of difference, but when you get into 2-3 way SLI or Crossfire, thats when there is a huge difference on the gaming aspect, also its nice to have a stronger CPU, if you ever decide to do multi tasks, multicore tasks, or even content creation. Its not that much of a difference.

Overall, I'd spend those last 60$ to get this.

I'd go with this -> http://pcpartpicker.com/p/XPdRmG

Yes it costs more, but it is undoubtly a beast like system, and dont be scared by those 3.3Ghz base clock, they're easily overclocked to 4Ghz, even when you lose the silicon lottery.

Most common overclock is 4.4-4.6Ghz

You could also change out the Motherboard, but I really like this one due to its price and features.

MSI X99A SLI Plus, love the board, has USB 3.1, and is really a good overall board with its features and price point.

I managed to get 4.5Ghz stable with 1.310v and I think you're voltage is really fine, and yeah the official safe limit from Intel is 1.300V, but i've heard alot of people going over 1.300V.

Yes it will shorten the life, but i dont know by how much.
