    Tech related how??? All it is a model of Santa imposed onto Google Earth.

    You need a wifi card to use wifi, that motherboard doesn't have onboard wifi support.

    Not on lga 1151, plus that board probabbly has ecc support, and other "server" features like vt-x, and an onboard serial port, still somewhat useful in some scenarios, and consumer boards won't have it anymore.

    PSUs degrade over time just like anything, cars will get worse gas mileage as they age if you don't take care of them properly. 80+ has nothing to do with quality at all, all it means is that it is this efficient. There are some pretty crap 80+ gold psus old there, even that means nothing toward quality. Example. https://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=N82E16817170033

    With an apu probabbly ddr4 3000 will probabbly give you the best performance, igpus like faster ram.

    The 9590 is comparable to an i5 6600k at best. But you also need at least a 240mm aio to cool it,and a really good 990fx board at least which all adds up. Go for an i5 6500 for gaming if you don't want to spend much, overclocking doesn't provide much gains at all for gaming, focus on a better gpu.

    Those temps aren't bad at all. Go for a 240mm rad, lower temps, and more overclocking headroom, any aircooler is more comparable to a 120/140mm rad.

    If you are directing this question to Linus himself, he doesn't respond on the forums much, and you will have to use @LinusTech to summon him. The orange ratcheting screwdriver if that is your question made by Snap-On. Personally I use the one from an ifixit kit.

    For that price you can get an i3 or an 8350 with a wraith cooler and motherboard at microcenter, pretty terrible deal.

    500Gb is not going to hold too many games at all you might want to step up to a 1Tb. Depending on what "work" you do and with "no budget", you can get external gpus for some laptops like some razor models, and some alienware ones so you can have a gtx 1080 in the enclosure at home, and just detach the laptop and go. Even though mitx is small it is still a bit of a pain to move around.

    What is your budget for the cpu/motherboard?
  12. SLAYR
    4960x lga 2011 boards are expensize though, I would suggest going for a lga 1150 board, and something like a i5 4460, or 4690, if you are going for the "k" veraio s, or an i7 ddr4 is cheap worth it just to go to skylake.

    Spend like $20 more on the pro edition and you can stop them from updating at all. Windows 8.1 to7 is an upgrade,windows 10 is a lot better then 8.1 worth a try before going to 7. You may still be even to upgrade to 10 for free still with the loophole they had.

    Errors that require a complete reinstall are quite rare, you get more errors and BSODs from bad drivers, or hardware problems.

    Do you only have $30USD to upgrade your pc? Either upgrade still leaves you with a computer barely meeting minimum requirements, and don't expect anything better then 30fps 720p. Ram is the better choice, 8gb is standard now of days. Modern OSes even like regular distos of Linux would have a hard time on 2gb of ram, playing a game on it would be constant stuttering. The 710 is a piece of garbage for gaming, it is only designed to just run monitors and that is it, if you have a limited budget for a gpu under $100USD look for a used gpu, all the cheap gpus are just trash.

    Apply more voltage then.

    X99 motherboards are 2011-3 not 2011. the physical socket is different, you will need a lga 2011 without the -3 board to use the e5 2670, x79 is lga 2011.

    If you only saw a 10C drop did you use good thermal paste on it? People have seen a lot higher drops then just that, up to 20C or so.
  20. SLAYR
    This is due to your BCLK being too high, and the pcie bus which also relies on the BCLK frequency is refusing too work at that high of a frequency which causes the gpu to not work. Really nothing you can do about it.

    Making A Retro Pc

    SLAYR replied to DK_BLEU's topic in Windows

    If you have the install disk, or the iso on a flashdrive just plug it into the computer , boot from it, and follow the instructions. If the computer is too new it probabbly won't work since the drivers won't work. Best chance to get it to work may be a virtual machine. Have you tried compatibility mode, or a VM of windows 98?

    Don't try this with any other type of acid, if you try this with nitric or sulfuric acid you won't have any copper left.

    The 750ti is outdated now, the rx 460 is the same price and performs better.
  24. SLAYR
    If you want to overclock get a Z170 board.

    To call this "news" is ridiculous. WCCFtech is the source they most liekyl gottheinfo from, which just references "Chinese forums" as the actual original source. This was posted a while ago.
