my thoughts on this? pretty cool as an idea and the price makes it an actual consideration. though I don't have much to do with one I know what I would. movie night every night

600 watt PSU and I'll also check the cables. too bad though my main monitor is with hdmi and the 960 only has one port

I haven't overclocked it other than set the fan speed higher (auto wasn't cutting it for the summer) and that's it. it did hit about 80 C once but that's all

So I bought my rig about half a year ago and now whenever I'm launching games etc. the screen gets random pixels that appear of the screen and then the whole thing freezes on both my monitors and I can't do anything. I've recently swapped out RAM after it had some issue but now the screen is going crazy so could my video card be going bad? Is it perhaps thermal damage or something else? What can I do? specs: amd fx-6350, nvidia geforce gtx 960, 16 GB dual channel ddr3, asus m5 A97 R2.0 MoBo, samsung 850 EVO ssd, seagate barracuda 1 TB HDD,

yep on windows 10. I got new RAM and working fine but I have so far had 3 computer lock ups. the RAM was the first issue but win 10 is the second issue. thanks for letting me know about this too.

I ran memtest86 and it gave me errors. I will now need a new set of memory but also would like to ask you if you know what can cause errors in the memory? I know heat and doubt it was that I keep the setup pretty cool but the rest? memtest was a tremendous help and I thank you for suggesting it. Linustecthips.com was the only place I thought I could get help at and it was. I'm pretty saddened too see this happen though my rig is only about half a year old and needing new memory already is a fair bit disappointing. but still thank you for telling me about memtest I have never heard of it before this.

not ram I checked. it uses about 30% and still crashes

I've now had my computer for almost half a year and recently it's had some weird behavior. mainly the screens freezing and nothing responding to windows crashing etc. I don't know what the problem is and it's really hard to cope with random computer crashes very often. I can't even just use it for simple browsing or gaming because when I try to move the browser to my second screen *crash* try to launch a game *crash*. I don't have malware I'm sure I've run many checks now and nothing pops up, I know it's not heating the computer crashes with just 30 C on the hottest parts (usually gpu) and all I've done has been no use. anyone willing to tell me what it could be?

well I may get a 10x series gpu but not when they come out. wait some time and maybe there's gonna be a sale

thanks this is something I think I will do. I'll either get that 980 or 970 or see with 2 screens for some time before I make more choises

well if I do I'm gonna have to get a 900 series gpu then. I have an AMD fx-6350 processor so I fear the bottlenecks

So I fairly recently bought a new computer and so far am happy with it. the processor graphics card ram etc. is fine for now but the graphics card is what I think I could still upgrade. Currently I have an ASUS strix geforce gtx 960 4Gb ddr5 card and I'm pretty happy with it, but I have some things I'm not sure of yet such as a second and third screen and if I do that the 960 will be pretty used up to all those graphics calculations. I do know I can overclock it but the noise it would make and the heat issues that could come. So my question is: should I upgrade soon/now? If I do upgrade I think I would go for radeon graphics because I know I can get the power I need with one R9 380-390X but then theres the cooling part of the upgrade: should I then get watercooling or just stick to the stock cooling?
