  1. It made an Improvement to like 7.95GB Ram just by Disabling the IGPU Completely but the bios is still not picking up the second Stick cause it still thinks theres 4 slots and its Running Single Channel but i cant find anywhere in the Bios to Change it
  2. It is up to Date as i updated it when i got it 5 Days ago
  3. perhaps that could be the Problem but she has a Rx 470 Asus Strix GPU so the APU aint even Being used i did plan to do her a Fresh Windows install when i got her a 128GB SSD
  4. So I have never Come across this before, So my Sisters PC's Motherboard was Slowly on its way out so i Replaced it with a MSI A68HM-E33 V2 motherboard and Obviously Swapped all the Hardware into it and it booted fine and with no trouble on the New Motherboard compared to the Old One, but then i realised something Ominous that she had only 6GB Of the 16gb Ram Available and it was in single Channel Only when there are 2 Ram Sticks both 8GB Each they are Both G.Skill Sniper Sticks at 1866Mhz. and CPU is a A10 7700k no OC. so i was baffled, Hence i went Investigating, so the First thing i did was Check the Control Panel and it Came up with this: Confused i investigated further to the Bios and the Bios only Read 8gb of Ram which confused me Further so i booted up CPU-z and Found that its saying there are 4 Ram Slots and that 2 and 4 are being Used which has confused me even more as this Motherboard like the last had only 2 Ram Slots \ so i Tested the Ram Slots Separate with only 1 in at a time and Found on both sticks to Find the Ram in both Slots Working Fine so the Ram And the Motherboard Ram Slots are Working Fine, so then i Tried the Ram Sticks in my i5 3570k system and they Worked fine with about 15gb Usable also Running Windows 10 like this PC So im Starting to think that there Could be Some Conflicting Drivers with the old and New Motherboard not saying it is but i think that this is the Problem and suggestions on what it could be cause after Extensive testing all hardware is working fine
  5. The Ram Is a good Set and See no Reason to Change it The CPU Cooler Should be More than good Enough for a Decent overclock and High Work Loads And the PSU 650w is more than Enough However if you ever wanted to SLI and 1080TI I Would Recommend a 850w to Be on the Safe Side overall a Kickass Gaming PC go Right ahead m8
  6. Can you Change the Colour of the Font to White or Something Cause tis Practically invisible
  7. I'm Pretty Sure Those Games are Locked at 60fps but makes sure V-Sync is off
  8. What other Components do you have in your PC and Have you Checked Drivers
  9. Put a SSD In there and Upgrade to a 4790k or 6700k Mabey with a Z170 Mobo
  10. Well Others May have Better Options and Answers but here is what I know and Can foresee: Firstly Answering your Questions: 1.) I'm Pretty Sure it Does turbo up as on intel's Website it has a Max Turbo Frequency of 4.00Ghz Which it should do on its own with Intel Turbo Boost Technology While under load via Rendering Or Gaming so it Should go to 4ghz With its Turbo Boost Technology 2.) If Intel Says it Can Only go up to 2400Mhz then I'm Pretty Sure that's all it can do in terms of Speed Overclocked or not 3.) A GTX 1060 For 1080p Projects will be more than Enough but for 4k overall a 1070 Wouldn't go to Miss as Recording 4k at Good FPS is a hard thing to do for a 1060 as a 1060 is a 1080p / 1440p Realistically. 4.) a 620w PSU will do Fine as I would Guess that the Pc Plan you have stated will take around the 400w Mark but I would go with a EVGA PSU as I have known them to be more Efficient and Quieter but if you wanted to go 520 you could But Expandability will be Limited. 5.) I would go with the Enthoo Evolv as its Nicer and the Fans inside can still do a Really good Job at Keeping a Good amount of Airflow and In terms of air Flow With a Decent CPU Cooler temps Wont get as high as you fear but in the Enthoo Evolv you can add another intake at the Front if your that Sceptical about it as even with a Stock Cooler the Case Fans Could do more than Enough to Keep the CPU Well within safe Limits the only thing is it will way More Audible So here is a List I Made For you which Should Work Out Fine for Expandability, AirFlow and Easy to Work With, The Extra Case fan is incase you want that 3rd Intake fan at the Front https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pLBhpb
  11. I'm Not a Professional Person I just go with the Flow (Please don't hate me for being like that)
