  1. It should be fine but keep in mind that you could upgrade to the 6600k for 50-80$
  2. Id plug the laptop into a tv or monitor with a hdmi, vga, etc cable or something and leave it for a while..like 1 hour. See if the screen pops up (that has actually worked for me in the past). You could also hit the windows key+p and see if you can change around which display it will display to. Is there a recovery button? Try a system restore if possible. If not, maybe the screen is dead? Although if the laptop isnt displaying to an external display who knows.. edit- lastly, if the screen is dead I have replaced a screen on an old laptop one time and the screen was fairly cheap. I believe it was about 70$..pretty reasonable
  3. Why is the g502 being referred to as infamous? I have the g502 and it's a great mouse. I also use a fingertip grip, but my hands are bigger than yours. I play mostly MOBA and 4X these days and for those purposes it's fantastic. However, I think the mouse is lacking in the FPS environment. I have slight difficulty aiming when I do boot up CS:GO and it feels slightly awkward. It's certainly not bad, but I really do notice the mouse doesn't perform as well for FPS. Anyone else find that?
  4. I think I will contact Noctua, just to see what they say. I'll post my findings in this treads. I rarely shut down, but I can be extremely oblivious and if they never started I probably wouldn't know for months.
  5. They are the regular version (classic Noctua colours). Ya, they may catch and start going eventually. I watched them for about 2 minutes and they didn't start going. I'll do an extended test run and see how they (or if they do) catch and start. I just wouldn't want a bunch of negative pressure in my case and dust to get sucked in and dirty up my pristine build.
  6. I'm wondering if anyone has an ideal solution for my predicament. I've purchased 3 Noctua A14-ULN fans as case fans for my system. I have 2 in the front of my case for intake and 1 at the rear of the case pushing air out. My problem: The two fans at the front will not start spinning (they just twitch) unless I set the fans to 85% RPM on the motherboard. I've attached the Low Noise Adapters which brings the RPMs down to about 620, but that is still way too high. My case is extremely cool and with the RPMs that high I can faintly hear some noise (which I do not want to accept). I'm wondering if there is some way to burst enough power to the fans to get them spinning, but then reduce the power significantly so the RPMs drop to around 300. I have looked and searched on my motherboard but I have not been able to find anything that will allow me to do this. I understand there may be a software solution; could someone recommend one? Preferably one that is not annoying, automated, and easy to set up? Regarding the fan at the rear of the case, I have that fan set quite low - to approximately 40% RPMs. That fan also does not spin at startup but gets going 20-30 seconds after bootup. I figure the air coming off my cpu cooler is helping to get that fan started. Any tips/suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thank you
  7. I've tried to upgrade to Windows 10 like 5 times. I keep getting a Page_Fault_In_Non_Paged_Area error or something. I've troubleshooted to the best of my abilities, checking disks, ram, disabling virus software, etc etc etc and still same thing. So, I'm sticking with Win 7.
