  1. So I've got a multi monitor setup, 2 x 21" Asus IPS panels, and a Samsung 8 series. Randomly in the middle of use or just idling, all 3 of them will randomly say no source. I haven't been able to force the issue to arise with a short burn test courtesy of FurMark. Have any of you encountered this issue in the past?

  2. Dude... Youve been over this a thousand times... Please just calm down. You're just paranoid.
  3. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817994147&cm_re=hot_swap_bay-_-17-994-147-_-Product The guys at Icy dock did you one better. They fit 6!
  4. Can you really? It seems plausible, just never seen it or even thought about it that way. Hell mine is just duct taped to my face!
  5. In the US there is only a 10$ difference between the 6700k and the 7700k. in most cases I would say upgrading is foolish, but if you're already spending that much, you might as well be on the bleeding edge! I don't know where you are shopping, but there are GTX1070's available in the US for wayyyy closer to $400. Also you need to add in what kind of gigabyte Z170. Also I would look into a cheaper air cooler. Not sure what they go for where you are, but they go for $35 here.
  6. The lack of proof that they do exist is the proof that they in fact do not exist.
  7. This is the basically the predecessor to painfully tacky RGB lighting
  8. Sorry I may have been wrong about specifics. I checked and it seems to cap out at 1 year. I don't even have an Amex.
  9. Nevermind, I stand corrected. Didn't see his build in his signature.
  10. I'm saying that backing up to a D or an E drive isn't as easy when you don't actually have a secondary internal storage device. Don't get me wrong, I've got a 1tb and 500gb HDD to backup from my 120 gb and 500gb SSD's but that doesn't seem to be the case in OP's situation.
  11. >implying that the OP has more than one storage device already in his computer
  12. All he meant is that the MFG warranty covers defective parts and workmanship. Warranty not to be confused with a protection plan or insurance.
  13. Apple care can be a little trickier. With my experience with the "geniuses", they're god awful human beings with NO idea what the hell makes a device work. They told my wife that her iPhone 5 had a fan in it, and that it was broken, and that's why it was overheating. When she called them on their bullshit, they insisted that there was a fan in the device. Aside from the terrible people at the apple store, they also have a deductible that makes it a pricey exchange even after paying a hefty premium. Most repairs can be done on a mac pro with an ifixit kit and the replacement part you need. Motherboards don't fail too often, so I would opt for not getting it. The only issue is if you think you are careless enough to break a $1000+ device.
