  1. Hi guys, I recently upgraded my dad's PC from an i3 530 to an i7 860 and from a gt 730 to a EVGA gtx 570HD. Now I was trying to boot the system for the first time after the upgrade, everything seemed to work in the case (all fans blowing also from GPU an CPU, etc.), but my moniter told me that it wasn't receiving any signals from the GPU. I've tested this card in another system with the same psu and worked just fine, do you guys have any suggestions on what to do?
  2. Hi guys, I'm thinking about buying an SSD. This is what I'm thinking of buying at the moment, please give me some feedback and tell me the things to look out for! Thanks!
  3. Hi, Stupid question: Are FCLGA1156 CPU's and LGA1156 CPU's compatible in the same MOBO? Reason why: I want to upgrade my dads PC by replacing the i3 530 (FCLGA1156) with an i7 860 (LGA1156). The mobo that I'm using is P7H55-M from ASUS and claims to be compatible with i7 's. I know it's a stupid question and I can't think of any reason why it shouldn't work, but either way I want to be sure.
  4. I'm building a PC for a friend and my task is to get as much power in his budget of 1100 euros + decent monitor. But I'll take a look.
  5. The 7600K is cheaper then a 7600 + a decent B250 motherboard cost 95 euros, the same price I pay for a Z270 motherboard.
  6. I use amazon (DE) but I really can't go above 40 euros.
  7. Is the Thermaltake Smart RGB PC-voeding, zwart 500W something better?
  8. i5 8400 costs 265 and a mobo would cost about 130. I actually intended to go for an i5 8400 but well... I'm on a budget
  9. For some reason is in Holland the 7600K only 190 euros while the 1600 is 250 euros. So that ain't happening. But still thank you!
  10. Hi, I'm building a pc for a friend of mine. I'm planning on using the following parts: - intel core i5 7600K - MSi Z270A-Pro - Asus DUAL Gtx 1070 - 16 gb ddr4 - Corsair VS450 Now my question is, can the corsair vs450 run this system, because technically it could be I'm not usre so pleas leave your opions on this.
  11. I have a windows 10 PC, and it is able to boot to the desktop but then it's frozen, you can move the mouse but you can't open programs or use Cortana. I think it's a button on the keyboard. Pls help. We're currently trying rebooting.
  12. It could be that your motherbord has died. If you can give me the specs and age of the system I can give you more advice.
  13. Noctua if you want silence, but if your colour theme ain't brown you need to use Bequiet.
  14. But by uninstalling you'll effectively delete all of the files on the drive so... That would mean I'd have to do some serious storage cleaning on that PC.
  15. Okay thank you, I'll try to use my own rig and an external drive.
  16. That won't work because the two HDD's are both almost completely full (2x 500gb) and I am planning on buying a 40 to 120 gb ssd only for budget reasons.
  17. I don't think there would be much difference, only thing I think is that the bottom one is more durable because there's simply more metal connecting the pieces together.
  18. So I want to upgrade my dad's pc by adding an SSD boot drive; He's currently using a harddrive to boot into windows and that makes his PC even slower then it already is (i3 530; 8GB gt 730 2gb). So I want to add an SSD to boot from, my plan is to install the SSD in the systeem, boot from a windows install USB drive and install windows on the SSD and boot from it, but my question is: Is this even possible? -I assume yes- and How can I delete the old windows 10 on the HDD without damaging files? -I hope the windows installer can do this for me but I am not sure- Pls help.
  19. EA is gonna nerf the sh*t out of game breaking things, just like they did with the 2015 version + a try hard like me who knows SWBF mechanics and core gameplay won't have a lot of problems with guys with better loot who are noobs.
