  1. Good Evening, Does anyone have any recommended VPNs where they've successfully been able to bypass geo-restrictions? I've tried two different VPNs (Norton VPN and Proton VPN). Norton was paid for, however I still get a message saying that the video is not available in your region. I am particularly looking for something that is potentially free or open source. Thanks in advance. - James
  2. Its a Reference Nvidia 980. I've already reset the BIOS a few time. I have dual monitor set up right now, so maybe I will unplug one and see what happens.
  3. Hello Again, When attempting to enter BIOS when the computer boots, (DEL or F2) the BIOS will come up for about 2 seconds and then the screen will go blank. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

  4. I tired a different case (Cooler Master HAF EVO LAN Box) seems to be working fine. Except having audio problems
  5. Spooky, Thanks for your post. How would a surge affect the case? Especially if there is nothing essential in booting of a computer?
  6. Good Afternoon, I need some assistance! And some thoughts! About 3-4 weeks ago, I was playing a game (Stellaris I think it was), when my PC suddenly shut down. This was rare and had never happened previously. Attempted to reboot the PC, however the computer would not boot, the lights on the motherboard would not come on and I did not hear a click on the PSU. My initial diagnostics revealed that my EVGA PSU (1000W Supernova) had died, upon RMA (that was accepted and I received a new PSU) was deemed to be faulty. During this time I did by a new PSU (Corsair HX1000i) and install it into the case, however that did not boot the PC either. However the PC does now have lights on the motherboard, but would still not boot. After testing with a different motherboard (MSI X99 Carbon Pro) and a new CPU (I7-6850K) the motherboard would start, however I had issues with that motherboard and it was eventually returned. I placed my motherboard and initial CPU (I7-5930K) into my Praxis Test Bench and the system booted up (with a reference Nvidia 980). Although, not with my EVGA 980Ti as it had seemingly died (possible capacitor failure and EVGA would not provide a RMA as it was out of warranty). Elated at the fact that my motherboard and PSU did not die, I placed it back into my originally case (CoolerMaster Storm Trooper) and it would not start, I hear a click on the PSU and I have power on the MB, however it does not boot. I believe I read somewhere that if you hear a click on the PSU, that it is tripping to protect the components from shorting. Any assistance would be appreciated. P.S: Does anyone have nylon or plastic stand offs and screws attached for their cases and motherboards? The Praxis Test Bench does have plastic screws, that is the only thing I can think of. I've read the metal standoff and the plastic screws ground the motherboard, but maybe in this case it is shorting the components?

  7. Thank you! I will take a look those places. Hopefully they are all trustworthy >.>
  8. Greetings Friends, I've been doing some research into Water Cooling PC Parts. I am having a difficult time whom are trusted retailers, I really want to purchase from FrozenCPU. However I heard that there has been some controversies over the past few years. Thanks in advance. - James
