Did anyone here get Arx Control (Android) to work? I am stuck at the G keycap but it seems that some people were able to use it looking at the reviews (but it could be due to different configs ). Currently using a G710+ and G500S setup and W8 64bit.

I had the same issue for several games such as CS:GO, BF4 (shut down earlier than CS:GO) even though my power supply wan't warm (TX650v2). I would get an extra case fan and either blow into as intake for psu or out for exhaust for psu of the fan grill to make sure that the power supply is not the issue.

For those who want Guest Additions installed, I found a fix: If you get The VirtualBox Guest Additions cannot be installed on this version of Windows.http://www.fixedbyvonnie.com/2014/10/install-windows-10-in-virtualbox/ Update: Getting Windows Cannot Initilize the device driver for this hardware (error 37) Used the VBoxVideo drivers but haven't tried installing the Windows 8 graphic drivers (VBoxVideoW8 I think) as it keeps erroring out saying that the driver doesn't support this OS and the other driver is vista (VBoxVideoWV) and it didn't work (error 37)

Not sure where you will buy from but I would recommend would be the XFX P1-550S-XXB9 (made by Seasonic) or the XFX TS 550W (based off of Seasonic SSP-550RT (OEM version of G series)). The XFX Core 550W scored a pretty good score in JonnyGuru's review (great reviewer for power supplies):http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story3&reid=225

If you are using Windows 8 OEM, you are able to change your motherboard: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-windows_install/how-many-time-can-you-change-the-motherboard-on-a/edff52ca-908e-4a1e-9b4a-45c34b336766 Where are you buying your power supply from and what is your budget?

Welcome to the forum @CaptainKoda!

You are able to redeem it on October 23:

Yea they gave away Civ 5 and Mafia 2 last year but it was a lot easier to redeem as they just send you a steam code unlike this year.

Just received the email today: In short, vote before October 20, 2014 and during October 23-27 you are able to redeem the game. You would have to register through Playfire to get your steam code unfortunately. Its available to only 18+ users as the game is 18+ (so make sure you have the right birthday to qualify .

Have you tried temporarily disabling your anti-virus software(s) and try to boot it with the network adapter disabled?

I would believe that it would be a update either on the whole VirtualBox (ie a version update) or a Guest Additions ISO that you are able to download to update it.

Just tried out Windows 10 Dev Preview 64bit with Virtualbox. But I'll think i'll wait until Oracle updates its Guest Additions to have a better experience with Windows 10.

If you do not plan on crossfire, a 550W power supply will be more than enough to power this system as an i7 3960X EE CPU overclocked to 4.7Ghz running 3DMark11 took around 400W on load: http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/6210/sapphire-radeon-r9-280-dual-x-3gb-oc-video-card-review/index14.html

The XFX power supplies are OEMed by Seasonic so they are great. Between those two power supplies I would go for the XFX power supply over the builder series by Corsair since its cheaper and I do not think that the OEM for the builder's series is not as good as the XFX ones. What are the specs of the PC that you are powering? Sources: http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/psu_manufacturers

Just realized it was Enhanced Steam plugin (a plugin that gives you info such as the lowest price of all time for a specific game and convenient access to tf2 trading links such as backpack.tf) that made this. That is a very early account that you have there.

I do not know but you can check the exact date when you will reach 11 by going to the years of service badge and clicking on it.

So my account just reached three years today and steam changed the background and the logo to be confetti and gifts. Think this is a new feature which is pretty cool imo. But unfortunately there's no gifts that come along with it. UPDATE: Just realized it was Enhanced Steam's plugin that made this and its not related to steam. Wish they had this feature.

Welcome @Berkut99! Great that you are enjoying the forum. I remember in the past the hard drives were only around 30mbs or so and my PC froze whenever I put a CD in the optical drive . In my signature are some links you may find helpful.

On the top of my mind, Gigabyte 7950 cards are voltage locked. I have been reading some discussion forums and I am seeing that some of the cards are voltage locked at a hardware level. Do you know the exact model number on your card (its on the box) and the clock speeds and voltages that it comes stock with? Have you tried overclocking on the card (if yes how much of a gain did you get with what kinds of voltages and clocks?)?

If you have a dual bios switch on your gpu (near the crossfire fingers), if you mess up you are able to switch to the other bios and use your card but it may be a different profile than the first one so I would back it up. I would not flash if you only have one bios. In order to restore your gpu bios on the bios you messed up, boot with the working bios, switch the bios switch to the broken one and flash. What card do you have and what power connectors does it use? Flashing the bios i believe allows higher max voltages and clock speeds but I would only do it if you have a good chip and want to go past the max stock overclocks.

Welcome @Fir35torm! You could be also be hooked to Linus' videos due to his jokes sometimes. There is a Photo/Video section on the forum that may suit you. Hope you will enjoy the forum. Below in my signature are some links you may find useful (such as the Code of Conduct (aka. rules of the forum)).

If you visit your inbox, it should have a check mark next to LinusTechtips to say that the channel is verified and that is the real Linus not the one with without a checkbox and links (dont think he would give you bit.ly links).

Welcome! Hope you will enjoy your stay here. Welcome! Its unfortunate to see that your community shut down. Hope you will have a good time here.

If you don't have Asus' software you can use SpeedFan:http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php Sometimes the BIOS can have options to change RPM speeds.

Welcome @I_STOLE_YOUR_WIFI (interesting username )! Hope you are able to enjoy the forum. If you did not care about him, why did you welcome him?
