Hey guys, looking to get a good graphics card for vr but want to see what the cheapest option is. I've looked at the gtx 1060 6gb and the gtx 1070 but am wondering what the amd equivalent of those cards are and do they match up to there performance?

So, here's the thing. I've recently decided to build my first very own gaming pc, I've never built a pc before, in fact I've never owned an pc before as I've been using Macs, but Macs are getting crap and expensive so I decided to build my own PC. I've always watched a lot of build guides from you guys so I do have some basic knowledge in PC building. I've got a few questions to ask as I wanted to build your ultimate rgb build with a few changes. If I do not need a SLI GTX1070, and I would use just a single GTX 1080Ti, want cables do I need to take away from the build? It's fine for me to change the processor to a i7-7700K right? Would the above changes make the PC good on cooling and overclocking with long time uses and about how many years can this PC last for? Lastly I really want to know what monitor would be good for it? Would a Dell S2716DG work with it? Are there any extra cables I need to purchase and add in anywhere in the build? Hope you guys have a nice day and a great 2018

Hi all, Full System Spec Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit Crosshair VI Hero Mobo Ryzen 1700 (OC to 3.8) 16gb Corsair Vengence LPX Ram (3200) Corsair H100i cooler Strix GTX 1080 EVGA 550 watt PSU BIOS version 1501 (most up to date) Ive just come across a bit of an issue with my USB webcam (Logitech C920) when its plugged in to the rear usb on my Crosshair VI hero it will connect and disconnect constantly. No matter which port or if its USB 3 or USB 2. However, if i plug it in to one of the front panel USB 3 ports i get a nice stable connection with no issues. All my other USB stuff in the back works perfectly (mouse, keyboard, wifi dongle) Anybody know whats happening and how to solve it? Thanks in advance

Here is situation I'm in trying to get this darn computer to boot into Windows. Each time I start up this 2013 ASUS VivoBook now I get a "reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key" message. Everything was fine up until a few days ago. The BIOS only has an option for boot priority as Windows Boot Manager followed by string of numbers. I had been finding guides and tutorials and some tell me that the issue is a partition issue or EUFI issue? When I go to see a roster of disks and volumes, cmd prompt on my Windows 8 install image can see it, but I somehow can't fix it or is "hidden". The refresh option on the installation tools starts but eventually says there was a problem. Restore starts, and can view the last time my system was online but said I had to repair the disk. I repair the disk and it completes the progress bar, but I try to proceed with restore and a dialog pops up saying there still needs to repair the disk. I can't continue. Tried repairing through cmd prompt and got to stage 4 of chkdsk when it I guess froze. There appeared to be a huge number however, so I could just wait overnight... The chkdsk process did however say there were a small number of bad sectors. There are semi-important files I'd like to get off incase my HDD is failing. How could I try to get into Windows again to safely get the files off?

Hey guys, so today I made a major overhaul to my PC. I installed the rog strix b350 motherboard to use with my new ryzen 7 1700. I am using the amd r9 390 video card that I had beforehand so I know my video card works fine. When I boot up my computer all the lights and fans start working, so I'm assuming the power is connected. I plugged my monitor into the gpu with a dvi cable but nothing showed up on the monitor. I tried plugging directly into the motherboard, but nothing happend(I later found out the ryzen has no igpu). I have a Corsair 750w psu that also works. I tried all of the pci slots but nothing happens. I've been stumped all day and really looking for some help, thank you. PS: I'm typing on my phone, sorry about the wall of text.

Hey guys, just wondering if there is such thing as a type C cable, to a charge/sync cable. ( Galaxy S5 stock charger , micro USB with the added part ) I want to use it to connect an external 2.5 inch enclosure to my new laptop ( has one Type C port ) and would like to keep the other regular USB ports open . OR is there a 2.5 inch External Hard drive enclosure, that comes with a Type C connector ? I've been looking for several hours, and can't seem to find any!

Hi LTT Community! I'm searching for software, plugins, websites and extensions that can enhance my web and work experience. The things i'm doing alot which i prefer to see tools for: - Mailing - Managing lots of social media accounts - Monitoring social media feeds - Keeping up to date about gaming development news - Improving social media engagement - Facebook Messenger and Twitter DM ( for business contacting ) Also i'm very interested in: - Paid tools for the things above ( i prefer to see free and paid suggestions ) - Team software - CRM software - Building a unique website where i can simply showcase my services without coding needed. Important things to know: My focus qua Social Media is at Twitter, i'm also interested in Facebook & Instagram tools, but i mainly use Twitter for my company. I mentioned above that paid suggestions are welcome, but i have a budget, so not enterprise solutions that are super expensive please, hopefully the best ones are free. Thanks for reading this, and i really hope some people here would have some suggestions. - MC

I'll be moving in with a friend soon and we will be sharing a room. This brings up some space issues since she only has 1 desk and currently uses a laptop. I remembered the video Linus did about the 2 gaming rigs 1 CPU. I'm on sort of a budget but I can still spend some money on it. Is there any way I can build this on an amd based system and if so what parts should I go for? We don't really do hardcore gaming mostl league of legends and some emulations of older games. Thanks for any help in advanced.

Hello yesterday i took the new years cleaning on my pc, taking out the GPUs and CPU cooler and removing dust and such. I then, reinstalled everything and it seemed to work fine except i actually got higher temps on my CPU i mean like 20 degrees hotter, so i went for another reseat of the CPU cooler thinking i may have gotten air bubbles or something, but after i got slightly better items but still 10 degrees worse than the original temp with all that fucking dust in the radiator. I wish i took a photo of the amount of dust inside the fins that radiator man Some may be useful notes The CPU is crudely OCed to 4,4GHz The CPU used to idle at 55-65 degrees (depending on room temps) And it used to go to max 75-85 during cinebench Now it idles at 65-75 degrees and hits 90 every time i try to run cinebench and thus starts throttling D: So if anyone know how to fix this or have any advice on what to do i would greatly appreciate any help

Hello chums of the internet, About a year ago I started my YouTube channel, and after much time trying to organise it I decided to leave it on hold for my GCSE's (High school diploma equivalent in America) but, along side this, I needed a new rig to firstly game and secondly to edit the content. Any suggestions for CPU and GPU. Advisable budget of £400-£500 or $600-$750 for the two of them. Cheers, friends. And I hope you have a very nice day! ~ TheBanterlope ~ Also, should I go for the Enthoo Pro (white) or the Phantom 530 (red) - they look equally sexy, IMO, but which has a better build quality and cable management??

Well Samsung and Apple are at it again, this latest fiasco is over the newly released Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge. Apple is stating that 3 of its patents have been violated and it is looking to stop the future sale of Samsung’s newest phones in the North American market. The first violation has to do with the antenna band placement location on the phones, Apple made the patent claim when they released the iPhone 4s, which the new Galaxy phones share the glass back design with. Also Apple is claiming that Samsung purposely copied their design language with the new phones, stating that the button layout and design look was stolen from the iPhone 6. This isn't the first time Samsung has been in legal troubles with Apple, though this is the most aggressive patent lawsuit Samsung has faced by Apple. Apple won the last series of suits against Samsung, this time it looks like that will happen again as Samsung honestly doesn't have much of a leg to stand on. Around this time last year Apple filed suit against Razer for the design language of their Blade 2014 laptop, the case was settled outside of court and details of the final settlement are fuzzy. Apple has been known to be very aggressive in its legal action towards smaller companies. We shall wait and see what the outcome is. Source Thoughts? Comments?

At Intel IDF 2015, Intel has confirmed with the launch of their Skylake processors in 2H 2015 with their 100 series chipsets ready for shipment to motherboard manufactures in May of this year. Intel Skylake will be Intel's 6th generation mainstream processors, using a brand new socket LGA1151, that comes in either a dual core or quad core configuration. The processor itself will support either or both DDR4 and DDR3L memory. Note that DDR3L runs at a lower voltage than standard DDR3. According to JEDEC specs DDR3L runs at 1.35v, where as DDR3 runs at 1.5v. IMO the decision for DDR3L might be to keep in close range in with DDR4 as it runs at a even lower 1.2v. Along with the processors, are the Intel 100 series chipets. They will be 6 chipets to choose from with the enthusiast Z170 at the very top of the ladder. The Z170 chipset will feature 20x PCIe 3.0 lanes, 6x SATA 6Gb/s ports, 10x USB 3.0 (14 in total, including USB 2.0), support of up to 3x PCIe based storage, supporting Intel RST, and with partial support for overclocking on non K processors. Interestingly, the Z170 isn't the only chipset that's capable of the features mentioned, their Q170 chipset is exactly the same as the Z170, except the Q supports VPro, as it's catered towards business. Both of these chipset also supports graphic card configuration in single at x16, dual at x8, and triple at x8/x4/x4.

So, I'm a small youtuber, and I've had an issue accessing google+/responding to my video comments on Waterfox (a 64 bit browser for firefox (as a side note, my father's company's security IT guy says it probably isn't safe, so if you have information on Waterfox, please tell me)), so I tried Microsoft Edge to use as a different browser. After spending a whole night trying to tell Cortana to stay out of my life and not to track me, I decided to open Google Chrome; my old browser which I no longer used because it supposively listened to all my convorsations. I open the page, and it seems to work fine. I go to youtube.com, and all the photo sections are changed to a face of a man, not just any man, but different photos of him. I'm not into pop culture or anything like that (I'm a techie... Seriously, there's a world besides sada cables and SSDs!?), so I can't recognize him. Anyone else have this error, or any ideas how to trouble shoot it? Attatched is a video. I got a cold, so i'm both annoyed and tired of running into errors from so many stupid browsers. Basically: 1) Does anyone else have this problem or know what's wrong? Is it cause I haven't been on chrome? (has my laptop been hacked or something?) 2) Who the heck is that guy? (just curious) 3) Is waterfox a safe browser (my father works for a pretty strong IT based company, so to hear waterfox may be unstable is disturbing) Thanks! -LukeS I_M_3rd
