I'm looking at switching from my AMD Phenom II X6 1035T to an Intel CPU. I have no idea which one to pick or which motherboard.

I have an issue with my wireless, it has constantly disconnected itself and is starting to really annoy me. It doesn't happen at a consistent rate just whenever throughout the day and mostly at night. I don't know much about networking so I need help.

I recently bought 200W speakers which are amazing but the built-in audio on my motherboard isn't up for the job so I'm looking for a sound card that is. I heard Asus Xonar is a good choice but I don't know which one since there are so many of them. Any help is appreciated.

I currently have the Logitech Z506 5.1 Speaker setup and in short, I hate them. The build quality is crap and the sound isn't as good as I thought it would be. I'm thinking of selling them and getting better speakers a 2.1 setup to be exact as I don't see the need for 5.1. So I need help...

I recently bought an AMD Radeon HD 7870 which was an upgrade from 6770 and there isn't as much as a performance boost as i thought there would be. Some games where I know it should do excellent in it doesn't do as well as I thought it should. The CPU in question is an AMD Phenom II X6 1035T 2.6GHz.

Since I got my new 7870 I've been having a problem where my computer completely crashes. It happens whenever i play games like Metro 2033, Crysis 3, Planetside 2, and Skyrim. So I'm sure it's whenever i put the video card under heavy load, I have the latest drivers for the motherboard and the...
