Anyways, he couldn't bring his tower and stuff with him when he went, but he wants to get a Laptop. He's a gamer, but he will be...

    Need help picking out a USB cable for my G700s

    So I got a Logitech G700s as a replacement for my old G9x. Currently I am using my Kindle charging cable, because the default is junk. Now, I need a replacement, because something very odd is happening. The cable is starting to...curl up. Kinda like curly fries? So it's gaining resistance...

    One of my GPU fans is running far faster than it should.

    Both operate @ 2000RPM. I noticed a loud whine earlier, was confused aas to the source. Looking at HWInfo, and some other programs, show it running 4000-6000 RPM. If I attempt to turn the fan-speed down via MSI AFtetburner or so...it starts displaying incredible numbers like 28,000 RPM. It's...

    Games crash with SLI enabled.

    Every one of them. Well, except for some older games like Source Engine ones or so... But modern games, yeah... GTX670 SLI 2500K @ 4.5GHZ 128GB SSD 8GB 1866MHZ RAM W7 64-bit 850w Corsair Platinum rated PSU 335.23 Now, I don't know what causes this. It's really queer. It happened, a year...

    Need urgent help, stat.

    So I cleaned my system, GPUs, CPU, everything, it all booted up without issue. Yay, that rarely happens. But, it randomly freezes on my Desktop. Every 15, maybe 20 seconds everything freezes, really randomly now that I've counted for a few minutes. Like, my mouse can't move, stuff stops...

    Ordered from Newegg. DHL shipping.

    Yeap. God dammit. Package was almost to where I was, tracking now shows, 4 days later, it's moved a state away. SmartPost is bad enough, but -snip-, now DHL? DHL is worse than USPS(And I should know, having worked there.) So bad to use DHL. Newegg is just down the toilet.

    Shadowplay - Not quite what I expected.

    People told me this had very little performance impact due to the H.264 decoder on my 600 series GPU. Almost no noticable impact. Pssh. 120FPS, Solid. To 60-70 FPS. Yeaaah right. Configured it just like they said, Twitch streaming. Plummets my FPS, 670 SLI, 2500K @ 4.5GHZ, 8GB RAM, good...

    Either I suddenly suck at FPS, or my mouse is busted.

    I've always played lots of FPS and have been fairly accurate, be it SP or MP. However lately, when I try to make tiny, precise shots with moving my mouse, it doesn't work out so well. I have a Logitech G9x. I love it because of the ability to play with the DPI, and it's grip that comes off -...

    What happened to Newegg?

    I recall a time, when Newegg offered free shipping - ON EVERYTHING. Now it's usually 2$, even if you chose the 5-8 day shipping. Even on stuff that weighs less than a damn pound. They also used to have the best prices on PC parts. Recently, Newegg had "Sales" on certain products for Black...

    Wondering if I should check out Verizon Fios

    Just went live in my area - I think, the website says Internet is available, but then another part of the website says it isn't, guess I'll find out when I call. I have Comcast. Generally happy with them, except on the rare occasion they'll drop my connection constantly, or reading about the...

    Need help ASAP - SYSTEM overload

    I wanted to zip a file, into 50MB bits, however, I put it into 50KB! The file was 4GB.. I have hundreds of thousands of tiny files littering my desktop, around 260,000, causing my RAM & CPU to max out, and I've attempted to select all > Delete, but it just freezes up and I waited 3 hours and no...

    My Rosewill RK9000 died, need new MK.

    So I've been searching. the solder was poor, I tried to fix it, but I'm not good neoguh and my Uncle is a mechanical engineer who does it for a living but he says he doesn't have the tools at home to do it. So, I need a new MK. While Newegg likes to offer the RK9000s cheap, and I enjoyed mine...

    I had a new idea for a Mouse.

    So I layed my hand flat the other day on my Mouse pad. And I thought... "Hey" Why not have a mouse...I know it'd be big, that fit the hand. Then you could move it around naturally, and comfortably, across the mouse pad. It could potentially even have buttons on each of the fingers if you...

    Updated to NVIDIA 331.82 - Performance hit

    So I've used 320.49 for a long time because I heard the horror story about newer ones, but my 320 crashed sometimes in games for no reason, despite being fine in others for hours on end. So bit the bullet and updated. System seems stable, haven't done intense test yet. But I went into a UDK...
