    Current RAM requirements?

    Was wondering if the RAM requirements for today and tomorrow have changed for normal use and gaming (no productivity)? Is my 16GB 3333MHz still okay? Do I need 32GB 3600MHz (4x8 as I understand that 2 sticks of higher capacity are a strain on the memory controller)?

    The Division 2 Thread

    Hey all, is there anyone who is playing this game and wants to join a clan Warchild and I started? Comes with nice benefits from four members and up. If so, drop me a pm with your username and I'll add you. PC only, since clans are platform bound.

    GPU fan revving question

    Briefly touched upon in another thread, I'm suffering from random but frequent fan revving of what I'm now almost sure is the GPU (the pitch matches it). I see nothing in afterburner though. Only happens (and it started) when playing AC Odyssey. Ran Hellblade and nothing (likely different...

    Alternatives for wired internet

    Are there nowadays excellent WiFi substitutes for wired Internet but not in the form of a motherboard or add in card? Netgear A6210 WIFI USB 3.0 ADAPTER WLAN Adapter perhaps?

    GTX 1080 recognised but not really?

    The weirdest thing happened guys; after some Word processing I apparently lost my Nvidia driver (391.35) but PhysX was still installed. Used DDU, reinstalled the driver and now this: recognised in device manager, but not in CCleaner where it would normally list the model. Any idea what's going on?

    Please help me find a speaker set

    Who is willing to help me find a speaker set? I'm sporting an ancient Logitech X540 set (lol) that could do with replacing. I'm using it to listen to music and play games on the PC. Needs to be 5.1 and wireless. I've looked around a bit but I'm not knowledgeable enough, admittedly.

    Coffee Lake + 3333MHz CL16: avoiding SA & VCCIO tweaks

    I've been asking around but I'm afraid my question got lost in the plethora of posts that followed, understandbly. I've got the above combination coming on a Z370 (Apex) board (+ 8700K). Having watched Tom's CPU review I'm kinda annoyed with myself for openng the packet a day before I watched...

    Firefox quantum: what do you think?

    For a long time I've been waiting to ditch the horrendous explorer or edge but have not been a fan of for example chrome. I'm liking everything that quantum promises to be, especially the multi core support. Running the beta now and it's good so far. What are your thoughts?

    Dark Souls 3 w/ K&M: mistake?

    So I just installed this and always play everything with keyboard and mouse. It really seems this game would benefit from a controller, or is it just me? (I can't handle a controller, never could, so that'll be my loss then.)

    M.2 vs. more traditional SSD: real world benefits?

    For a next gaming build I have been eying the Samsung 960 EVO M.2 to replace my current, traditional SSD as the main drive. Interesting to note is that the M.2 costs around 210 GBP (=237 Euro where I'm from) at the time of writing. Reading various opinions about the real world differences...

    EK Vardar fans?

    I've been meaning to replace the 2 120mm fans on my H105 and think to remember TTL held EK Vardar fans in high regard? Can I also use one as the rear case fan or are they specifically and only radiator fans? I've looked and haven't found a reliable answer.

    Hourly 1 sec Powershell pop-up w/ error minimizes games

    Like the title says. Has been happening since last week only; no new updates or software was installed. Cost me a few game matches actually. It is a known issue however no solution I have tried (the most radical one being removing all commands that provide the error when trying to call to their...

    Corsair Vengeance LED single colour

    Assuming that someone has a kit of these, I was wondering if the light comes on by default (with whatever behaviour) or does it require software?

    Enabling 4 core boost on Z170, can it?

    Bit of a silly question: Z270 boards have this option and I was wondering if I can have that option on my specific Z170 board as well (Asus M8H)? I was thinking it may require the newest BIOS. At some point I may chuck in a 7700K (I know, needs a new BIOS) and see how it does at its native...

    Win 10 Pro: How to get the Windows Store app back?

    Hi guys, There are so many clever people on here so I'm hoping one of you knows how to get the Win Store app back after having removed most apps via the single Powershell command? I got Gears of War 4 with the GPU which requires the store. I tried login in via the store website, which...
