Will the system allow up to install programs to the Program Files folder that arent 64-bit? Does windows automatically determine what goes where?

Recently built a computer and have a question regarding how Windows 7 organizes programs. When I look in explorer at the how files are organized, why is there a "Program Files" file and a "Program Files (x86)" file? Im kind of OCD about how things are organized on my computer, and I dont...

Decided to do the auto oc thing again. 4.5 ghz, voltage up to 1.32. Is that ok?

Glad someone is having the same questions I'm having. I have the same setup, i5 3570k on Asus p8z77-v pro with cooler master 212 evo cooler. Auto overclocked and got pretty much the same results, 4.5 ghz. However i dont understand all the settings and after reading the board, decided to just...

I installed AI Suite and already auto-overclocked my CPU. I think it pushed my i5-3570 from 3.4 to 4.5 something. Still learning all the ins and outs of oc'ing. What about Daemon Pro Tools and Lucid Logix?

So are any of those unnecessary one's useful?

I'm wondering what programs on this DVD are useful, and what is redundant or not useful. Looking to keep unnecessary programs off my system, but I'm unfamiliar with what the purpose of some of this stuff is. I just built my first system, so I'm new to this. My motherboard is an ASUS...

The bottom of the case would be more dorsal than ventral. But I would describe the case if it were a patient laying on the surgical table as the top being superior/anterior/cephlad, the bottom as inferior/posterior/caudal, the back as dorsal and the front ventral. But you could also say the...

Yes. I meant bottom. I'm in medicine and the way I was thinking of it, we'd describe that as being posterior.

Wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a tower case stand. I just built a new pc with a Cooler Master HAF XM case and the only place I have to put it is under my desk on the carpet, which I hear isnt good considering the case has a bottom mounted PSU with a posterior facing intake fan...

Got it up and running! Don't know what I was doing wrong before, but I just unplugged everything and replugged. All good now! Thanks for your help.

Hi all, Posted this in computer help section. Was wondering if anyone checking this section can help. Here is a link to the original thread: http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2260157 I'm troubleshooting this now. I just tried to short the power pins to start up the CPU...

Tried Boochi's suggestion but it didn't work. Just unplugged everything and now I'm going to try this from scratch again...

Thanks for the response. I powered on the motherboard and GPU successfully by touching those pins when I tested them outside the case, but I'll try that when I get home and see if anything has changed. So the 3-pin fan connector that I removed the bifurcated power-looking cable adapter from...

Hi, Last night I completed building my first computer... I think. Here are a few specs which may help illustrate the problem: Case - Cooler Master HAF XM PSU - Cooler Master Silent Pro 850W MOBO - ASUS P8Z77-V PRO CPU - Intel Core i5 3570K GPU - Gigabyte GeForce GTX 670 OC SSD - Intel...
