    Will a new GPU bottleneck?

    Alright guys, it's about time to upgrade my PC. For the majority of my PC use, it is for gaming, so that is going to be the goal for this upgrade. Here are my current specs: mobo: Gigabyte H81M-S2PV cpu: i5-4570 @ 3.2 ghz ram: 8 GBs of DDR3 1600 (4 GBs ea) I've had this PSU for about 4 years...

    Windows 10 black screen full screen

    I've been using the latest driver for my card, there was recently a UI update for AMD's catalyst control center, however, I'm not sure if that included a new driver as well, if it did...that would mean two separate drivers and both would be having the same issues. My primary monitor has no...

    Windows 10 black screen full screen

    This is blowing my mind. Anytime I full screen a video or game, my monitor turns black during random scenes. The second I run it in a window, it goes away. Full screen windowed does not fix the problem, but an actual window does seem to fix the problem. Here's what I've gathered: If I alt...

    Monitor not detecting

    After moving my brother and my computer stuff, his monitor no longer detected his computer via the dvi port. I know his computer was working, it even allowed us to long into windows, the monitor was just not receiving the video signal. So I decided to test my own monitor on his computer, and...

    Replacement CPU/heatsink fan

    So I just replaced my mobo (long story) Buuuuut, I broke the hinges on the CPU's fan, so I'm going to have to get a replacement fan. I emailed Intel to see if they'd send me one, if not, I'll have to get an aftermarket one. In which case, which aftermarket solution should I settle with?

    Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    I actually already ordered this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...&SID=u00000687 I could cancel it though. It probably doesn't really make much of a difference.

    Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Ohh, I get what you mean now. Ehh, I don't know if I'd want to risk that. I guess I'll just get a new motherboard, I have to reinstall Windows anyways since I'm getting a SSD next week. On that note, Windows 7 or Windows 8 :p?

    Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Are you implying I should plug my PCI extender into a right angle adapter? Because that still wouldn't work, I tried to explain this in my picture. I can connect the cord into the PCI slot on the motherboard just fine, the problem is the PCI slot on the cord is simply too tall, much higher than...

    Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    Like I said before, all the right angle risers simply make the card sideways, I can't mount it if it's sideways. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_no...angle+riser+x1 See what I mean?

    Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    I just purchased the PCI cord, and my sound card still doesn't fit, see here: http://i.imgur.com/Fx2xw4y.jpg Imagine the sound card mounted on top of that, the only problem is that's about 2-3x times higher than the motherboards PCI slot, so the sound card won't properly mount into my case, it...

    Yeahhh, if the soundcard is facing the wrong way, how will I get to the audio ports from outside the case :p?

    Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    I already ordered it. If worst comes to worst I could weld a popsicle stick between the riser and the GPU, I'd be pretty mad if I had to do that though.

    I do like that idea more than popsicle stick mods, I suppose I can try that out. Thanks guys.

    Sound card doesn't fit on MOBO, new MOBO

    It's a 7950. I'm not going to lie, that fix sounds super ghetto, could having the cards not stand perfectly straight damage the cards or pci slots? I'm so glad I don't have a glass panel, I wouldn't be able to stand looking at that everyday (assuming I did it) lol. And even then, how badly...
