    After using my 1080 for two weeks (Gigabyte G1 Gaming), yesterday after a bootup I noticed that the card only sends out signal on one of the display ports (it has 3 DP, 1 HDMI).

    Effective undervolting/underclocking - how?

    Hola, I have a server (E5200 + GA-G41M-ES2L + 2 HDDs) – naturally in this case, speed is much less important than power consumption. So I thought it would be a good idea to toy around voltages: I whipped out my cheap power consumption meter, and entered the BIOS. I found very little usable...

    Is this CPU burned?

    My girlfriend said his PC died today, after several times of motherboard-beep-filled shutdowns. Even after a CMOS reset, the motherboard now won't turn on (only for a nanosecond, also spinning up the CPU and PSU fan, so I presume these two are okay, as is the motherboard itself). I suspected...
