Hey guys,
I just picked up an EVGA 1080 FTW about a week ago to replace my R9 290. The card works perfectly 99% of the time, but I've had 3 times now when the system has just completed powered off, and started itself back up a few seconds later while gaming for about an hour+ while the card was...
Thought I'd share since it's the cheapest the Fury cards have been. Sapphire R9 Fury - $499 with Starwars: Battlefront for free.

I'm curious as to whether this cooler would be as poor as the R9 290 reference cards. I'm also surprised that this card is specifically an AMD card and not sold through one of their other partners (unless it's just made by Sapphire...

Hate linking to that site, so I'm sorry. But there hasn't been much news about the Nano. I'm excited to see what this card can do. Honestly it's probably the most exciting card out of the bunch since it actually takes advantage of...
So I have an older Core 2 Duo system and I'm going to throw a few upgrades in it to make it somewhat gaming viable.
Right now its
E8400
4GB DDR2 800
500W power supply
no video card.
I found another 4GB of DDR2 cheap, and also bought a cheap Q6600 for $25 to throw in there since it seems like...
I have an R9 290 (reference card that I've put an MSI Gaming hsf on) and I've been sort of tempted for awhile to try throwing a water cooling setup together. I have no experience with water cooling though and have no idea what I would need to get started. Can anyone recommend a good setup? I...
Just wanted to post that my HX850 was having an issue and I put in a ticket for an advance RMA. When I received the replacement it was brand new in the box with all the cables and accessories :eek: I was pretty surprised. The replacement works perfectly and it shipped out very fast. This was...

It updates the firmware if needed and then works to "restore" the lost performance.
Thought this was interesting :)

Not sure how many of you ever had a 3dfx card - but I remember loving my Voodoo3 2000 and being really sad when 3dfx went bankrupt. Pretty interesting though to hear these guys talk essentially about starting a whole...

Yikes! How could this not be intentional? Apparently the performance is actually improved. An album of screenshots after the upgrade -

Well.. this sucks.
System specs:
Gigabyte GA-Z87X-D3H mobo
i5 4670k CPU
8GB DDR GSKILL memory
Geforce 760
anyway, I had been running the system a little over a month and everything was fine. I decided to make the jump to windows 8.1 from windows 7. Did a fresh install of windows 8.1, but...
Hello. Recently I was planning to make the jump to a SSD. I'm looking to spend about $100-150 and basically put windows, games and any high use programs on the SSD for increased performance, leaving media and other large under used files on the regular drive. I went to order one from newegg but...
