Hey Guys, So I had a problem using the slideshow with the lockscreen in Windows 10, so I used a task schedule workaround: Open "Task scheduler" create new task(I put all tasks I create in a folder called "My tasks" for easy finding). name "Kill LockApp" new trigger "on workstation unlock"...

Hey guys, So I just finished building a new computer which I intend to use only for maybe 6 months. The last piece was the graphic card, and I was originally considering buying a used 8GB RX 580 off eBay for around $170. I got cold feet on about getting a used card, and saw this sale on Newegg...

Hey Guys, So I built/am building a media server/mining rig for my dad, but thus far have been unable to get the new system to post/display bios. Build: CPU: Ryzen 7 1700 Mobo: MSI B350M Gaming Plus RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX (CMK4GX4M1A2400C16) 2 x 4GB PSU: Corsair CX750 (2017 version) GC...

Hey guys, So i built a new computer, and I would like to use my apple ear buds/mic by connecting through a splitter to my nzxt s340 front headphone/mic jacks respectively (msi b350m gamer pro motherboard). The problem is, whenever I connect the microphone male to the female of either the front...

Yes, I have Start10. I have had some sneaking suspicions that that may be behind it, but I thought it only modified the desktop.

Hey guys, So I am unable to get the lock screen to use slide show. I was having issues with windows spotlight, so I thought if I switch to picture and switch back it would work. Unfortunately, now the same picture I selected comes up on start screen regardless of whether I set it to slide show...

Hey Guys, This is hopefully my final draft for my new gaming build. Just wondering if anything looks problematic or any suggestions you have for the assemblage and initial setup. Processor: Intel I7 6700K Motherboard: ASUS ROG Maximus Hero VIII RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB DDR4 3200MHz...

Yah the price per performance is there but... it's not an i7 :( .

Might I suggest: I7 6700k! If this is legit, close to MSRP: http://www.bonanza.com/listings/Intel-Core-i7-6700K-Skylake-CPU-New-In-Box/315603755?gpid=76984451581&gpkwd=&goog_pla=1&gclid=CjwKEAiA8qG1BRDz0tmK0pufw3QSJACfn6olb1VukEUEqx2L7j5QGzvfNGhgq9FW4ubPaLfJSHotSxoCU6Hw_wcB

You're fine Joe. Appreciate your input :)

I do not mean to advertise, but I am building a new pc, and I will not need my old one. I would have no problem selling it to you (through ebay) as I have no family members that need it and would hate to see it just sit in the closet. AMD FX6350 MSI M5A97 Corsair 1600 8 GB GTX 650 2GB 550W...

Thank you PP Mguire for your input. I understand your point about the i5, but I am confused about the "threading" state of games and how well (if at all) games can be benefited from HT (either directly or indirectly). From what I have been reading It all seems really ambiguous about what a...

Hey Ross. Appreciate your input mate :) . I guess with regard to my comparison my reasoning is: do I want to get the latest and reasonably greatest Single Core bandwidth for gaming which has the most capacity speed, core clock weight, and thus IPC, or do I want to get an all-around rock solid...

I am building a brand new PC and finally switching from a life long passion for AMD to see what all the fuss is about with Intel. So I find myself in a deadlock between these two processors. My primary function will be gaming with a few background processes going on (20 tab chrome, music, etc.)...

gotcha, thank ya sir.
