    Upgrading gaming build

    Hey guys, considering adding upgrades to my first build from back in 2012 which has only been changed once since then (GTX 680 to 980). Current build: CPU: i7 3770k Cooler: Noctua NH-D14 GPU: EVGA GTX 980 RAM: DDR3 Kingston HyperX 1666MHz MoBo: Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB...

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    Eircom, they're a god-awful Irish ISP.

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    I'm going to include all pages of the NAT section, just in case I did not use a correct setting. I also still am unable to connect to putty or Telnet. I have no idea what could be causing it, as my firewall is not running. I'm simply at a loss.

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    My uploads are pretty god awful, as you mentioned, mostly at 500b/s, but 52757 is just an example that I chose to use for the sake of simplicity. In reality, no port that I forward ever shows as open. For example, I decided to test to see if I could connect to a Teamspeak server hosted on my...

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    I was asking someone else about this problem, and I was told to enable the World Wide Web services program and try and connect to it with another device on my network. The website loaded on my phone, which I believe indicates that there is no longer a problem locally? I've checked...

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    When you said that it reminded me of something that I had seen before in my router which said ICMP... I changed this from LAN to WAN & LAN, would this make any difference? There are also several other tabs as seen in this picture, most are set to LAN only with FTP and SNMP being set to...

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    I was conferring with someone else about my problem and we discovered that my internet is refusing certain requests. He attempted to ping my IP and the connection was rejected. Does anyone know a reason that this could happen?

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    To be honest, I really have no idea what I'm doing, but I'm almost certain I have everything set up correctly. This is what Vuze says: Can either of you suggest an application and a port to forward just so I can try and see if port forwarding works at all?

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    I hope I've done this correctly. I've enabled Telnet within Windows and I used the command "open 192.168.1.3 52757", which is my computer's IP and the port which I wanted to open. I've also tried my router's IP and the default port Telnet attempts to connect to. All of these result in the error...

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    I'm not sure what you mean by this first sentence? Apologies. Vuze. It's a BitTorrent client (Only for legal things, I assure you! My ISP is extremely strict).

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    I believe it was at the time, but just in case I was incorrect I also had a port triggering application ensuring that something is definitely listening on the port. I've tried both adding the ports as rules to my firewall and completely disabling the firewall, no matter what happens I just...

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    Apologies, this was a copy and paste from another forum. Forgot to make amendments to the original post. I have since only included my computer's IP and removed my router's IP.

    Port Forwarding not working no matter what I do

    Right, so I've been tearing my hair out over this the past few days. I've consulted multiple sources but I cannot find fault with what I am doing. UPnP is enabled, the router's firewall is set to low, both my computer and antivirus' firewall are disabled and I'm fairly confident that I have set...

    B2 error with new GPU

    Thanks so much for all of your help. I updated the BIOS and connected the GPU again and it's working perfectly. Thanks again!

    B2 error with new GPU

    Yes, I triple checked. Tried switching to a different PCIe slot as well.

    B2 error with new GPU

    I had a GTX 680 before installing this and it still works. Is there any particular program you recommend to flash the bios?

    B2 error with new GPU

    Corsair Enthusiast Series TX750. Also, I've found a BIOS update for the 980 itself, would this fix anything or is it some other solution I should be looking for? All of this aside, I have no idea how I'd install a BIOS update if I can't even boot the computer.

    B2 error with new GPU

    Got a GTX 980 today. Plugged it into my Gigabyte Z77X UD5H and receive a B2 error after the bootup beep and it hangs on the Gigabyte splash screen. It continues to reboot by itself and eventually gets stuck on the A9 code which is the BIOS initialisation. Is this a BIOS issue? I've tried...

    Do GTX 980 brands matter?

    If I had no interest in overclocking should I just go with my personal preference? At the moment I have an EVGA GTX 680 and it's been going great for 2 years.
