    FPS drops down half way

    FPS still drops in half. Movement also feels a bit choppy with V-Sync off. There is also no option for V-Sync in game. Edit: So I changed the V-Sync setting to "Adaptive (half refresh rate)" and it seems to have helped. Still drops from 60 to ~50 when something randomly pops on the screen (ie...

    New motherboard

    My old motherboard was an ASRock Z97 OC Formula. The new one is an ASRock Z97 Extreme 6. And yes, I was booting to the DVD to install Windows. Had to go to work earlier today so I couldn't surf the web a whole lot, but I'll surf around tonight.

    New motherboard

    Not sure what you mean if I toggled the XMP profile on my RAM... but I can say for sure I did not. It was definitely set to UEFI mode and was selected for the correct SSD. Yes, I had multiple drives hooked up to my mobo when I first booted after i got the new mobo in. Out of the 4 storage...

    New motherboard

    Hey guys n gals. My mobo recently died. I got a new one. Everything is now working. When I first booted, it brought me into the BIOS. I checked the boot priorities and set my SSD with the OS on it to #1. Said SSD is plugged in to the correct sata port. I then got the message, "reboot and select...

    Second Monitor Detected, No signal from PC to TV via HDMI

    I remember being at the store recently and saw a sign saying something about old HDMI cables not working with certain things. Maybe you need a newer HDMI cable?

    No beeps. I had micro center look at my mobo and turns out it is indeed dead. Only lasted a year and 11 months :(

    Blank monitor

    So I bought a new PSU, EVGA's 750W G2, and it didn't solve anything. Gonna return the sucker and buy a new mobo off from amazon. Only returning the PSU cause it was :eek: $120 at Micro Center

    Blank monitor

    I'm starting to think it's the mobo itself. All of the fans spin and all of the lights turn on, so it cant be the PSU, right? But then again, i have corsairs dominator ddr3 RAM and they light up, so would that indicate that the mobo is okay? I'm going to buy that small, round battery first and...

    Blank monitor

    Here's something I noticed... The section in the red box would usually light up red. The small box where you see two zero digits, that would normally indicate a bunch of red numbers upon start up. The + and the - would usually be red as well along with the reset and power. BUT it hasn't been...

    Monitor Problem

    Hey guys. I posted this in the GPU/monitor section but the thread wasnt getting much replies, so I'm reposting here. Delete if need be. I recently installed a new sound card. While I had my cases side panels off, I decided to redo my wire job. Boom, boom, done. Started up great. Monitor was...

    Hey guys. So I recently installed a new sound card. While I had my cases side panels off, I decided to redo my wire job. Boom, boom, done. Started up great. Monitor was working, but my keyboard wasn't. Along with that, I noticed the usb ports on my cases front weren't working as well as my extra...

    PCI question

    Yeah, those are the ones I circled in red, right? I didn't even see them there originally when I made this thread. They blend in so damn well lol

    PCI question

    :) thank you so much for that. I understand how the 'splitting' works now. SO, in regards to my mobo, slots, 1, 2, and 3 are PCIE 3.0 and the last slot (#4) is 2.0? edit: oh snap, i didn't even realize that my mobo has PCIe 2.0 slots cause their color blends in with the mobo itself! XD okay...

    PCI question

    I still don't understand your explanation per the spec sheet o_O can you like, dumb that down a lot more? lol edit: so i should just plug in the sound card into the last PCI slot? then my GPU won't lose any performance?

    PCI question

    But I'm confused as to which slot is the PCIe x1 slot.. cause all of the slots have the appearance of a full x16 slot.
