Thanks, I just picked one up (the X) from Micro Center, they had the best price.

Hmmm, I'm seeing a $65 difference with the lowest prices I can find for each. I understand that the X might be better, but how much better is it really?

Hi, my kids are building a gaming computer, and the CPU they've chosen is an AMD Ryzen 7 2700X 3.7GHz 8-core. I think there was some confusion between the 2700x and the 2700. Anyway, the 2700X has a clock speed of 3.7 GHz and the 2700 has 3.2GHz. Is there much difference between the two, or...

So, it turns out the problem was the automatic update application that Microsoft used to notify people and "reserve" the upgrade. It simply wouldn't recognize the change in hardware. Hmmm, maybe it's "easier" to suggest buying a new computer? Anyway, I downloaded Win 10 directly from Microsoft...

Ok. Will it still give me an error, saying it still detects the incompatible video card?

The video card I installed is the "MSI GeForce GT 720" discussed above. Everything is connected properly, and it's working. The Windows update program just isn't recognizing it. I went into BIOS and made sure the onboard video card was disabled. Actually, the whole point of my thread was that I...

Ok, I swapped out the power supply, CPU and installed the graphics card. I followed the steps above, but when I went to upgrade to Windows 10, I got the same error message: NVIDIA GeForce 7050 / NVIDIA nForce 620i The display manufacturer hasn't made your display compatible with Windows 10...

Ok, I'm less than patiently waiting for a power supply, video card, and CPU in the mail. In the meantime, I have a RAM question. I noticed the RAM that you recommend is PC2-5300. I asked a Crucial Rep what was compatible with my system, and used their "scanner", and their recommendations were...

When you say E8400, is this what you mean? http://www.amazon.com/Intel-E8400-3-0GHz-Processor-EU80570PJ0806M/dp/B0019NKGR4/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1455724877&sr=1-1&keywords=e8400+cpu Also, is that all I would need to buy to upgrade the CPU?

Thank you so much! I will try these and let you know how it went.

Hello all, dumb question time! I have an eMachines ET1831 computer with Windows 7 Home Premium. I have been getting those little messages in the right hand corner to upgrade to Windows 10. When I try and do that, I get a message that my video card is not compatible: "NVIDIA GeForce 7050 /...
