    TechPowerUp Announces TPUCapture v2.0

    I know it might be a bit tricky, but would it be possible to implement DPI Scaling linked between the zoom preview window and the Mouse movement? I use the zoom a lot but when working on someone else s machine (with a cheap mouse) it can be nearly impossible to select accurately when fully...

    Corrupted file RAR

    I might be being too obvious here, but are you sure the file you have downloaded is not just in a NEWER RAR version? Many people I know are still using RAR4.xx, and that is not compatible with the 1Mb+ compression libraries used in RAR5 format. In this case it would also report a corrupted...

    Computer turning itself on

    Ok, I realize this may be a stupid suggestion... But I got a new PC about a year ago, and my PC also started turning Itself on - at random times... See the thing was I also had a brand new super sensitive mouse - and my motherboard supported all these new charge your USB devices whilst I'm...

    Does Hyper Thread help multitask?

    To answer the title question : I have a 4770K - and It's a bit of a mixed bag with HT for me. Anything that is NOT really really well optimized for many threads ( MOST games - and yes many games do use more than one core but when you step from 4 cores ALREADY on a 4770K to 8 virtual cores...

    Sukam Inverter - is a voltguard necessary?

    Looking at the technical sheet for this inverter it seems that it already has equivalent or better surge protection already built in. It is difficult to say for sure without testing that exact equipment, but it does not appear to be needed.

    Mionix NAOS & AVIOR 7000

    Had a Razer Diamondback 3G before, but it finally gave in to years of my furious game raging, it lasted well but nothing lasts forever, I wasn't really happy with the newer Razer offerings (I prefer a very ambidextrous mouse - and a Razer has a habit of making side buttons out of rubber that...

    Maximus VI Gene with internal Wifi card

    This is an example of an extended range USB WiFi device - there are many models - this is just one example. Some people may also want to use a USB Extension cable to move the WiFi device further away from the metal of the case - In particularly large homes - or buildings constructed of very...

    Maximus VI Gene with internal Wifi card

    Look I'm no expert, but since the real experts are late to the party let me get started with : the case would likely dull the signal somewhat as they are sort of intentionally designed to block RF to reduce interference - not saying it wouldn't work - but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work GREAT...

    Low-end GPU vs. integrated - worth it?

    I think no matter how you look at it - mobile versions ARE scaled down and DO perform less. I'm afraid something simply does not magically half in size and power consumption without effectively doing less work at the end of the day - For sure my desktop i7 gets a LOT hotter when I'm using the...

    Low-end GPU vs. integrated - worth it?

    OK I may have missed a few posts here - there is a lot to read - but I recently built a new i7 4770K system - and have to wait a few months for cash to re-spawn for a GFX card. I have never used the new generation of integrated GPU's but the last time I even looked at on board graphics they...
