    HP Extender Dock Station Project!

    I am pretty sure any kind of eGPU on ExpressCard/mPCIE will only work if you connect an external monitor to it and run games on that. It could maybe work if you use something that supports like nVidia Optimus and display through the inbuilt screen, but all those are mobile GPUs.

    Removed HDD now taskbar/windows problems

    If it was a windows PC you scanned it on, it might have set the owner of some files to an invalid user, and that would cause such a freakout when the installed os tries to access those files on its own. I do not know what could possibly solve this besides a sfc /scannow or a repair.

    You pick the game giveaway!! Part II

    I was pretty much born with a computer in the house. However my time spent at the PC was still pretty limited until i got into middle school. I still remember a few of the games which made my childhood. There was a rally game which i used to play that only ran on pre XP Windows so we had to dual...

    Advice For People wishing to update to Windows 10 Redstone

    It is amazing how they advertised that Microsoft hardware will get the update with priority and yet my only device that did not get it is the Surface Pro tablet and not the Desktop or the Laptop. I just wanted to try out the new inking features on that one. Did not encounter any difficulties...

    Best browser

    Voted Edge... I am just pissed at Chrome, recently i have nothing but issues. GPU process takes up too 1 gig of ram on my new laptop, probably cluttering the IGPU ram and causing windows 10 to use memory compression. Some incompatibility with the vp9 decoder in Skylake, that it uses more...

    Hardware Acceleration Isssue

    Nope, all set to max power, that was my first guess, i am on mains power and tried the nVidia GPU too and have the same probs. CPU is running at 2.6 at least when this happens. Like its not working at all and is falling back to software rendering but it still uses up the gpu resources too. And...

    Hardware Acceleration Isssue

    Bought a new laptop last week. I7 6700HQ+HD530+GTX960M is the main config. I cannot play 4k youtube or 1080p twitch streams consistently at the 60fps framerate the video is streamed in, i only get around 42-50 using hardwre acceleration. If i force the dedicated card the situation is pretty...

    PC Becomes Sluggish After Playing Games

    For me the same happened when nVidia borked something in the drivers for Fermi WDDM2.0. It causes system and compressed memory cpu and memory usage to skyrocket every time i played a game, and as the op said it lagged everywhere although resources were available. Found a guy who had the samer...

    Need advice for replacing laptop

    There is no way I can extend to anything that has over the GTX960, that would be valid for any of the ones i mentioned. And like i said it won't be mainly for gaming, yet it will game better than the GTS450 or the GT525M i currently have and that is plenty for me. The offer on the Asus lasts...
