Hello everyone,
I'm considering the idea of overclocking an Link Removed processor and was wondering if anyone here has any experience with this. My main question is whether it's actually worth it in terms of performance gains versus potential risks like increased heat, power consumption, or...
This is an old existing issue that I have had on an old Laptop that I purchased in 2015.
On the top left area there is a bright discoloration that takes only a small part of the screen. Maybe 0.1%.
This would reset and go away at any time that the screen is off for about 30-60 min. No need to...
Electronics and certainly PCs do not like heat. It is important that these devices stay cool @ all times and throughout their lifetime. That said, here is one of those "Best Practice" things that I suggest all too often does not even occur to people and that they do not think about or do on...

Due to the fact that management of my apt. complex never turns on the central heat, until I start freezing, I need to purchase an electric room heater of my own. I have considered this for years, but each time I start shopping I can't figure out which would be best for me.
I understand that...

thanks.
Hi there everyone.
I'ts been over a year since I last wrote on this forum. Last time was because I had several bsod at the start of summer which ended up being fixed by cleaning the cooler. Well, here I am again, with the same problem, except that cleaning my computer didn't work this time.

just a simple question, is the Dynamic Switchable Graphics associated with AMD/Intel Laptops flawed? other than the OpenGL thingy ofc.
I Played Mass Effect 3 on Max Settings, it runs just fine, but normally when my laptop heats up due to gaming, the game starts startling around, I can hear 1-3...
Hello there everyone,
I was playing Just Cause 2 yesterday, and my computer BSOD'd. I thought it was a one-time thing, maybe my computer was too hot.
It happened again after that happened (2 times in 1 day), so I thought I should post here.
Here are both of my C://Windows/Minidump files in a...
So I'm getting an abundant amount of BSODs while gaming, for quite some time now. It's basicly bound to happen, everytime I play a game, after 15 to 45 minutes.
How ever, it may (even though by far less frequently) happen while surfing.
The BSODs Names range from SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION...

A month has elapsed since the emergency at Fukushima began. But what exactly has gone on there and what are the priorities now?
One way of looking at the drama that has unfolded around the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors is as a narrative with one central plot, and a number of...
An American manufacturer has created the ultimate toilet, complete with a touch-screen panel, built-in sound system and a heated seat; be warned though, it will cost you almost £4,000 if you want to buy one.
The toilet possesses innovative dual-flush technology, according to its...

Link Removed due to 404 Error
A local authority has given the go ahead for a swimming pool to use energy created by the next-door crematorium to heat its water.
The plan, the first of its kind in Britain, will see waste heat from the incinerator chimney used to warm up the neighbouring...

I would like to know which one is better for a laptop and if the manufacturing process will make a difference in the heat?

Hello, I have bought the upgrade instalation disc for Windows 7 as I am currently running XP. When I was looking into Windows 7 I was advised that it is best run on an SSD, so I bought one of those too. I am currently using a laptop because I ordered a new PSU too for the new GPU I bought so...
I just recently built me a new desktop and for the first couple of days upon installing win7 64bit, it was fine. Did a 15hr system test and all went fine. Had it running for a good 4-8 hours a day. But then 2 days ago I've been getting random shutdowns out of nowhere. Shutdowns can occur right...

I'm not sure where the fault lies with this, for it could be either a driver or heat issue, or maybe something else. My video card is over a year old now, a Radeon HD4870, and has never given me trouble before. What's happening is that I'll come out of a YouTube video - say, exit full screen and...
