    Xfinity Wifi - Can't turn it off anymore?

    Hi, I've had a Comcast/Xfinity plan for about 6 years now as it's our only option in my older neighbourhood for high speed access. I can try 5G connections with T-mobile now. Frontier has only offered DSL up to 30 Mb/s. Ziply is not here. As bad as customer service has been the 3-4 times...

    Which kit would you choose? (4 stick vs 2 stick question, again)

    Hi all (and Happy Thanksgiving!), Without getting into a 32 GB vs 64 GB argument, which of the following kits would you use for Ryzen 3 with a X570 based board (knowing that everyone would rather choose Samsung B-die): Model F4-3600C16Q-64GVKC (4x16 GB kit, Timings 16-19-19-39, Voltage 1.35V)...

    Advantage of Broadwell-E over Haswell-E?

    Hi all, I'm going to put together a new system this summer, and setup my current i7-2600K @4.7GHz as a system for the family/kids. I was awaiting Broadwell-E but I have to say that what I've read so far is somewhat underwhelming. Still, I'm going to move forward and get a X99 system. I never...

    Cooler advice for Fractal Design Define R5?

    HI, (tl:dr version: Anyone successfully mount a 280 mm AIO at the top of a Define R5 without trouble, with a X99 based MB? Do I have to settle for a 240 mm cooler? If so what is a quiet one available in the US, powerful enough for an over-clocked X99 based 6-core? Thanks...

    Custom resolutions question/damage possible?

    Hi everyone, I bought a Samsung 275T monitor recently and drive it through a 8800GTX (163.44 drivers). So far everything plays fine at 1920x1200. I know there will come a day when I'll have lower the resolution (and soon after that have to get a new graphic card :) ) This monitor's default...
