MSI GS Series GS60 Ghost Pro 4K-080 at $2,049 Aorus X3Plus at $2,199

as a casual gamer and not someone who will play for hours on end, am I really going to notice a difference between the 870m and the 970m?

so how about the MSI GS Series GS60 Ghost Pro?

I'm not a hardcore gamer, I just want something portable and that will last me 3-4 years. I've read up on both but I'm not an expert by any means. If given the choice, which would you choose? The Aorus X3 or 14" Razor Blade or something else? Thanks!

exactly what I wanted to know! Thank you!

I have been out of the build-game for awhile.... I have in storage an evga 790i ftw mobo that I'd like to keep... maybe. 1000w power supply and 8gig ddr3 I dont need the best, but I want to make sure that my new components will be compatible. Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 Processor 3.0 GHz 12 MB...

hey guys... I have a 3 year old computer that l'd like to sell, but I don't know how much to list it for. Intel Core 2 Quad @2.83 GHz EVGA 790i SLI FTW OCZ DDR3 6.0 GB OCZ SSD 30GB 4x WD 80GB HHD in Raid-0 x2 LG Blu-Ray + CD/DVD Burner HTO Striker 7.1 NVidia 8800 GTS x2 in SLI 1000W...

Ended up d/ling Ubuntu, burning the image (using my wife's computer), and running the OS from the CD. I was able to recover all my files I need. I really liked the set-up too, so I might install it instead when my hard drive is replaced.

hey guys, I hope there is a quick answer here. The HD in my laptop failed, needs a replacement. No way to boot to windows so I need a program that will run off my usb flash drive and recover some files off the drive before they replace the whole thing. Any programs you know off hand that...

Mega666, I'm not leaving anything out when I make my posts... when I say "it's hanging at Automatic load AWDFLASH.exe...._" I really mean it. I think that if my computer was doing anything else, I'd write it down here... why would I leave anything out? This is a mystery to me and i know it...

ok, so I got the boot disk made using the eVGA E179_SZ17.exe utility, yay. I powered n the computer, it asked for the disk, put it in, hit enter, now it's just hanging at "Automatic load AWDFLASH.exe...._" Now it's been there for 30mins, nothing is doing anything. I made sure I selected the...

I found another guy in my squad who actually has a floppy drive I can use so I will try it i the morning and report back

I appreciate the help and all, but my post clearly states that, although I have hooked up a floppy drive to my computer, I have no way of creating a bootable floppy... it's all in my post above. I know about making a boot disk, really. My question, which I will reiterate because I guess it...

I moved this from AMD to here

Merry Christmas HardForum! I was playing some WoW last night when my computer crashed... I checked the temp of the vid card and cpu and they were cool as cucumbers. I restarted the comp and got a "bios rom checksum error"... yay I have an evga 790i FTW mobo with Award Bios I found a...

moved to intel mobo

The crashes were happening with both disk and file media. I thought it was my optical drive at first too but then the same thing was happening when I played videos from disk and then also from streaming videos on the internet. I will try MPC-HC. If you notied one of my previous posts...

okay, so I tried the whole disabling SLI... yeah, still did it. We watched the Waterfront DVD in VLC with no problems. NO PROBLEMS!! Then put in Cool Hand Luke and 10 mins into it, BAM! Frozen with the last millisecond of sound looping. Nothing is even hot in my case. At this point the only...

now that's more like it... but I have had my vid cards in SLI with my last MoBo and never had this problem

ok, I have no spare HD lying around... but I will keep that in mind. Thank you

Then maybe power dvd is corrupt too? and windows media player? and quicktime? No, they all do the same thing.

I used a driver cleaner, but I'll go back even further. I am not using a codec pack. I'm using VLC for DVDs and files like I always have and never had a problem.

again, I was watching a video when I needed to pause it... when I came back, it was frozen. This is getting weirder by the day.

I installed 182 series drivers and I got the same result

I'm using nvida 8800gts x2 in SLI with driver version 185.85... should I use an older version? nothing is overclocked

Ok, so I don't want to get into the details unless it would really help. I would like a push in the right direction because I have no idea what could be causing this. Any time I watch a video (Blu-Ray, DVD, internet video, divx from any hard drive), my computer will freeze. Sometimes 5mins...

well, so far so good... I have one mem stick in and windows installed like normal. I'm installing the updates and will start adding drivers soon. if all is good I will attempt to add the other mem stick. if I get the BSODs, then I know that's the problem and I will have to call up corsair

okay, I tried installing with only one HD conencted but with both memory sticks in and about 54% into expanding the files, I got a BSOD: page fault. I then tried the olther HD but then windows installer didn't even see the drive. So now I'm going to try one memory at a time.

Everything is on auto right now... I'm going to try installing one one HD at a time and with one stick of memory at a time

Moved from motherboards forum Greetings, I spliced parts of my old comp with new comp parts: Old EVGA 8800GTS x 2 in SLI 150gb WD SATA HD x 2 HT Omega Striker 7.1 sound card New EVGA 790i SLI FTW mobo CORSAIR XMS3 DHX 4GB DDR3 (PC3 12800) memory Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 ZALMAN...

moved to intel mobos

I have a 500gig WD external HD "My Book" and I can't copy any large files over because it says that the file is too large for the destination space. I have over 350gigs available and I want to copy over a 6gig .iso file. What is happening here? *edit* I just noticed that the external HD is...

just glasses with the display in them... I'm trying to simulate a bigger screen than I can afford :D

Oh come on, there must be some one out there...

Instead of getting a larger monitor, I was thinking about getting a pair of video display glasses; however, I'm having a hard time finding any really good reviews. I was hoping there are some of you who are buffs on the subject and could tell me what I'm looking for. I want them for gaming...

I was using my apple keyboard when the adapter didn't work. so I dusted off my Indestructible keyboard and tried the adapter... and it worked! thank you for the idea to use a different usb keyboard

okaaayyy... so the usb/ps2 converter didn't work... I have to buy a ps2 keyboard don't I?

I'm running the following: Vista SP1 eVGA 680i mobo 2x eVGA 8800 GTS in SLi I think it all started after the SP1, but now when I go to shut my comp down, it does the normal shut down routine and then my monitor enters sleep mode b/c it's not receiving any more signals... but the computer...

whoa! n/m... I just found a usb to ps2 converter... that's really weird...

hey GH, I need to get into bios but the computer will not respond to my usb keyboard... I searched the forms but found no answer to this dilemma. I know I could use a usb to ps2 converter but I'm short one and I'm hoping for another solution. thanks
