Errr let me explain. I'm upgrading my motherboard/CPU and I'm told that my OEM ($100 version I bought at MicroCenter) version of Windows 7 will not transfer to another motherboard. Here's what I'm wondering, though. I need to upgrade to Windows 10 anyway, so is it possible I could use the old...

Just curious, since the prices seem to be coming down. Typically running anything in a non-native resolution on an LCD look pretty awful. But does the massive jump in pixels and density to 4K change that? I doubt I'll be able to run anything at 4K any time soon, but it seems like it might be...

I've run into some retro-styled games lately that don't have any filters available. Specifically, Freedom Planet, Shantae: Risky's Revenge, and Shovel Knight. Shovel Knight looks pretty solid anyway - no scanlines but I think there is a filter - so I'm cool with that. But Shantae is low-res and...

Been sorting a lot of my game osts and other stuff, and adding folder.jpg images because it's nice to see what's inside. It's a bit annoying, though, that it still shows the image *inside a folder icon*. Is there any way to get rid of the folder icon and just show the image? Note that I've...

I find it a bit hard to tell how many threads a game fully uses and I was wondering if there was a simple way (like some sort of software monitor that can tell what the game is doing?) to tell for sure. It's not always easy to tell looking at a CPU activity graph because it seems that...

Not quite sure what to make of this, was hoping someone might have an idea. Back when I had a out of date PC and 1600x1200 monitor, I often ran games letterboxed at 1600x900. The was partly taste and partly for a small performance boost. I'm interested in doing the same now for Skyrim...

I've only done some minor overclocking in the past, and with 6 cores, Turbo Core, and 3 programs and the BIOS available to use... I'm in a bit over my head with this. Basically, what I'm wondering is what a good configuration for gaming would be with this processor. I'd really like some way to...

Decided to start this because it came up in another thread: Totally agree, those two areas are unplayable with PhysX CPU due to the water effects. In fact, I do great in Bloodshot Stronghold until I reach the area with the whirlpool and pipe of water. If you could just disable fluids, and maybe...
