    Deals ASUS ROG STRIX G10DK - USED LIKE NEW - REVIEW BY KNOXTANE

    it does not. Those shots are usually made to look better than they actually are. I've looked into this as well because I thought it would have been a flush side panel as well. Some of these cases in reviews do show the Acrylic side panel flush with the case however, mine came with a metal side...

    Deals ASUS ROG STRIX G10DK - USED LIKE NEW - REVIEW BY KNOXTANE

    The Acrylic side panel was actually designed that way. All 4 thumb screws are on screw-in standoffs, otherwise it's just metal side panel. No fans in front of the case but I do plan on adding 2.

    Question Drive Failing?

    The GPU is a Gen 4.0 Card but it won't be able to run at that and right now is on the Gen 3.0 x4 lane.

    Question Drive Failing?

    So after some more digging I found that my RTX A2000 card is a PCIe Gen 4 card but I'm running it in a PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 lane, (waiting on a single slot cooler in the next two weeks or so) so I can slot it into the Gen 3.0 x16 Lane so I think the Motherboard is just reading that my card is capable...

    Question Drive Failing?

    Hey all, I've never really known when or how to find out if my Drive has ever failed as I've NEVER experienced it before. However, I was watching TV for about 15 minutes and my PC had been on for maybe 2 or 3 hours and I was on it prior to me watching TV, when I came back I saw this (This is NOT...

    Your GPUs from the past ........

    First actual GPU Card I ever owned was a ASUS DUAL GTX 750 Ti 2GB card. This was my "first" gaming PC that I built at 20 years old, I was on a budget and it was early 2014 so the 900 Nvidia GeForce series hadn't been released yet and a GTX 760 was just a little too much money for me at the time...

    Question DDU or Fresh Windows install?

    Well, I got the RX 580 and it was a bust. Card didn't like more than one port at a time, while all "worked" the card had nothing but artifacts and permanent ghosting and none of it was fixed with a driver update and restart into safe mode. so I'll be returning that RX 580 and hopefully getting a...

    Question DDU or Fresh Windows install?

    I have cleaned the 1080 but not replaced the thermalpaste on it. I took it out of the case immediately after gaming on it and it was hot to the touch, it started to burn my fingers, not literally but it was that hot. I dusted the case, GPU and let it cool off, I set the fan curve to 100% while...

    Question DDU or Fresh Windows install?

    Hey all! I'm getting a "new" to me GPU, to replace my troubled GTX 1080 which was also used as I just can't afford a brand new GPU right now. My 1080 has been acting really weird and I'm not sure if it's the newer Nvidia drivers or just the age of the card or the fact I purchased it used...

    Linus Tech Tips (Linus Media Group) vs Gamers Nexus

    I've actually lost a lot of respect for LTT, LMG and all other subsidiaries BUT mostly with Linus himself, in his "response" posted on the LTT Forums he makes a lot of excuses, finger pointing and plays the Victim card. He completely F**ked over BilletLabs and he said "We didn't sell it we...

    Picked up Battlefield 2! (Yes, you read that right!)

    I was browsing eBay, bored at work and I thought to myself "Ya know, I've never owned a copy of one of the greatest war FPS games ever made for PC". So, I looked up Battlefield 2 NEW and I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw a BRAND NEW copy, still sealed in the original "EA Games" Blue security...
