What got me hooked is: A) The graphics. PC was obviously first to go 3D and that was such a MASSIVELY HUGE shift at that time. B) PCs are different from consoles in that they have multiple uses and that was and still is intriguing to me. C) So many games. I don't know that I could pick just 1...

I don't stream really, as I'm not good enough of a gamer for my gameplay to be interesting, and I don't believe I'm very entertaining to watch game. However, I will say for recording vocals (whether it be music, podcast, audiobook, streaming, etc.) I will put my Charter Oaks SA538B microphone up...

Kingston Hyper X Cloud Revolver. It's an amazing wired headset. The quality of the muffs are incredible and perfectly comfortable for long stretches. The sound quality is on point with outside sound suppression, and from what I hear the mic is incredibly clear with no issues in being...

Corsair M65 Pro. Probably not the world's best mouse, but it's comfortable as heck, has an adjustable speed button, the iCUE software works well, and it's just a light and responsive mouse. It also helps that it pairs well with my Corsair K70 LUX. I'm not particular with mice. I don't play MMOs...

Corsair K70 LUX - Cherry MX Blue. Hands down my favorite keyboard I've ever had. Love it so much after I bought one for home, I bought one for the office. I love Corsair's layout of their K-Line down to the size and spacing of the keys, the material on the top of the keys, the buttons for music...

We can only hope!! I mean it is insanely close the ideal monitor for gaming and if by making it smaller cuts the cost, and the MSRP, then that's a win-win!

Sorry, I know my post was long, but I believe you missed the point I made of very strongly disliking Massive monitors that are a 32:9 aspect ratio. Obviously I was very excited for it as it is certainly the closest to my dream monitor. However, it's simply too big and the incorrect aspect...

I once had an AW3418DW that I absolutely loved. I am a widescreen junkie all the way and I think 21:9 is the perfect ratio for gaming (and film/animation) and for a gaming monitor 3440 x 1440 seems to be perfect resolution for high refresh rates with G-Sync and HDR given the current limitations...

I probably shouldn't post this considering I don't have one, but figured if PC Gamer wants to know what we like for gaming hardware, I'd post what I've been dreaming of as I've been spending tons of time in a hospital recently due to a cancer diagnosis, and a gaming laptop would be so sweet...

Did you update Windows lately? Windows is known for updates that cripple systems in some strange ways. I also would download GeForce Experience, if you don't already have it, and update the Graphics driver for your GPU. That's all I can really think of, other then maybe just tuning down the...

Did this always happen or is this only after 2 weeks? It sounds to me like you have an unstable OC on your GPU/CPU. Did you you OC either of those parts? And test them to confirm they are stable? Based on what you have mentioned that seems like the most likely culprit. I would do a sanity check...

I will add this in regards to unintentionally switching audio source. When I connect my Dual Shock 4 to my PC (and this happens on every Win 10 machine I've used), Windows will automatically switch my default source to my DS4 headset port, regardless if one is plugged in to the controller or...

Also, I don't know what Graphics card you have, but often times with more recent cards they have RGB headers on the end of the GPU. Might wanna check that out really quickly before buying a hub.

Jeez, I guess my mom just really loved me. hahaha And also wanted me to stay indoors and not hang out with the kids on the block, since they were always getting in trouble. I also did my fair share of pirating once I got my own PC that was a little more gaming capable and my own phone line with...

I mean, if I'm being honest, I think I'd have to say Oregon Trail in elementary school when they still had Apple IIs. I distinctly recall playing that a lot, which I believe was prior to getting an NES at home. In regards to gaming at home. I had an NES before I got my first PC, so on NES, it...
