Card Recommendation for Gaming Nephew

You guys are great! Thank you. Will wait for June, then balance the NV Pascal with the AMD Polaris (10 being the faster model than 11). I am also finding interest in several of the Video threads now that I know what is happening. The freesync monitor is new to me. Will look into that. Much...

Card Recommendation for Gaming Nephew

I am going to wait for June and decide between the two models, the Polaris 10 & 11. If I can get money from other family members pooled together, then I will go for the 11. Thank you all for getting me back in the game.

Card Recommendation for Gaming Nephew

I agree. tential mentioned Polaris above, which got me noticing all the threads referencing Polaris, which opened my eyes. Then I started reading a few threads and a few anticipatory review articles, which have led me to realize this is perfect timing. Now I understand why AMD's stock price...

What pillow do you use?

I received the Brookstone BioSense for Christmas. It is a great pillow for side sleepers. But I tend to wake up on my back. After three months of use, I started getting super bad headaches. Realized the pillow was forcing my neck and head at an angle that over time started leaking spinal...

Card Recommendation for Gaming Nephew

Hello, I ask for a video card recommendation for my 16 year old nephew. He is asking for a card that can run "Ark: Survival Evolved at 60 fps". Namely he initially asked for the GeForce GTX 980Ti 6GB but I balked at the $600 price. I am comfortable getting a $300 card and have asked other...

Bumper Integrity

Wow, sorry, 2006. Corrected above. Sometimes I think the 2000's decade was lost from my life due to a divorce. My thinking often just skips right over that period. That is what I am wondering about. The bumper cover popped back out but I am uncertain of the condition of the bumper...

Bumper Integrity

A car was too close behind me the other day, stopped in traffic. It decided to change lanes and contacted and compressed the rear corner of my bumper. I heard the bumper pop. The car is a 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt. The plastic surface layer of the bumper has been taken off but the bumper is...

Ketchup is correct. I need to pay more attention to the details. But I am not sure the problem is over. You will see.

I Woke Up a Cranky Laptop

Sorry about the typo. I meant to write "... idle and load". You did well though, thank you. Your temperatures at 84C are high. Laptop temps can sometimes run into the low 70C range but 80C is too high. How much dust came out when you used the compressed air? A lot or just a little? To...

Random crashes

Just in case, can you provide screenshots of CPU-ID HWMonitor at idle and load please? Since it is crashing when gaming, load can be after gaming for 5-10 minutes. Looking for temperatures and voltages. Can you also try uninstalling the nVidia drivers and revert back to the previous...

recover data from HDD that randomly stalls

I understand what you are saying about skipping a sector if it is bad but I haven't heard of any data recovery program with this specific feature. Maybe this feature is inherent so long as the damage to the drive is not physical. We can only hope. Sometimes the magnetic disk can get...
