Honestly there's so many cases I like but my biggest fear is that the day I order my case there will be a super badass one announced the next week and I'll be regretting my purchase. I might wait until CES 2018.

I recently bought the air 540 for my new build. Easy to build in, cable management was hardly necessary, but still pretty easy to figure out, and it looks beautiful. Cube cases are the shit

Welp, guess what I got for Christmas today? lol

Got a 570x. Was a pain in the ass to build in but it's all together now and the case is really beautiful. Not fun to build in and do cable management but very happy with the end result!

I also enjoy the R6, Cooler Master MasterBox Lite 5, and the H700i. My next case will probably be either the Air 740 or the H700i. That H7 looks BEAUTIFUL. Absolutely stunning.

I dont know which one is correct, but by me pc lack of speed im assuming my rain meter is. Does anyone know how to fix it? or what is going wrong? ive tried plugging my second monitor into my motherboard but everthing still runs slow. Someone please help
So I got it to open sim by using my hdmi with a david adapter on it. But now my cpu usage is jumping around from 14%-100% non stop. My sim when I finally got it to open, sitting at the menus was going from 125-30 like crazy. But that was running one monitor. I plugged my other monitor through vga to my motherboard (I’m only going to use it for videos and stuff) then with the second monitor plugged back it sim won’t open, and my cpu usage continues to jump around like crazy. Does anyone know how to fix this, or what do to

In the processes tab if you sort by usage, what does it show as using the highest? I used to have this problem on my work laptop that the usage would be pegged at 100% but no processes would show using that much. A reboot would normally fix that for me, but this sounds different.

Yeah this is a bit different bc my task manager on says it running at 31% but that was before now it jumps around like crazy. But my task manager says it’s oly 31 percent. It runs noticeably slower and more jittery

Opened my HyperX Cloud II today, really sweet earphones. Just have to get used to the sound profile.

On another subject, is anyone here playing with surround 7.1 in their earphones? I've always had it off when I had my Logitech G35 ones, keeping it shut off here too.

You're only running at 1.1 GHz! No wonder it's slow. You're CPU should be running at 3.2 GHz at stock speeds. Go into your BIOS and reset your settings to factory defaults.

Restart your computer and repeatedly tap delete until your BIOS menu comes up. Navigate that until you see like reset to factory default or something. The same thing happened to me once after a Windows update. It messed up a ton of my voltage and clock settings I had set and was severely underclocking my chip. I thought my chip fried or something and it was throttling itself but it was just some settings that got all wonky.

Does it do it imidiatly? Bc I right clocked and it said load defaults, then it says “load optomize defaults” I hit yes and I don’t notice anything happen
