As someone who works in a PC shop, and has built PCs professionally for over 10 years...
I have never seen mainboard pins bent out of the box.
Now I'm not saying this is the case for you, but I do have to get things off my chest regarding...
One of my customers (he passed recently, RIP) was 85 years old and played World of Warcraft and other MMOs and was the raid/guild leader for all of them. He also watched a lot of anime. He was very cool dude.
Does the game not run on the 6850? In my experience, Diablo 4 will run on almost anything. If it gives you an error message stopping you from launching the game, it's usually artificial and can be bypassed:
Open the Diablo 4 game page on...
I'm currently using an Arris SB8200, which is a bare DOCSIS 3.1 modem, because I'm using a SFF Dell with pfSense on it as my router, along with multiple dedicated WiFi access points. With many combo units, you can usually disable the integrated...
No i'm not talking about Modem + Router combo units. I'm talking about standalone modems. If it has wifi, then it's certainly not a standalone modem. I'm talking about a Modem only, where you would end up with a public IP address on your...
I'm NOT advocating for the idea of running XP at all, but I'd still like to see comparison results from behind a simple consumer router. I mean really... no one buys a cablemodem or similar and plugs it directly into their PC with no router...
Does anyone know of a way to get this working with VLC? Right now, I can't get it to work with VLC or the Plex app. The only way I can make it work is via Plex, viewing content using a browser instead of the actual Plex app.
But at least that...
4 matching sticks would be the best way to go. You could use 2 sticks, but it would drop down to only running in dual-channel and you would lose out on one of the biggest benefits of the X99 platform (quad-channel memory). Your motherboard has...
I don't have any good leads on the GPU you are looking for, but you expressed your desire to max out your existing system, and I noticed you are running an X99-based system. I have several X99 systems that all started out life with 5820K CPUs...
OP, it sounds like you have bigger issues at play than just a lack of ability to create/download an ISO.
But if you don't mind the slow speeds, you can try to download it from my personal webserver:

Just because the anecdote doesn't apply to you doesn't mean it's not generally true. Personally, I think Vista was Microsoft's last great Windows OS before they started dumbing everything down and removing power user features from the "home" and...
I went down this same road with my 6 monitors.
The bottom line is, you CANNOT have multiple Nvidia drivers installed on the same system at the same time, period. This even applies if your secondary card is a Quadro (it will work but only if...
I can't see any reason to encrypt your drive using bitlocker unless you keep sensitive information on your hard drive and are worried about someone physically stealing your computer. In something like an office or a medical facility it would...
For certain business systems, there is a setting in the UEFI/BIOS which will trigger the automatic bitlocker encryption on a new install. Presumably the rufus option is to force bitlocker to remain disabled even on these systems. But for...
And that would make a lot of sense. Makers of certain business-oriented computers who are targeting certain customers; I could absolutely see them making the decision to turn this on by default. Bitlocker is a great feature for those who have a...
