the only control of fan speeds I have right now is a knob at the top of the desktop that controls 3 200x30mm fans.

EDIT: I plan on getting that Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 Pro

I have a question about graphics cards. I have a HIS 6870, at stock clocks, that gives me artifacts. I'm getting little snowflakes on browsers, skyrim, and desktop, and weird polygons occasionally in skyrim. Using an i7 2600, 8GB DDR3, 400W PSU, on a 1680x1050 res

What could be causing the artifacts?

Overheating or defective GPU is usually the case for artifacts.

At idle, I'm getting a reading of about 40C for the graphics card, so I doubt it's overheating

Ok, 2 minutes into furmark, at stock volts and clocks, I hit 95C, at 100% fan speed... I don't know a whole lot about GPUs, but I'm pretty sure that isn't good

That isn't good. If this is an old configuration, you probably just need to clean out the dust in the heatsink.

Replacing TIM on the GPU is iffy for some people. If it's in warranty, not always the best idea. Some companies don't appreciate taking it apart.

The card is brand new, I just installed it yesterday... I'm going to go guess the next suggestion is RMA?

Oh joy... maybe it would have been better to go with a different brand of 6870

Meh, probably just luck of the draw, TBH, unless you got one with shit support.

Gotta say though, support being awesome is the top reason I shell out extra money for EVGA. But then they don't make AMD cards.

Hey, just need to find out if this CPU will be compatible with the mobo of this computer. I think everything should be fine, but I'd like to be sure! Thanks in advance! (I believe the mobo for the comp is an AMD 785G chipset).

No. Mobo is AM3, FX 4170 is AM3+

If you have that HP PC, there isn't really a worthwhile CPU upgrade for it.
The answers to most of your Tech Support questions are in the OP. That's why you're not getting a reply. It's been answered before. Read the OP.

I am looking to get a monitor to use a a dual monitor and I am not exactly sure the best fit for me. I primarily want it for watching stream and games.
I am looking for a high quality monitor between 21" and 24" with a price cap around $200.
I am interested in this monitor but I have read that it has ghosting problems.
http://www.asus.com/Display/LCD_Monitors/VE248H/#specifications

Any information about good monitors would be appreciated.
And yes I have read through http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=308280.

Thanks for the help.

I don't know how simple this question is but I have two computers connected to an router, one with cable and one through the wireless. The problem I have is when someone starts the one connected through the cable it's throttles the internet to my wireless connection. Or more precisely it kills it, like I have no connection at all. If I wait a few minutes it usually starts up again and then everything usually works fine. Does anyone recognize this problem or something similar? I have tried a few things like assigning static ips, disabling power saving features as so on but I'm not really sure where the problem lies, if it's the router (dlink DIR-615) or the wireless card (Linksys AE1000) or something with the settings for my network on my computers. Maybe it's hard to say what the problem are but if someone could give me some pointers where to start looking it would be appreaciated.

It's definetly a problem with the router, if it were an issue with the WiFi card on the PC there really shouldn't be any correlation with whether the other PC is on or not.

Have you tried updating the router firmware? What about doing a settings reset on the router?

Could just be a dying router, but those are worthwhile things to try first.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Yes I have updated the router firmware (last one was release a long time ago though) and done a factory reset quite recently and I thought it worked better shortly after but now it's basically the same again.

I do like new and shiny things so maybe that will be the road to go.

So I have a new MSI 560 ti twin frozr II, that very rarely has artifacts during regular use of windows, usually while playing a stream or video. The artifacts usually flash on for a sec, and then go away. There have been 2 occasions where during windows it said the display driver crashed and had to be restarted. However, there has not been a single problem with games (SC2, dragon age 2).

Load temp peaks at around 60 - 65, so I don't think it's a heat issue. Is it worth RMAing it? It was a new system when I installed the latest drivers, so I don't think there are any old driver files screwing things up. Any other suggestions?

It is really not a problem right now, I'm just concerned that it means there will be worse problems down the road.
