Hey everyone, I think my GPU might have kicked the bucket on this new build I just pulled from the admin office. Everything runs perfectly fine using the integrated Intel graphics, but the second I plug a DVI cable into the card itself, absolute chaos ensues; I actually had to go into Windows and disable the thing entirely because it kept interfering even when I was trying to use the onboard graphics. So, everything is stable now, provided it stays disabled.

Now, I wanted to pick your brains regarding that standard 14-day return window after purchase—if I head down to the store right now to drop this off, do you think they’ll swap it out for a working unit within a day or two without giving me too much grief?

Hey there,

I’m currently weighing my options for a new build, looking at picking up an MS Voyager case paired with a GTX 950 1GB dual-fan model and an Intel Core i3-4170.
Now, here is where I find myself scratching my head: given this specific setup, am I actually going to need extra case fans? I’ve been reading through various threads suggesting that neither the i3 nor the GTX 950 are exactly known for running hot or pulling massive amounts of power, and honestly, looking back at some of the hardware suggestions I've seen posted on here, it seems like nobody even bothered to include extra cooling in their builds.
