Hi Alfred,
I've recently built a new rig and I purchased an intel CPU i5 2500k overclocked to 4.8 and GPU MSi GeForce 560ti GTX and also a new Corsair Force 3 SSD. Im very impressed with this system and I game a lot with it. This will be my last upgrade for a while so I was wondering in the future should I go for an intel i7 or just get another 560ti to SLI as my final upgrade to this machine. Probably in a year or so. Thanks Ryan |

Ryan, the second GPU would probably serve you better for gaming purposes. You may want to ask that one at a gaming oriented forum though. There are huge communities built around game performance optimization on a budget.

Hello Guys and thanks for dropping by... Now back to work
Quote:
There are many aspects of Gaming. However, the most important would always be frame rate, frame rate and.... frame rate. The i7 is nice but for bang for the buck improvement on gaming, then I would agree with transio. This is also dependent on the game you would run. Quote:
Another option is for you to uninstall the softare (HP full feature) restart and reinstall it. One question that I have is, what software are you using to scan? Is it the scan feature in windows, HP start smart? Paper port? give us more details,,, any error messages? Quote:
Thanks guys and have a great evening!!!

I can't upload pix since I lost the use of Photobucket. Thanks, I think I'll take it to the store where I bought it.

First, I love Ireland. Its on my list of places to see.. Now back to the topic at hand... which is a good question by the way... Registry Cleaners are TEMPORARY FIXES... They are a hit and miss. Sometimes they solve the problem, sometimes they dont. It actually depends on the reason why the PC is slowing down. Free softwares that are great...: Malwarebytes is one of them definitely.. AVG Free anti Virus is also a good one. COMODO free anti virus... when you are an advanced user and can tolerate their defense warning system. These are for home use only. we use different tools in the Enterprise level. The General rule of thumb is have a backup of everything. Acronis online backup is only $50 a year and has a 250GB storage capacity. This is similar to Carbonite which is more expensive. Every 18 months, Backup everything and do a clean install to keep your computer running like new. There is not escape from OS ROT (Operating System Rot). Thank you for your question and I hope I was able to help clarify some things All the best... Alfred

I also use a registry cleaner named CCLEANER and it has served me well over the past few years. It is a free utility. Remember folks, it is always good to let the software do a registry backp prior to deleting the unneeded entries.

"if you have any computer questions or issues. may they be Desktop Laptop or Servers, Windows to Macs (sorry not certified with Linux) then i will gladly help you guys out....
so just post away..." My questions are... "will a USB 2.0 port on a PC read text files written on a Mac, transferring those docs from a USB 3.0 port; this is assuming that both versions of MS Word are compatible on each operating system." And, what do you think of partitioning a laptop to accomodate Windows7 and compatible programs? The only reason would be the need for learning iOS, but having access to PC programs when necessary. Thanks for the tips

back in the days, when you want to learn a new OS partitioning is the way to go so you can "multi Boot" different OS in the same machine. you only need a compatible boot manages to handle the boot selection query. IE having linux, windows and MAC OS in one machine. but now, you dont need to do that. Install Virtual Box which is a free Virtual OS handler and install as many different OS as you want.
