Now you are talking about motherboard functions and how the memory controller does its thing. I have never heard of "partial" failure like that...
I did. Last May. But I hope to have a nice "Labor Day" and wish you one too! ;)
No, that is not at all how RAM works. You are looking at each IC on the memory "stick" as separate memory devices. They are not. The...
Thanks. I don't assume the one listed is the one with problems. People often have more than one computer, or are helping a friend or relative with...
Well I ran JavaRA first, then ran the update - also with no problems.
Sadly, it is not consistent and you can run JavaRA to see that for yourself as remnants of older versions are typically left behind.
And I think that is sad. I fail to understand how or why the programmers have yet to code the installation program to first detect previous...
It is likely they were working frantically to come up with a fix but keeping silent to prevent more and more badguys (and wannabes) from learning...
Every new motherboard I have bought in the last 15 - 20 years or so came with a large booklet, detailing how to safely handle, install, connect,...
Huh? I never said anything about magazine reviews. I was specifically talking about "user reviews" - as seen on Newegg. Magazine (print or...
You can find bad reports for any product - especially from users who typically are totally unqualified to write unbiased reviews. I never pay...
There is no color coding standard so you cannot go by that. However, if you look at the motherboard image here, the four slots in the lower left...
No big deal - as long as we are all on the same page so we understand and don't lead you down the wrong path. Anyway, the good news is, with...
You don't go by shape you go by interface. And yours is PCIe. Low profile is for slim cases. According to these specs, you have a standard mid...
Since you are not a gamer, you don't need to invest a lot of money in a card. And watching movies does not take much in graphics horsepower...
Then it sounds like you did your proper homework! :)
I know, but that does not matter. As seen on the motherboard specs page your motherboard has a PCIe x 16 slot (and a PCI slot too) that supports a...
No. You do not have to. But for motherboards that support dual channel memory architecture, to enable that performance boosting feature, the...
Good. I am glad you are happy. Typically (depending on your starting point) adding RAM provides the most bang for your money - by far. Not only...
Those testers are not suitable for here. While Earth "leakage" is a safety concern, it is not really an issue here for this discussion as again,...
