Wow you might be on to something. Opened the cabinet case and the drops stopped. I can't really install case fans on the side window though, since my CPU cooler almost touches it. Picture of my set up - http://i.imgur.com/tfWiimsr.jpg

Tried with that off too. I think I've tried every combination allowed by my motherboard.

All power saving features like SpeedStep, C-states etc are off in the BIOS. Windows Power Mode also set to High Performance. I ran a stress test with AIDA64. Here are the results - http://imgur.com/a/agLDW In a span of 10 minutes, the CPU clocks dropped to the 1500s around 4 times, but the CPU...

Dropping price to 4200.

Some updates - Went out and bought a Coolermaster Hyper 212x and now my temps don't cross 60C in games. However, I've noticed that when the fps drops occur, my CPU frequency seems to drop to 1500mhz temporarily when it runs at 3.3k mhz normally. Happens most noticeably in Overwatch and Dota 2...

Got the CPU cleaned and fresh thermal paste applied. I also have two fans in my cabinet - one in the front intake and one at the back for exhaust. Overall the temperatures dropped by about 10 C on average, but still went up to 86 C at one point. Since then I've done the following - Tried older...

I bought it for 5.3k at a local store in Chennai, but I believe you can get it for 5k.

Dunno about the others, but I just got a Samsung 750 EVO 240 2 days back and I'm really liking it. Almost the same performance as the 850 but cheaper.

Received my 520w PSU from RMA just as warranty was about to end but I couldn't wait that long and had to pick up a replacement to tide me over. It's a sealed pack with a new unit. Seasonic website mentions a warranty period of 90 days for replacement units if original warranty period is over...

I see them spinning right now. Not sure what to do then.

I usually restart the game and it fixes it. This takes about 30 to 60 seconds I guess. No artifacts at all. Any way to tell if the fans are spinning properly? And how hard is it to remove the heat sink and reapply thermal paste? I've never done it before. I was considering this. Looking at...

Drivers are up to date afaik. Automatically updated. My cabinet has a transparent side window and from here, the fans seem to be spinning correctly. It's a month old, so nearly no dust and I've got some basic cable management going too.

Hey guys, I recently got a GTX 970 and I'm getting these weird FPS issues in games where it just drops down drastically and stays there until I quit the game and restart, most noticeably in Overwatch and The Witcher 3. The rest of my rig is an i5 2500, 8 gigs of RAM, Intel DH67BL motherboard...

I know next to nothing about Hard Disks, but my computer is in dire need of more space after my 1 TB Western Digital died. I'm have like 4gb free on my 64 GB SSD which is holding Windows and Programs and another 20 GB free in this old backup drive...

Which one? Also, I just checked the original bill for the 520 and I had purchased it in 2013 for Rs. 3930. However, the same model seems to be selling now for Rs. 5,500 on Flipkart and Amazon. Did peripheral prices go up?

I have a Seasonic S12II 520 that's come back from RMA. Since I couldn't be without one, I bought the 620 version a few weeks ago. From what I can tell, my rig doesn't really require the 620, so I might end up selling one. How much can I sell each of them for?

Some more clips for a taste of the other heroes. Pharah (Rocket Launcher / Jetpack): Hanzo (Bow and Arrow): One more Tracer: Bonus clip McCree (Pistol kinda like CS Deagle):

If any new players want some help getting started, add me - Ashr#21453. I'll either answer your questions or play with you in game and show you the ropes. It's really easy to pick up though. I played with 2 friends on launch who never got a chance to try the beta, and one of them was playing an...
