Guys, my hdmi port stopped responding since my upgrade, help please.
Go to device manager and search for the driver related to your HDMI port then update it.


Also wanted to ask about your upgrade to windows 10. The ISO u used is it from Microsoft's website u downloaded it and were u asked for product key during the upgrade process and did it activate automatically after upgrade or you had to use Microsoft toolkit to activate it?

Anticipating ur reply.

In terms of instruction-per-cycle (IPC), Intel chips perform better but AMD typically have better integrated graphics...so in gaming scenes were it's CPU bound, Intel will perform better..if it's GPU-bound AMD should perform better. For an all round performer in gaming it'll be an Intel CPU with a dedicated GPU.

if you will be purchasing one soon, share the specs here.
Intel Core i5(4th/5th Gen) @2.5-2.6GHz
4GB RAM
AMD R7 GPU

is this okay for games like GTA V, Far Cry, Battlefield, Call of Duty, FIFA 16, PES 16 etc

Well you should believe what you feel like, your boom j8 lasting less than 8hrs on heavy usage means you've installed something harmful to your battery life, or maybe you are using chargers other than the j8's charger, if you don't know, chargers also harm batteries..

Hope you don't have battery savers? Well this is my battery graph on a mixed usage today (when I saw 5pm there, I never believed my phone could reach 5pm,but it died 5:06pm) cheesy this is approximately 17hrs on a mixed usage, but your j8 could go upto 2days on strictly mild usage... Tested and confirmed!
Can u send me a picture of the flip cover of your boom j8.

Is the windows 10 a direct download from Microsoft on your system?
Yes. Downloaded the ISO file from their website( Microsoft's ) using IDM

Activators are available for activation. If using iso for installation, internet connection not required (but required for activation).
Time required for upgrade, from 10 minutes to 60 minutes, system specifications dependent.
I have Microsoft toolkit available for activation in case. So there'll be need for activation after the upgrade even though I'm upgrading from a genuine version of windows 8.1?

If playing you would have a cooler environment, then it's AMD (if hot environment, AMD would overheat)
If playing in hot environment (Intel wins the battle).
Overall, I would go for Intel.
If I were to perform an upgrade to windows 10 on a PC running genuine Windows 8.1 now( and we are well past July 29 ) using the latest ISO from Microsoft's website (anniversary update) would I be asked for product key during the upgrade and will I also face activation issues? Also do I need internet connection during the upgrade and how long should the upgrade take?

i can't find the toolkit online, do you have a link i can use?
don't have the link for now. Just search "download Microsoft toolkit". The latest version should be 2.6 beta 5 (2.6.5)

If not for heating issues, AMD beats Intel hands down. AMD render good frame rates in games and run heavy games smoothly. Most AMD comes as dedicated graphics with their own VRAM while Intel always comes as integrated and shares everything with the CPU.

Intel will just serve for soccer and racing games, adventure games won't look well. If you're buying a laptop mainly for gaming, buy one with AMD graphics and buy laptop cooling fan as well

Over all, NVIDIA is still the chairman
Intel Core i5 ( 4th or 5th gen)
4gb Ram

which brand of graphics card should complement it, AMD or Intel for the games?

Guys please advice, I'm still running windows 8.1 on my laptop, will you advice i update to the windows 10? as in, is it stable yet cause i don't have gb to be updating the thing every week.
Download the ISO from Microsoft's website and then install it. if it asks for product key during the upgrade just skip. After installation has finished, just download Microsoft toolkit to activate it.

Thanks. Could you check out the series of Intel HD Graphics I should go for( like maybe 5000,4000 etc). And can play GTA v, far cry and other modern games at least at medium settings?

bro very correct you can see for yourself in my uploaded pics I was downloading simultaneously I get between 3mb/s and 5m/s nothing less than 3mb/s
Which 4G LTE device are u using? Is it the hourly plan u are using for your downloads?

After so much skepticism, I decided to give this night plan a try because I'm an ardent MTN nightcrawler.


I subscribed for the #50 plan for 1.5GB around 5pm on Monday evening. The next test was to see if it would work as stated. Mind you, the subscription process was flawless. The codes work as stated.



At exactly 12:06am on Tuesday morning, I inserted my SIM to verify all the hullabaloo on this thread and to my amazement, it worked!



It worked like nothing I've seen before for that price and my download speed was an average of 1.3Mb/s.



However, I am yet to confirm if you can subscribe more than once in one night even though there are many who claim to have done so.



By and large, Airtel has the thumbs up from me particularly after dealing with me mercilessly when the hourly plans were running. It's an experience I'll never forget because it was terrible at best.



Thank you Airtel for making my sleepless night worthy and thank you for keeping your word this time around.[/b]
Did u migrate before subscribing?
