    Drive ~$50, also had no bracket or IDE adapter that HP don't make either, so I took it apart. :/

    Where the hell are you paying that much for an old laptop drive? Just get a used ~80-160GB for it and be done with it.

    I once got two used 500GB HDDs for $10. They're green drives, but oh well.

    If you can find a spare, but often isnt as financially justifiable.

    Guys i have a question, i have the msi gtx 960 4gb and i had some app that kept it locked at 1215mhz now it's gone and it stabilized but when i put it to maximum performance mode i do get a boost but when i close the app it underclocks Still
    (remember im not in adaptive mode im in max performanc) and power options is in max performanc
    i like this however it might be a faulty card but these are latest drivers, maybe the behave like this now i dunno

    **Edit** i have msi gaming app and i set it to OC mode and it gets me to 1415 when playing beam and then it drops to 135

    It's called GPU boost 2.0 and if there isn't enough power, voltage, or temperature headroom, it will underclock itself.

    Would these specs have a chance at running beamngdrive?

    16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
    512GB PCIe-based Flash Storage

    i get your frustration, however the amount of foul language coming from you is a bit disturbing, maybe just tone it down a bit? besides, its not yours, so who gives a crap lol

    its a 9800gt for crying out loud. Intel HD graphics can probably outdo it.
