    Using an i3 cooler on an i5?

    So I recently shipped my computer, and in the process, the CPU cooling fan broke, so I ordered a replacement. It's the same socket as the old one, but slightly different. It doesn't have copper as far as i can tell, and on the sticker, the old one had 12V DC and 0.60A, where as this one has 12V...

    Can you use a microphone from a headset, but have sound pay through speakers?

    I want to get a headset for my pc, for skype/online gaming, but I'm basically going as cheap as possible, and don't want to have to use a really bad headset when I have my desktop speakers. Is it possible/simple to have sound play through the speakers while the microphone of a headset is still...

    Computer restarting during gaming

    So I've built a computer recently, and as the title implies, I've been having issues with it shutting off when I'm gaming, usually after 20-30 minutes. For context: Intel 15-4430 ASUS H81M-D Plus XFX Radeon 280X 3GB Double Dissipation EVGA 500W 80+ Bronze Certified Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD...

    I'm assuming my PSU is broken - advice and recommendations?

    I have no access to another system or PSU to plug into. Does anyone know if it's worth getting another of the same PSU in terms of reliability?

    I'm assuming my PSU is broken - advice and recommendations?

    So I've recently built a new computer, and it all runs fine, except for when I try gaming. After a little while, usually 20-30 minutes, the computer shuts down, usually attempts to reboot once, then reboots a second time and starts up completely. I was having issues with ASUS anti-surge so I...

    My HDD shows up in the list of SATA drives in BIOS, but not in the BIOS boot order

    My options when I right click on it are Convert to Dynamic Disc, Convert to GPT Disk, Properties and Help. Which one of these is it? Sorry for all the questions

    My HDD shows up in the list of SATA drives in BIOS, but not in the BIOS boot order

    I take that back. I can find the drive under Device Manager and all seems to be working properly, but when I open the "THis PC" view, it only shows the SSD and my disk drive

    My HDD shows up in the list of SATA drives in BIOS, but not in the BIOS boot order

    It should be, but I can't get it to appear in the boot options at all. It shows up in bios, but not in the boot priority menu, just the Sata Information tab. And it's not visible in the OS, just the SSD and disk drive.

    My HDD shows up in the list of SATA drives in BIOS, but not in the BIOS boot order

    So I've built a new computer, and for a few days, until I got another SATA cable, I was running just from the SSD. Now however, I've connected the HDD, and it shows up when I go into BIOS and look at the list of devices connected to SATA ports. However, when I go to look at the boot order, the...
