it looks like USB-HDD wants to boot the recovery drive but it still BSOD’s so it most likely is a failing psu, seeing as many people online say that cyberpower has faulty psus. But I’m not sure that would explain the inability to reset the pc at all and integrity violations reported by sfc...

I created a windows 10 recovery usb drive from a working PC, on my boot menu it’s a single page with an LS120, Hard Disk, CDROM, ZIP, USB-FDD, USB-ZIP, USB-HDD and Legacy LAN. currently the CDROM, Hard Disk and LS120 boot to a BSOD. Which one if not already tried would be the USB drive?

the motherboard seems to be a gigabyte GA-78LMTUSB3 R2? And the psu is unknown as where I purchased the computer it was not stated, it’s from cyberpower and is only a little over a year old, and yes, I cannot boot into any form of safe mode, and the only strange noise I’ve heard so far can only...

How difficult would the switch from AMD to Nvidia be? And would the dual fan card fit the case? It's what I assume to be the generic Cyberpower PC case with the two RGB strips going down the front, and a glass panel with an RGB strip going along the bottom on the side of the case.\

I'm pretty new to PC building and upgrading, which is why I have a prebuilt, but it has an AMD Radeon RX 560 (a smaller sized one not like a large one) and I was wondering how hard it'd be to upgrade it to an AMD RX 580 or some other better AMD Radeon GPU around the $300 price range.
