    Question PC freezes completely when installing a game on drive with Windows Installed on it ?

    It is a Corsair 750W PSU. As for the model? I don't know. I didn't put it in. I took it to a PC shop because I didn't feel like doing it myself. I did not. I saw no reason to reinstall Windows. I clean uninstalled my old GPU drivers and reinstalled RTX drivers. I never installed any other...

    Question Feel like my I7 10700K and 3080TI FTW3 setup is under performing. Not sure why

    I don't know if this will help, I can only offer a solution I figured out myself when I first put my new build together. Brand new, nothing installed, I downloaded Path of Exile on an SSD with 2070 super, 32gb of ram and a 12 core CPU. Easy mode right? Native FPS is 60 yet for some reason, that...

    Question PC turns on but there's no display, and keyboard and mouse don't work ?

    I don't know if this will help, but I had something... similar happen to me about 2 months ago. I was playing a game all fine and dandy then boom. PC shuts off. I was like "Uhhh, what?" so I tried to turn it back on, nothing. But, my CPU Fan, GPU and RAM RGBs lit up but no case lights lit up...

    Question PC freezes completely when installing a game on drive with Windows Installed on it ?

    Gooooooood morning everyone, I'm hoping someone out there that's more knowledgeable than I can help me with an issue I've never encountered before. So, here's a little backstory, my old PC was running a GTX 1070, i7 7700, 250GB SSD, 4TB HDD 16GB of RAM. Everything was fine, it was time for an...
