    Review Asus ROG Destrier Gaming Chair Review: Comfortable and Configurable, for a Price

    Wobbly armrests is, as someone else mentioned, unacceptable in any professional gaming club or in my opinion, anywhere. They are damn annoying!

    News Best Gaming Laptop Deals for Cyber Monday: Cheap Alienware, Razer, Asus and more

    Weird to see an image of an ASUS TUF model but no listing. And no ROG Strix G513/Strix 15? The pricepoint of the Ryzen models shame these things I'm seeing. I sense bias.

    News Best Black Friday Gaming Laptop Deals: What to Expect

    These seem pretty far from a good deal. I get the gimmick but they chose models that aren't flagship-worthy. Asus ROG STRIX 15 Ryzen 9 with a 3070? Yeah that's the model that should be getting a price reduction. Ah well at least they are going through the motions.

    Question Asus Rog strix G15 G513QM and Samsung G7?

    Hi, very similar setup you've got to mine! Only difference is I've got the QR model rather than the QM. Yes, your USB-C port supports 2k, and while my model maxes out at 165hz, the Asus Rog Strix G15 G513QM gives you 300hz. You'll be able to take advantage of it with USB-C > DP. .very...

    Review MSI GP66 Leopard Review: Subtle Powerhouse

    Yep, dealbreaker for me, my current MSI Laptop's garbage battery life has shown me just how important it is to have reliable power management and as much battery life as possible. What a pricetag too

    Acer Nitro randomly shutting off after seconds of inactivity

    Had you not checked your temps I'd usually think this was a heating issue, but I'd check your event viewer and see if there's something noteworthy the exact time it chooses to shut off. It's really weird that it does it during inactivity; I'm assuming you've already scouted out your power...

    Im worred for my new pc from cyberpower pc

    He is correct though, you should be fine for normal usage, you really only hear about the PSU failures since they generally don't receive much coverage for "successful PSU's." Likely because all PSU's are expected to be fine ;p That setup shouldn't have issues.

    Hands On With OFM’s Respawn 205 Gaming Chair

    Pricepoint is absurd, but I'm one of those morons who felt trendy and got a dxracer a year ago, only to discover just how uncomfortable it is versus a 50 dollar cushy office chair. Only then did I do my homework--that it's a friggin bucket seat from a car with two little 'cushions' everyone...

    Potential PSU failure (trying to help my friend here)

    So my buddy had been using the same cobbled together desktop from when he was deployed over-seas, and while it isn't exactly a nuclear missile reactor, it serves his purposes (We play POE together). His specs as far as I can tell (it won't turn on now) is: i7 (no clue which gen) A 650...

    Asus' ROG Zephyrus Is A Crazy Thin Gaming Laptop

    Mmm, not sure about that num pad. Sleek bit of work though that's undeniable. I guess not everyone uses the num pad as much for gaming, but if the homerow portion of the keyboard is on a raised lye, why change it at all? :p

    ASUS H170 Pro "Please enter setup to recover BIOS setting.." so sick of this.

    Captaincharisma: yes, I tried resetting the CMOS, still no joy. I ended up reformatting the system drive and went through a mess of BIOS tweaks I wouldn't have ever thought relevant to fix this. Thankfully my data drive was untouched, as I accidentally went through the RAID creation process on...

    ASUS H170 Pro "Please enter setup to recover BIOS setting.." so sick of this.

    I have spent the last two days reading up on all the issues resembling what I have been encountering on my gaming desktop, which is an iBuyPower BB904 I won at a Best Buy raffle about 10 months ago. Specs are here...

    cant update my graphics driver

    Uninstall/remove the working one that is labelled 'Engineering Sample WDDM' - This should give you the proper representation of the same driver. It is basically just telling you that it's unfinished but functional enough to be released. It sounds like there was trouble amidst the conversion...
