    Question Any way to save this poor R9 290?

    Well, I can tell the chips are R15, I can get them for quite cheap and I know the basics of soldering. Unless I'm getting something horribly wrong it should be doable right? And if not, I figured the best way to learn would be by doing.

    Question My pc screen won't turn on

    My first bet would be to try DDU, a program that uninstalls your drivers. Preferable to do in safe mode also.

    Question Any way to save this poor R9 290?

    So I bought this in the hopes it would be a simple fix, and it turned out not to be (at least not for me). Can anyone help me or give some advice as to what to do?

    [SOLVED] Why did my pc overheat so bad?

    I reset the temps after starting the run and reaching (what seemed like a max temp) The idle temp is somewhere in the 40-45 degree range, the medium load (15 chrome tabs, a youtube video, Minecraft open) is about 60-65 degrees. And yeah, the case is awful in terms of airflow, I'll get something...

    [SOLVED] Why did my pc overheat so bad?

    It doesn't usually do this but when I ran Prime95 last night to see if my max temps were ok, it turned out they weren't. It did this after a few minutes of running it and before the temps didn't go over 90°C. I know my case isn't the best for airflow but I have 2 front fans and 1 rear fan on my...
