I recently bought a TP-Link PLC connection to connect my pc via LAN to the router, as WiFi coverage isn't that good on my room. However recently my powerline connector has been running at lower than 20% of it's speed (I'm getting about 7-8 Mbps download and 1-1.5 Mbps upload on a 48-49.5 Mbps...

So my aunt accidentally bought a two 2x4GB kits of ram (exactly the same kits) instead of 2x8GB for her new build and her PC wouldn't post with all DIMMs plugged in. All in all, she ended up giving it to me, and buying a 2x8GB kit for herself. So I plugged in all of the DIMMs and booted up my...

I had planned to build a 400 euro Ryzen 3 2200G while saving up money for a GPU (RX 580). I just received the GPU (after 6 months of using the onboard graphics) and I'm wondering wheter turning off the Onboard Vega Graphics make any difference , other than freeing up the RAM it used to occupy...

I didn't think that the overclocking was unstable as I run both Cinebench CPU and OpenGL benchmarks,an AIDA 64 stress test and played multiple games and didnt see a single error or blue screen I hadn't experienced before it. I was running into major problems as the X-AMP was set way too low...

I don't get a single graphics signal (tried with HDMI using a converter from VGA to HDMI and DVI-D). Thereby I can do nothing. I'll try reflyashing the BIOS with Q-Flash when I have time

So I overclocked my brand new R3 2200G at 3.75 GhZ and the graphics at 1.4 GhZ ,a pretty mild overclock with the stock cooler, (as I've seen many people go as far as 3.9 GhZ on and 1.65 GhZ on the graphics). I was gaming and ,out of the blue, got a blue screen ,for a system task I can not...

Tbh going red team is the best solution. The R3 2200G gives more than enough performance while staying within budget, and better ugradeability, as the Zen 2 (aka Ryzen X 3xxx) are expected to run on the same chipset and support up to 16 cores (RZ 3700X), not to mention the fact that you can...

Thats what I was thinking ,but at the end I thought it would be a good idea to play safe and remove the CPU, only to see that I have no spare thermal compound. Yet I am way too curious about how the overclock could have fried the vega chip after 2 weeks of stability, while I went way too soft at...

So my brand new Ryzen 3 2200G rig got a bluescreen (a common problem I've been experiencing throughout the last 2 weeks) and after that it will either boot right away or boot after 2-3 tries, with the EZ Debug LED CPU lit. It still boots up with no signal to the screen. Is the CPU or the...

Already done. Same problems continue to apper, with another plot twist. Now the PC sometimes won't boot or boot after 2/3 tries, with the cpu ez debug led shining but system still boots.

Actually, yes. The hard drive was not formatted properly and had to do a complet format from my best friend's pc using AOMEI Partition Manager.

So I had an old Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 and GT8600 rig and decided it was time to build a new rig, as I'm into computing and gaming. Long story short, I built a budget Ryzen 3 2200G and I'm noticing that many apps constantly crash or stop responding, in adition to HUGE boot times. I'm wondering...
