That's what I was thinking, but thought someone on here might know of a better way. I know it's light damage, it's just the aesthetics I care about. Haven't even had it that long.

Hi, So thanks to this virus apocalypse we're in, I had to get a family member to send my PC over to me via courier as I'm now stuck outside of my usual home for what will probably be months. It was lightly damaged in transit, with a few scratches/dents on the top of the case (NZXT H500), and it...

Hey, would the Noctua NH-U12S be any good in terms of noise and easy-ish installation? The D15 looks fine, except I don't love how it partially covers the RAM.

You are talking complete nonsense. Your point makes no sense. There's a stark difference between playing a game like Doom Eternal (or most shooters in general) at 60Hz vs 144Hz.

I have, didn't make much of a difference. It must be able to turn off, because when I was fiddling with it before, the fan kept stopping completely and starting up repeatedly every few seconds when I just wanted it to be lower.

Hi, so I've been dealing with my PC sounding like a jet engine ever since I got it in September. I'm about 95% sure it's my Ryzen 3700X's stock cooler making all the noise. I've tried to mess with the fan curve to make it so the CPU cooler fan is off when temps are under 60, and yet for some...

OK, cool. Although, will I definitely have to remove the motherboard to do that? If that's the case I honestly might wait until the world is normal again and get somebody to fit it for me, I don't trust myself with that.

Oh yeah sorry, forgot to mention the case. It's an NZXT H500. The colour is just a bonus for me though really, I'm not gonna go through a whole bunch of trouble for it. The quality and price is more important - I don't know how much these things usually cost but I could probably spend up to £80.

Hi, My system is loud as all hell, and I assume it's because I've got a Ryzen 3700X with a stock cooler. If I replaced it, would a complete nub like me be able to do it myself? I've only ever replaced RAM. Specs: RTX 2070 Super Ryzen 3700X + stock cooler Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB...

Hyelloooo?

Hi, I've had a G703 for a few months now and I really like it, apart from two things. 1) Having to charge it with a wire every few days is tiresome, and 2) the middle click is way too stiff, to the point where I usually remap it in games. I can't quickly click it in the heat of the moment at...

Hi all, I know most people say you should leave maybe 10-20% of an SSD free to make it last longer (or something). I've got a 512 GB NVMe drive for Windows 10 and apps, and a 1TB SSD with literally nothing but games on it. The NVMe isn't even close to being full, while at the moment I've only...

OK, so on balanced and with pretty much nothing running, just sitting there on the desktop, it fluctuates from about 2.64-3.99GHz. With Chrome, Discord and Steam running (no games), it goes from 3.60-4.17GHz.

Uh... so does this mean it's OC'd? I only have Chrome with a few tabs, Discord and Steam (no games) running right now... it fluctuates between 3.70-ish GHz to about 4.22. It's absurdly late here but I'll take a look at the BIOS in the morning too.

I see. I always hear good things about EVGA, yeah. Might go with them next time. I don't know the first thing about overclocking CPUs though honestly, this is the first desktop I've ever even owned. How would I go about checking that? My CPU is loud as all hell even while browsing, but I...
