Wicked, thanks. I'll be checking these things out. Though... would you happen to know why the temps would go up at random and insta-trigger the fans full force when all I do is open a single window of Chrome, or even more, if there's zero running and the computer is just sitting there? That's...

I have a custom built PC but honestly know little about it. Recently it's been whirring very loudly for little to no reason, and I'm afraid for its life. I've had it for almost 7 years, but I feel as if I've kept the components up-to-date enough. It will whir when I game (ex games; World of...

I've got an issue with my Razer Kiyo webcam (the only webcam I have for my desktop PC; it has no built-in cam) not functioning with Zoom, which I need to use for work meetings. I've done all the troubleshooting I know how to. When I open the Zoom app (using Windows 10), and even when I use Zoom...

Did you manage to find a solution for your issue, or still waiting to see on the new PSU?

I ended up replacing the PSU with what was recommended (SeaSonic FOCUS Plus Gold 650 W 80+ Gold Certified), as well as updated my AMD Radeon to its latest driver. Problem is still persisting. Was working okay, then I didn’t do anything but type in another website into the Chrome browser while a...

Man, never would have thought to look up the quality of PSU I’ve got because I’ve had it for so long— thank you for that suggestion, I most definitely will replace. As for my CPU, it’s the 3770. Does upgrading the graphics card software usually make a big difference in performance? May be an...

I've seen a few similar threads around here about this, but it looked to me like it could be dependent on your specific setup, so I thought I'd detail mine in the case I may miss something. Here are my computer's specs: Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit Processor: i7-3570k 3.4GHz Quad Core...
