I understand if no one feels the need to answer such an open-ended question like this, I feel pretty dumb for asking. Namely WoW, PUBG, and recent releases all run like crap, no matter how low I set everything. Only games I get steady 30 fps or higher are Rocket League, CSGO, and overwatch. I...

So to start off, my computer randomly shut off a few nights ago. Every time I turn it back on after recycling the power it stays on for a few seconds then turns back off, hitting the power again makes it flicker on/off, again and it does nothing. Like I said I can get it to turn on for a few...

A friend thought he'd be hilarious and peg me with a water balloon while I was sitting at my desk. Water got into my computer and now (through testing) my graphics card isn't allowing my computer to start. When I press the power button the system (lights, fans, including gpu) will flicker on...

Friends thought they'd be funny and long story short they threw a couple water balloons at me and some of it splashed on to my computer. It immediately shut off and wouldn't turn back on. The only two things I know for sure: 1. It's either the motherboard or the psu because that's where the...

To start off I'll list specs to see if someone can spot an immediate problem: -Windows 7 Home SP1 64 -Sandisk Ultra II 500gb -Geforce GTX 1080 -AMD FX-6300 -ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0 The best way I can describe the problem is that anything you would download off of Windows Update will not...

Ohhh so I need the LAN driver. Sorry, I'm dumb as shit. Thank you.

That's a little vague, it says there are 101 drivers available for it. I'd rather be sure of what I need since I live in BFE and have to drive 20 mins to a friend's house to borrow his computer.

Morning, I bought a prebuilt PC that came with an OS preloaded but the mobo died and I had to get a new model. This being the case I had to buy an OS (Windows 7 Home 64). I got it off ebay so ofc it came with no framework disk meaning it does not have the NETWORK ADAPTER. My question is what...

Sorry, always forget. Asus m5a99fx pro r2.0 Amd fx 6100 MSI gtx 970 ADATA 256 gb Corsair 600w

A couple days ago I heard a slight pop and I lost video and audio on my rig which made it seem like it had completely shut off. I describe it like this because I looked down and my computer still appeared to be running (lights/fan sounds). I restarted it and it continued running as such; lights...

Thanks guys. Sorry to impose further and take advantage of your knowledge but could you recommend the best wattage for my setup

Problem being that I live in bfe and I'm the only one that I know that doesn't use solely console or some integrated from 2002. To be sure would it be unlikely that it's the CPU? I looked at it when I hooked up the new mobo and there was no visible damage.

I don't. Could that really be it considering it turns on?

Sorry, specs Gpu - MSI gtx 970 CPU - visha 6100 6 core Mobo - m9a99fx pro Psu - thermaltake 700 bronze Ssd - 256 gba data

So my computer made a slight pop sound and my monitor no longer picked up a signal and the music stopped, so I know it went down. Looked at my rig and it appeared to still be running (lights, sound) so I restarted it and it would not boot (No visual, no audio) but was clearly on. I replaced...
