SATA cables, power cables hooked up correctly on your SSD/HDD? Install motherboard drivers? The disk that comes with the bored. Setup boot menus in BIOS. The one drive that has your windows, set that as bootable device

Yeah dude. Your HDD is just getting old. My 1tb, I've had it for years, it's been slowing down a lot. Games like PUBG, Counter Strike, Fortnite, it all takes forever too load. So then I put them on a different HDD or SSD, this fixed my problem. Just buy a SSD, like a Samsung 860 EVO 500GB...

Bottle Kneck. That I5 too slow for the goody 1080 TI. Just watch in task manager, if your CPU or at least one CPU core gets up to 100%, your GPU is too fast for the CPU. This would call for an upgrade on the CPU. My I7 5820K sometimes bottle knecks on my SLI 980 TI setup. Rarely though. I...

Thanks, I'll try it, I've had it happen before, but after so many restarts days and days later, it usually pops up. I don't doubt anything, I'm pretty sure this will work.

If it still games the same, it's fine. I mean, possibly life has shorted a little, but eh, still good for a few years. Just don't save for startup, or else you're really done

Hello! How much do you want to spend? Because nowadays Minecraft is CPU heavy, so I would recommend to change the CPU. You're running integrated graphics, which is coming from the CPU. Honestly, there are a lot of ways to approach this. I'll start from easiest to hardest. 1- You could...

Alrighty, I don't know what's going on. I have a 500GB HDD, it shows up in BIOS, but it won't show up in "This PC" It has files on it. But after I reinstalled windows, it doesn't show up anymore. Any ideas how to make it visible? It shows in BIOS, so it's working, but it doesn't show in...

Did you put the thermal paste on correctly? Like no air bubbles. Put enough on? Compound correctly?

Alright. My Adata 120GB SSD failed me yesterday. It stopped working. Went to best buy today to get a Samsung 860 Evo SSD. Installed windows, restarted and everything was handy dandy working. Installed my Nvidia drivers, other drivers for devices and teamspeak, steam, all that fun stuff...

It might be optimization. I know stellaris had that problem, then an update came out to fix that problem. I'd just start closing unnecessary programs. But that'll help like 1% basically. That's what it feels like. You can also open task manager, and the menu where you can see the CPU, Ram...

I tried it in another computer. And if I play online flash games, I'd use a vm personally. But yeah. It's dead

Maybe the I5 is bottlenecking. Perhaps a background program could be taking one of your cores to 100% causing fps drop. If your CPU can't keep up, then it'll slow down your GPU. Just watch your CPU cores in task manager. I've had a similar problem. My I7 5820k was bottleknecking my 980ti...

I've tried switching them around. I've left my bad card on top, I got lazy and just made my good GPU the one to be used in games. The heat doesn't change if I switch them
