    Question Worth it to upgrade?

    Sorry, I upgraded from a 4gb gtx 770, to an 8gb gtx 1070 turbo. Yeah so far I haven't had a big enough reason to upgrade too much stuff, most games i play run at 1080 60fps at high to ultra texture settings. But I figured with a couple newer games/pc ports im interested in coming out, it might...

    Question Worth it to upgrade?

    Hey everybody, with a few games I'm interested in just having been announced recently, I wanted to know if its worth it to upgrade my cpu (just upgraded my graphic card). I built my pc a few years ago and have had no issues with my current cpu, an Intel i5 4670, but I've been considering if it's...

    Computer freezes after booting, and when scanning for hardware changes

    I can't fully confirm, but I'm having the same issue. Have you recently added any new hardware? This only started happening for me when I installed a new hdd. The issue is potentially with where the new hardware was with the sata ports on the motherboard, I read one person saying they switched...

    Hard drive issue (not sure where to ask)

    I'll try to describe this the best that I can. I have a couple hard drives in my PC. The last time I had installed a new HDD, I took the power supply from my DVD drive (since I don't use it much) to use for the new HDD. Yesterday I received a new power supply (4 pin molex to Sata converter)...

    Stuck with Reboot and Select proper Boot device

    I've been helping a friend build a new PC and now, among the many issues I've encountered, I'm stuck with "Reboot and Select proper Boot device" First off we had issues where the system would turn itself off if there was even the slightest bump to the case, removing the graphics card and making...

    New PC turns on then right back off

    No, the same blue light on the motherboard turned on (the green power button turned off) and stayed solid blue until I stopped pressing the button (stayed on as long as I held the button), then the green power icon came back on. The PC still doesn't turn on though, I see a fan start to spin then...

    New PC turns on then right back off

    I was building a new PC for a friend, we had it on for a while installing the OS and setting everything up, we took a break for the night and in the morning the PC would not turn on. What happens is, it starts to turn on, then turns right back off, it never makes it to the loading OS process...

    Custom built PC keeps turning off...
