Unfortunately Valorant does not allow any overlaying FPS counter software due to its anticheat software. So I can't say exactly in Valorant. I did test Rust with MSI Afterburner. No graphic changes: Single channel @3400Mhz - 27.1FPS on average Dual channel @ 3400Mhz - 40FPS on average Dual...

Cheers mate. I decided to OC after all. Managed to bring the RAM up to 3600Mhz and funny enough, there's definitely a performance increase, in Valorant at least. I was getting around 120-180FPS, never seeing the counter go past 200. Now it stays past 200 a good bit. So just for context, the...

Overclocking Kingston ValueRAM 32GB (16GBx2) KVR32S22D8/16 SO-DIMM (laptop RAM) Hey guys, I'm going through some thinking right now, regarding my mini PC build. I'm running on 2 x 16GB SO-DIMMs stock @3200Mhz CL22 but overclocked to 3400Mhz. I have not touched voltages or anything, just the...

Ok. So I think I found the problem. The water pump seems faulty. I tried switching between all chassis / cpu fan headers. All results are the same. High temps. I'm assuming all headers on the mobo can't be all faulty especially considering I bought this cpu and mobo a fe months ago and it all...

I'm not gonna recommend what I think is better but will answer your question with what I think might suit you. Your processor will fit a Z390 mobo. Any Z motherboard will allow overclocking so no stress there. That's why Z chipset mobos are sold as premium as they have that feature. The...

Cheers mate. The first 2 don't apply. The pump might actually be the issue. These temps are only like that when I start the PC first time and not every time. Giving it a few minutes or changing the pump speed solves the temp. I mean, I can even start Prime95 and let it run for 1h and the temps...

FYI, K in Intel means unlocked/overclockable. Buying it without a Z mobo is like buying an S-Klasse Mercedes with a 1.6l engine. Buy the cheapest Z mobo out there, you'll do much better. CPUs can stay at 100%, i mean that's what's there for. Some games can do that but not constantly, only when...

I've the A2000 as my main and my old Samsung 840 for storage(which used to be my main). Obviously the difference is huge (nvme vs sata ssd). Look, in my 15years of working/dealing with computers, I can honestly say, most expensive isn't always the best. I mean, I could buy the most expensive...

It's not the graphic card drivers I'm on about but the mouse driver/software. Have a look in your Windows Control Panel and see if you've got previous mouse drivers/software still installed, if so, uninstall. Also, uninstall the current mouse's driver/software that came with it. Test a game and...

Kingston A2000 ⏫ This! This is a machine of an SSD (M.2 NVME). No m.2 slot? Kingston A400 Both cheap with great performance!

This one is odd indeed. Have you drivers installed? If so, have you uninstalled to see if any difference? Also, tell me this, are your games running smooth, looking past the mouse issue? I'm asking as a 1060 can struggle to perform at 240hz. But yeah, give that mouse driver an uninstall and...

Cheers mate. Have you done a BIOS update recently? Check and see what's the latest BIOS version available and compare to yours.

Cheers mate. Have you tried toggling on? My on-screen is set to Alt+C. See what yours is set on. This will toggle it to appear / disappear

Cheers mate. Is this only affecting the mouse or the general feel of the computer itself?

Hello sir, I'm sure it is not impossible. And to prove it, please check this actual photo of my BIOS. I do trust BIOS over all the others. Also, Ryzen Master was showing the same temps. The highest, 109ºC! :D Also, I did have my hand on the CPU cooler hoses going from the pump to the radiator...
