I see no reason to upgrade at all unless you feel like games are too laggy or something. In this case I'd upgrade the CPU first given your configuration. If you want to go all out and futureproof I'd switch to AM5, if not an i5 11600k would be quite a healthy upgrade. Then the GPU could be...

I would try to uninstall the RGB software from control pannel. I would check for any RGB related options in the BIOS. I would uninstall any MSI app and reinstall them if you need them, otherwise just live without them. I would reinstall every driver. If none of that solves it I would reinstall...

If this were my rig, I'd obviously upgrade the CPU/platform first. Since you're already on AM4 though, you might as well just upgrade the CPU to a Ryzen 7 5800X3D. I think your motherboard has beefy enough VRMs to handle this. Unless you really need the features of a higher end chipset such as...

fully depends on whether you don't mind spending the 2500 dollars for max performance and aesthetics or if you are looking to spend the least amount possible. If you want to go all out on this upgrade, I would absolutely go for AM5, and definitely get a new graphics card. Since I do not know...

This system most likely has quite a CPU bottleneck, so for sub 200 dollars I'd go with an AMD Ryzen 5 4500 and a Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite board. The Ryzen 5 4500 is a pretty powerful CPU and incredible for the price, and thanks to the beefy for the price motherboard, if one day you want to put...

Can I ask what you actually do on your PC? If all you do is basic tasks, I would certainly not waste money on something this powerful. I would most likely go LGA1700 too, because AM5 is just too expensive for this type of build, and AM4 is not outdated but definitely not going to get any new...

[UPDATE] In the Windows 10 1703 install Lenovo Recovery gives you, directly on local disk, there is a folder called drivers that contains absolutely all the required drivers for the tablet (there are a lot of them that Windows does not find for you and anything from Lenovo website appeared to...

But I watch YouTube in 720P (display is 1280x800), so most of the time it works but it's not rare that I have to end stuff. Actually my Core 2 Duo gets even more affected by that because it has half the amount of cores and threads. But I'd do anything to keep my vintage looking Dell Inspiron...

It won't let me install Windows 11, because of it only having 64GB of storage, it thinks I am running Windows off of a flash drive. But I am on the clone which is on a 240GB SSD. I'll extend the partition, update, delete Windows.old and then shrink the partition back! I already have the...

Office apps aren't there but the click to run thing likes to run in the background. Of course I disabled Cortana, and of course I got no third party AV, I am not a bank I don't need that. It would slow down my computer much more than it would help (considering it wouldn't help at all XD) That's...

Yes, I came on the forum a little desperate, I already wanted Windows 11 but I was more worried about getting something that isn't obsolete. Then I had an idea. But now I'd like some help to make Windows as light as possible, I don't want stuff such as office or onedrive or anything to suddently...

I know but I guess too many people complained. And no matter how recent it is, they released it. And maybe that key has always been a working bypass but was just not public before! And even back then, they were saying you are doing it at your own risk but again there's no need to hack the...

Don't act like you didn't get my point, I am just using a workaround so it lets me install, then it all works out of the box! Also you didn't respond to like 90% of my message. Anyway, Windows 11's gonna work just fine, I'd recommend this workaround to anyone as it doesn't cause any...

I am telling you my Core 2 Duo T9300 was not able to play 720P 60 FPS YouTube and after updating to Windows 11 it works. I'm just using a workaround to get it installed, when done no patches or modifications are required, it works very well out of the box and if I run into issues I can guarantee...

I don't know what to say to this except that a moderator on a hardware forum should know that this is all <Mod Edit>! The OS supports all the CPUs Windows 10 did, including Core 2 Duos as I said before, and Windows 11 is even better for them than Windows 10 is!
