That's how it appears to me too, just not really a big interest. Performance wise it's somewhere just over a modern Intel Core i3, so I know it won't go for much, especially with AMD selling it's last gen Ryzen processors so cheap. I'd be quite glad to get around $250 for the full build, but...

Hello everyone, I'm in the process of building myself a new desktop, and will soon have no use for my old one. I wanted to see if there would be any interest here for the system, and to see about how much it might be worth. I'm having trouble finding an appropriate price on it as there aren't...

That's not a bad card really. Will be far faster than the HD 5770. The R7 250X was just a rebadged HD 7770, but that still means you jumped ahead two full generations in tech. https://www.pcmag.com/review/328983/amd-radeon-r7-250x It's also a major jump up over the R7 250 that was mentioned...

That is strange how it's spreading. There have been viruses in the past that could infect the firmware on storage devices and cause issues. It's doubtful, but plausible something like that could be happening here. Have you tried formatting one of the drives and installing a new OS? It's worth a...

Sounds like part of the display has been damaged. It's possible whoever you had work on it broke something and either didn't notice or neglected to tell you.

You might double-check where it's connected on the motherboard. You might have accidentally connected the fan to the wrong fan header. Worth a try. It's possible your fan is defective. This is an odd case, but the fan itself is an electrical device and could plausibly overheat and quit working...

It's probably not coil whine then. It's probably noise caused by electromagnetic interference in the headphones. Could be a shielding issue in the headphones or a problem with the laptop itself. I'd test another set of headphones first and test your headphones with a different device to narrow...

Games aren't likely to advance that much. Usually the current game consoles are a strong item to consider as a lot of game are designed to ensure they work on the console. The consoles are 8-cores, but as I think someone else said earlier, they are relatively weak, and most quad-core processors...

More like in the last decade. I don't think anyone except small independent developers design games with a single-core focus. Unless you buy something old, you can't even buy a single-core computer or smartphone anymore. The gaming industry switched to a focus on multi-core game development...

For performance, you might also test with limiting your CPU manually. You can do this by taking these steps: Open Control Panel Select "Hardware and Sound" Select "Power Options" Select "Change plan settings" on whichever power plan you are currently using. Select "Change advanced power...

He isn't in the USA. He's in India, or at least a country that uses Indian Rupees.

I don't know what this is for sure, but doing a little searching for 1960s circuit boards brought me to this page: https://www.oldcalculatormuseum.com/toshbc1411.html This is clearly different than what you have, but there are similarities in the overall look and design, including the lack of...

Sounds good, and np! Let us know how things work out, hopefully if you end up with the 5770 it meets your expectations.

it varies a lot, but often between 10-20KG for an ATX build. I wouldn't worry about it. Oak is strong.

I'd hold off on upgrading your CPU for now. You would need to upgrade your motherboard as well, and that would probably force you into a DDR4 system that will cost even more. Your CPU will hold back your GPU some, but I don't think it's a serious restriction on you at the moment. I'd suggest...
