Hello, I've been having trouble activating Windows 10 on my NEW machine. The thing is, I had a DIGITAL license (upgrading from Win7 to Win10 on my old computer), but I didn't create a Microsoft account, so my original copy of Windows isn't linked. Is there anything I can do to activate my...

Hey all, since I built a new PC, I've been having trouble with my webcam. Thing is, when I connect it, Windows 10 detects it, Skype detects it too and even other third party apps. When I go to the Device Manager it says I have the latest drivers. When I try to use it, all I get is a WHITE...

Hey all, when I try to launch Photoshop CS6 I get these 2 errors: https://imgur.com/a/EiBHs7Q I've used the same version before with no problems, but won't work after I reinstalled my Windows 10. I need to use the software ASAP so if you have any idea what the problem could be, I'd be very...

They are connected properly, it's not that. Everytime I connect the speakers to the front panel, all I hear is a buzzing sound.

Hey. I recently built my first PC and it's working great, aside from my front panel audio. So when I was building it, I saw I had an HD Audio/AC 97 cable coming from the top of the case. My motherboard (ASRock H370 Pro4) has an HD Audio port. So I connected the HD Audio cable and my back panel...

Mobo: ASRock H370 Pro4 CPU: i5-8400 GPU: GTX 1060 6GB RAM: Hyper X Fury 8GB 2666MHz (will add one more later) PSU: !be quiet System Power 8 600W

The first breath of the PC felt like a new life was born. Finishing up Windows installation right now. Cheers to you for all the help, man!

It's all done. Everything is connected, cable management is a mess but I fit the cables somehow. All I gotta do now is try to power it up, go into bios, make it boot fromd DVD and install windows. I am a bit afraid of booting it up tho, I really don't want to burn some part. Hope everything goes...

Currently building it, already connected the cables provided from my case and now connecting the PSU. I got the 24pin done, but now I have to connect one 8pin (upper left corner of the mobo). So my mobo manual calls it 8pin ATX 12V. And my PSU has 2x4pin similar cable, but is named CPU. I...

You've been VERY helpful, I am grateful for all. I will see but I'm probably getting the 8400 in a few days. Can't wait to start building it and knowing that I have someone willing to help me if I get stuck somewhere is a big relief. Thank you!

Thank you! Once I get my new parts I might play with it a bit just for learning purposes. I'm more worried about building the PC more than overclocking it. The only part I've ever changed is GPU. I saw Bitwit's detailed guide on how to build a PC and I'm gonna follow whatever he does. Hopefully...

I would give it a try, but a thing to consider is my current PSU. I can't really trust it. It's a $20 chinese crap PSU which came with the case. I can't even find information about it online. It says that it's 600W, but I doubt that. Together with the GPU, I got a new PSU (!be quiet System...

I would need the Z370 for the i7-8700K, which makes it sort of difficult to me right now. Also, the 8700K needs a cooler, that doesn't help. I could push my budget a bit and get the 8700 non-k, with the cheapest B360 available and 8GB of RAM. But not sure about that either. My best option now...

Well my APU's characteristics look/sound very promising but I can't really run anything. I even drop FPS on League now. I5-8400's frequency and number of cores is almost no different, but it's hell of a lot better. That's how intel and amd have always been, except for the new Ryzens I guess.
