    Question Trouble with freesync

    it was off by default, for some additional information, freesync works perfectly and stays on while playing tarkov, which has a max frame rate of 120, however, when I restrict any other game to 120, it dosnt help. It shouldnt matter, because the freesync range is 48-144.

    Question r5 3000 stock fan problems

    I was wondering if anyone else was having issues with the fan that comeswith the r5 3600 and how ungodly loud it is, I messed with the smart fan settings in the bios but it still goes up and down over and over again.

    [SOLVED] Good SSD for a GB AB350 motherboard

    I have a ryzen 5 1500x, a gtx 1070 and 16gb of ram, im looking to get one last upgrade and that's an ssd, I have a rather poor understanding of the types but I do understand that sata ssds are slower and ssds that plug directly into the mobo are faster. I would prefer a ssd that plugs into the...

    this might be an insulting question but you did plug your monitor cable into the gpu and not the mother board right?

    Question Good ram for my system (upgrading to 16gb)

    thanks for the answer, i found the ripjaw sticks i think im gonna get but apparently ryzen 5 1500xs cant clock to 3000mhz, however i heard that that speed isnt really all that important, should i still consider getting it? its only 79, so its a lot cheaper than the last time i bought ram, so if...

    Question Good ram for my system (upgrading to 16gb)

    I heard that ram is very cheap rn and 8gb really dosnt cut it for most games. Ive also been told to upgrade my ram first, im thinking 16gb is probably good enough so im really just looking to get 2 sticks of 8 but i dont know what type or model of ram would be good enough. My specs are gtx 1070...

    Question Questions about refresh rates

    I have turned vsync on i nvidia panel so i max out at 60 to keep things smoother but im fairly certain i can get consistantly above 60 in most games, sometimes i sacrifice settings but thats worth it to me, so im thinking a gsync 144 hz monitor might be something I actually want. I was mostly...

Most recently I have noticed its very bad in MORDHAU, it works better...
