Alrighty, thank you so much. I feared it might have been something worse.

Ok, I'll see to get it done. Until then, I can continue using the PC without any fears of something breaking or shorting?

Hi everyone, I was replacing a non-working motherboard and noticed this piece hanging from the SSD SATA port. This is the second one that fell out and I can't identify it nor do I know if it's a crucial part for the SSD to work properly. I do know where it's missing from, but don't know if it...

It is not the cable that determines the version but the piece of hardware. For example, my GPU supports 144Hz with HDMI 2.1 and I can use a 5$ HDMI cable or an 50$ HDMI cable and there isn't going to be any visible difference at all. You need to check your monitors' video connectors' version to...

I know that I'm very late, but I just want to try and help you out. I have this issue on my PC too. The flickering/shimmering textures can't be seen too good because of washed out colors of YouTube videos. Try getting a Ryzen CPU. Here is a forum thread of people having the same issue and some...

Hi, I'm currently using DP and running at 144Hz 1080p. I'm thinking about switching to Ryzen and getting an AM4 board but only a couple of expensive AM4 boards have a DP port. According to Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI#Version_comparison The second chat) HDMI 2.0b should be...

Hello, Ever since I've built my PC the GPU is making these revving noises. I've checked through the case window and the GPU fans are turning on and off repeatedly even when idle. They do this for 5-6 times and then go off and the noise is no more. This happens periodically even while I'm...

What's the MOBO's model?

If you still have the motherboard/case manual - use it. The case USB cables usually are stored somewhere in the front when the case is opened up. Basically, the USB cables go into the USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 slots on the motherboard. Try to locate them before connecting the cables.

You can buy a used motherboard BUT you have to be 100% sure that nothing is damaged. Especially, the motherboard pins shouldn't be bent. The best would be just to get some cash together and buy a brand new one.
