I have had my HP Spectre x360 for a couple years now, and for a long time there has been this thing in the top left of my screen. It does not impede regular use, and you can't even see it from some angles. It's just one of those things that annoys you just from the knowledge of it being there...

I got a new laptop, and as I was browsing and watching videos, I noticed that every so often my internet would drop out and say "connected, no internet." This problem would resolve itself if I waited long enough or if I disconnected and reconnected to the modem. Is this a laptop problem or just...

I'm currently in the market for a new desk, with the width being around 60"-66", preferably with a wood finish. Any recommendations?

Never mind, messed with a few other things, and the problem no longer occurs. The resolution does drop when I close the lid, but I'll take that over having to restart the PC. Thank you!

Have you tried checking in the BIOS settings? Those can be changed after upgrading hardware.

Maybe a DOA? I would recommend sending it back for another one if you can, there's a lot of these kinds of problems in this industry.

It's really up to you. If you have enough time and you consider the wait to be worth the added performance then go for it. But if you are eager to complete your pc, you have a deadline, or you weigh things and don't think it's worth it then just go for the 970. Truthfully, there's not really...

There is always the possibility that you got a bad part or another one of your parts is out of commission. I would try the process of elimination and try to switch out the hard drive if possible, if not you might want to see if the video card failed. There are many ways to go about this, but one...

Well, that's disheartening to say the least.
