    [SOLVED] Just got two more monitors. Can't enable Nvidia surround for a triple monitor setup.

    Only two monitors show up. The third one is unchecked, saying "only two monitors can be selected". See screenshot. I saw on some other forums that's it's a driver issue but I can't figure out which driver to use. Images

    Network Adapter Setup

    Hey all. I just moved into a new house and need a hard wired network on the second floor. I have one wire coming up to one of the rooms on the second floor and it has a fixed outlet. I don't have an access point to extend wired-wired but have a switch so I set it up and got the network working...

    Asus VG248QE OUT OF RANGE?

    Connected using HDMI or DisplayPort? Refresh Rate? Audio connected directly to PC or through monitor? You are probably using an HDMI which doesn't support high refresh rates. Buy a DisplayPort (DP) cable.

    My PC is restarting randomly for past few months no matter its idle or is in use on WINDOWS 10.

    After every restart (or after a few restarts) does the time on the computer changes randomly? You might want to change the CMOS battery (3V button sized) on the motherboard.

    GTA 5 Shuttering/Lagging on Good Laptop

    I used to get this back when GTA 5 was fun and had to do a lot of digging around to fix this issue. My PC was more than capable of playing GTA 5 at max setting so I was sure it's a software problem. What fixed the problem for me was turning off any fps counters like the one in steam or in...

    Most efficient way of cleaning up/merging hard drives

    Hey all, I am what one would call a data hoarder just because I am a content creator (hobby) and I like to keep my old files just in case I need them in the future. I have a total of 5 hard drives attached (facepalm) out of which, one is a 1Tb SSD for OS and important softwares like Adobe CC...

    Ryzen 3 2200g with updated mobo wont boot

    I actually remember doing the same. My PC wouldn't start because I had applied a bit too much thermal paste. Try cleaning it off and applying very little (half the size of a pea) amount of thermal paste right in the middle. You don't have to spread it. The pressure from the heat plates will do...

    Ryzen 3 2200g with updated mobo wont boot

    Could be a faulty PSU or even the processor though the chances of that are slim. Your system should boot up even if the RAM is installed incorrectly, giving you beep sounds but I would double check and install the ram modules in a different slot. Start off with a single module (if you have...

    One EVGA GTX 1080 and Two EVGA GTX 1050 TI's, can I run Three Samsung C32HG70

    Just to let you know, the monitor you specified runs at 2560 x 1440 resolution or 2k res. It's not 4k. And buy a 1080Ti.

    Video Card Upgrade

    You can choose to get immediate benefit or invest in the long term. The performance gain going from GTX 1060 to 1070 is quite significant but so is the price increase. So all of this depends on your budget. Not long from now, you'll have to upgrade your rig. I would recommend saving up and...
