I know most hardware troubleshooting methods start with testing another CPU/PSU/RAM sticks etc to determine what's the problem, but I do not have another CPU laying around. Is there another way to test if it's my CPU solely? Also, if does turn out to be a CPU bottleneck, would you mind pointing...

Just about a month ago I had purchased a brand new Alienware Aurora R11 with the following specs: Dell OEM 2080 Super i7-10700f 16GB Hyperfury RAM I feel like there is something limiting my GPU power here. I've seen many different benchmarks with the 2080 Super and it just doesn't compare. I...

This computer is about a week old, nothing else on here besides Steam, iCue, Spotify, AB, and a few steam games. I don't think it's anything to do with outdated or tinkered with Windows. Is there a well to tell without opening the case?

I'm actually running most games at 1440p, but sometimes for instance in Apex Legends I downscale to 1080p on high settings. I managed to do a couple things and run it a bit more stable FPS wise. I have RTSS running monitoring my GPU (Temp, %, and vram usage) and CPU (Temp and usage). My GPU...

Just a few days ago I have recently bought an Alienware R11 desktop. 16GB RAM, Overclocked (+145,+1500 via AB) RTX 2080S, and an i7-10700F CPU. I did a userbenchmark and I'm scoring pretty well, usually the top 30% of my exact setup statistics. But I feel like something is wrong and hindering...

I'm not super technical but I recently purchased an Alienware R11 desktop setup that has a 2080S in it. I'm having some slight issues with it underperforming, even with hours of tuning etc. I would probably just go for a 30xx series. They seem less of a hastle.

Haha sounds good.

Sounds good. I will be definitely looking into an SSD because I miss having one. You're right, huge difference; I haven't used a standard HDD in a very long time so I forgot how much different it was lol. Now how do I check if i'm able to potentially use both an HDD and an SSD. I'm looking at...

I would say just like someone else said, a Corsair Void Pro RGB. Awesome feeling, never got uncomfortable, extremely good mic, unique and solid design, and one of the best wireless headsets I think you can get, let alone the fact they are only around ~$100.

Is there any reason for me to doubt that kit will be compatible with my motherboard?

Ah, I see what you're saying. So I should upgrade to 16GB first with a different set of RAM to increase my GPU and CPU efficiency? How do I know which sticks of RAM are compatible? Or are they generally universal? Is that also the reason why i'm seeing barely any performance increase after...

Is there any way to change out my power supply for one that has a little more power coming through it? If so, what would be a reasonable upgrade? I'm not looking at turning this into some insane $3000 sleeper machine, just something a little more than what it is. And yes about your statement...

This here is the link to what you had asked for: View: https://imgur.com/a/zc4btq0 I tried to look up the numbers and such on the photo of the motherboard, couldn't find anything. From my basic understanding from reading the label is that the power supply is like 300 something? It says must...

Hey everyone my name is Mike and I recently got an HP Pavilion gaming desktop that comes with a GTX 1650, Ryzen 5 3500, 8GB of RAM, and a 1TB hard drive. The computer itself isn't bad, it's pretty decent. I can run most of my games on medium to high without many issues (ROBLOX, CS:GO, Planetside...
