    [SOLVED] Does PSU quality really matter to a light user?

    When I compare, I mean across models of REPUTABLE brands like FSP or Seasonic.

Zero gaming. Zero OC.

    [SOLVED] Reliable CPU Benchmark site that compares laptops vs mobile vs desktop CPUs?

    Question Frustrating bug that keeps turning on/off when booting!

    This video explains it best - View: https://youtu.be/MIn3hdAAuko Sometimes when booting up, it simply refuses to start.. and just keep going in this loop infinitely. Other times it works flawlessly and boots in 15s. However, the consistent problem with it is after going to "Sleep" mode, it...

    Chances of motherboard fault if no display initialized?

    This is the first time I have changed almost all components in my PC and still unable to find the culprit. What happens is that at times, intermittently, when booting up, the display does not initialize at all (monitor shows red light, not blue). However I know it boots successfully to desktop...

    USB-C hard drive dock with NO power adapter required?

    i thought only the wattage matters. as long as there are sufficient watts, it will run properly (not the same as comparing 110v vs 220v in different countries)
