    [SOLVED] Upgrade CPU

    Hopefully devs see that more people are going to be stuck with aging GPU's and that'll motivate them to optimize games.... I know it won't but its a nice thought.

    [SOLVED] Most of my games are lagging/Micro Stuttering, will an SSD help?

    That small SSD is certainly suspect to me, 240gb is as small as I would go for a boot drive these days. Verify the health of your HDD with crystaldiskmark or some other software. I doubt your PSU is at fault, but i suppose its possible

    Question Opinions on Vertical Mice?

    wrist rest might help, vertical mouse might help. I use a vertical mouse for work at I don't really think about it, granted I've never had any hand issue so far either way. Good that you're seeing a doctor, I imagine they'll probably suggest the same thing we did although "issues" is quite a...

    [SOLVED] Is it ok to bend my sata power cable like this?

    eh its fine. Obviously sharp bends have to potential to eventually damage any cable/plug, but modern PSU's are pretty sturdy. You've already installed it, I wouldn't worry about it too much as long as the pressure isn't going to make either of those plugs wiggle loose.

    [SOLVED] Zen Athlons faster than Ryzen 3 1200?

    Better single core performance on paper... dual cores are certainly not something worth looking at if you're doing anything above web browsing though. I honestly would ignore quad cores that don't have hyperthreading as well.

    [SOLVED] High End build keeps bluescreening while playing games. Possibly CPU?

    I would point fingers at the motherboard. Your CPU temps are quite high but as far as I understand are within intels specs. I do see that other users have noted instability related to temps though. You should clear your CMOS. Its easy and pretty much risk free. Just unplug your computer...
