My chassis is the Thermaltake Versa J21 (https://www.pccasegear.com/products/42416/thermaltake-versa-j21-tg-edition-mid-tower-chassis ) and my aftermarket cooler (which I assume means CPU cooler) is the CoolerMaster Hyper T4...

Perhaps this isn't the best category to ask this in, but I'm thinking of purchasing an MSI Z390-A Pro Motherboard to go with the rest of my pc components and I'm not certain it will be compatible. The reason I'm getting a new motherboard is because my last was incompatible and I didn't realise...

Sorry, I'm new to this kind of stuff. My specs are as follows: CPU - Intel i5 9600k GPU - AMD Radeon RX 580 Armor OC 8gb RAM - 1 stick of Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3600mhz 8gb Mobo - ASRock B365 Pro4 PSU - Cooler Master MWE White 650W HDD - Seagate Barracuda 1TB

I encountered the strangest/most infuriating thing today. When I turn my PC on, nothing displays. I had this issue when I built my PC, but I fixed it. The problem back then was that my Mobo wasn't compatible with my RAM. I fixed this by using only one stick of the two that I had, but today it...

So, here's my current situation. I recently got a new PC and I'm using the HDD from my old PC (the HDD isn't that old, only a few months) which has my OS on it. I also got an SSD so that I could put Windows onto it for faster load times. Problem is, I have no idea how to get an OS onto my SSD...

Don't worry about it, I figured it out. I got a new sound card that I ordered a while ago and now I use one for PC audio and PC mic audio and the other is plugged into my controller via 3.5mm headphone jack cable. Thanks for offering the help though. :)

What I'm trying to achieve is to be able to talk on Discord and listen to other people on my PC and also hear game audio from my PS4.

Only issue with that is my laptop doesn't have a line in port. It has one 3.5mm jack with an image of a headset (with mic) next to it. Maybe I could get a cord that goes from line in to regular 3.5mm?

I want to connect a sound card to my laptop with headphone and mic audio. I also want to connect a male 3.5mm jack to male 3.5mm jack from my PS4 controller into the laptop so that I can get audio through the same headphones I already have plugged in, and then listen to PS4 audio and whatever my...

I was looking at purchasing Windows 10 or 7 but was shocked when I saw the prices. Is there any way I can get them for free?

Well, fortunately, I used a different hdd to store most of my programs and files, so I think it should be all good to replace now.

So I need to get all important files/folders off of it right now because it's absolutely stuffed and I need to get a new one. Can I somehow get my OS from it?

Ok, now it's speeding up again... now I'm just confused.

I have realised that my pc is now a lot slower, and apps are starting to not respond. Is this something to do with the hard drive?
