    Question Upgrade for a 3050

    Hi i have recently come to terms with the fact that my 3050 isn't good enough anymore and i need to replace it but i'm not sure what to replace it with. The 4060 seemed like a obvious choice but i have seen negative things attatched to it so maybe not. I am looking for 1080p gaming with...

    [SOLVED] I5 12400F reaching high 90 degrees when gaming.

    I do have a case fan although it is just the one. The deepcool ak620 is a bit out of the budget for me at the moment could you recomend anything around the £30 mark?

    [SOLVED] I5 12400F reaching high 90 degrees when gaming.

    Hello I recently built a PC and everything is working fine but my CPU is reporting as being 90 to 100 degrees when gaming. I am using MSI afterburner to record this. But when idle it reports it running at 50 - 60 degrees which as far as I can tell is the standard. I am using the stock cooler and...

    [SOLVED] Ram in slots 2 and 4 and yet dual channel not working?

    The latest bios update says improved memory compability. Should I install that? I'll try and swap the ram sticks around when i get home later and see if that fixes it. Yes it's the stock intel cpu cooler as I researched and it said it was more then enough for the CPU although it was a bit loud...

    [SOLVED] Ram in slots 2 and 4 and yet dual channel not working?

    I have a I5 12400F and a pro B660M-A DDR4 motherboard. I was very delicate when putting the CPU in the socket although the fan was a pain putting in could the fan maybe cause the pins to be bent if pushed down too much?

    [SOLVED] Ram in slots 2 and 4 and yet dual channel not working?

    Damn what should I do to fix it? Should I order new ram? I have 4 slots and I can go 3200 MHZ maximum for each stick. My current ram is 2400MHZ would this be a noticable upgrade?

    [SOLVED] Ram in slots 2 and 4 and yet dual channel not working?

    The first stick came as part of a pre-built and so i ordered the exact same ram stick on amazon after i got the pre-built.

    [SOLVED] Ram in slots 2 and 4 and yet dual channel not working?

    Yes they are identical and they worked before I switched to my new PC. I haven't updated it but HWINFO reports it as running in dual channel whereas CPU-Z still doesn't.

    [SOLVED] Ram in slots 2 and 4 and yet dual channel not working?

    Hello I have recently built a new PC and everything works fine other then the RAM not being in dual channel mode even though they are in slots 2 and 4. The reason I know this is because on CPU-Z it is blank when it comes to DC mode. Anyone got any ideas?

    [SOLVED] Upgrade for a i5 9400f?

    Was afraid I was gonna have to get a new motherboard as i'm not exactly the best when it comes to PC building. If I sold my cpu going off ebay prices I could bump up the budget to £300. What CPU and motherboard combo would you recommend? I heard ryzen is better then intel but not sure where to...

    [SOLVED] Upgrade for a i5 9400f?

    Hello i'm looking for a upgrade for my i5 9400f due to it being a bit out of date at the moment when playing newer titles. My motherboard is a PRIME H310M-A R2.0 which only accepts 9th gen intel CPUs with this in my mind and my budget being a factor the i7-9700k is a good candidate as I can get...
