    [SOLVED] Intel Core i5 7640x Windows 11 compatible?

    Next time, don't come on my thread, start arguments with me, not answer my question, then accuse me of being childish. The person who said that is now blocked and cannot have the privilege of talking to me. If you don't have anything better to say, then leave and be on with your day. I have...

    [SOLVED] Intel Core i5 7640x Windows 11 compatible?

    I currently own a core i3 9100f, but for my own reasons, I wanted to get a core i5 7640x. Now, it's not stated in the official list of Windows 11 supported processors, but was supposedly added back in August. I currently am running Windows 11 Pro, but was wondering if getting the LGA 2066...

    [SOLVED] USB C through Adapter to send display to a USB C monitor, not power it.

    My question is; If I buy a Display Port to USB C, can I use the USB C as the display cable? I know that it doesn't have enough power to power on the monitor by itself, and I wasn't planning on doing that anyways, I was going to use an AC adapter to power it. I want to know if I can use it to...

    [SOLVED] When restart computer, screen flickers and goes blank.

    Figured out that the version of Linux Mint installed is incompatible with the Motherboard, CPU, and M.2 SSD I had, thus leading to all three of them bricking. I replaced my computer back in August, and My GPU is still working fine, just had to replace the Motherboard, CPU, and SSD. The thing to...

    Question Super Flower Leadex III Bronze 650w 80+ Bronze for Asus STRIX GTX 980 TI?

    I found this PSU for 89.99$ USD from Newegg, and it's a B tier PSU. Was wondering if it would work well with the GTX 980 TI? I plan on upgrading to an AMD RX 6600 which only requires a 450-500 watt PSU, but need something to run my current GPU, an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 TI Asus STRIX variant...

    Wow, I had no idea. Thank you for your advice. I already knew 80+ is the efficiency rating, I just thought it correlated with the PSU rank.

    [SOLVED] Windows 11 already installed, can I get a Ryzen 5 1600 and keep Windows 11?

    My bad, I don't actually have those Processor's to test, but, the i5 9600k is about ( a little worse) on par with the Ryzen 5 2600, so I am just going to go with it. I read on some website that the 1600 and 2600 was better, but, they are both worse than the 9600k. And, anyways I already have a...

    [SOLVED] Windows 11 already installed, can I get a Ryzen 5 1600 and keep Windows 11?

    Currently, I own a core i3 9100f, and it bottlenecks my GTX 980 TI horribly. I was going to go with a core i5 9600k, but the Ryzen 5 1600 is cheaper, and from what I have read, is more powerful. I am not looking to overclock my CPU or RAM, so I would go with something like A320 or B350...

    [SOLVED] When restart computer, screen flickers and goes blank.

    I took out my GPU and installed the intel graphics drivers and the intel command center, and the problem went away, but, this is not a solution, as I need to be able to use my GPU. Does that information help add to what it might be? Please let me know.
