    Question Cooler Master PSU Smoked: Worried About Possible Damage to Components

    Question Is it worth upgrading from an MSI A320M-A Pro Max to an Asus Rog Strix B350-F ?

    I currently have an MSI A320M-A Pro Max motherboard with 5 months of warranty left, paired with a Ryzen 3 3100 CPU. I've come across a good deal for an Asus ROG Strix B350-F motherboard and a Ryzen 5 1600 CPU combined for 4,000 INR (47 USD). The B350 is out of warranty, but considering the...

    [SOLVED] Did Gsync kill my GPU?

    As someone who plays most games at 80-120fps i think i kind of need Gsync. Though now that i havent had the experience since the last 3 months or so(I was on IGPU and at 60hz) just using 144hz already feels really good. But like you said I should probably get another cable. And hope the gpu died...

    [SOLVED] How much memory does this GPU have?!

    How much did you get it for? And what kind of a system are you building and under what budget? I am sure there are better options under almost every budget. I am also curious about what other components you are pairing it up with.

    Question Gpu running hot out of the box, i need a good thermal paste or thermal pad

    It could be your PC case. A case which doesn't have good air flow or is dusty can cause this. Though 89°c is a bit too high to be a case-only issue.

    [SOLVED] Did Gsync kill my GPU?

    Yep both my monitor and PC are connected to the same power source i.e. my UPS. I am not able to follow what separating power and data cable means, please explain.

    [SOLVED] Games lag after upgrading to 3070 ?

    I had the exact same issue couple of days back when I installed my 1060(my previous gpu which was a 1050ti which died) and when I launched games they were very laggy. And the fps was less compared to 1050ti. The GPU was sitting at 20-50% usage while my CPU was at 100% all the time. I tried DDU...

    [SOLVED] Did Gsync kill my GPU?

    So basically my (now dead) 1050ti started showing signs of dying around 4 months ago. Which is the same time around which I got a Display port cable and turned on Gsync. The issues i had at the start were display going out, crashing into a random colored screen and PC randomly restarting. Is it...
