not worth running a psu that is on it's last legs . your whole system is reliant on it and it could end up causing problems with new hardware

Unplug the case from the motherboard completely. Power on with screwdriver. Look into this first and don't electrocute yourself. See if the problem is there when the case is completely disconnected. If that fixes it u can get a power button separately and power on with that.

Try removing completely then reinstalling your gpu drivers.

Research and turn off the windows 11 bloatware

Still may be intermittent ram problem. Run with 1 stick until problem shows itself, then switch to other stick until problem shows up. if problem occurs on both sticks separately then you can rule out the ram. If problem never happens on other stick then it's ram. Memory can still be unstable...

Lock ups can be a faulty ram module. If you have two sticks of ram try testing one at a time, at least to rule that out.

Ok nice one thanks, much appreciated

Was just looking at this gpu on this site and in the specification it says : https://www.novatech.co.uk/products/msi-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4060-ventus-2x-black-oc-8gb-gddr6-graphics-card/rtx4060ventus2xblack8goc.html Bus Standard: PCI Express 4.0 x16 (x8 Speed) Then looking at most motherboards...

Looking at a 4060 GPU it says it supprts PCI Express 4.0 x16 (x8 Speed). But then looking at the motherboards available they all seem to be PCIe 4.0 x16 (x4 Speed) Why do the motherboard pcie x16 slots not go up to 8 speed? They all seem to be at x4 ?

Thanks for your help Lafong. May use 2. Depends upon whether windows 10 interferes with linux mint. Recently had a dual boot with windows 10 and linux mint. Each time windows 10 booted it seemed to completely remove linux mint from the boot priority list in the bios.

For my particular requirement, it could just be better to use 2 sata ssds with 1 cable and switch as required then. Still get much better performance that an hdd i suppose. Always used an hdd up until now. The board im thinking of getting is: asus prime z690-p d4

Don't have a mobo that has m.2 yet. Have never used them before. Just doing a bit of research before getting one as to whether there are any issues using them.

Can you completely disable and enable m.2 drives nvme easily. For example if there were two drives installed with one that boots from a linux install and one that boots from a windows install. Ideally would just like to be able to tell the bios to either boot from this one or the other one and...

My CPU fan has always been set to full on for the last 8 years but seems to be making new noise where it appears to be losing a couple of hundred rpm slightly and it is noticable and annoying. The fan is new and a quick work around with speedfan was to set the rpm a bit lower so it's not...

Hi I'm considering installing the morpheus 2 on a msi 980ti and putting 2 120mm case fans on it. I'm wondering, is it possible to connect 2 case fans to the single fan connector on the gpu and what's the best way to do that? Would they need to be soldered together to work as one or is there...
