Thank you for all the answers, I have a much better understanding of how it works now.

For now I will only have a 980 pro 2tb where windows will be installed on and games and an 860 evo 1tb for all my other files/documents and some games once the 980 fills up. Once I start to run out of room I will purchase another nvme drive because I fond it weird that good nvme drives are...

I am building a new PC with a 7900xt, a 980 pro nvme ssd for my boot drive and this motherboard: https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B650-AORUS-ELITE-AX-rev-1x#kf I will probably add more nvme storage in the future. From this part of the specs it looks like it has three m.2 slots, one gen 5...

I know the 970 evo plus is gen 3 and the 990 pro is gen 4 but would I notice a difference when booting windows from sleep or just everyday tasks like opening programs and gaming?

My gpu and Tv support hdmi 2.1, but my avr does not and my gpu only has 1 hdmi port and 2 displayports. Can I connect my gpu to my TV via HDMI, then connect my gpu to my avr using a displayport to hdmi cable to get sound from the avr?

That team group t force ram says it's for Intel xmp, that wouldn't work with an AMD CPU correct?

Approximate Purchase Date: ASAP, but can wait until prime day if prices are expected to go down for the sale. Budget Range: $1000 pre tax, not including GPU or storage because I already have those. I am flexible on the price if it makes sense for the build and what I want. This budget is just...

This was out of stock at my nearby microcenters and they don't ship this bundle. I can also order parts from Newegg, Amazon, etc if there are better options.

The specs for that CPU on Intel's website says up to ddr4 3200 MT/s, how would getting faster ram help? Since I'm not over clocking is there a non k version of that CPU because I didn't find one or is it still beneficial to get a k version CPU? I really don't want to deal with an aio, a good...

I want to build a new PC and with an rtx 4070 ti, the $800 asus tuf model, it doesn't look like it's too difficult to get once in stock. But I am still debating if I should wait for a price drop on the 4000 series or just build now. I already have plenty of nvme and ssd from my current PC and I...

When I turn on my windows 10 laptop from sleep there is no internet when connected via an ethernet cable, I have to tell windows to troubleshoot the problem. Windows resets the ethernet adapter and gives me this message " "Ethernet" doesn't have a valid IP configuration." When turning on my...

Listed specs, anything missing? I checked and drivers are up to date but I will try a clean install just in case.

I have an amd r9 280x and a monitor that supports full rgb, when I have my monitor set to full rgb and go into the radeon software and set the pixel format to full rgb I get blacks just how you are supposed to. I see every box from this link: http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/black.php#blacktest.png...

I need to update my windows 7 pc to windows 10, I know I can do it for free using the windows media creation tool but I heard that in order for windows 10 to recognize my windows key on my pc and migrate it to windows 10 I should not do a clean install, is this correct? After I update to windows...
