Devices are tested, abused, made to fail and from the test sample the results are analysed. The MTBF is extrapolated. The chances are your drive will outlive its usefulness but there is a risk it will fail on the first power on. This is quantified by the MTBF. Mean = average. You need to...

The maker quotes a number of writes in TB for the drive. Tech Power Up quotes this information in the performance panel of their summary. https://www.techpowerup.com/ssd-specs/corsair-mp600-pro-nh-8-tb.d1162 So, data units written, 1.7Petabytes would indicate that it’s about 1/3rd worn...

You need to read the summary before that beginning “If you are considering an AMD 9000 series GPU because you have been influenced by Reddit, Twitter or a wealthy tech YouTuber, it’s worth understanding AMD’s track record.” Anyone reading that would be put off …

I had a Benq lcd with a single always on pixel in the bottom left quarter of the screen. It was nothing in the scheme of things but it drew my eye to it in any darker scenes. That it was a single off centre pixel meant that I couldn’t get the monitor replaced. Had the thing for 5 years, I...

Biggernumberbetternumber There comes a point where the numbers are marketing only. My motherboard pushed 218W into a 9900x while benchmarking. The VRM peaked at 83°C, this was today. Playing games the VRM is running at 50 to 60°C in gaming. It isn’t stressed.

So long as the temps are under control you should be good. Extra heat will shorten the life of a chip. Thinking of old desktop CPUs the argument was that the lifetime of the cpu was, for example, a nominal 10 years and you intended to replace the system in 6 years then you may as well enjoy the...

Ok, on the bios screen set it to simple or easy mode, hopefully some information will be shown like… motherboard type, processor name, memory type

Can you boot into the bios?

Can you open the case? Tell us the model number of the pc?

There are limitations at to what is defined as defective. https://community.acer.com/en/kb/articles/581-defective-or-stuck-pixels The link has a table describing the limits. A single dead pixel is described as acceptable.

My thinking was.. if screwed in .. get a repair shop to remove it and swap it with the one in the middle. Same if it is soldered. Neither is a fix I would like to try myself because of the probability of secondary damage.
