I’m currently planning for a new build and am trying to narrow down a case. I currently use an NZXT H700 for my current build and it works fine, but with the new hardware being so darn hot plus the fact that I need my PC to run heavy workloads over long periods of time has got me thinking about...

Title is pretty self explanatory, it’s going into a hard to access location once it’s done and I don’t wanna deal with the headaches of an SD card. I do, however, need it to be as powerful as a Pi 4 or faster. Thanks!

I’m a real noob when it comes to Ras Pi stuff so bear with me. So, I install Ubuntu on an SD card and everything works great, until I slightly bump the table and the screen goes black. Turns out the USB C plug moved very slightly to cut off the power. I turn it back on, and it won’t boot with 2...

Even 2 of them?

I’m currently planning a small long term data archive and I was wondering: are 2 hard drives in RAID 1 more reliable than 1 SSD? No one has really compared these 2 configurations that I could find, so I was wondering if any of y’all have any insight on this. Thanks!

I am currently planning upgrades to my system and part of that includes an upgrade to 1440p @ 144Hz from 1080p @ 60Hz. I realize my current RTX 2060 won’t be able to keep up with that, so I also plan to upgrade my GPU. However, I don’t really know which GPU to get since I don’t want to throw...

Title says it all. Also, for the record, I am not actually going to attempt to use / build a machine with whatever CPU it is (obviously). This is just a question I can’t seem to get out of my head for some reason. The CPU requirements are so vague I don’t even know where to start. Here’s a link...

Update: after doing some more testing I found I got BETTER performance with RTX ON (no that’s not a typo). Since this is a beta I’m convinced it’s a bug. Thanks for your help!

I am running Windows 10 1909 because 2004 has not been offered to me in Windows Update yet. My PSU is only about 2 years old it’s a Corsair RM650X. I’m running the latest BIOS for my motherboard (version F9D on the Gigabyte Z270XP SLI). I haven’t tested other game titles yet but, I’ll update...

Hi, my PC is exhibiting some weird behavior when playing Minecraft (on the latest ray tracing beta). When I boot up the game (RTX Disabled) my FPS is a constant 60 FPS. So, I then boot up my world and my FPS stays at 60, all good so far but, after about 1 minute of playing my FPS dips to 50...

Sorry for the late response. I have a i7 7700K with a RTX 2060.

Does G Sync help with lower FPS? I play a lot of simulation games where the frame rate fluctuates between 60 and 40 FPS and when these fluctuations occur I feel a noticeable stutter on screen. So if I were to upgrade my 1080p 60 Hz monitor to a 1440p 144 Hz G Sync one would these stutters be...

Alright, I’m sold but I have one last question: can my PC push out 144 FPS? Specs CPU: Intel i7 7700K @ 4.5 GHz GPU: Nvidia RTX 2060 RAM: 16 GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 2400 MHz SSD: Samsung 970 Pro 1 TB

I am having trouble deciding between two monitors: Dell U2719D and LG 27GL850. I am currently using two HP 27er (60 Hz) which I am considering upgrading from due to the low PPI. I prefer the design of the U2719D since it has smaller bezels but it lacks support for G Sync and 144 Hz which the...

Thanks again for your answers!
