I have tried everything, the superfetch disabling, turning off notifications, etc. I noticed that after i got a power driver state failure, my pc slowed down. I got that error after using the dell update utility. After i restarted my pc, everything seemed slow, but after a few re-boots and a...

Basically i was charging my laptop when i smelt a burning smell. I noticed it was coming from my power brick on my laptop charger. As an additional note, before this i noticed that the laptop was not charging since the power cable was not fully inserted into the power brick. I plugged it in...

As i'm sure most of you know relative humidity rises at night. Is this bad for my computer though? Some people have said that humidity never changed, just the relative percentage to the temperature outside, since cooler air holds less moisture. either way, is it safe to open the windows?

My 980 ti, during normal gaming applications, will max out at 79-81 Celsius. While i know this isn't horrible it is still too hot for my liking. I downloaded msi afterburner and the stock fan curve seems like it would be too loud, since the fans run at 80% when the card hits 80 c. Any...

To start I have 3 stock fans mounted on my PC (my case is the Corsair C70) 2 in the front bringing air in and 1 in the back taking air out. One of the front fans is mounted on the hard drive cage to cool my SSD and HDD. The other is unobstructed and has a clear path to my evga 980 ti. I also...

I have had this monitor for a year and have always used my same custom settings on the monitor. I have noticed the reds are very intense and they hurt sometimes but whenever i try and adjust it it just looks too blue or too green. These are my current settings: red 100 green 93 blue 97. My...

Hello all, i just bought a 980 ti (EVGA Superclocked+) since it was on sale, and i have an AMD FX 6300. I will upgrade my cpu, but, as it stands, i wont get the money till next year some time. I currently have a 970 and the bottlenecking is not really that obvious in GPU intensive games (tomb...

Thanks for all the answers, would turning on the heating cause condensation, i got it fixed and i want to warm up the house. But, i am nervous about condensation due to the low temperatures in the house. Thanks, Noah

Recently my heating has broke, and i do not want to replace the boiler yet. So, this has caused my house to get pretty cold (around 10 Celsius). I can see my breath in the air. In short, will turning my PC on cause moisture at this temperature? And could turning on the heat cause condensation in...

hello, this has been haunting me for a while. Im pretty pissed at window 10 so far, its not that great in my experience. I wish i could downgrade back to windows 10, but its too late. I have waited longer than a month. Either way, i was playing hotline miami, and suddenly the sound cut in my...

I really didn't know where to post this question, so I'm posting it in Graphics cards (sorry in advance. Since i am very used to the cold and never turn on the heat, but i want to avoid turning on my PC cold. (i know overheating is a much larger concern, but i still worry about possible...
