I installed a new CPU cooler which is larger than my old one, and now my rear exhaust fan will not fit without the blades making contact with the cooler. There isn't any other slot on the back of the case. The system is pretty low end and does not have an external GPU, so can I just use the...

@Aeacus @jonnyguru thanks for the help. I think I'll get a new PSU first and RMA the motherboard for now. I'll get a new CPU+motherboard later this year if the prices don't increase too much due to the virus. Are you sure it's a Windows problem? You should try running a Linux distribution on a...

If it is a motherboard issue I guess I'll try to RMA it. I don't see much point in buying another 7th gen Intel board in 2020.

@Aeacus My CPU temperature is around 65° and GPU temperature is at around 75° before it reboots, which is quite normal for my setup. The only Seasonic product in the 500W range I can find in my country is the S12II SERIES 80+ Bronze 520W. Is it reliable? It looks like it's a very old unit. I...

Hi, I purchased an ARCTIC F12 PWM - 120 mm PWM Fan and I'm using it as an exhaust fan for my case. It seems to be very loud all the time. This is what my BIOS looks like: https://imgur.com/a/Nzvt0eI My motherboard is an MSI H110M Pro-VH Plus. Should I try lowering the fan speeds or are the...

I bought a new Seagate Backup Plus Slim 1TB hard drive from China. When I connect it to my computer, it lights up and gets recognized, but doesn't show up in the file explorer. It does show up in disk management, but it's capacity is displayed as just 74.53GB. How do I format it correctly to get...

I had a spare external hard drive, so I decided to take it apart and use it as an internal hard drive for my PC. I connected the SATA and data cables normally, and when I switched on my system I found that my keyboard and mouse were not responding. It took a little longer to boot as well. What...
