    Question 3 external touch monitors with USB-C - how to connect to PC?

    Hi, thank you for the assessment. Could you please elaborate on the part: "You will need to hook up both HDMI and Type-C ports to your platform to get full functionality of the panels;" What do you mean by "my platform"? What is the difference between plugging a USB-C into my PC and plugging...

    Question 3 external touch monitors with USB-C - how to connect to PC?

    Hi, I want to get 3 touch screens to use for my flight simulator (MSFS). I want to place them in front of (below) my main 32" screen (next to each other) and use them for pop-out displays and other stuff. I found this model...

    Question Is it worth to upgrade GPU on this system for gaming?

    Thank you! I decided to go for the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB. Should arrive later this week. It seems that the heat sink is made of aluminium. Is it true that liquid metal cooling paste should NOT be used on aluminium?

    Question Is it worth to upgrade GPU on this system for gaming?

    From what I see here, I think that my CPU AIO cooler might actually be the primary issue. It's been my friend for 5 years, so perhaps it's time to replace it :) . Do you guys have any tips for AIO water coolers? Hopefully the CPU itself is okay, after being exposed to those temperatures...

    Question Is it worth to upgrade GPU on this system for gaming?

    This is probably true, however I always want to get the best, so it lasts many years ahead :). Dual 8GB at 3200 MHz (G.Skill Trident), showing between that and 3500 in CPU-Z. None of the cores are maxed out, however the temperatures seem to be out of charts, reaching 100 °C. Maybe I should...

    Question Is it worth to upgrade GPU on this system for gaming?

    Just tried downgrading to 1080p. The GPU usage went way lower (30-40 %), but the FPS is the same, mostly hurting when panning around the cockpit, coming back to 10-15... Same as at 4K. But the CPU isn't maxed out either, its usage is still the same. So basically, nothing is maxing out, but I...

    Question Is it worth to upgrade GPU on this system for gaming?

    Yes, it's a known thing that the flight simulator titles are CPU bound, but I find it strange that my GPU is maxed out all the time and the CPU is barely at 50 %. What's going on there then?

    [SOLVED] Admin PW works for login but not for UAC confirmation

    Thanks, I will create my admin and disable the built in. But will that help with my password problem? Also - what is a domain admin if I may ask? I am the only one using this particular PC and it's at a secured location. I want to use "non admin" account for internet security purposes and to...

    [SOLVED] Admin PW works for login but not for UAC confirmation

    Hi all, so we experienced an attack within our company recently, so we are working on some IT security improvements. Our IT contractor told me that it's always best to use the computers without admin rights. Since we'll start using Open VPN for remote access shortly, I want to configure even...

    [SOLVED] Printing pages upside down, why?

    Hi all, I've been dealing with a strange issue in the office. When I try to print something on both sides of the paper, it flips the document on short edge, therefore the second page is upside down. This happens regardless of the user software (Acrobat DC, Acrobat Reader, MS Word...). I'm...
