    Question Two sets of 2 x 32gb ram instead of 128gb kit

    Ah so still no guarantee, gotcha. I'll just place an order for the 128 kit then and give to her after her bday to avoid the risk. She does a lot of video editing from youtube to tiktok videos...also is a heavy Blender user, and has things often running in the background like wallpaper engine...

    Question Two sets of 2 x 32gb ram instead of 128gb kit

    Hello, I tried searching but couldn't really get a clear answer. Unfortunately store is all sold out of the 128gb kits and my friend's bday is in a couple days. Can I use 2 sets of a 2 x 32gb kit if the CL stuff on the label match? Or should it be same brand as well (because there's only 1 in...

    [SOLVED] 3080 with 4 4k displays?

    Hi everyone, I was just wondering if having multiple displays at 4k would be "too much" for the 3080 to handle? Currently I have 4 displays, 2 are ancient Samsung 1080p monitors from 2010/2011, and 2 are 4k (Eve Spectrum, and LG 55" OLED) I wanted to replace my 1080p monitors because I've...

    [SOLVED] PC was fine for months, suddenly won't post, fixed but white VGA light stays on?

    Hi I'm so sorry, I updated it just as you responded. It seemed reseating the ram worked, she's made it to desktop but the white VGA light stays on. Do you think there's an issue there?

    Hi all, A friend of mine who's pc has been working fine for months suddenly wouldn't post. Black screen on monitor, keyboard/mouse aren't either. But the internal components, fans/gpu/ram LED are turning on. So I asked her to check the Q-LED lights and the DRAM yellow light is on. I'm confused...

    Question Windows updated and reassigned letters to my drives and now can't get to desktop?

    I checked out Macrium and EaseUS, I ended up going with EaseUS because of the simple interface. Macrium was great and pretty fast too. I got a lifetime license from EaseUS on sale so I figured it was a good deal. I didn't like Acronis it was pretty slow and my boot into windows also slowed down...

    ah i see, thank you for letting me know. Do you think it's a lost cause? I should just do a fresh install? I'm hoping the back ups windows was doing didn't get corrupted too.

    Question Windows updated and reassigned letters to my drives and now can't get to desktop?

    I don't understand your reply. You don't believe I did it or you're just enforcing that it didn't stick because it doesn't work that way? I assume I did? in command prompt: diskpart list disk select disk 0 detail disk (to see if I have the right vol) select vol 0 assign letter=k (this is...
