    Question Code 43 / no display signal / black screen with RTX 3060 Ti ?

    Hi @Imperat0r, Don't worry about this, whatever. We still don't know about the PSU brand, which is very important when talking about GPUs. A bad quality PSU can also lead to this. Indeed. I always first have a look at the possible "Software" problems before the "Hardware" problems. But if...

    Question Code 43 / no display signal / black screen with RTX 3060 Ti ?

    Hello @sizzlinkola, I'm @Vikko151, and I'll do my best to help you. The first thing you might want to do when a new GPU doesn't work on a device that had an older GPU is to uninstall and install your GPU drivers properly. It means you'll have to use a program that allows you to clearly...

    Question HELP!! 1440p monitor down to 1080p

    Hi again @polgas0625, Oh, nice for you! But how did you fixed the problem? I'd be interested to know. EDIT: Sorry for my lack of time. I wanted to suggest you CRU. It's a powerful tool that allows you to create custom resolutions. This would be my solution. @Vikko151

    Question HELP!! 1440p monitor down to 1080p

    Hey @polgas0625, First off all, welcome to Tom's Hardware, the perfect place to see your problem being fixed. I'm @Vikko151 and I'll try doing my best to help you. If you use HDMI, your Intel Iris Xe iGPU can support up to 4096x2306, with a pixel clock of ~640 MHz. Your 2560x1440 60Hz pixel...

    Question Hard disk drive suddenly disappearing while playing.

    Hello @MaxExile, I'm @Vikko151, and I will try helping you in your problem. Indeed, doing 3 resets per day to play a game for one hour is annyoing. The first thing I'd do is to swap the SATA cables, because if your disk works correctly and suddenly dissapears from the Windows Explorer, we...

    Review Review on a 290 CHF (~$320) build without GPU

    Hello @35below0, Thanks for the tips. But I learned something about my friend: He told me that actually, when he bought the SSD, there was a quantity discount, and so, he got 2 disks, among them 1 that he never used for... Well, I'm not inside his head, so not my problem :vendredi: . Since the...

    Review Review on a 290 CHF (~$320) build without GPU

    Hello @35below0, Thanks for the answer! So, you don't advise me to use an individual stick, but instead 2 sticks of 8 GB. So, yea, that's what we call Dual Channel memory. I always thought it was a way to process for one single sticks, which indeed causes reduced performances. Well, I can go...

    Review Review on a 290 CHF (~$320) build without GPU

    Hello folks, I am already back on another topic concerning my friend who wants to get a better build (I'm alright with him. You'll see it later). So, a few months ago, I gave him my old computer which got those components: CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-4790, 4 Cores, 8 Threads, 3.6GHz GPU: NVIDIA GTX...

    Question Changing from ASUS VG279Q1A to AOC Q27G2E - Is it reasonable or not?

    Also, note that the original screen costed 187$, and that both price in shop (Digitec) and on second hand are converted prices. I might also mention that I haven't checked if it's a scam or not (It's not too beautiful to be true, so I'm confident).

    Question Changing from ASUS VG279Q1A to AOC Q27G2E - Is it reasonable or not?

    Hello Tom's Hardware, So, today I'm writing this thread, because I am really hesitating on a screen change. One of my friend has got a ASUS VP247QG and has got some problems in term of fludity, because 75Hz isn't really fluent in FPS, mostly for CS2 and Battlefield. So, I'd like to give him a...

    News Nintendo forces Garry's Mod to delete 20 years of content — Garry confirms Nintendo is behind Steam Workshop purge

    The DMCA has always been a purge to user-generated content. A situation like this one, where a big corporation, in this situation Nintendo, deletes/bans or forces another corporation to delete/ban a part of user-generated content, but for the last years, this became more severe than ever...

    Question No signal to monitor with a new RX 6700 10GB ?

    Hi @Rehand, That's a good question. I would say, the chances are pratically least. But it's something we have to test. I guess you kept your GTX 750. According to what you said: Your GPU should be working. But a PSU that kills a GPU can only happen if the PSU is faulty. To make sure it's not...

    Question No signal to monitor with a new RX 6700 10GB ?

    Hello @John Chesterfield, ...Thanks, I guess? Actually, you don't really look convinced about the fact there would be a possible bottleneck. To rassure you about what I'm talking about, I got a proof about this. I asked on Tom's Hardware about if I should change my i7-4790 or not. Most people...

    Question No signal to monitor with a new RX 6700 10GB ?

    Hi @John Chesterfield, Yea, that exactly my reaction when I saw this build... but there's just a little problem: I don't think so. I am typically this person that always used old gaming computers, and even a 4th generation i7 struggled (and I really say struggled) to hold a RTX 2060...

    Question No signal to monitor with a new RX 6700 10GB ?

    Hello @Rehand, Thank you very much for your answer. The fact you got a laptop is quite pretty OK in term of iGPU, and whatever if you got a iGPU or not, you wouldn't be able to play video games as you would do with your RX 6700 XT. Another thing is to ask you if the money system of the PC Part...
