I got a Ryzen 9 9900X on a good deal! I thought it was perfect till I heard about the X3D cards. I'm an avid high-end gamer who wants to play on the best ultra settings as well as a video editor. I'm thinking of returning it for a Ryzen 9800X3D but it's about 140 dollars more. Questions: Is...

Hello all. I know that these questions have been coming thick and fast with recent events, but every example is different, so hopefully people aren't exhausted with the same question. I'm looking for some opinions about the upgrade path for a new build I'm contemplating and I'm really torn...

Hello everyone. I'm planning to buy a RTX 4060 Ti card, specifically this one. I read on the GPU manufacturer's website that the recommended PSU for this GPU is 500w but my PSU is about 7 years old at this point. I couldn't stretch my budget anymore since I just bought my Ryzen 5 5600 last month...

Hi everyone, I recently upgraded my laptop to a new HP Omen 16, equipped with a Ryzen 9 7940HS, RTX 4070, and 32 GB of RAM at 5600 MHz. I've never owned a laptop with an AMD processor before, so I'm not familiar with how to use the AMD software. Also, I don't quite understand why I need to...

Hi everyone, I just built my first pc a week ago and I’ve run into very slow/laggy performance after windows has loaded. I’m getting around 10FPS at the Home Screen. At the home screen it even takes my mouse a few seconds to respond with no applications running. Everything works fine in the BIOS...

I have decided to swap out my beloved 1080ti and just got my new RX 6800 XT in the mail. I am about to do the swap, but realized I need to wipe the OS for NVIDIA drivers. The problem I face now, is that my system and thus GPU runs in a watercooled loop, from where I have drained it and removed...

I've been working on this build for a couple of years now, postponing it a couple of times, and now after so much time I really don't want to give up, even though I maybe should :) Here's the deal, I've left an empty top shelf on my desk, with a window on top, big enough to fit my PC in it. I...

Hello fellow techies! This is a situation I have never encountered over the past 16 years I have been building. Basically, my monitor goes black and the PC acts like it restarts but the video doesn't come back on until I unplug everything and turn it back on. This can occur when I am sitting...

Hi, I assembled a new pc and i am been trying for 2 weeks to find out the root cause for a freeze that happens in 3dmark test. The issue was resolved only by changing the windows 10 power plan from balanced to high performance. Is this a faulty processor or something else ? Is there a theory...

Hello again everyone. I have bought a pc approximately 1 year ago, which has been running smooth AF and should still run smooth, BUT recently I started playing a game called "Legion TD 2" (VERY small game, which shouldnt require much pc usage) and I have random pc reboots without BSOD or any...

hey everyone, I recently acquired a graphics card (MSI GeForce GTX 1650 D6 VENTUS XS OCV1) for my OEM prebuilt Lenovo AMD PC. I was under the impression that this GPU could run without supplementary power, as on the Amazon page it says only 70 Watts, and my PCiE 4.0 Motherboard is supposed to...

Doing my first AMD build since the Bulldozer days. I've attached an image at the bottom for clarifications, but the gist of the story is this: Every time I install the video drivers, my screen glitches and turns to a mostly solid color. The GPU itself is fine. I just pulled it out of my...

So I've been struggling with this problem for a while now. When I'm doing anything in the desktop my pc will randomly freeze and restart (it does not happen when I'm gaming). So I've searched a lot about this and people say it's a voltage problem or something like that. I changed the PSU and it...
