So, my 8800 GT broke and I'm looking for a replacement (I only need Firefox and Word basically). Just found this GPU for a good price ($53 new), but will it work on this 13-14 y old PC?
GPU to buy: Nvidia GT 610
CPU: Intel 2 Duo E8400
RAM: 2x2 GB DDR2

Hello I am not new to system components but I am new to GPU repair and PCB circuitry. I recently purchased a broken Aorus 1080ti locally for 60 dollars with the intent to fix. I have diagnosed the problem to be a blown module located in the vcore. I dont know exactly if it is a mosfet but I do...
I got a GTX 1050-Ti from my friend. It doesn't have a cooler, but i'm planning to put the cooler from my GTX 1050 there (both are MSI low-profile models, so they should be compatible). I have no idea if it's broken or anything.
Let's assume that it's broken (which i have no idea of) and i put...
So I decided to do a custom watecooling loop and I installed a barrow GPU waterblock to my Dual asus rtx 2080. After completing my build, everything was fine for a few weeks.
suddenly, I tried turning on my pc and booting into windows but then it lost connection from my monitor and displays “no...
Hello,
I picked myself up a 1440p display the other day as my third monitor and now I'm getting tearing/glitches whenever my computer comes out of the sleep mode or when the monitor is woken up in any other way. The 1440p monitor is connected via display-port(No issues when using HDMI, no...
Hello. My GPU acts a bit strange lately. It has made screen tearing problem and task manager couldn't even detect it. After all days searching for the problem I saw that (software) GPU-Z are showing that my 1060 has a 'Memory Type DDR3 (Hynix)' and 'Memory Size 2048MB'. Moreover I can't even do...
I recently upgraded my pc with a ryzen 5 3600 and new ram. Everything worked fine for a couple of days until today while playing fortnite and messing with settings the screen turns off but fans and stuff still spin. I turn off the pc and then turn it back on. Fans spin, leds light up on...

So my computer has gone no signal randomly for a few days. It stays on and music keeps playing, but I can hear this weird static noise through the headphones. I have to restart the computer to go on again. Today it did it again and I restarted it and I have no signal at all, so I put my old GPU...
I recently bought a broken gpu for parts but I thought that I might try and fix it. When plugged in with all power connectors, the psu makes a click sound and shuts everything off until restart. It is not the psu as I have the exact same card that I use in a daily basis in the same pc. When I...
My friend gave me a GTX 960, when I put it in my pc though, there was a lot of graphical glitches. I asked him about it and he said that he forgot to put in support for the card so now one or more of the VRAM chips have been dislodged. I think this is the problem because when I'm playing a game...
I’ve had my new MSI gtx 1060 6gb model for a month now and for some reason when it’s under stress it just randomly turns off? I’m not sure but it’s unlikely it’s the temp I turned up the fans on msi afterburner to try to prevent this. I also recently overclocked about a week ago and all has gone...
I have a £750 budget for a laptop. I've been looking at this one on amazon but I've never had a laptop so I'm not sure if it's good for it's price.
