So for a while now I have been getting strange noises from my headphones that are kind of bubbly with a sound that makes you think of a window's error message but repeated. I fallowed all sorts of things to get it fixed and it stopped. The problems were something with the driver I was using...

So I have a problem that recently started happening on my PC.
When I start up a game in full screen(for example: minecraft, or an emulator) the game duplicates itself to my second monitor. On my main monitor, the game shows the first frame, and just freezes. On the second monitor the game...
There is a problem in the Sticky Thread entitled, "How to Ask for Advice about Choosing a New GPU". The very first piece of advice in this thread is to look at "Tom's Hardware Graphics Articles". This link is broken, leading only to an error page.
Given how important this topic is to the...
Whenever I visit Amazon.com, on Chrome or Brave, the word "abs" always pops up on Amazon's search bar by itself. I already used CCleaner to clean all cookies, and Chrome's built-in feature for cleaning passwords, cookies, history, etc., but nothing makes "abs" stop popping up on my screen. I...
Recently I have had some strange issues with level of detail in my games. Shadow resolution will change at very close distances, or objects will pop in closer then they should. However other then that there seem to be no issues? Has anybody had something similar and if so is there anything I...
I really don't know where to post this because it's such a weird bug, but here's my issue:
My "e" keystroke stopped working, and I don't mean my physical keyboard broke, because even using the on screen keyboard clicking "e" doesn't work, and what is stranger is it will work if I press SHIFT E...
Hello, and thanks for opening this thread! Tonight my 1 year old laptop has started making very, very loud whirring sounds which seem to come from the fans. I am not 100% sure if the sound is caused by the fans (I am not a tech expert) but I am 99%, as it sounds too much different from HDD...
So my PC wouldn't come back from sleep mode (when the monitor just goes black but the fans are still spinning and the computer still makes noise etc.) no matter what keys I pressed, so I turned it off by holding down the power key, tried turning it back on, I only get the ASUS logo when...
Exactly as the title says. Sometimes scrolling gets stopped all the sudden and I can't do anything to make it scroll, be it mouse wheel or dragging the scroll bar, then by doing so, this thing appears in the corner. Image to show what it looks like.

I am building an Ryzen 7 2700 based pc paried with an rx 580 8GB (cant afford to upgrade right now). I can't decide whether to buy Corsair Vengeance Rbg 3000Mhz ram, or Corsair Vengeance 3200Mhz ram. Both are 16GB kits, but the 3200mhz kit is $104.99 and the 3000mhz kit is $113.99. I want the...
So I decided to put my 'Toshiba 1TB drive' from an older config inside my current one. I checked that the SATA rate was the same and it is.
After putting it in I found this error message and I dunno what it means.

I have an old athlon x4 860k and gigabyte GA-F2A68HM-S1 motherboard lying around.
So, I would like to know if I can overclock my cpu with that motherboard? I also have the stock cooler for the procesor,
so a little advice on a cheap good overclocking cooler would be nice as well.
Thanks! :)

Hi, I just build a new pc.
I have a strange problem. When i plug out a USB from the front panel hub, the PC turns on or turns off (depends if the pc is on or off when i plug out the usb).
It could be some sort of short circuit with the front panel USB hub and power switch pin? Does someone have...
I was gaming and i got a black screen. I smelled burning plastic from my psu and i turned it off immediatly. My 8pin molex connector for my gpu had melted wires and I dont know if my GPU died.

My motherboard is a Bluecase BMBH61-S and it's got its overclocking option locked out.
So what are my options since my cpu is running way too hot!
Any help appreciated!
I've installed a new motherboard. I bought it used with money from selling my previous motherboard, so I can't use this computer to fix anything. First problem: crashed on startup. DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I think I've got this deduced to my GPU since when I start Windows with it unplugged...
I have a AMD Ryzen 5 2600 (not overclocked) with the stock cooler, it idles around 45°C. In AMD Ryzen Master I can sometimes see the CPU randomly jump from current temps to 206°C back to the current temps, Obviously bad readings because my pc would have combusted in front of my eyes, but does it...
Hey everyone,

Okay so with the new nvidia driver you are able to enable gsync on a freesync monitor. the monitor i have is the acer xfa240. the problem is since i play on a laptop with an external display, there are only 3 options available in the nvidia control panel, meaning i can't setup gsync since...

i recently upgraded my old rx 480 to an rx 64 as it was on sale however the header on my psu only had one 6pin + 2pin header and a single 6pin header. So i bought an adapter for it as the card needs two 8pin headers, is this safe?
