Looking at a 7700XT, but the problem is it's 335mm long, and I'm not sure it can fit in my case. Every graphics card I've ever bought I don't think has ever been this big. It's a pretty old case, but I will get a smaller GPU if I have to. I looked up the GPU clearance and a single website said...

I know the RX 6800 is better in raw performance by a slight amount and is cheaper, but from what I read online it has issues with power spikes which means my 650 watt PSU probably couldn't handle the load. The 7700 XT has some features that I could also use like AV1 encoding. I'm not a content...

Hi everyone! I am looking to revive a gaming pc that never really worked. I am looking to be able to run Windows 11 and run games like Hell Divers 2 and Hell let loose. These are the specs I currently have below and I believe one of the problems is that I never got an SSD? Or more of a CPU...

I recently upgraded my PC, and while it’s running smoothly, I’ve noticed my CPU temperatures are higher than I expected. My CPU idles at around 55°C, and under load, it goes up to 75°C. This seems within safe limits, but I’d like to reduce the temps for better efficiency and longevity...

I'm trying to upgrade to current gen motherboards so I have some longevity on my build. I might have some flexibility and go up to 750$ really depends on what I can save. I don't really care about what team they come from, just that it can run better than my current spec. I've looked at a bunch...
