Upgraded my motherboard and cpu 4 weeks ago. While playing games, my pc would have the screen turn black, I lose audio to game immediately and then discord/YouTube 10 seconds later, then the system reboots. (This issue happens maybe once after every 1-2 hours while playing any random games...

Hey guys, recently installed a new power supply, Seasonic Prime 1000 Platinum. On the first start up, I noticed my CPU fans connected to my Corsair H110igt started at full blast. I thought that was odd, but then I noticed a smell, which I thought was the fan. I looked at the waterblock with the...

Take, for example, a computer with 2 RAM(s) installed. Will both the RAM(s) work simultaneously or the 2nd RAM is used once the 1st is full ??

3 weeks ago, while I was playing a game, my pc randomly turned off. I tried turning it back on, but it wouldnt turn on. I reseated the ram, tried booting without the gpu, replaced the cmos, replaced the cpu with a older one (upgraded from that), and replaced my power supply. Those did not fix...

Hello, my girlfriend's been having issues with her PC lately and I can't quite figure out the problem. First things first, I'd love if you let me know what types of diagnostics would you want me to run. The story is: I used to use this pc for years, I bought the base back in 2015 and in 2016 I...
