I was playing GTA yesterday for a bit. Then my pc freezes, the whole thing. so i turn it off and try to restart it but it was power cycling, I re seated the cmos first than the ram, and it started working again. When i started playing another game a while later again I played for another hour...

I've always had a few issues with lag in the two games I play, Arc Raiders and Warzone. In Arc I suffer from big lag, fps drops, all sorts for the first 20-30 minutes play for any new log in to the game and it then plays fine, for hours. Warzone will often work fine then get a bit crunchy if I...

Hi, Is it worth overclocking my Radeon RX 7700 XT for better gaming performance ? If so, should I also upgrade my CPU ? Thanks in advance!

Lately, my PC has been crashing and force-restarting itself during initial startup, but usually stops after a few restarts. This has happened for the past 2 months or so but hasn't really affected anything until now. I can't even play a low-intensity game for very long without it crashing. My...

For a few weeks now, the i5-8350U CPU on my Lenovo ThinkPad T480 Laptop is almost constantly overheating up to 98 degrees celsius (208 F), even at low load. Even running Windows (11) Update can cause this. Fan is running at 4000 RPM max and doesn't create any weird sounds, so I'm assuming it's...

Hey y'all. My brother asked if I can fix his roommate's computer. The CPU was overheating. Simple fix, I apply new thermal paste, mount the cooler, and turn it on! It shuts off after pressing the power button. Okay, maybe I mounted the cooler wrong, so I remount that. Doesn't work. Took out the...

I'm currently in the process of upgrading my motherboard, CPU and RAM. I was planning to get the Ryzen 5 9600X CPU and the Gigabyte B850M motherboard but then saw the prices for DDR5 RAM, the cheapest 16GB DDR4 RAM is kind of affordable compared to DDR5. I'm looking for longevity with the...

My Ryzen 7 3700X thats in my b550 pro vdh wifi, stopped working all of sudden, even though it was working yesterday I crosstested the CPU and Motherboard, I put my 5 2600 in my B550 and it worked, was able to post (No Cooler) I then put my 7 3700x in a b450m and that worked too (No Cooler...

Hey all. I wanna max out my pc memory capacity (ddr4) since the prediction says that the RAMmageddon is going to last for years to come and I'm a video editor. I recently saw some ddr4 module being sold for the original price in a tech mall in my city and I've got a feeling that the price isn't...

Hi all, Currently i am using a Ryzen 7 3700X with an RTX 3070 Ti GPU. Now due to the insane PC prices i'm going to stay with AM4 and looking to upgrade my CPU as it's 7 years old as of July and AM5 looks like a pipe dream currently? Which is the better CPU? I hear the Ryzen 7 5800XT runs...

Hi all! I've now experienced multiple game crashes in Valheim and 2 BSOD in the past couple of days of using my computer. As far as I'm able to determine, it seems to be a CPU error, though I'd be happy to know if there are any other ideas/solutions to explore please. Two points that direct me...

would it perform well in games? how bad is the bottleneck? which games would it perform worse in?

Edit: 1 stick of ram is now also giving errors I started noticing instability like browser tabs crashing and games crashing too, as well as random restarts and bsods. Sometimes files wouldn't install or download correctly. OCCT and testmem5 would spit out errors, both with the CPU + RAM test on...

I recently got some components from my uncle. He didn't need them as he upgraded to a new pc. I got a Z170-A board, 16GB DDR4 Patriot RAM and a CPU that just won't let me have my peace. The CPU in question is an i7 6700k. The setup came with a cooler and heatsink for the processor. I loaded...

CPU: i7 8550U I recently changed the thermal paste (I used Artic MX-4). I made sure that the heat sink was properly fitted and screwed in place, as well as the cooler. I use Ubuntu, so I decided to run the following command: stress-ng --cpu 8 --cpu-method matrixprod --timeout 900s...

I'm hoping the community can help me choose whether to do this upgrade or not. Would any of you AM4 users upgrade to the Ryzen 9 5950X? Or wait to upgrade the motherboard and RAM? My Ryzen 7 has been going strong for a few years but I was considering upgrading. I know the Ryzen 9 5950x is the...

Hi all, I am building a new PC and I plan on getting an RTX 5070 Ti for my GPU. I am trying to figure out what CPU to pair with it so that I am not bottlenecking anything but also not going overkill. I keep hearing people recommend some AMD CPU's, but I thought there can be some conflicts when...

To preface: In early 2022, I picked up an i7 12700 (non K), and a budget DDR4 LGA1700 motherboard for my first PC; I didn't really know much about PC building at the time. Around a year ago, the ram slots stopped working on that board so I went to Microcenter and got a great deal on a new...
