custom pc

I'm at my wits' end and hoping to find assistance on an issue I'm having with my PC build. My computer has been experiencing BSOD between 2:30 a.m and 5:00 a.m. every night. The PC functions fine during the day, which I use as a combination workstation and PLEX server. Here is a brief history of...

Hi all, I recently built my first pc and I made sure everything went in the right spot. I tried to power on my PC but the only thing that turned on was the LED lights on my MB. I tried resetting CMOS and a bunch of other things but got the same result. I noticed that the fans on my PSU wasn’t...

Hi all, So, I have a custom build pc. And it's just not working at all... I'm going to walk through the hardware, the progression of the issue (to the point where the computer is now totally unusable), and all the steps I've tried to fix it. I really hope someone can tell me what to do, since...

Hi just wanna share my current Project PC Desk (Computer Inside Desk) Theme - Dodge Charger 1970 [Build Log]

I've always been told that you can build a PC for cheaper than it costs to buy one but when I look up all the relevant parts it seems like it actually cheaper to just buy a pre-built tower. Am I missing something? I can get a pre-built with an RTX 2060 S and an i7 10700KF for under $1,500. An...

Hey guys, This isn't a HUGE issue (as in PC-breaking) but it is annoying. After unplugging my PC (that I built, BTW), it gives me a black screen with white text saying something about selecting a proper boot device, and just sits there. When I reboot it once, it says the same thing. If I reboot...
