So, about yesterday, I was running Terragen which is a heavily cpu dependant 3D rendering software, was playing around with the render settings and stuff and didn't notice how hot the CPU was getting during all the viewport rendering process. I don't have particularly good cooling solution for...

Hello, I have a feeling that my internal desktop storage HDD is agonizing. Would you mind giving your thoughts about the CrystalDiskInfo report I've attached? DEC Raw Values, btw. FYI: I already have 3 x backups, so chill :) Thank you!

I've seen a lot of people saying that their drive died after about a year and I thought maybe updating the firmware would help me to potentially not have this happen. I've had my drive for about 6 or 7 months.

For the past few months, I've had to replace two SSD's due to Windows infinite repair loops and even when I reinstalled windows, the SSD would eventually just crap out. Would could possibly be the issue here? What I've noticed is when the PC is under stress from many Google Chrome windows open...

i have an Intel core i3 gen 9 CPU and am going to upgrade it to an i7 9700k CPU is this okay? It has the same LGA 1151 socket but I’m just posting this because I already got a CPU that was an i5 7th gen with the same socket but it was incompatible. If someone can tell me if this is a compatible...

As the title says, a few days ago I got an USB power surge warning as I was charging a few too many VR accessories through my USB ports. Unplugged all the devices and everything seemed normal. However, when I tried to start the PC the next day, it would refuse to boot. The fans spun up and the...

So just came home from work today and tried to start my PC. Right after pressing the power button, it started and about 1 second later it shut down again. It kept doing this process over and over unitil I had to plug it off. Im trying to figure out if the problem is my PSU or the MoBo, or...

Hello! Today my friend asked me to try his video card as it won't give him any display after he turns on his computer. After i installed the GPU, and turned on my computer, the boot started to looping and restarted at GPU debug led. So i decided to put back my GPU, but the PC did the same. Next...

Dear everyone, My problem is that last night I fall asleep while watching some movie(online), my laptop battery drained. Today morning I woke up and suddenly my laptop can't boot the windows. I can hear a little beeping, probably the motherboard because of the failure. The system can't...

There was a short power outage while my pc was in sleep mode. Normally, this doesn't really affect anything and it usually just shuts down just like this time. Only now when I turn it back on it displays a message that says " No operating system found -- Try disconnecting any drives that don't...

This started two days ago when I powered on my PC and tried playing a game. Everything was sluggish and frozen because only 8gb of memory was being recognized (in OS and BIOS). I then restarted multiple times and it didn’t change until I powered off the system and powered it back on. It worked...

Hello, I'm having this issue with our 2 computers at home. 1- AMD Ryzen 5 2600 / 32GB Ram Crucial Ballistix (16x2) RAM / Asus Tuf Gaming b450 Elite II Mobo / GeForce RTX 3060 TI 8GB / Gigabyte 80+ Gold 750W Power Supply / Forza power regulator 2200v 2- AMD Ryzen 5 1600 / 32GB Ram Delta...

Hey everyone. Me and the misses decided to buy computers off Kijiji for the kids just to do school work and play minor games (SIms 4). The oldest kids computer when playing Sims will completly shut off and the fan goes into overdrive. What would be causing this and how do I fix this?? My...

NVIDIA RTX A5000 has a TDP of 230W. It supports PCIe 4 which draws 75W and allows you to put a 8-pin connector which draws 150W. So, 75+150=225W. How they are gonna provide 230W to the GPU? Does dual-lane GPU draw 75*2 from the PCI lane? As the power draw from the PCI lane is same for PCIe 3...

So my PSU is the oldest part in my PC, at just over 8 years old. It's a Corsair CS750M. My PC has also been on for above-average amounts of time over its lifetime, making the 8 years seem like a fairly long time. Yesterday I came back home to see it off and not turning on again. The weird...

So, yesterday i installed i new gpu (gtx 1660 ti) into my old pc until i wait for rest of the pc to come. Old pc specs (fx 6300, 8gb ram ddr3). Everything worked normal, i played some games, tested the gpu. The next morning (today) pc wont boot, wont show post screen. I assumed that gpu is the...

Hello, it's been awhile since I've posted on here, but I would like the community's opinion on M.2 SSd, Sata 3 SSD, longevity. I know that will very depending on read and writes, but I'm more interested in the components themselves that make up the chips on the the pcb's. Such as, resisters...

Hi There :) I've got an issue with my PC and trying to work through what to test next. I cant replicate the fault every time but it seems to happen when load is put on the machine. I had the machine running idle for 3.5 hours with no issues however it will go dark about 15 minutes into a game...

A friend of mine gave me a Dell Inspiron P91G001 laptop for free as suddenly the computer would not output to either the screen or HDMI, and the keys would light up for about 5 seconds before the computer would shut down. There are no led flashes showing on the charging port. When I opened it...

I was going to recover an old SSD with some bitcoins in it. Not much, but enough to spend some time on it (USD 3k). I put the hdd into one PSU, and the HDD sata into computer using another psu. Not sure if this was the reason, but it burned something (close to the power supply) on the HDD. See...

Hello All, Been one heck of a couple weeks. I was plagued with a system crash and on reboot I was greeted with the orange DRAM light on the MB. I did some basic trouble shooting, trying single ram sticks in every slot combination, went and bought a new ram kit from Best Buy and still the same...

Hi guys, I've just recently built my new pc, except for the gpu which is the PowerColor R9 390X DEVIL - which is 5-6years old. When I turn on the computer, straight away the gpu would make a horrible loud grinding noise and this is not coming from the fan side of the gpu! The display would...

Hey all. Just made an account here because I’m having issues with my Rig. About a month ago I upgraded my CPU to a Ryzen 5900x. For the first couple of days I had no issues with my upgrade. However, I noticed when playing Tarkov sometimes that my computer would freeze up. Sometimes just...

Hello, I've been having issues with my computer recently after installing some case fans. Before I installed them, I would be able to play a game called "GTFO" on steam with my friends. I started bluescreening consistently after installing the case fans while playing this game. My friends...

I built my computer almost 8 months ago. While my pc is running, and usually while i am browsing through the web or my files, i will hear a single "beep" from the case, two or three or more times with at least a minute in beetwen. If i restart my pc, most likely i will not hear any more beeps...

Hello all, I currently have an old machine which controls a CNC machine, it runs Windows 7 Pro and is set up in such a way that it's not entirely possible to replicate it and setting something up new would cost a lot of money i would rather avoid spending. It is currently experiencing regular...

Hi guys, my system just crashed and now won't boot. I've read through alot of similar threads with more or less same problem with one of them pointing towards a dead mobo. I still wanted to get an answer here from people more experienced than I. So I have a system I've built for my dad. It...

Hey, two years ago my old laptop's internal HDD presumably fried and the computer stopped detecting it. I've held onto it ever since then because I was pretty confident I could somehow recover the data, but never have. The fact that I've been able to procrastinate on working with it for two...

I bought all components and assembled a new PC. The problem is that when I start it nothing happens. The computer beeps 5 times. Screen doesn't show any image, it doesn't even start. All looks perfectly fine. I use Gigabyte motherboard and as I googled, 5 beeps mean processor failure. I even...

Hey Today after windows update my gaming laptop started to show weird colors like pixels after I started to play a game. What happened to my laptop, can it be because windows update had an negative effect on my screen because this happened right after the update. These colorful pixels show...

Is it almost gurantted that the aio's fan or pump will fail first before there being a leakage failure? Will an AIOs pump/fan fail around the same time as a normal cpu fan because they have similar warranties? Basically, will an aio be just as safe as a fan if I use them till they stop working?
