I've had performance problems since I upgraded to the 2070 Super (almost 3 years ago). It seems to work fine in some situations, like when running benchmarks like Userbenchmark or Heaven benchmark. But in other use cases, like games it just doesn't want to run 100% and gets bad fps because of...

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing an issue with my system where, after turning off the PC and then powering it back on, the fans spin at full speed for around 20 seconds. After that, I see the AMI BIOS "posted into safe mode" screen, and I have to press F1 to enter the BIOS. Sometimes the PC never...

Long story short, one of my siblings snagged a Ryzen 7 5700X3D and wanted me to upgrade his pre-built PC. Soon enough, we found out that we couldn't; even though his motherboard supports AM4 CPUs, it only allows upgrades to certain AM4 CPUs for some reason. Still, he's deadset on that cpu, so...

Hello, friends! The computer was not disassembled, everything worked fine without problems, but one day I came home, when I tried to turn it on, it stopped starting... Nothing burned out inside, everything is perfectly whole and new. I tried to connect a new power supply - the same thing. I...

Hello, just last night I had taken my CPU fan off to apply some more thermal paste and after I had secured it back on and plugged the fan on I’ve been getting those error lights from the motherboard I’ve reseated the RAM, checked the CPU (nothing bent or dirty), and nothings wrong with the fan...

I recently upgraded to the Asus RTX 4070 Super from the 1660 Ti but the problem is that my CPU can't keep up with it. I have an Intel i5-9400 along with an Asus Rog Maximus XI mobo, and with the new market and so much scope for upgrades I dont know what to get since I'm going to need a new CPU...

Hello, Forgive the title, but I truly don’t know what to do anymore and need advice. I’m not sure if I’m posting this in the right space, but I had to start somewhere. I’ll do my best to explain the issue. DISCLAIMER: I wrote a long text and gave it to chatgpt to format it better and hopefully...

Hey everyone, I was having an issue with my pc not posting when turning it on. (Happened maybe 2 out of 5 times) Saw a post saying resetting cmos could help. After doing this, it shot me straight into bios and won’t let me leave. Through some digging it’s not showing my bootable drive. It was...

I can then also reconnect my...

Ok so if I boot my PC from sleep it crashes after a couple of seconds it acts as if I hit restart. Im pretty sure this is a hardware problem because I've put in a ssd from a working PC, and also reinstalled windows with it still crashing in the end. Im pretty sure it's not the RAM or GPU...

Waking up from sleep/shut down results in a black screen until I force shut down the PC by holding the power button, which I don't think is a good thing to do regularly. But regularly doesn't even cut it. I can't even recreate the problem. Sometimes when I shutdown/sleep it would work just fine...

Hi, I have a new 2024 ASUS Tuf Gaming A16 Advantage Edition, and I recently swapped out the RAM for a new set. Now, after opening any particularly intensive games that in theory my laptop should be more than capable of playing the RAM begins buzzing, and after a short period it forces the...

The title is pretty self-explanatory, the thing goes like this, my PC is not even 1 year old, all my components have updated drivers/bios, and my OS is also up to date, everything is clean, and thermal paste has been changed 1 month ago, so there shouldn't be any problem. But, a few weeks ago I...

NEED HELP! Hello, I just built a pc for the first time in a few years. I was able to install windows just fine. I then changed a bios setting “network stack” to try to fix the onboard WiFi, this caused my boot to fail. I should also add that every time I booted my system up from beginning I...

Recently I upgraded to a 4070 Ti Super and a R7 5700X3D. I can't recall if i had this issue before i upgraded my CPU, which was about a month after my GPU. But Ive been having issues with Discord, Firefox, and alt-tabbing in general. Discord will very often "fragment" and be split into tiles...

Working on putting together a gaming PC. System POSTs and I can reach the BIOS just fine. Fans are spinning and LEDs on the case are on. All in all, seems like things are good. However, when I try to boot to the USB stick that I made with the Windows 11 Creation Media, I am met with a blue...

Hi, I've not been keeping up to date with what is required for a decent build (and it seems to be a lot more expensive). My friend wants a PC for <£800 and she wants it to run BG3, and probably some future FromSoftware games. I'm tempted to save on the CPU and Mobo and get the 5600 and B550, and...

Hi guys, merry christmas to everyone. I've been having this issue since I installed a RX 5500 XT 8GB. First, I thought the problem was because of the TV (still might be). So, today I attempted to turn on the PC with the TV on, it didn't boot. After that, I turned the TV off and started the PC...
