Mini-Tower

Hello, so I have this very odd issue that I have still yet to find anything somewhat similar. My specs are ryzen 7 1700 (not overclocked), gtx 1080, and 2666mhz ram 16gb. The issue I’m almost certain is not hardware related but rather some bios setting or other setting(I have a ASRock x370...

My answer may be in the title but I’m new at this so I want to make sure. My motherboard specs says up to 2666MHz and I didn’t realize this like a dummy and bought 3000MHz. It’s a new build and it just keeps restarting every time I turn the computer on. I ordered 2666MHz just now hoping this...

When I turned on my computer today it went straight to BIOS without me prompting it to. I restarted and again it went straight to BIOS. After looking at some threads to troubleshoot the issue I believe it may be a problem with my boot drive, a SanDisk 240gb SSD, as when I boot from my HDD, a...

I want to set up a 4 monitor set up for trading stocks. I do not need an expensive GPU to run 3D graphics. I read an article that the best way to achieve this is to use 2 lower tier cards instead of 1 gaming or workstation GPU. If I have 2 GPU's (GT 730's) will I be able to get a 4 monitor set...

Ok. I have this extremely weird issue where my PC "skips" for lack of a better term. Basically, what happens is when ever I'm doing multiple things at once I get brief instances of slow down. Everything slows at once, audio cuts in and out making it sound like static, if I'm watching a movie it...

Hello guys! When I am playing games, I am monitoring my hardware's stats with MSI Afterburner. And I see that at GPU it shows LIM voltage, and I am wondering what does it mean? I didn't overclock my card, just monitoring. Do I need to change my PSU, or nothing to worry about it?

I got one of these on ebay because it was offered in a bundle in a set for other cables I needed. I don't need it, it was just cheaper to buy the cables in the bundle with this rather than buy the cables separately. So, I thought I try to put it in my PCIe x1 slot with a USB flash drive...

Hello there I recently updated my bios, and everything was going smooth. Until I went into my bios, and saw that my CPU vcore was waaaay higher than I had set it before, obviously because my BIOS was now reset. So I changed it back, to where I had it before at 1.180 vcore. Tried to run a...
