Hi, I just bought an i5-12600k and I’m needing to buy a graphics card, I was wondering if it’s best to wait till Black Friday or cyber Monday to buy or if I should just go ahead n go for one on eBay?
Not sure what discounts I should be expecting to get on cyber Monday or Black Friday
Went from 9600k to 12600k about 3 months ago.
I leave games running for weeks until beat them. I just put the computer to sleep.
Before upgrading I played “rdr2” and “ac: origins” rarely exiting the games and never crashing. Since upgrading I have played “death stranding” and “Spider-Man...
Hello.
I wanted to upgrade my GFs components as I had some older parts laying around. More specifically I wanted to upgrade the CPU.
My old i3 9100f should do the trick for her gaming needs.
Now, the MOBO def needed an upgrade as the socket was a mismatch, so I just picked up a cheap used...

I have a 6 pin next to the 24pin on my motherboard but there’s only one six pin cable coming out of one end from...
Hello,
I create this post because by removing my processor I broke and twisted pins (see photos), on an Asus Z690-A Gaming. I would like to know if there is a chance that it still works or if I have to change the motherboard?

Alright,
so I bought an RTX 3090 Ti along with a 1000W EVGA PSU and installed them both a couple of days ago. At first I was playing games like normal for a day or so and everything was fine. (I updated my drivers for everything after installing the new card btw) a day later when my PC started...
Hey there, my newly built PC won't turn on at all. All the components are brand new.
However, when the PSU is turned on, the RGB lights on the mobo do turn on for a few seconds, but pressing the power button does nothing: no fans are spinning nor any other lights are turning on (of course...
After 5 years my computer recently started turning off 10-15 seconds after powering it on and I can't seem to figure out which part of my pc is broken. When I first turned my pc on the red led lights on the mobo flashed in this order in a quick succession, cpu, ram, cpu, ram, stays on vga for a...
Hello everyone! I thinking of upgrading my I7-7700k and my Asrock z270 pro 4 motherboard (This motherboard doesn't support any higher generation). What would you advise to upgrade to? What is the most worthy affordable option? And if I sell my used motherboard and CPU. How much can i sell it for...
So lately i have been searching motherboards in Amazon for an I7-7700 non K, but couldn't really find any aside from some chinese vendors that don't look reliable.
Now, i'm asking you guys, what do you recommend in motherboards for a kaby lake i7 processor.
My friend has been running into issues with his pc randomly rebooting. He took it to a shop and it was there for 3 weeks. The motherboard was replaced but when he got it back the issue persist. I have been trying to help him over the internet since I can't go in person to inspect the pc. I had...
Hello there! I have overclocked my CPU a while ago. And I only managed to get my i7-7700k from 4.2ghz to 4.4ghz. The temps where fine as well as the voltage. But I couldn't get it stable past that point, my screen froze while stress testing. I wanted to tryout some VENGEANCE LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB)...
My friends ssd is no longer being found as a boot device or at all in the bios. I've swapped the ports and still nothing. I've updated bios and still nothing. The ssd is a team group one and it's only been used for about 2 months. But it was working perfectly fine. She left for a few days and...

Hello,
I recently noticed that my 3200G, while gaming, even on not so heavy games, reaches 1.5v core voltage, and accordingly the temps go up too, even reaching 80-85 on heavier games, almost reaching 90 while benchmarking.
Everything in the BIOS is on auto, except for a little oc on the iGPU...
