Just recently built a new computer. This is my 3rd build. I've been playing on it for awhile. The first crash was right after I built it. I loaded a game of league of legends, I was in for a minute or so and then bam. Rebooted, didn't happen again. Been playing for about 2.5 weeks now with no...

Hey. So I purchased a brand new Kraken x53 for my new build. Upon putting everything together and starting it up for the first time, everything looked great at first.

Hi, I just completed my first PC build. I wasn’t able to get a GPU, so I went with integrated graphics. I was somewhat on a budget, but I’m happy that it’s able to work. It took me approximately a day to complete. However, when I plugged in the HDMI and DisplayPort cables, I’m still receiving no...

Hey folks :) My PC recently went bust (well overdue for a new model anyway) in the middle of the college year and I need to get a new build put together ASAP for programming. I'm on a short term budget but will be able to add to the build over the coming months so for the time being I'm planning...

Hi everyone! I've spent the past months reading these forums and troubleshooting, simply trying to get an OS to boot on my first PC build, with no luck :( I've tried Win10 and Ubuntu, properly formatted with Rufus. The result is always some sort of hardware error, such as a Pagination Fault or...

I built my first pc 2 weeks ago and the build was going fine everything plugged in powers on but then, i get no display and no post. I bought a little mobo speaker to find out the beep codes for trouble shooting and didnt get any, i feel like i’ve tried everything, so i hope you guys can help...

I just build a PC and I am very novice to PCs so feel free to laugh. My new build boots up with case fans, as well as fans on the gpu spinning. The rgb on my ram and another light on the motherboard light up, however nothing shows up on the display and there is no power going to my mouse and...

Years ago I was given this model laptop by my employer. Both I and my wife are deeply in love with its keyboard. It's a joy to type on and literally the only laptop keyboard I have ever managed to use comfortably and even type without looking at the keys. This is why I would like to know from...

I’m trying to build a PC for $600 without the monitor, keyboard or mouse. I don’t know anything about pc builds and I was wondering if there are builds I can do for about $600 roughly that makes a decent computer that can handle games as well as be a regular computer.

Apologies about pestering you all again. It's been awhile, and I had to change what case to get yet again. I think I'll return to my first choice which was the Antec 302 case, although I'm still not sure that the PSU I have will fit - conflicting info. How many fans should I use in the case...

Hi, I have a pretty old system and would appreciate if someone could tell me if it's still worth upgrading or if I should think about changing the whole setup. Since I initially got this build like 10 years ago I only upgraded the memory, PSU and the GPU twice. Here are my specs: MB: Asus...

First timer building a PC for son. Had trouble with power when connected all parts. Did the screwdriver test and no power on mother board. Replaced motherboard, PSU, and CPU. Tested new PSU (ARESGAME AGV650 Bronze) and fan moved worked just fine. Connected new CPU (AMD RYZEN 5 5600G w/Raiden...

I've just built my first pc and everything is working well EXCEPT my monitor has these fuzzy lines going across the screen diagonally. My best guess (I'm still new at this) is the graphics card cant keep up with the pixel demand. I've updated all the drivers (multiple times) done factory...

I've decided on the CPU and motherboard but am fatigued after researching what RAM to choose. For a new build, I'm going with the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G CPU and the MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk. I'll be using the CPU's built-in graphics instead of buying a discrete graphics card. I do not intend to...

I'm planning a new build using the Ryzen 5700G, 16GB RAM (tbd) and the MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk. I plan to re-use my existing HDs and CD/DVD drive - a total of 3 SATA devices. I'm not so sure about the case (an older Antec with 3 5.25 external bays, multiple internal 3.5 bays and 2 x USB 2.0...

I built my first pc today. Everything went fine until I turned it on for the first time. I noticed my wraith prism cooler was loud. So I installed core temp to check the temperature of my cpu. It showed 50 on idle. I immediately removed my cooler and reapplied new thermal paste and installed my...

Apologies if my post is OT for this forum group. Couldn't figure most appropriate group. I'm thinking of building a new pc. I would like to use either the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G or the Ryzen 5 5600G because they have built-in graphics. I'd prefer not having to buy a graphics card if I don't...

Hi everyone, I finally decided to build my first pc after wanting it for so long. I've put together a list with components for my pc-build. I would like to get some advice on it, since it is my first time building one. I really don't want to get anything wrong (mismatches/components which are...

I recently finished building a PC and when I went to turn it on, everything working fine except for the case fan. It has 2 cables attached to the fan and only one will actually fit any pins on the motherboard, but yet it won't get any power to start spinning. Motherboard is a "Gigabyte B450M...
