New Builder

So I’m very new to the PC community and have only had a potato prebuilt for about a year, and am finally thinking about building my own. However, i’m having some problems figuring certain things out. I don’t know if the motherboard i’m thinking of buying (MSI MAG Z690 TOMAHAWK) has enough fan...

Hi! Sorry if this is not the right thread, but it seemed fitting for the problem that I'm having. So, I recently upgraded my RAM to 32 GB from a 16 GB kit that I bought about a year ago. I made sure to double check the speed and timings of this new 16 GB (8GBx2) kit so that it matched with the...

Hi all, This is my first completely independent PC build, and I'm afraid I may have run into some component compatibility issues. My GPU (Nitro 5700xt) requires two 8 pin connections, however my PSU (Seasonic Focus 750) only has one PCI/E output. Here is the PSU page link...

Hey guys, I have just finished my build 2 days ago. When I power up the pc all system/cooler fans turn on led works, and the gpu spins up, but I get no display, screen just stays black. I have checked all wires, removed and reattached them. Cmos and jumper reset. Removed everything piece by...

So recently I tried to install new ram into my computer that was of the same size m, frequency, and it was the exact same model but it came in separate packages. Once I plugged it in, they were recognized by the computer but the computer worked a bit slower and my gpu update wouldn’t work as...

So I'm a first-time pc builder/part chooser and I'm not quite sure which one of these to go for I've compiled them into pc part picker and I'll link them, but on the left is 3 options of parts. Any help on which would be good. The only difference is storage levels but I don't know whether to go...

So I ordered some RAM that will arrive this Monday, i have the rest of the parts on hand. Can I build the rest of the system early so when the ram arrives i can just put it in and boot the PC?

I bought a ryzen 5 2600x recently and it came, ok good so far. But the side which displays the cpu has no protective case! Is this a problem? Thanks!

Hello, I have been trying to learn how to build a PC and I'm at the point where I'm trying to start the PC up and install an OS. When it starts up, the computer takes a few moments, and then beeps once, and then beeps twice. I'm not sure what's wrong. I had read online that for my mobo this...

Well, £27 including postage. I've always wanted a small-form PC so I bought this one on eBay just to mess around with and then I'll sell it on or give it away. It's just a toy. But what can I really do with it apart from use it as a door-stop? I suppose that's why it was £20. It does come with...

Howdy! Recently overhauled my PC with a new 750W power supply and a new graphics card, and to make the system more well rounded overall, I'd like to upgrade my RAM as well. I currently have two 2GB DDR3 sticks. Ideally I'd like to have two 4GB DDR3 sticks. I'm curious as to how I can determine...
