Hi, last summer I built my first gaming PC after so many years, and I wanted it to have the best components I could afford. But after so many months I still think that it is underperforming, and I don't know why. The components are: -CPU: AMD Ryzen 7-5800X -GPU: AMD RX 6900XT -Motherboard...

Hello! I have been using the same computer I built over 10 years ago (with the help of this forum) and it has still been running fairly well but I think it is time for an upgrade. Lately it just can't quite keep up with the games I want to play like Apex Legends and other newer titles. It can...

I didn’t know what thread forum to use so I’m on displays because nothing will display on my new build. My ram leds work but the monitor I plugged it into doesn’t. I think it’s something with the bios but I have no idea how to fix please help

Hey all, I posted earlier asking whether I could upgrade my geriatric system (posted below) but from the responses it seemed best that I dive into a new build instead. I'm on a bit of a budget with this so I'm hoping to use as much of what I have as possible (storage, RAM, case, etc) Current...

Hey all, I'm a bit out of touch with technology honestly, I've recently restarted work as a 3D modeller after several years away from the industry and I was hoping I'd be able to upgrade this old workhorse as much as I can.

Hi, I am building a new system and I am going nuts over the fact that I want to buy an AMD Ryzen 5 5600x but I want to know the stepping of the one I will buy due to mobo BIOS version support differences. I can not find any helpful way to understand which steeping, that being either B0 or B2...

Hi, i recently purchased an MSI MPG B505 GAMING PLUS motherboard for a new build I am working on. I have two CPUs in mind. However, they both support different BIOS versions for this motherboard. Is there a way for me to find out what BIOS version my motherboard came shipped with without having...

So I recently built a PC back in February of 2021. It was more of an upgrade but it required me removing my old motherboard in place of a new one alone with new CPU, PSU, RAM, and Aftermarket CPU cooler. I live in an apartment complex in Stockholm and plug the PC directly into the wall. Recently...

Sorry guys, I know this question is everywhere already. I have specific issues that are further down the line than just deciding what rank total my RAMs are or what timings. My true goals are simple: Upgrading to Ryzen 5900x and also upgrading RAM capacity to 32gb. ESSENTIALLY. Issue: I am a...

Hello. I have a brand new PC Build that keeps crashing in games. This happens oddly enough only with Origin games (for as far as I know): Apex Legends and Star Wars Battlefront II. When I was playing Overwatch, it didn't crash. The crashes happen mid-game. So not in the menu or whatever. I have...

Good day, I'm currently creating a build, and I need a power supply with the extra 4 pin ATX connector not just the standard 8 pin. Now some of you might be thinking, "You don't need that, that is just for extreme overclocking, and it will be unnecessary for the everyday user". Well, yeah...

Hi guys! I have a quick question. I have the Gigabyte Aorus RTX 3080 xtreme and I want to know which cables I have to buy for it. The PSU I have is the Corsair RM850X (2021). Currently I am going to use the 3 6+2 pin connectors that came with the PSU. I haven't build it yet. So if I want...

I am a competitive Fortnite gamer and am in need of a 240 hz experience but I can’t get that high of fps. I am sometimes at 180 fps and sometimes at 240. It really depends.

Hi guys, This is my first build, and I apologize in advance for anything dumb I might say… also, sorry for the length! I am new and I’m not sure which details are relevant. So the main issue is only the motherboard lights seem to work. Even the case fans directly connected to the PSU are not...

Hey fellow members, A little story but bear with me. So I've been thinking of getting a prebuilt from a US system integrator for quite some time. However since I am not living in the US, the prebuilt would be shipped on a very long route. Despite most providers having stellar packaging and...

Hi. Im building my first PC. I bought Palit RTX 3070 Jetstream OC. I am going to pair it with a Ryzen 5 5600x. Some people say 650W power supply is good but some other people suggest that I go for a 750w instead. I almost ordered a Gigabyte PSU but I read some terrible reviews about them. I am...

Good evening, I've just ordered after much research the following items for a new PC build (excluding the GPU 'RTX 2080ti' as I already own this and the tower) and I was wondering if I'd spent my money wisely? I was torn between Intel and AMD - like lots of people I'm sure. So, have I spent my...
