I've noticed ever since I reinstalled windows that my computer does this thing where my games will be running fine, until my CPU usage will suddenly go way down, accompanied by my framerate doing the same. My temps never really exceed 70C. I've noticed when it's performing well, usage is...

I recently installed a new SSD (Seagate BarraCuda 2TB) and PSU (MSI MPG A1000G). On my SSD, I am dual booting Ubuntu and Windows. At the beginning everything was running perfectly fine, but then all of a sudden after about 2 weeks or so my computer has drastically slowed down. I took at look and...

Greetings, I just got this air of thought about what happens to the old BIOS version of a motherboard, does it get sandwiched? Like does the new version of a BIOS lays itself on top of the old one? Or does the old BIOS version and everything about it gets deleted and gets completely replaced...

Hello! As the title proclaims, I have suspicions regarding the performance of my newely acquired RTX 4080. I upgraded from an RTX 2080 Ti, and from what I can say right away, the performance is already a lot better on the new card(In certain aspects!). But, my suspicions arise from the likes of...

When I built my PC I had a 1070ti with an i7-8700k on a ROG STRIX Z370-F GAMING motherboard. I've always felt like my PC was underperforming especially compared to my friends with worse parts. When I built the PC I had to run the RAM sticks next to each other because some of the slots are faulty...

Hello, 2 weeks ago I bought an i5 12600KF processor with a Gigabyte B660M DSH3 DDR4. The issue has been that the performance on gaming has been really bad, even comparing to my old 9600k and a bit worse even. So I decided to check and do some benchmarks. The temperatures are good, moving...

Hello everyone, I have run into a problem with my GPU performance, and the fact that I am making a forum post about it means I am truely desperate. First some background: I have recently dug out my mid-range gaming PC from around 2016 to play some old and newer games. It had not been used in...

Whenever I boot up a game and leave it open for long (like 15-to 20 minutes) without issuing any commands, games stutter regardless of the game's system requirements and maximum FPS I can get from the said game starts to lag . (for example If I'm getting maximum of 75 FPS in a game and go AFK...

Read online that Windows has a built in tool called winsat you can use to test disk performance, where you "winsat -disk drive c" to test your c drive. Is that reliable to use just like that to confirm you're getting the speeds out of a M.2 drive that manufacturers advertise on their website...

Hey. I recently upgraded my PC by replacing my GTX 1080 with an MSI Suprim X 3080 (10G LHR). I also bought a better power supply (Corsair RM850X) and case (Lian Li Lancool II Mesh) to accommodate the card. After installing the GPU, my in-game performance has been awful. It's a laggy and...

I had never used 3dmark before today and wanted an opinion on my results, as Radeon Software has been telling me I am getting "marginal" performance out of my system. Are these figures good?

Hello, so I recently installed Windows 11 to try out but had a really bad experience. I installed some games to see the gaming performance and it was really poor. While gaming on Windows 11, I checked that in the Task Manager, my game was using GPU Copy Engine. I did plenty of nitpicking and in...

Hi all, I will try to summarize, I bought Elden Ring because I read the PC requirements and I should be able to play it in Maximum with no problem at all, but when I try it, the game keeps having a lot of FPS drop (usually from 60 to 40 FPS, but even 15 FPS sometimes). I read that that this...

If I plug a PCIe 4x sound card (soundblaster AE-5 Plus) into a PCIe 4.0 1x slot, will the sound card's performance be severely downgraded?

Greetings, As I have said in the title, does a lower refresh rate also cap your FPS to that refresh rate? I'm having a problem with my GPU recently, I get flickers when I set the refresh rate of my monitor to 144hz, but when I lower it to 120hz, I don't get it frequently. Got curious if my FPS...
