Hello all, recently I've been seeing weird behavior from my PC. The screen would sleep during the boot process, I couldn't go to or even see the BIOS after creating a new profile with settings both for my Win7 OS and Win10 OS. The display would come back once I booted into the OS just fine so I...

I think I finally got my rig nailed, but I'm curious if my current RAM (G.Skill Aegis 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16) could be improved OR if any change would result only in an abysmal improvement. Would I be able to tell a difference at all? Cheers on this glorious summer day! Here are my...

Hi there, just installed a new RTX 3060 and i don't see much of an improvement in performance from my 1060. Thinking it's maybe the older motherboard/cpu and I did experience some lag and crashing when in the BIOS so could that be the issue? I've clean reinstalled drivers, CPU/Motherboard/RAM...

Has anyone done any research on the effect (or lack thereof) of different DDR5 speed and timings on Raptor Lake 13th Gen Intel CPUs? I'm curious if there's any notable difference between 5200, 6000, 6800, 7600, etc. I saw that AMD Ryzen 4 recommends 6000 MHz as the sweet spot, wit anything less...

So I've had this problem for a while now where my monitor will turn off and on again randomly, it could be while watching a video or playing a game, and then after it does that a few times it then doesn't turn on again.
