So, about early january my work laptop started having screen flickering/flashing. Much more noticeable when watching videos fullscreen, it occured randomly, it may run for hours and suddenly the issue appeared. It would show severe tearing, and a garbled screen or just displaying part of the...

I'm hessitant to buy a Ryzren 7 5700x3d So I have a Gigabyte B550 mb and I was hoping to pair it with a 5700G or 5700x. In my search I found a 5700x3d, I know they are hard to find nowadays but are a great alternative to a 5800x3d. Thing is it's almost twice the price of the 5700x It would be...

So I have a friend who I recently changed his dead mobo. An Asus B550 with a Ryzen 5600G and a GTX1080. I setup everything, installed windows, updated mobo/gpu drivers and everything seemed fine. So today he installed WoW and upon start it would reboot the PC, no BSOD, just instant reboot...

So a few days ago I noticed that my work laptop which I use mostly at home, is having a weird wifi issue If I disconnect the laptop from the AC outlet, it will loose wifi (even on a full charge), it will show as its connected but you can't surf or use the network at all, for example Facebook...

So a friend of mine's hp laptop just died, he wants to swap the SSD from it to a Dell. The HP is intel and the Dell is AMD, but that's not the problem. The thing is I assume secure boot won't make it easy (possible?), what should I do for it to work? To clarify, the idea is to use the hp...

So I'm checking a friend's PC that won't boot. Its a gigabyte B550 mobo coupled with a Ryzen 5 5600G The pc will turn on, fans will spin, but it won't boot, I tested the ram PSU,, SSD and videocard separately and they all work fine. Thing is the CPU will not get hot at all, also the PC won't...

So my son's PC started having stability issues, every now and then it would freeze for a few seconds then come back, but a couple of times it went BSOD. I figured it might be the ram so I opened the case it only has 16gb DDR4 stick, the case/mobo was quite dusty, so I cleaned it. I cleaned the...

Gaming revenue is less than 8% of its total earnings, which incidentally went down 11% compared to last year

When DLSS was first announced it promised IQ every bit as good as native. Far from it, there were numerous issues like ghosting, smear and blurriness. Then DLSS 2 came out and it was a great improvement delivering IQ that in some instances almost matched native. Still the same issues while...

https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/rtx-5080-slower-than-rtx-4090/ Going for specs alone and the performance delta between the RTX5090 and 4090, there was no way the RTX5080 would beat the 4090.

Is it possible to replace the polarized film on a LCD TV? Its an old LG 32" LCD TV that apparently was hit from direct sunlight while stored. The film cracked and peeled but otherwise its fine so I figured maybe I can replace it. Can it be done? Where can I get it?

So I have an old E-350 Tosiba laptop which I got from my sister. Its quite slow, the CPU just can't handle pretty much anything. I tried some tips on optimizing windows but didn't make a difference. Also tried Linux Mint as its supposed to perform well on lesser machines, well, it was pretty...

I have an old toshiba laptop E-350 with 6gb of ram. Windows is quite sluggish to say the least so I figured I could try linux. I use it mostly for RDP, browsing, some youtube and excel. I tried linux mint as I heard its pretty good on slow machines. Installation was easy but surprisngly it...

So my sis gave me an old toshiba laptop with an E-350 APU, it runs reasonably well but it has a weird sound problem the sound only works for a few seconds to a couple of minutes after startup, after I reboot or powercycle the sound comes back, again just for a little time. Sometimes it comes...

I had a HDD fail, fortunately I was able to recover everything. Thing is the HDD I recovered into also failed, the partition appears as raw, but every now and then it just works. Is there any way to fix the partition? CHKDSK doesn't work as it says the partition is RAW. I already have a...

I want to clone a SATA SSD into a M.2 SSD but I just can't boot from a USB stick so I can't use clonezilla. Every "Free" cloning software I have found can't use the cloning part unless you buy. Any suggestions?

So people got their hopes up with the 7900XTX going head to head with the RTX4090. That's just not gonna happen. There were some rumors that Navi31 wouldn't be as fast as initially thought. And now AMD's Frank Azor said in an interview they are aiming to compete with the RTX4080. And given...

Unlaunching The 12GB 4080 By NVIDIA on October 14, 2022 | Featured StoriesGeForce RTX GPUs The RTX 4080 12GB is a fantastic graphics card, but it’s not named right. Having two GPUs with the 4080 designation is confusing. So, we’re pressing the “unlaunch” button on the 4080 12GB. The RTX 4080...

I finally installed my RTX3070Ti. Sorry no more pics but I got pretty busy moving everything to a new case and installing the card. Stupid me thought everything would run on first try, but hey it worked on 2nd try. Haven't closed the case yet, "just in case" :p :p Tnx David_Schroth, me and...

My 14yo nephew finally convinced his parents to get him a gaming laptop. Budget is $800 bucks but with the current market I told them realistically $900 would be better (still tight though) I found this one on amazon, looks good. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09P1VX622/?tag=thefpsreview-20 Any...
