I feel like a case can really make or break a build. Or at least your enjoyment of it. My specs are below, but I sort of picked a case at random. I’m looking for suggestions....
Not sure if this is the right place to post this but thought it might help some people, or at least be entertaining....
Have been building up this PC over the past couple years. Runs well but am trying to figure out what the best upgrade would be at this point. My guess is memory, but I’m not sure. Budget is flexible but would like to stay under $300. Thanks!...
Hi everyone,...
Hello! I have chosen some parts for a PC based around a monitor I currently have. I have a 4k monitor and the games I’d like to play on it and the current PC I have isn’t cutting it anymore unfortunately....
Simply put I have built a gaming tower that I have no monitor that will connect with the machine only having a BIOS and no OS. As I understand it, I need something that will connect with an HDMI cable, but that seems to be either a traditional monitor or a tablet. I’m completely unsure which would be more stable, and therefore...
Hey all,...
I’m currently waiting for all the components for my PC upgrade to arrive. Got the motherboard today and immediately upon opening, I noticed that the CMOS battery was not in its slot but just kind of next to it loose on top of the board. The slot seems fine, it seems to fit securely in there. No scratches on the board either....

Anyone got any recommendations or warnings about specific hdd / ssd / storage brands or models at the moment? Thinking about buying another drive instead of being smart and cleaning up my files. I've been pretty happy with Samsung but I've heard they had a clunker of a drive with high failure rates lately. HDD, SSD and I think I...

I’m in the market for a new monitor. It’ll be used for gaming and browsing, but also light graphic design/video editing and lots of email- and document-writing, some spreadsheets, etc. My graphics work is not very color sensitive, and I have a “normal” $100 IPS monitor on the side to compare....
I want to build a linux PC for digial audio and home network storage....
Hi all!...
I’ve got $90 to blow. I’m basically rich now. What should I upgrade? Uses are software development, vms, jellyfin, nas, local llms and occasional gaming. I haven’t had issues with the psu but I’m thinking a name brand gold rated psu could be good. Otherwise 32gb more of ram?...
I needed a PC to test a PCIe card recently, so I put something together with some spare parts. The only PSU I had around was a corsair CX750M I took from a prebuild from about 2014-2015, one with the green labels. Searching around the internet I see loads of people saying not to buy them, but what about one I already have? How...
And can they easily be replaced?...
Hey Lemmy, I need some recommendations for a CPU-intensive slightly mobile rig. I run a lot of engineering simulations and I need a computer that I can move between my home and work on a semi-frequent basis. I’m looking for something more powerful than a laptop and I’ll have monitors/peripherals at both locations. Maybe a...
My PC is getting on a little, it’s running on an i7-4790k, 16gb ddr4, and a GTX 970. right now, it’s struggling some in most games even though I don’t play any triple A titles. What would be a sensible upgrade that wouldn’t get totally bottlenecked by the CPU?...
Laptop battery recently died, and I’m planning a new PC build anyway, so I’m wondering: can I just remove the HDD from my laptop and connect it to the motherboard? Would I need any extra parts or hardware? I’m guessing no, but it’s hard to research on my phone. Any guidance is appreciated :) thanks!
Please let me know if there's a better place to seek information /answers....
anyone here has those? i’m kinda budget constrained, i need a quiet sfx psu, heard lian li one are kinda loud
I’m looking to replace the HDD on an HP Pavilion dv 6 6130-us. It has an i-3 2330M CPU. I know it’s old as dirt, but I’d like to use it to run old games. It’s also the only thing I own with a CD drive....
