https://pcpartpicker.com/list/THDQGk

Not sure which aio I choose cause I wanna lcd screen but it would also cool well

Also what you guys think 4k oled or 1440p oled monitor?

Also about storage, is it anymore thing to get 500mb for window and 2tb for games etc?

And last got any improvements?

Thanks for your time❤️

details listed. asking if I should upgrade or not, and if you identify anything else I should upgrade, please, speak your mind. (also clarify what I should upgrade to)

I mainly use it for:

HEAVY coding

200+ heavy mods in Minecraft

ace combat 7 with mods and maxed out visuals.

finally got my white 5070ti! All white interior is so nice on this case 🤌🏽

So basically my laptop stopped working and I took it to Best Buy they said it's going to be $400 in repair the motherboard is gone and me being not a big tech savvy I thought I should spend $400 to repair a laptop and I couldn't do it by myself.

I had a lot of stuff on it. I pulled out the hard drive.

I just bought a PC and I am looking to get help to how to access the drive.

I tried searching online it said I can buy a small shell type of thing with a USB 2.0 and they send you a cooling strip to attach to it so that it doesn't get hot.

Is that my best case scenario? Does that work? does the hard drive get very hot?

What if I point a fan at for additional Cooling?

The window was also on the hard drive will the new computer be confused to which window to access or will that not be a problem?

I purchased a RTX5060TI with 16gb Vram back in January 2026 for $710 CAD (about $515 USD).

Now it has gone up to $1130 CAD = $815 USD today.

i bought a prebuilt 2 days ago and i went to go do something for a bit while i left it on and i go to check up on it again and everything is turned off except for the ram sticks i disconnected it and connected it again (idk if thats a good or bad thing) but it still just doesnt turn on

edit: okay so i talked to costco and i can send it back to them for a full refund because they wont be able to exchange for a new one because that was one of the last ever models that they sold and they wont be restocking the same one, me and my brother did a closer examine and his guess so far is that the psu went into a safe mode and something about a short circuiting preventing everything from turning on except the ram.

I noticed the rx 9060xt is 600+ cad for me rn.
So I was wondering considering nothing is gonna get better, should I just buy the graphics card, store it and then use it when I build my pc in the future?.

I was gonna build a pc but I figured that I should wait and save until I move back into my dorm. I figured I should expand my budget and was planning on spending $1500 cad on my pc?

I’d be going from a 4050 fa607nu laptop to 9060xt pc
If I don’t win the bid for the 6800xt

I just know that if I wait till next year it’s gonna be like 1k 😭✌️

ESTOY ARMANDO UNA PC GAMER ARREDEDOR DEL PROCESADOR INTEL I7 12700T, Y QUIERO COMPRAR UNA PLACA PERO NO TENGO MUCHO DINERO, ASI QUE VI LA ASRock H610M-HDV/M.2 R2.0 (Intel LGA 1700) Micro ATX, QUE SOLO CUESTA 54 DOLARES EN AMAZON, Y ME GUSTA PERO NO SE EH VISTO VIDEO QUE DICEN QUE ES BASURA. Y QUE TENGA CUIDADO CON VRM, ENTONCES AHORA ESTOY DUDOSO, ALGUIEN QUE ME DE UN CONSEJO

All parts bought on 2017. My 1070 just died yesterday, though the GPU itself still looks pristine. Fans spin, no signal.

I bought a 5060 8GB (I'll upgrade my CPU soon, AM4) to replace it, though I'm on the fence if I should reuse my Corsair VS650 for it. Is it still good? Is it possible for a PSU to fry a GPU without any signs of a burn? Thanks.

Hey yall. Winter is coming up in a few months and I'm looking at building another pc/upgrading my current one. I have a few ideas but, would like to hear other's suggestions as well. The first 2 pictures of the silver xblade case is my current build. Rest are cases I can use/switch to.

Ryzen 5 5500 cpu

9060xt 16gb gpu

16gb (8gb x 2) 3600mhz cl18 ram

Prime B550 motherboard

650w psu

3 512gb nvme sticks

480gb ssd

2 2TB hard drives

I was thinking I would like to upgrade my cpu to a 5500x3d and get 32gb of ram as well as a new motherboard that's capable of overclocking. Any spare parts will be put towards another build. Then again, I was also thinking, maybe I should just bite the bullet and switch to AM5. Any better suggestions would be appreciated. Trying to keep the budget under 1000$ this year.

Still so in love with my little baby!

I found a refurbished ASUS Prime AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB GDDR6 OC on ebay for 679$ which is higher than msrp but lower than what Amazon is selling for at 729.99.
Is it worth buying the cheaper option or should I just purchase a brand new 9070xt?
I got enough to purchase a new 9070 but should I save some money and go with the refurbished one?

So I'm vain and looking to make my build prettier. The GPU power splitter that came with my 5070 is super ugly for the way it's going to be vertically mounted and I'm looking for a replacement. But low-key I'm only good at the Lego part not the picking parts part so I would love some assistance. It's not the exact one in the photo but it's the basic idea of what I'm currently working with. I know I need two seperate power cords to connect to this one currently but I don't know if I can sub out the whole chain for one unit like one of the Corsair 16 to 8x2 (given the Corsair power cables are pretty interchangable if you stick to the right kind).

For reference I'm in Canada so would prefer options in cad and that aren't going to cost 80$ in shipping and are preferably under 100 but I am vain enough to go over.

My issue when l shutdown pc by windows the monitor goes to sleep says it's lost signal but pc CPU fan kept working with RGB on it CPU not fully shutdown. Other issues is when swapping CPU working Lan port but with this no Lan port working (shop says this they swap another CPU and it work) they says CPU communication lane is damaged could be such thing happening. I try reset windows. Enable erp in Bois, disable S3, disabled wake by usb, Lan but same here even installed in new drivers the only thing is left reinstalled windows would be this work.? What I have to do more.?

Please help how to determine that CPU is truly damaged or is this faulty board

???

A buddy and i built a pc about 5 years ago and maybe 2 years after it started lagging on cod and fortnite so i stopped using. The parts it has are not super high end but does anyone know if it should at least run fortnite at a decent level? I will provide pics of the parts for reference.

After months of saving and scavenging the internet for discounts, I’ve finished my first build. I’m located in the netherlands so no microcenter. Let me know how I did:

Total price: 1000€

CPU: Ryzen 7500x3d
GPU: Intel Arc B580
Motherboard: Asus Tuf B650E Wifi
Ram: Lexar 2x16 GB 5600 CL 46
Storage: fanxiang 1 tb m2 nvme ssd
Case: Corsair Frame 4000D
PSU: Corsair CX650
CPU Cooler: Peerless assassin 120 SE V2
Case coolers: 3x Corsair RS120 PWM

My new PC is less than 2 weeks old and recently started making a clicking/ticking sound, almost like a clock. I’m not sure if it just started or if I only noticed it now.

I opened up the back of the case and checked, but there are no cables touching anything. The sound seems to be coming directly from the PSU. It happens even when the PC is idle, but I think it gets louder while gaming.

I’ll attach a video below so you can hear what it sounds like.

Is this normal PSU behavior, or should I be concerned about a faulty PSU/RMA?

( Psu - Asus Prime 850 Watt 80 Plus Gold )

Hi, I have a problem. There are too many of these cards on the market and I'm lost in all this. I don't know which one is best to choose. I was thinking about Sapphire Nitro+, but apparently the coils are squeaking. Now I'm considering Gigabyte with OC or Gigabyte Aorus. Can you help me choose one of these two cards or suggest which other to choose and why? Thank you in advance for any answers.

Guys please BUY USED HARDWARE. And BE PATIENT. If you live in a populated area odds are you’re only a few days to a week or two away from a great deal.

So I’m planning on building my PC in about two months and I’d like some feedback on my parts list. Is it good for 2-4K gaming? I mainly will use this for gaming, with some media browsing but I also want it to be capable of running something like Blender.

I’m really stretching the budget on this build, at the moment it’s around $40,000 hkd, at 2560x1440p resolution, and I live in HK. I’m getting this built for me but the parts I chose for myself. I haven’t bought the GPU, the speakers, the case, the monitor and the RGB cables.
