Hi all, I am thinking about buying a RX 5600 XT to replace my current GTX 1060. I stumbled upon this model from Powercolor: https://www.powercolor.com/product?id=1583481410#spe at a very low price (its not the prettiest). I just wanted to know whether or not its worth picking up, since its on...

Hi. built a brand new pc today with a Ryzen 5 3600. Due to budget issues, it is using the Stealth cooler which i know isn’t great. I’ll be looking to upgrade this soon. I did use Arctic MX-4 paste to replace the stock paste, which I thought would help things. I’ve had to lock the frequency at...

I bought a Corsair TX650M PSU about a week ago now, and ever since installing it into my PC I have noticed that when I click the power button, there is a pop noise. Then on shutdown, once the PC has finished shutting down, there is a very audible 'click' Is this/are these normal noises? I have...

Hey chaps, My objective is the ability to game at 4K 144hz maintaining a 100-120 FPS minimum if possible. (Silky smooth frames, but not super high-end budget) The challenge comes with the fact that my rig has been upgraded over and over since 2010, so I imagine I will be replacing the...

Hey All! Yesterday decided to clean my computer a bit, hoover out the dust & clean the fans etc. Upon putting it back together (exactly the way it was) The fans spun at 100% and showed that the CPU was at 91C while idle. Have tried many variations to see if I have accidentally knocked...

I have recently built my first PC, all lights and fans are on, but the monitor only displays: "No HDMI signal detected", but it does detect the computer The CPU (AMD 2600x) is in correctly. The RAM is in as well. I think the graphics card (Radeon RX 580) is in correctly, though there is a white...

This is something of a thinking out loud thread, so don't be surprised if it makes no sense. Current screen is a Dell eIPS 23" 1080p. It's been a good servant. First and foremost, I want to ditch 60Hz and head to 144 (ish) Hz instead. That I think is a must-have. What I'm not so clear about...
