I am a complete noob to gaming PC's in terms of building and/or upgrading so could use some advice fit for someone who knows pretty much nothing about pc components. So I want to upgrade my graphics card for my PC as it is pretty outdated as far as the games recommendations I want to play. I am...

Hello, I've had a pre-built HP Omen 880-p0xx PC for about 2-3 years, and I would like to upgrade. I'm fairly unknowledgeable so I need help if some good soul here would be kind enough to help me. I have a budget of around 15000 Swedish crowns which would be equivalent to around 1500 pounds give...

Hi guys, Just after some general advice. In your opinion, for a Windows 10 pc, what would be the next logical step up from an Nvidia GTX 970 without busting the bank. I've not really got an interest in going above 1080p if that makes a differance. Thanks.

Hi there, so I'm not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to pc components. I bought a pre built cyberpower pc back in 2016 (I think) and the only upgrade i made was my gpu and that is it. Below are my full pc specs. And im wondering what "needs" upgrading and what is perfectly fine for...

I'm looking to start upgrading my system for Zen3 and wondering if it's worth going for a 3600 as an interim CPU until the ZEN3 is release. My 4790k has been running beautifully for 5 years at 4.7ghz but the initial zen3 is getting me all excited. My plan is: B550 Tomahawk 16gb DDR4 3200...

Hi I built a decent computer a few years ago but have no idea if it’s any good now? Just wondering without changing to much what I could upgrade to help it run games possibly better than a ps5 etc? I currently haven’t got a graphics card because I never used it to run games just to render out...

Hi all, I recently upgraded my PC but left the graphics card awaiting some more budget. I'm wondering if NOW is the best time or if I should wait out the next couple of months/weeks. I currently have no clue as to what's out there and what would fit snugly with my current setup and get my PC...

Greetings... Again I made quite a few changes from my original build thanks to your ideas, so feel free to tell me any suggestions for this second version of the build. Note: My local currency is CLP; Chilean Pesos. To transform any number from CLP to USD you just multiply it by (0.00129). I.E...

So i am thinking to myself time for an upgrade soon, i go online and i see new Nvidia cards are comming out pretty soon, So i'm like sweet! But the problem is i don't know much about PC's in general, i'm just a dumbass consumer. I am looking to spend around 600£ i can push it if needed but...

Hi All, I'm hoping a kind soul could give me some advice. I've been doing fine with a rig that's a few years old now. Still does everything I need it to, but I've noticed frame rates drop off since I bought a new monitor (27" 2560 x 1440). As far as that goes, has the time come for a whole...

Hello everyone, I've just purchased a Lenovo Legion 5i with a 10th gen i5 processor and the RTX 2060. The reasoning behind this was that the cpu is good enough for now and cheaper to upgrade in the future than the GPU which is very good (for the price range I can afford) and won't need...

So I recently got a great deal on a prebuilt which I then gutted, changed a few components and then built my own PC using the parts. One of the things that I didn't change was the PSU, but after speaking to some people on the sub they said that a PSU upgrade was needed. So, I currently have a...

I've been happy chuggling along for years with my i3570k cpu, 390 gpu, asus ROG gene v motherboard, few ssds and 8gb ram but recently I've started using Adobe Premier / After Effects which have had pretty insane encoding times for relatively short 8 min clips. It's also starting to struggle in...
