    New Build or buy already built?

    Ok windows automatically updated to Windows 11, pretty seamless as I can tell. Figured out problem with Corsair fans. Found out on a forum, the fans have two connections each, one for the RGC header controller, which I thought did everything. Turns out the one connection does go to the control...

    Ok so you recommend I update to Windows 11. It's very strange to me I have software for my GPU, i guess to tweek or adjust its performance but the core temp is only 33c, so the fans don't run. And I bought these Corsair 120 fans , set of three , I can play with the colors, but they don't run...

    Ok I have window 10 running fine, bought a digital license so it's authentic. Everything is running smooth, funny the GPU cooling fans don't even run, but the temp is 35c. Guess this monster GPU is even challenged yet.

    Thank you all again. The Corsair fans I bought, a set of 3, came with a cheap patch cord. three to one, but I could not find anywhere on the MB to plug it in. After doing some research I saw people on YouTube, install them with a control hub. So I found a Corsair set of three with an included...

    Ok so I had no idea that was a sub-par PSU, it has a 5-year warranty... I guess I could return it to Amazon if you can give me a better choice?? How about Corsair RM750X 750 watts 80+ gold rated, fully modular. I have already purchased all the parts. One other question, I bought two sticks of...

    I don't know I may be missing it but I don't see what PC Partpickers does for me??? It checks compatibility, but I don't see where it suggests anything. Toms's Hardware best builds have PC builds at different price points with suggested parts that are compatible and the best bang for the buck as...

    Ok, I apologize for my ambiguity. My question is, can I take my HDD backup drive from my windows 7 PC and use it in a new Windows 10 PC? Will a new windows 10 PC be able to read and use a backup drive from a windows 7 PC? This is a backup drive with files on it, no operating system. I ask...

    New Build or buy already built?

    Time for a new gaming PC, my current build is 2013, so 10 years old, yeah. I usually build my own, but see some iPason-built PCs on New egg that look like good values, maybe. My main question is, whether I build one or buy one, how do we install windows on PCs these days? My old machine has a...

    SSD question

    Thank you all for your help, I took my computer out and cleaned it all out, not much dust, i clean it pretty regularly. Got my new graphics card, MCI Nvidia GTX950, problem was solved. Old card EVGA GTX 670 was the cause of the glitch. Hoping to have money for a new build end of next year.
