I recently upgraded my PC to a 3080TI, an MSI Mag Z590 Tomahawk WiFi motherboard and an Intel i7- 11700KF. Everything went smoothly with the build except I am hitting high temps during both idle and load. I upgraded from a 2060 super with a 9700KF with a Noctua nh-d15. I carried this cooler over to the new build and…
I'm trying to figure out which part of my girlfriend's computer is broken. My girlfriend was playing games on her PC when randomly there was "an exploshion or spark from the computer, then everything shut down". When I went to troubleshoot I found the computer fans, RGB, and GPU fans would turn on when I unplugged the CPU…
So starting about 6 months ago my mouse started randomly disconnecting for a second or two and reconnecting and it was annoying, but I thought nothing of it until it started getting worse and worse until all my USB devices would randomly disconnect and the game I was playing would crash. So I tried a friend's mouse to see…

Hey, I've been waiting on B660 motherboard availability, specifically the ASUS B660-i. It seems like Microcenter has started stocking B660 boards, but the B660-I page remains a stub. Is there any word if Microcenter will stock this item? Newegg got them in stock a couple weeks ago but I'd much rather not give Newegg money…
My specs show that I have an NVIDEA USB Type-C port policy controller. However, the port that's supposed to be a Type-C looks like a USB 2.0 or 3.0. It's still the fastest port on my G434 at up to 170mb/s. Is the Z390 Phantom Gaming 4S/AC a hybrid that replaces the typical Type-C port? Would a typical Type-C yield faster…
