If you’re reading this post, you’re probably here for one reason: you want to build a new PC. Whether it’s your first time building or you’re an experienced builder and just need some extra clarification, this post is for you. With all the options available on the market, it can be overwhelming, but we’re here to help…
I've finally saved up enough money to buy parts to build a pc. I've bought everything I need for my build except the graphics card. I've done enough research to find that the card listed online at the MicroCenter in Fairfax County would be the smartest choice to make. However, I've seen that the card I'm looking at has…
How do I get this coupon?
I grabbed a Asus TUF 4080 a couple weeks ago and since I've installed it, my displays seem to sporadically blink to black for less than a second then goes back to normal. It seems to primarily happen when I'm playing games (but maybe it happens when I'm not as well and I've just not noticed yet, since I don't tend to stare…
Will I be able to install a GeForce GTX 680 in the PowerSpec B249 ? Thank you.
Asus ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING WI-FI5600X cpuCORSAIR 850W GOLD PSU MSI 3070ti Ventus 3x GeForce RTX Works fine with the current 3060 GPU Hook up 3070ti, with two 8-pin PCIe power cables. No video. White Vga light LED on motherboard is lit up, which from what I've read, it means the mobo isn't happy with it. This is the…
Got a Radeon 6900XT a few months ago. All was good until a few weeks ago when suddenly all games (even an old one on GoG from the 80's) basically causes the card to crash. I usually can just end the task and its fine. I have latest AMD drivers - Windows 10 64bit and its up to date. Mobo is older - ASUS ROG X470-F. I…
I recently bought a new video card that has the promotion for the Warhammer: Darktide. I bought it a few days before the game released, but the promotion was listed on the site at that time; I haven't gotten the promotion code or information about how to download the game yet. Can someone from Micro Center contact me…
When Nvidia released the 4000 series cards, both times Microcenter advertised ahead of time when they were going to be open and to say they had them in stock. Where is the information for the AMD release?
I just recently purchased a Nvdia 2080TI and corsair 750W PSU for said GPU when I installed it I quickly found the issues of screen tearing, screen lines, terrible resolution, and my screen not even filling my monitor. I have tried everything… from installing new drivers, resetting and replugging card and psu to removing…
okay, my research (tech mags/YouTube reviews/MC staff) all convinced me 12th gen i-7's are generational!! So my current shopping list begins with "12700 mandatory" (along with other 'minimum requirements). Recently learn 12700 includes Igpu (vs 12700F which will have Dgpu) subsequently by-passing the Igpu completely! So if…
I am ready to pull the trigger on a custom build and let the team build me a PC, but weeks have gone by and most items still are out of stock online and in stores. Is there a way to know when the parts come back in stock, or is there an estimate for when things will be available again? Really looking to have the Asus TUF…
My comment was already deleted once so I am creating new POST. -Removed by staff-
Recently I bought a Gigabyte 3080ti OC from another vendor. However, after playing for only 20-30 minutes it crashes out of the game or crashes the computer. It is not getting to hot since I was monitoring its temperature. And I recently got a new 850 watt PSU. Is there something wrong with my card or could it be something…
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I don't want my money back if that is the answer, but I would be willing to pay the deference between the graphics cards for a newer card.
It's no secret that NVIDIA's RTX 4090 is a powerful card. So powerful in fact, power delivery and cooling has become a real challenge with this generation. To overcome this, the new 12VHPWR connector is used to allow up to 600W of power delivery in addition to designing new cooling solutions to handle the 450W of heat…
Sup y’all! The 4090 lines have begun. Some have started lining up last night. This photo was taken about 12pm PST at the Tustin, CA location and the line is about 15 people deep at the moment. From what I heard, they will have a first come first service voucher system and have roughly about 300+ cards atm. Not sure what…
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has spotted a line forming for the 4090 yet? Also, it's confirmed that the 4090 will be in store physically at launch at microcenter. Anyone knows of any other stores that will have them in physically? I know that the chances of getting a pre-order on the internet are slim and that the bots…
I just bought my RTX 3090 TI yesterday and i haven't been able to set up more than 2 screens. I tried to reinstall the drivers for the video card, bought new DisplayPort cables and nothing. As of now i only got 1 HDMi and 1 Displayport working, if i try to connect another one it won't work. I checked also on NVIDIA Control…
I have an older computer that runs just fine for the things I do except the graphics card does not meant Adobe's recommendations for Lightroom and Photoshop. Adobe suggest 8GB of dedicated GPU RAM or 16GM of shared memory, a benchmark of greater than 2,000, and Direct X 12 support. The current card is an EVGA GeForce GTX…
My CyberPowerPC is close to 3 years old now. It's the original configuration with an X570 Phantom Gaming 4-CB motherboard, a Ryzen 9 CPU, and the EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Super GPU. I had two monitors connected in the first year; one hdmi and one Displayport, working fine. I've only used one monitor since then, using only the…
I don't usually use much graphic programs other than making YouTube videos. There is a software I want to purchase and trying to find out if it is compatible with either my laptop or my sister's. We both have an HP laptop. The minimum requirements for it is Intel HD Graphics 5000. (The recommended is NVDIA GTX 760) My…
I am building a new computer and have successfully started it and installed Windows 11. I installed a PowerColor Hellhound (AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT) GPU on a MSI Pro B660-A DDR4 MB and attempted to install the drivers. I get an error: The version of AMD Software: Adrenaline Edition you have launched is not compatible with…
Looks like my son's 2 year old RTX 2070 Super Windforce 8GB 3X OC is going bad and will need to be sent in for warranty evaluation. Unfortunately, it leaves him without his gaming pc for several weeks or longer. He has decided that it would be easier to buy a new GPU for the time being and sell the old GPU when it comes…
Hello! I'm building a new PC (for context, i'm living in portugal so shipping from amazon is very limited, so i'm resorting to local tech companies) and as I was about to settle for a ROG Strix 3060 TI V2 OC, I saw a gigabyte 3070 eagle OC for 60 bucks cheaper. Is the that specific 3070 better than the Strix and worth…
Am I missing something here? It looks like the 2060 Super is less expensive than the 1070 8GB when you look at online retailers. Is the 1070 superior? Why is it more expensive?
I’ve had my gpu for around 5 months. Every week or so I would get this error code 43 for my gpu and I would have to uninstall the graphics driver using ddu and installing the drivers again even though most of the time I don’t even need to because there isn’t a new driver update. It’s super annoying and it happens to me a…
