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.

Does anyone know why or have a fix for Asus TUF RTX4080 Screen Sporadically Blinking?
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.

Is my card bad or is this just terrible drivers?
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…

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…

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.

Will 2 year old motherboard cause a bottleneck in performance with the new GPU
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.

Can I return my gpu that has a warranty on it because of an error code on windows?
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…
