G912 - Cyberpunk Flatline
Just got the G912. I cannot get Cyberpunk to play in 4K or 2K for more than 1 minute without flatlining. It’s the base game from Steam. I’ve tried almost everything to make it work, but no luck. No other games have given me a problem so far. Tried several recent GeForce drivers. I know this rig should play the game very…

New PowerSpec G755 + added Samsung 990EVOplus
I just brought home a new G755 and, wanting a little more disk space, purchased a 2TB 990 EVOplus for it. The G755 is up and running just fine. I installed the new SSD drive. However, hoping not to have to remove the graphics card, installed it in the 3rd NVM slot instead of the second. Now the BIOS sees it just fine in…

How do I change the lights on the Powerspec G525??
Hi, I'm fairly new to this. I just got it recently and I am having trouble figuring out how exactly to change or turn off the RGB lights.😥 I've been trying to search in forums and videos and even on the Powerspec dashboard but all leading me to dead ends (or actually leading me nowhere to begin with). If there's any more…

G448 Crashing in Fornite again
Previous fix was to update to the latest bios. No issues with that. No we are crashing again. Nvidia is on latest bios. Just changed the video settings to render in DX11 mode to see if that will fix it. I wouldn't ask for the new bios if I knew where to find it. I don't. I didn't see a place where to get files. Either way,…

Need help with drivers for Powerspec B943
I am having issues with Bluetooth on this unit, it keeps disconnecting out of the blue. Is there somewhere I can find drivers that are updated? I've tried googling but it takes me to the MicroCenter support page, that should have a link to a driver search tool - the tool has been removed from that page.

G478 Bios update
Hello, I have a PowerSpec G478 and recently tried playing the new Dune game; however, I am encountering an error, and the consensus for the fix seems to be updating the BIOS because of the degradation issues with the Intel 14th-gen chips. I think that PowerSpec has its own BIOS for this MSI motherboard, and I was wondering…

New Owner Questions
I recently purchased a Powerspec B737 to replace a 2011 Dell PC. After about a month of usage, I had some general questions: Noticed that while browsing or using MS Office (otherwise minimal multi-tasking), the fans ramp up and down quickly (probably no more than 5s at the most) every now and then. The ramp ups don't seem…

G522 ambient room temp limits
Hi, I have been very happy with my G522 purchased a few months ago. Most of my use is web surf, Microsoft office, scanning to pdf etc, all I would imagine put minimal stress (heat buildup) on the CPU. I am not a gamer. Given the above info, what ambient room temp limit would you recommend? Is 78 Fahrenheit too high? Thanks…

Powerspec g722 cannot turn off lights
I have literally tried everything. MSI center and mystic light, scanning and M button holds and cycles, I even downloaded Open RGB and it wouldn’t detect anything. How on earth can I turn these things off. Even checked the BIOS to see if there were any settings and that just had an LED control toggle. I’ve tried praying to…

PowerSpec B945
While in Fairfax, Virginia I went to Micro Center and bought this system. So far impressed but haven't installed the video card yet. The main intent for this system is image processing of CMOS/CCD data acquired from telescope systems at home and remote. Next step is installing the video card, an AMD Radeon RX7600. I have a…

Powerspec G434 Power Supply
Is there a way to determine the wattage on my power supply without having to take the unit apart? It is working fine and has never been replaced. I am looking at purchasing a new UPS that will power it, and a few other peripherals, including the Samsung 65in monitor, an Amazon Firestick, an external DVD drive, and external…

The RGB Case Fan (Powerspec G434) with Lian Li label on the back of the PC is going out.
The back case fan is going out. It is randomly slowing down, making noise as it slows down. I tried finding a replacement fan on Amazon and struck out 2 times. It appears the case fans use all 4 pins for both power and the RGB function. The only ones I found online that specifically said they were PWM RGB LED 12V and FAN…

PowerSpec G721 Prebuilt Repeatedly Crashing
Bought a new PowerSpec G721 a couple months ago, and within the first week of owning it my computer started crashing at random intervals. I took it into my local MicroCenter branch in Cambridge, only to be told it wasn't a hardware issue and that it was software related. The only advice given to me was to factory reset.…

PowerSpec B945 Desktop Computer - Adding 3.5" drives
I have found the two bays for the 3.5" HDD as well as the 2.5" SSD but the cabling is all bunched up and in bundled via a tie strap next to the PS. I'm a bit leery to just pull on the cables and thought maybe it would be best to disconnect the PS from the chaises and get the cables needed for the drives. I'll also need to…

Are G522 top USB ports fully powered (equivilent to back ports)?
Hi, Just wondering if the age old common advice to use only rear USB ports to connect USB powered accessories, ie external optical drives, is still relevant, in particular to my PC, the G522. For such "occasional use" devices (as an external optical drive), it would really be inconvenient to use a rear USB port on the…

Where's the legacy specs for Power Specs on Powerspec.com
Am I missing something? Where is the legacy spec page on Powerspec.com? I even asked store associates and no one knows. One of the best parts about buying a prebuild Power Spec is you had access to the specs LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG after every other OEM made it impossible to find. I have a 4-year-old PC that I can't find…

Drive 0 assignment on my G522
Sorry in advance for the lengthy message ;-) I use an esata connection to run my external HDD back up drive.

If the external HDD is turned on prior to booting the…

Add an SSD to B737?
Just bought a B737 and want to add a 2.5" SSD. The specs say the computer has two 2.5" bays. I just opened it up see nothing. There is a little box-like thing up top, which the salesman said is where the bays are. But looking at it from the other side it's FULL of wires. What are my options? Thanks

New PC now crashing multiple times per day
I have a recently-purchased very-high-end PowerSpec (late 2024) which starting yesterday is now crashing multiple times per day. It's an instant shut-off and then restart, no BSOD. It is plugged directly into the wall (no surge suppressor or continuous power supply), and I have not introduced any new software or processing…

Where to find official bios updates?
I just bought a G719. I realize it has an asrock board in it so could grab latest firmware from them, but was wondering if there are official versions for the computer published somewhere? I couldn't find them on microcenter site for some reason. Thanks, Eric
