G711 Strange Issue
So I've had the PowerSpec G711 for about 2 months now, running mostly fine until it doesn't. This has happened twice so far, but whenever I'm playing any title it seems like the entire PC and sound will stutter to say 10 FPS and look like a very quick slideshow for about three seconds. Then it returns to normal. I'm not…

PowerSpec G517 Prebuilt Gaming PC Randomly Restarting
I recently purchased a PowerSpec G517, and it's been restarting every few hours. It happens when I'm gaming, and when I'm not. Like I said, completely random. I was wondering if anybody else has had this issue before, and what could be done to fix it. And to my knowledge, it's just windows restarting as the PC itself…

I've been messing with different RGB software and have come to the conclusion I preferred the default RGB color patterns that came with the machine. I can't seem to replicate them with the apps I'm using. Is there a way to restore whatever the defaults were?

Question re: Lian Li ATX205 for PowerSpec G436 build
I purchased the G436 back in January 2021 and with a few modifications it's been a very good system for me. I would normally build my PC but as you may remember back during the height of Covid there were literally zero decent GPU's to be had on the open market and buying a pre-built was the only way to get ahold of the…

PowerSpec Warranty Question

G232 not turning on
My powerspec G232 has sat for about a month, and when I tried to turn it on the power led will just blink and the desktop won't fully boot. I held down the power button to force a restart and re-seated the RAM, which were two things I found online to try, but neither worked. What else can I try?

Has anyone had any luck installing a Linux distribution (such as Fedora, Linux Mint, Arch, etc.) onto a PowerSpec pre-built? Specifically either the PowerSpec B750 or B751. I am especially concerned about any driver issues, and whether you can turn off the RGB using something like OpenRGB.
