    RTX 2070 without DisplayPort?

    EDIT: Solved it after looking at the picture more closely. Needed to take out this plastic with a plier which was stuck into the DisplayPort. *** Hi guys, A few years back I bought myself a prebuilt PC with a RTX 2070. So far I have only used the HDMI entry. However, due to buying a new...

    Thanks, you are right, I will go for the Gigabyte motherboard. About the OS: I read a few articles after you mentioned this and if I undertood correctly this just stops Microsoft from releasing new features to Windows 7? I read so many negatove things about Windows 8 that I'm not sure if it's...

    Thanks guys, I decided to go with this case https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/nzxt-phantom-630-midi-tower-usb-30-black-big-tower-pc-gehaeuse-400591. Is a different CPU fan than the one that comes with the CPU useful?

    Thanks Dangman for the long reply! A question though: For the CPU, I read that the major difference between i5 and i7 is Hyper-Threading. The i7 has basically 8 cores (as I understood it) while the i5 only 4. I want this PC to be future proof, is the i7 in this case the better way to go?

If RAM B is in slot 1 and RAM A...

    I urgently need help with my PC

    I FOUND THE ERROR! I'm so happy right now:D I took out 1 ram (out of the two 4 GB RAMS I have) and the PC started up! The strange thing is that BOTH work this way, my theory was that either one of them is broken. When I put both back into their original position, I get the same error and can't...

    I urgently need help with my PC

    Sorry im not so experienced with PCs, it is my first self-built one. I cleared the RTC RAM CMOS like is says in the manual, but I haven't removed the battery.
