The major issue at this moment is that I am not equip (mentally or otherwise) to take on a build, my head is just not in it but I guess this is the path that will yield better results for him in the long run and I don't want to feel guilty that I didn't do all I could so, there is where I am at...
Can you do me a big favor, can you send me some pics of what you are thinking on buiding it with, will it have Windows as well? I ask because I doubt I will be able to find his windows CD/DVD, also does it have an Optic audio plug? for some reason he wants to have it but won't be a deal breaker...
He probably is but that is OVERKILL to be honest, I mean I doubt he will use 10% of the RTX 3070 for the old games he play but I will take a look at it and PM the seller to see if we can swing something.
I'd appreciate it but I am looking for something a bit more than that but hey, if nothing else comes along, I will be sure to give you a buzz.
I do thank you for helping out.
Boss99, much appreciated, let me see if I can understand what you are willing to offer... Mobo (which brand & Model), RAM (how much and I assume that it goes with the Mobo) + the i7-795 CPU?
Just trying to figure out if I am going to have to use the old case + whatever else I need to use what...
WOW, Let me preface this by stating that I am overwhelmed by the replies and the willingness to help. And Yes, I am almost 60 years old and known this gentleman for well over 20 years, he has always been nice to my kids and I have always tried to help him out with his PC purchases and issues so...
OK, One of my neighbors is around 70ish and he games but nothing serious and mostly old games (Crysis, Spores, SIMs) etc, etc his old PC died recently (capacitors went bye bye) and I was trying to help him out with his HP laptop that I am sure it could handle those game but the problem is that...
Well, meanwhile I just went into safe mode, deleted the hell out of the suite, went back to windows and used Ccleaner to get rid of whatever remnants I had. I may reinstall it soon enough but I get easily annoyed at stuff that is supposed to be free and it is hard to uninstall... for a moment I...
Well, I finally did it but not with some issues ugh!
Bios is the new 215 and it seems stable but now as soon as I get into windows I get 2 errors:
1.- aisuite 3 The service did not respond blah blah atkexCom.axdata and
2.- Dipawaymode The remote procedure call failed.
All the RPC services...
Well, I am back and even more confused than before if one can believe that.
So, I inserted another thumbdrive into a USB port, unplugged the PC from the PSU for a few seconds, plugged it back in and turn the PC on, waited for Bios, hit delete and tried to flash from there but I ran into a small...
Well, I am posting from my other PC because the same thing happened, I ran the windows Bios Update with elevated admin rights, it went into restart, it showed me the splash screen to enter bios, did nothing and immediately told me that it was going to do some updates, I left it untouched, PC...
Honestly?
It took me a while to get back to windows when I almost botched the initial Bios flash with the wrong one and others things so I am hesitant to try this one but like I also said before, I can't walk away from a challenge so I will try that right now and hopefully, all will be well...
Here I go again asking for help even if I don't participate in the forums much. You guys are a wealth of knowledge and I am going to take advantage of your kindness.
A few months back I posted a thread regarding making my Asus G15CE-B9 Desktop PC chassis have a better ventilation and a few...
Please do if it is not too much trouble. Oh and also send me your zip code to see if I can make arrangements for pick up. If it is too expensive I may just end up buying one here locally but it is a good brand and it looks sturdy.
I mean, the specs show that it should fit the GPU I have but...
