    Build vs buy help?

    Thanks TheHig! If I do a build I"ll go with your suggestions. Does anyone have a suggestion of a prebuilt that would get me the same performance? I'm not great with building because my eyesight is a concern. So eventhough I'm a build it yourself fan as well, I'm leaning towards a prebuilt that...

    Build vs buy help?

    Hello everyone, I'm currently using a build with a 3060 ti GPU, a R5 5600x, and 32 GB Ram. I have issues with it, the USB ports keep failing and giving an error that USB Over current has been detected then it shuts down. I've done a bunch of Troubleshooting and apparently it's an issue with...

    Asus Tuf FX 505 no pointer/touchpad.

    No touchpad listed in device manager, and no option in bios. I did however find out if I remove the usb bit for the mouse and use a new wireless mouse the pointer appears and works. But, if I disconnect that mouse the pointer also disappears. Still no touch pad or touchpad settings, F10 and...

    Asus Tuf FX 505 no pointer/touchpad.

    Tried that and the battery seems fine, ribbon cable is good. I have not checked BIOS for trackpad options, but will check that in a bit. It's strange because windows settings shows no option for trackpad and the F10 Key does show a trackpad with a line through it so that is the hot key to...

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    Not familiar with fateka, roguecast or parallel miner, getting out some camping gear and heading to microcenter seems less and less crazy. I did pick up a card for 600 an amd 6600 xt. Sorry for the very slow response.

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    Sorry for the slow reply, but I believe that's my next step. I did find a amd 6600 xt for 599. I grabbed it in case.. Seems like a decent upgrade vs my r9 fury.

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    I ran rivera in afterburner and while playing last epoch on 1080p res with lowered detail after about 30 to 45 minutes the temp went to 78C I think my GPU is overheating and that's the root of the problem.

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    That's what I was saying, they are out there, but they are too expensive. Not sure I could do a build within my budget that would actually be an upgrade to what I have.

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    Thanks for the feedback on that! The problem is getting a Graphics card because of all the scalpers. That pc's graphics card the 2060 is listed for over 700 on amazon and used on ebay for around 450. I would rather build my own, but Ram kits, and graphics cards are just insanely priced these...

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    I tried to download and install memtest86 and it is to make a bootable usb drive. Is there an option to have it run from my system vs running it from a usb drive?

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    I don't have a multimeter available to me right now so I tried running cpuid hwMonitor to check for voltages. My +12v stayed between 12.288 and 12.382. Not sure how valid checking with that software is but voltages did fluctuate, but not much. I ran Last Epoch which has been crashing my...

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    any suggested PCs other than what I listed? Thanks for the replies and sorry for being a pest about it, but with all the inflated prices out there I'm just not sure where to even search for a deal.

    Gaming rig upgrade under a budget.

    Thanks for the replies, I will try memtest86+ soon today and test my psu as soon as I can. There's nothing else really wrong with my build except the r9 fury has one hdmi port that is dead. And I'm feeling a little upgrade itch. The pc I listed, is it good for the price? Or do you know of one...
