Hi, I really want to buy and get the new Pixel 5a, problem is, I live in Europe, and they are only making the Pixel 5a for the US and Japanese market, so I was wondering whether it would be worth it to buy one anyway in the US market, are there any differences? like different settings, maybe different chargers and such? Is it worth it at all, letting it ship from the US through a third-party shipper? Thanks in advance, Jeremy

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I received a PS5 controller for my birthday, to use it with my pc for games like Rocket League. I can use it with wire, but I want to try going wireless if possible. I am not very tech savy with Bluetooth, hence the question: Will my PS5 controller work with a Bluetooth 5.0 dongle instead of 5.1? I can't find a 5.1 dongle online so I am confused whether it is the same thing or not as a 5.0. if there is a difference between 5.0 and 5.1, what are they and are they significant? Thanks in advance, Jeremy

Say, If I upgraded my monitor to play on a higher refresh rate, or on 1440p, would it be better to buy a 1660 (super) or is it still overkill?

Do you konw an Nvidia equivalent? If possible I don't want to turn sail

Yes I do plan to stay on 1080p as I am limited by my current monitor with no plans to change that soon. I'd like to mention that I was able to play doom eternal fine, albeit with some lagspikes around 40-50 fps on medium to low settings, eventhough I feel like it shouldn't have as I was lacking a whole gb in VRAM

Hello guys, I am thinking of upgrading my grapics card, since my current one (GeForce GTX 960 Strix 2gb OC edition) is struggeling because of the low amounts of VRAM in big games (like Doom Eternal). I was thinking of a price range in between 200 to 300 euros, and after a little bit of research, I was debating whether to buy the GTX 1660 Super or not, because I do not want to go overkill. Another thing I was thinking about is to get another 8gb's of RAM, but I was wondering if it makes a difference whether to buy 2 different memory sticks or not. These are my current PC stats: GPU: GeForce GTX 960 Strix 2gb OC edition CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz Memory: 8 GB RAM Resolution:1080p, 60Hz. Storage: SSD for windows and some games. Thanks in advance, Jeremy

I just wanted to say thank you since I think it was some kind of malware that did that because after malwarebytes scan the issue seems to have gone away, I can finally slay demons in peace, thank you very much

I have checked and there was nothing weird going on in the background, just that my gpu was at 99% instead of somewhat lower, I did run windows defender scan, I will try malwarebytes aswell. Why So Slow turned out with this: The highest measured SM BIOS interrupt or other stall was 122 microseconds, which is considered high. I don't know what it means.

Hello all, 2 days ago, my PC suddenly slowed down a fuckton. I used to be able to play Forza Horizon 4 60+ fps, with sometimes dropping to around 50, but suddenly I can't even speed down the highway and get 15 fps. Same with Doom eternal, the first 3 missions were doable, then in the Super Gore Nest mission, which I did the day after, suddenly turned impossible to play. I did a diagnostic check for my CPU with the Intel diagnostic tool and it passed the test. I downloaded MSI afterburner and put the max temperature from the GPU up from 80 degrees celsius to 95 degrees celsius (maximum). It seemed to have worked for some lighter games like CSGO and Rainbow 6 siege, but Forza yielded the same results. I even went back and redid the missions in Doom Eternal that I was able to do fine and had massive lagspikes. The only program that I installed during this window was Fruity Loops 20. These are my PC stats: GPU: GeForce GTX 960 Strix 2gb OC edition CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz Memory: 8 GB RAM Resolution:1080p, 60Hz. Storage: SSD for windows and some games. I hope someone can help me fix this motherfking issue because it is driving me mad. Thanks in advance, Jeremy

I got an CRYORIG H7

Hi everyone, I want to upgrade my old G3258 pentium cpu, that I overclocke, to a new CPU. My motherboards socket is a LGA1150. I was thinking of an I5 4690K or an i7 4790k. Maybe I should upgrade my motherboard in whole? My budget is around 400 euros I have an Z97 PC-MATE ATX LGA1150 Motherboard, with an GTX 960 Strix OC edition 2gb

Hi guys,Recently I have been having serious issues with my audio, mostly stutters and dropoutsI've already tried the following:-Latest BIOS update,-Reinstalled/updated drivers, even rolled back a couple of times,-Disable all enhancements.

I increased it to 40 and the core voltage to 1.25, did a stress test of 15 min with a Max temp of 82. That is too high but do I also decrease it by 0.1v every time?

By how much do I increase the core voltage every time until it becomes stable?
