do you know what displayport version the adapter is? it needs to be at least 1.3 i think Edit: ignore this, it should be able to drive the display no matter what version, im stupid. have you tried a different cable etc?

this is an awful idea, the laptop probably wont work without the gpu installed, but if you really wanted to do it youd need a hot air soldering station

the router may also have ddns, my asus does, but i dont know how widespread of a feature that is

what other devices do you have that could be interacting with it?

if youre not planning on gaming on it, and have the money, i see no reason not to get the 1440p panel, especially if youre looking to upgrade your graphics card in the future, at which time you could make it your primary display, displaying the desktop takes next to no graphics resources, so only having a 1050ti shouldnt be a problem. that said it is a bit counterintuitive to not use your highest quality display as your primary display kdshkld

have you run it with just the cpu and a single stick of ram? id suggest running that and working your way back to fully built to find out what's causing the issue

im not 100% sure, but i think x360ce might be able to do what you want

have you tried doing it with third-party software?

this, although when i upgraded CPU etc i just clicked "my hardware has changed" or whatever it was and it activated just fine

true, but it might end up being easier to reformat, and then you can create the partitions however you want

ahh fair, tbh id copy your data off the ssd and do a clean reformat and install

i dont know tbh, but why not run a linux virtual machine?

id try turning off the overclock, just to see if its that

correlation is not causation. i highly doubt it has anything at all to do with the SSD. try re-seating the graphics card and making sure all the power cables are plugged in properly, you could have knocked something loose while installing the SSD

if you dont have something in the 16x pci-e slot then itll work fine. dont know about how it'll run games, but its not a very powerful card, so i would expect you to have to run games on pretty low settings
