  1. Hello, I recently put together this build and I'm unable to install windows 10. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/fYw2rV When the installer starts, it freezes 3 seconds after the spinning loading icon appears. Im using a usb boot drive. Thanks
  2. To add on, after a bit, my desktop background turns black and any desktop icon I pass my mouse over restores some chunks of the background.
  3. I just got the Optix MAG27CQ 27" 16:9 Curved 144 Hz LCD Gaming Monitor and there appears to be something that looks like noise on black screens where random pixels are flashing. I am using a display port into an RTX 2070 also from MSI and am running at 1440p at 144hz. Thanks!
  4. I have the Arris SURFboard 32 x 8 DOCSIS 3.0 Modem with the NETGEAR XR300 Gaming Router and all that is plugged into the coax. We have a plan for gigabit and are only getting 50mb over wifi and 500 over ethernet. We had someone come down from Comcast and they said they couldn't find the issue and just assumed we didn't have a good modem. Is this possible? Could the modem not be compatible with the router? Thanks!
  5. Do they go on top of the ears or around the ears? They look small in the pictures.
  6. Hey I need help finding wireless gaming headphones that sound really good for just listening to music and gaming. The Man O Wars I have right now sound amazing but the build quality is awful, the headband snapped. My budget is 200$, thanks!
  7. As a followup, I finally contacted them. They're giving me a store credit refund which is fine with me, I'll replace the current card with an MSI one. I do have to send back the old card too.
  8. I'll try, thanks a lot for the help!
  9. I only have a replace button ?
  10. The fans turn on and off under load, like every second its on, then off, then on back and forth. The buzzing happens when the fans ramp up. I'm thinking of getting the replacement and selling it as brand new maybe.
  11. lol the RTX 2070, the only RGB option is static and the Aorus software is incredibly slow. I should but my fans are still bad, I'll see what I can do.
  12. It was brand new so it's weird I cant get a refund.
  13. The fans have spotted working and make a weird buzzing sound. The order page only has a replace button but I'm trying to get a refund so I can buy an MSI card instead. The Gigabyte software is absolutely awful.
  14. I just got a defective Gigabyte card and I'm trying to get a refund but contacting Newegg is almost impossible. Should I use the replace button or is that not a refund? Thanks.
  15. I have 2x4GB sticks running at 1600Mhz and 2x4GB sticks running at 1800Mhz. I was planning on running them together but one of the 1600Mhz sticks died. Can I run 3 sticks with different speeds? Note: Its DDR3. Thanks!
  16. I got it right off of their support page for my card.
  17. I just got the Gigabyte RTX 2070 Windforce 8GB and their RGB software only has a static option when their website shows other options like breathing and spectrum cycling. Also, when the fans go from 0% to max is does a weird loud buzzing sound for a few seconds. Anyone know anything about this? Thanks!
  18. Does windows 10 allow us to upgrade the CPU, Mobo, and RAM without having to do a fresh windows install? I really want to upgrade but I don't want to go through reinstalling windows from scratch or going through old drivers and uninstalling them. Thanks!
  19. Yeah windows automatically re-installed it right away thankfully. Thank you so much for the help.
  20. My laptop has intel graphics for apps and an nvidia card inside for games. How does it know which card to use when? And if I uninstalled intel graphics and reinstalled them will it still work properly with both GPUs? Thanks@
  21. Without a GPU I’d be surprised if I didn’t
  22. I need a laptop with a touchscreen, 1tb SSD, 15inch minimum screen, no GPU, and a strong processor. Ive had awful experiences with HP and Dell’s Alienware in the past so I don’t know if I trust them anymore. Budget: 1200 max Thanks!
  23. Any kind of screen movement would cause flashes and lines to go across the screen. Sometimes the laptop would need a full restart.
  24. We have the money for a ssd thats included with the laptop, and we've only had bad experiences with HP. I'll avoid HP for a long long time.
  25. 1200$ max. 1tb ssd, fast processor (maybe i7), touchscreen, and 15 inch minimum screen. Not for gaming so no gpu.
