  1. Budget (including currency): 500 USD Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Single player sight seeing games (Nier, Witcher, ect) Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Ryzen 1700 + GTX1050ti on an HP 20wm My monitor is begging to die and need to get another one, but i know that my 1050ti cant really do 1440p and i would have to scale it down to 1080p or 720p, neither of which I want to really do because I have heard the 1080 on 1440 looks blurry and 720 is less than what i am running now. I dont feel like spending money to go backwards and have lower quality than i do on console. So my question is, how much does it take to run just normal computing on a 4k monitor and game down to 1080p? Can i get a 4k monitor for normal use and still play games at 1080p60 or does the monitor and processing it down take too much to be able to do it till i can get a better card? (I put it here and not in monitors because I am not looking for a monitor recommendation necessarily, just trying to figure out what i should do)
  2. It was on another post it was something about vertical scan line interlacing
  3. I am looking to get a new monitor but I am stuck with a 1050ti so i know it wont be taking advantage of the new monitors but I have heard that some monitors like Gigabyte have problems at low fps. Is it just a Gigabyte thing or is that common and i need a monitor that has a special feature to be able to use it until getting a new graphics card isnt as difficult?
  4. So my ps3 hard drive is old and getting slow. So I wanted to upgrade the HDD but I do not have a dualshock or sixaxis controller to be able to able to install the updat file onto. (makes you push START and SELECT). is there anyway way to be able to do this with out a ps3 controller. Im using a Dualshock4 and have one of the move controllers with the X and O buttons to be able to navigate menus and stuff. Could i just get a USB to sata adapter and use the backup utility to clone the drive? Will using a game disk or CD with the updat file on it automatically play? will a knock off ps3 controller work? or any other ideas? thank you
  5. so does anyone know what ssd can be used with it (HP pavilion g)
  6. i cant find either of the drives in the bios settings. all the bios has is: model product # system board warranty processor processor speed total memory bios version bios vender serial number UUID number product configuration id system board ct # facorty os primary battery sn wlan fcc id but when i put the old one in it still works
  7. im trying to upgrade my old hp pavilion g series laptop and got a sk hynix 500gb ssd to put in it. I installed it but when I go to install windows on it, it only greets me with a black screen with : "no bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key" i have tried with both the usb and dvd tools from the windows media creation tool. do i have to put the drive into my other computer to format it? or is it just too old of an laptop to be able to handle it?
  8. how do i check that in my bios is: Main: -System time -system date -diagnostic log Security -administrator password -power on password Diagnostics -primaru HD Self test -Memerory test Both of which passed System configuration -language <english> -virtualization tech <disabled> -fan always on <enabled> -action keys mode <enabled> -Boot options -- post hotkey delay (sec) <0> --Cd boot <enabled> --Floppy boot <disabled> --Internal network adapter boot <disabled> --Boot order ---notebook hd ---internal cd ---usb diskette on key/usb hard disk ---usb cd drive and i already tried putting the cd and usb higher in order
  9. I just bought a new SK hynix ssd to try and breath some life into my old laptop but when i try to install windows 10 on it it just says "no bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key" its an HP pavilion g series Ive tried both the usb stick and a dvd to install windows but both met with that. Although i was upset at the drive being shipped in the big yellow envelop i check it in my pc and it was able to recognize it. thanks for the help
  10. @Falcon1986 1. its on mounted on the exterior wall of the house, so i know moving more towards the middle will help with coverage but my main complaint is the speed while im looking right at it down the hall unobstructed. 2. there is a linksys ac1900 that i use as the main router for my ethernet and wifi in the other side of the house. No they are all separated because they wouldnt play well together when on the same ssid, and devices would only connect to the 2.4 band 3. about 500gpbs, yes they are. 4. I have changed the power to high, widened the channels, turned off the wireless uplink 5. I had the ap run the scan and picked the empty channels
  11. and if i wanted to upgrade the ram while im in here how would i do that it has a 4gb and a 1gb? can i just swap out the 1gb for another 4gb cause i think 8gb is the max
  12. I have an old HP G7-1312nr that i want to upgrade can i put in a ssd is a laptop from 2011 able to utilize it? it uses a normal sata connection but the old drive is only 3Gb/s
