  1. How much experience do you have with HTML and CSS? Your site is responsive and looks fine on an iPhone 11 Pro Max. Just like most templates/CSS frameworks, you probably have a responsive flexbox grid system made up of rows and columns and thats how your stats are automatically turned from a row of three elements into ones that are stacked on each other on mobile devices. I am not sure why you would want to have them displayed in such way on a mobile device as you would need to make them much smaller to fit in a single row. You can read up on responsive design (and other web design topics) here: https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_responsive.asp Also, I think this thread would be more suitable for the Programming subforum.
  2. So you want to hook up your PC to the receiver so that you get sound from your PC on it? Get a 3.5mm to RCA cable and then just have it go from your PC to the receiver's input (try the CD player input).
  3. I would recommend getting an RTX 2070 if your budget is $400. For just over $400 (~$440) you can get an RTX 2070.
  4. You should have no problems as long as your PSU can handle it.
  5. Using compressed air directly on your heatsink will be fine. Holding blades in place is recommend to prevent any accidental damage to the motor.
  6. Get the GPU first as this will likely you give the most noticeable uplift in performance. Upgrading your CPU will be the more expensive upgrade so I would recommend doing that later as you will need the CPU, a motherboard and RAM.
  7. He did say he wanted to make it upgradeable. I wouldn't cheap out on the motherboard just in case he wants to upgrade to an 8 core Ryzen 3700x, for example, and slightly overclock it. The more powerful PSU will also allow him to stick pretty much any GPU and any Ryzen CPU in it without having to worry about power. 16GB of DDR4 will also keep him running for a very long time whereas 8GB can be maxed out these days.
  8. No worries. Just a little note in terms of upgrades: get a GPU first once you're ready. The APU will run just fine with a GPU in the build. You could also save a little bit by going for 8GB of DDR4 but this 16GB kit is a very good deal in my opinion and it also runs at a nice speed of 3200MHZ which any Ryzen CPU/APU will be happy to utilise.
  9. Here is my suggestion: PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price CPU AMD Ryzen 3 2200G 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor $79.89 @ OutletPC Motherboard Gigabyte B450 AORUS M Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard $68.99 @ Newegg Memory G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory $64.99 @ Newegg Storage Kingston A400 240 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive $29.99 @ Amazon Storage Western Digital Caviar Blue 1 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive $42.89 @ OutletPC Case Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L MicroATX Mini Tower Case $44.99 @ Walmart Power Supply Corsair CXM 650 W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply $78.89 @ OutletPC Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts Total (before mail-in rebates) $435.63 Mail-in rebates -$25.00 Total $410.63 Generated by PCPartPicker 2019-07-26 09:02 EDT-0400 Use the APU for now but in the future you can replace it with a regular Ryzen CPU and thrown in a GPU. The case I have chosen is, in my opinion, one of the best budget cases which also looks great. You obviously should go for a case you prefer if you don't like it.
  10. Dont worry about it, your drive will work just fine but simply without the advantages of NVMe.
  11. 1. Was it worth getting and did i get good value I think it is definitely good value. Parts are getting old but they can still peform well enough. 2. Should i have opted for Newer less powerful hardware I don't think you would be able to build anything for £250. 3. Should i upgrade any parts Consider upgrading your GPU first and then at some point upgrade the CPU/MOBO. One thing I did notice is that you have your SSD listed as an NVMe SSD which your motherboard doesn't support. Once you upgrade your CPU/MOBO, you will be able to utilise the advantages of NVMe.
  12. Someone else doing the list for you is not going to lower the prices of the parts. The CPU, GPU and RAM of your choice are already £900+ Not to mention, you need a decent X470 board to handle the Ryzen 9 3900x so you're looking at around £150-£190. You pick a good motherboard which can handle the 3900x and you end up with £150 left. Are there any components you can reuse? Furthermore, what are you going to use this PC for?
  13. You could try running memtest and if your system does crash then it's the RAM. If you have mutliple RAM sticks, leave just one in and see if it's stable. Swap them around too to see if it helps.
  14. You need to update your BIOS in order for the 3000 series to work. Get your 2600 back in it and update your BIOS before swapping it out. My bad, I see you did mention you have updated it. The only reason for it to not work now would be a CPU related fault i.e. bent pins or maybe DOA.
  15. Unlikely it will be bottlenecked by an overclocked i7 4790k. Perhaps some rare CPU-heavy games might see a slight drop in FPS but I doubt it will be noticeable.
  16. Could it be something to do with caching? Surely the ISP would block all traffic.
  17. Follow the steps on the support page. Ensure your PC doesn't have any malicious software; scan it with an antivirus. Make sure you change your password for your email account too. Once you are sure that noone else but you has access to your PC and email account, contact Valve and begin the account recovery process.
  18. Your only solution is to email Valve. It will likely take some time but once they confirm that you have indeed been compromised and your account has been altered, they will likely revert the changes and return your items. Here is their support page on stolen accounts: https://help.steampowered.com/en/wizard/HelpWithAccountStolen
  19. The maximum resolution supported by VGA is 2048x1536 so the motherboard tried to fill your 4K TV but it simply can't because of the VGA limitations. A motherboard with HDMI would work just fine. I doubt it can handle the Ryzen 9 3900x from the looks of the VRMs. If you want a list of motherboard that are ready for the 3900x as well as Ryzen 3000 series in general, I recommend you check out this video from Buildzoid:
  20. Random BSODs with no pattern to them would make me start with RAM and see whether the sticks are fine. Although, your obersations could suggest an issue with your SSD too. I would try the following: 1. Plug the SSD into a different SATA port on your motherboard 2. Replace the SATA cable for your SSD 3. Try using a different SSD and even an HDD If you get to step 3 and your PC is still unstable, move onto the RAM and try swapping sticks out.
  21. Considering Intel's history of unethical agreements with the likes of Dell, HP and others just to put AMD at a disadvantage, I think it is clear that they have been paid to change the formula so that it favors Intel.
  22. I mean the site was already a very rough way of estimating performance, although quiet convenient so a lot of new users would look at UserBenchmark. I mean just look at this: https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i3-8350K-vs-AMD-Ryzen-TR-2990WX/3935vsm560423 Or this: https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i7-4770K-vs-Intel-Core-i5-4670K/1537vs153 Even this! https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i3-9350KF-vs-Intel-Core-i9-9980XE/m775825vsm652504 Either the people behind UserBenchmark have lost all of their brain cells OR there was a sizeable cheque sent their way. Anyway, I usually go to GamersNexus for benchmarks but an upcoming PC enthusiast might look at UserBenchmark as a reliable source of information on part performance.
  23. You need to set the refresh rate to 144hz via Advanced Display Settings in Windows. Here is a guide: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-change-monitor-refresh-rate-windows-10
  24. Where are you setting the refresh rate?
  25. From my experience, dead RAM sticks will either completely stop your system from booting or your PC will randomly freeze and then crash instead of just powering off. I assume your temperatures are stable? I suspect the PSU to be the source of your problems. Do you have a spare one to test or maybe you could borrow one from a friend?
