I recently got a valorant key so i downloaded it. It said I needed to update my GPU drivers otherwise the anti-cheat wouldn't let me through. So I updated my GPU drivers to the latest version. Since then, whenever I start a game, particularly when the display mode changes, a lot of weird artifacting occurs. I thought at first that is was a hardware issue, but the weird part is that when I was in the game, which is the most intensive part for the GPU, the artifacts dissapeared. I tried downgrading and ddu-ing my graphics driver, but this hasnt helped so far. There are also no overclocks on the card. Any help would be appreciated.

I am getting 20-25 fps in almost every game, except for really light titles(like CS:GO) where I get around 70fps. My utilization is at 95%, so thats not it. The weird thing is that after I reinstall the driver, everything works fine. However, if I restart my computer after the reinstall, the problem occurs again. I have tried DDU'ing the driver without my ethernet cable plugged in, to prevent WIndows from doing some weird automatic driver install stuff, but this also didn't help. I am completely out of options and would appreciate any help.

The second hand one is indeed a reference card so in that case I will definitely go for the red team this time, thanks for the advice!

In my country I can get a GTX 970 for the same price as a RX 570 4GB, which one should I buy? I'm of course aware of the benefits of buying first hand but the gtx 970 is a bit better so I'm not sure.

My computer keeps crashing randomly, like when I'm gaming or just watching YouTube. I have tested the PSU and the GPU and they both seem to work fine. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Specs: I7-4770K Asus Z87 motherboard 16G Ballistix DDR3 GTX 760 MSI RM 850 PSU

I want to make a power bank that stops charging when the phone is full. Is there a simple circuit that can detect the charge of a phone?

If I have say for example a ryzen 1500X and a gtx 1070, will I still be able to edit videos well?

Does anyone know a website to like submit a Spotify play list or something and that it downloads that for you?

Does anyone know a good RSS feed for tech news, I can't seem to find a good one?

I'm putting a ssd into a laptop but the laptop has two drive bays, this means that I can just add the ssd. Is it possible to only copy the Windows partition so only Windows is on the ssd and the documents and stuff on the existing hard drive?

I need to solder some things for a project with a raspberry pi, but want to practice first. Does anyone know a good little practice project which involves soldering and is not too expensive?

can you run gamemaker on an external harddrive without too much lag?

Two questions: 1. What is the best and most easy to use NAS that you know? 2. Do I really need two hard drives in it to back it up?

I'm DIY'ing a NAS with a raspberry pi and some WD reds. I want to put it in a wooden case which I've made myself. Does this case need a fan to cool the HDD's, or can I just leave it closed?

I need a good charging unit which you can just place somewhere and supports a lot of phones/tablets.
