  1. There is no such thing as "free". Some how, some way, they will try to get your money.
  2. I have been using a Corsair RM1000x for a little over a year now and haven't had any problems whatsoever so I would have to vote for the Corsair IMHO. Take care and good luck.
  3. Did you use DDU to remove the old video card drivers BEFORE installing the new card? Installing the new card drivers on top of the old drivers still in the machine won't do any good at all except possibly screw things up like you describe. Run DDU, remove all the drivers regardless of where they came from, then install the drivers for the new card. Take care and good luck.
  4. Telling us that it is an Asus mobo won't get you very far because there is a mountain of different Asus mobo's. Need more information than that. How about the model for starters? Tbh, would need a complete list of system components for us to get a better picture of the system along with what you planned on doing with it. I mean is it something that you're going to use to program the next Delta V rocket or is it something that you're going to use to play Fortnite? Take care and good luck.
  5. I have used a Radeon 6750 in my machine for a while now and have no regrets at all. It has handled everything I have attempted, (sorry not much though other than World of Warcraft).
  6. The proper sized rivet should do the trick just fine.
  7. To be honest, I am leaning heavily towards the Hyte Y70. https://hyte.com/store/y70?v=307 Take care and good luck.
  8. If everything returned to normal after doing the sfc /scannow thing and you have changed nothing or done nothing to create the bug again then I would say the most likely problem is something that could be messing with the video drivers. Try using DDU (video driver deletion tool) to get rid of everything driver related but after using DDU, make sure that you reboot the machine. If you don't do a reboot after using DDU, then there is the possibility of random nvidia junk files remaining on the machine. Here is a link for the DDU uninstall software. https://www.wagnardsoft.com/display-driver-uninstaller-DDU- Only after the reboot do you go ahead and reinstall the video drivers. Give that a shot and let us know how it goes Take Care and Good Luck.
  9. If everything appears to be working fine the only thing I can suggest right now would be to run the sfc /scannow tool to make sure that everything in windoze is on the up and up. How to run System File Checker (SFC) from within Windows as an Administrator: Windows 11, Windows 10, and Windows 8 or 8.1 From the desktop, press the Windows + X shortcut key combination. In the menu, select Command Prompt (Admin). NOTE: System File Checker can be run from Windows PowerShell (Admin). On the User Account Control (UAC) prompt, click Yes. In the command prompt window, type SFC /scannow and press Enter. System file checker utility checks the integrity of Windows system files and repairs them if required. After the process is complete, reboot the computer. https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000126064/how-do-i-run-the-system-file-checker-in-microsoft-windows
  10. Make sure that in the settings for WoW that it is set up to use DX11 and NOT DX12. I found out the hard way. I don't do Raid but will do some Dungeons on occasion. Oh, I forgot, I currently get 75-80 fps with my system. US Server Domain is Suramar Character is Pharttmaster (age is showing)
  11. I have been using my RX6750XT for quite a while now and have not had a single problem with it at all. As such, I would not hesitate one second to put it on a reference list. You can check my profile information to verify my system. Take care and good luck.
  12. With the cost of the license being what it is, are you sure that you're not dealing with Mickeysoft?
  13. It all depends on which version (10 or 11) that you already have the activation key for.
  14. I purchased an Asus AX3000 PCE-AX58BT as it provides both wifi and bluetooth when I needed bluetooth that my mobo did not provide. It is a wifi 6 adapter and it works great without any problems. As a result I would recommend this little card. https://www.newegg.com/asus-pce-ax58bt-pci-express/p/N82E16833320394
  15. bought a cheap asus rog RTX 3090 TI OC LC Impossible, there is no such thing as a "cheap" asus rog rtx 3090 ti.
