I'm planning a new build but I want to keep my existing M.2 SSD with Windows 11 installed. My copy of Windows is currently attached to my motherboard as it's been so since it was built so when I put my M.2 SSD into a new build will Windows prompt me to buy a new product key? I'm tossing up whether to do it this way or just buy a new M.2 SSD and a new copy of Windows for a clean install.

Thank you so much! You're right! I switched over to a DisplayPort cable and now it is displaying 10-bit on both the NVIDIA Control Panel and Windows settings. Can I just ask how on Earth did you find this information? I have been using HDMI for years now with this card and never knew that.

I don't think I have HDR / WCG enabled. When I select HDR in Windows settings the screen goes all washed out, even though I have a Vesa Certified DisplayHDR 600 sticker on my monitor.

Connecting via HDMI running off a GeForce 1660 ti.

I have the Philips monitor 328P6VU which Philips states is a 10-bit monitor however under settings in Windows 11 it says the bit depth is 8-bit. Also under NVIDIA Control Panel I can only select the Output colour depth as 8 bpc. I've already installed the driver from Philips' website but still no luck. Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you (both) so much for clearing that up for me.

I'm thinking of upgrading from 64GB to 128GB Memory. I checked the manual of my Motherboard (Gigabyte B550 AORUS ELITE AX), and this is what is says under memory: - 4 x DDR4 DIMM sockets supporting up to 128 GB (32 GB single DIMM capacity) of system memory. - Support for DDR4 3200/2933/2667/2400/2133 MHz memory modules. Then I ran CPU-Z and my current Corsair memory is running at a frequency of 1066MHz. (4x16GB modules). The manual doesn't say anything about supporting 1066MHz which it's currently doing, so would I notice a difference upgrading to 128GB 3200MHz? I use my PC for 4K video editing in DaVinci Resolve and occasional gaming.

Thanks for your reply. Arh, that's frustrating. I do have more USB3.0 ports on the rear IO but I wouldn't mind having a go if it's not too complicated. It's a Thermaltake Versa N25 case. I'll have a look online and see if I can find a tutorial.

I had a custom PC built for me but they only gave me one USB3.0 port. How do I make the right one work?

Yes you're right, Speccy is shit. I've gone back to CPU-Z and it's displaying the correct info. Thanks. I'm also going to check out GPU-Z, haven't heard of this but looks good from what I've read.

I recently switched from CPU-Z to Speccy to show my system specs but I noticed under Graphics it says my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti has 2047MB of memory which is incorrect because this card has 6GB of memory. Does anybody know what's going on here? Also, is Speccy the best app to use to display system specs or would you recommend me something else?

Ah ha! Right you are. I opened up Optimize Drive and waited 3 minutes and it continued defragmenting. It's all done now. Thanks heaps.

If I don't touch my mouse or keyboard for about 3 minutes my hard drive starts doing something. By something I mean it sounds like files are being transferred to and from the hard drive. It's really difficult to catch what it's doing because as soon as I move the mouse or type something, the noise stops, and I have to wait 3 minutes for it to start up again. I opened Task Manager and waited but it shows nothing when the noise is going. My specs are; I am running Windows 10 Pro on an M.2 SSD, and I have two internal mechanical hard drives connected via sata that I use for storage, it's one of these hard drive that is making the noise as though it's currently being used for something. A 2TB and a 6TB.

I seem to have found a solution. There's an app called PDP Control Hub that allows remapping of the trigger buttons but it requires me to purchase a PDP controller. I'll give it another go with the regular controller and try and get used to it over the next day otherwise I'll get a PDP controller. On a plus side they are cheaper than the regular Xbox ones.

Yeh this game only gives 2 options, none of which suit me.
