i would replace that western digital hard disk if i could about ram, yes, you must, or docp or xmp profile, otherwise it runs at slowest speed, 2133mhz, set it and check it is applied, also that you installed ram in the rigth slots

some tablets do let you install custom firmwares with different a droid versions but i dont know of any tablet that can get raspbian via microsd, what tablet do you have?

if you decide to go with the xt, you will not get gsync, so disabled it would have to stay i wouldnt buy a xt rigth now, i would wait to get a xt from sapphire anyway, no a blower fan model

also, what psu are you using? i had problems with a cheap psu years ago similar to thse, the psu was bad and the power connectors were really bad did you set xmp profile on the ram modules?

buildzoid chooses ram, overclocks like the professional overclocker he is and i dont know if that overclock is stable for long periods of time, you could ask him, he migth answer you the same i did, perhaps he gives you a better answer

he is a kid, what do you expect?

if your ram runs at 2666, is not likely to be capable of reach 3600, perhaps 3200 at best slow ram is sold as slow because it couldnt reach higher speeds and be stable, still, try wont harm, at worst you will need to reset bios to go back to xmp 2667 motherbpard is the one who forces speed on ram, you dont overclock motherboard there about raising voltages, the less voltage the better ram runs at 1.2v, if you only need to go up to 1.3, that is better, each ram module is different, try to increase as low as possible same logic applies for cpu, but each cpu uses different voltage, so check the base voltage of your cpu and increase in the slowest ammounts possible remember that overclocking voids warranty and is the quickest way to kill or reduce life expentancy of pc parts the speed on ram mostly remains high, cpu can go up or down but most cases remains high even when idle, but motherbpard migjt apply some control so cpu might go down and save energy and not generating heat remember to have good airflow and a good cpu cooler, so parts work under load at lower speeds, to make them last longer and avoid noise from the cpu fan under load

then is the monitor, some come with 3 year warranty, if not covered by warranty, if you like it, you could send it for repairs, i wouldnt, it is expensive to repair when is not covered by warranty, is your decision

you should not increase ram voltage on ddr4 over 1.5v and expect it to last 3 or more years ddr3 around 1.6v why, because voltage will kill those parts, it will not kill cpu, it doesnt use same voltage, but might kill motherboard too

it depends on your budget, a rx580 is the cheapest and strong enough i would consider, start from there gtx or rtx are options too, but depends on your budget about ryzen, a r5 3600 would be a considerable improvement, the problem is motherboard, x470 seems to give less problems, i heardabout some b450 giving problems, of course you can go for x570, depends on your budget

you can reuse the box of the new one, to protect pins, you could also visit a store and ask them if they could sell you a empty box i bougth a oem cpu last week, they gave it to me on a box, still got a couple of bent pins, fortunatelly is easy to bend them back when you need to bend few of them so transport them is kinda hard to be honest, i dont recoment any form of foam, best bet is the original case it came or one from the new one

on that part the sleeve will not cover really, it will let you see all ketchup, also the mustard you will still need the black ductape on the end of the cable this psu is like mine, it goes all the way sleeved but the manufacturer left the last 2 inches out of the sleeve, most brands are like that, well, at least the ones that are not too expensive

i used black ductape to cover that part you can do the same, or buy a 24pin cable extension that or change psu to a modular one with prettier cables

you have a z170, best cpu you can put there is a 7700k, that is just 4 cores the 1050 is a limiting factor too the first thing i would change is that 1050 that is a weak gpu for the game ypu want to play at higher framerates after changing gpu you can consider if it wasnt enough, the change of cpu to that i7 i mentioned, i personally dont consoder it a good idea, for the cost of the part i think that a newer i5 or a ryzen cpu is a better option, you will need an new motherboard and cpu, possibly ram too

no screwdriver remove battery, then use a jumper to do the procedure, turn pc on, leave it on for 10 seconds with the jumper turn pc off, remove jumper, put battery back if it doesnt turn on as normal, remove cpu, check for bent pins on cpu or socket if it is intel

no, read replies

but, did you reset it by using the jumper to reset cmos or has your motherboard a reset button for that? did you removed the battery before resetting? what cpu do you have? did you reseated it?

check monitor cables first, unplug and plug them back if the artifacts remain, is it a new monitor? is it still under warranty? have you moved that pc recently?

remove bios battery, reset cmos, check manual to be sure how to do it, i had a similar problem after a overclocking error i had with ram, motherboard just entered in panic mode, after battery removal and cmos reset that failed, all went back to normal, cmos reset doesnt really work unless you remove battery these days

well, if it workd in internet explorer then your pc is not haunted years ago tjere was a manipulated picture that crashed firefox, perhaps you found a similar situation if it only happens in chrome, dont use chrome, try firefox and see what happens if it doesnt happen in forefox or internet explorer you just discovered how well done is chrome in reality

i heard about similar situations on other brands, monitor comes with lcd pannel capable of refresh rates or resolutions well above the specs, but never had a hp doing that well, if ot keeps working like this, enjoy!

400c has a acrilic panel, 600c i think it has a glass pannel has to be corsair? i dont like much 400c, it looks cheap and airflow is not spectacular has to go in a case all the parts? you could sell the case and travel woth the parts, when you get to your destination find another case, perhaps even the same 600 if you like it that much

the active converter,for example, if your monitor is vga, buy a displayport to vga, the rtx will have 3 displayports and 1 hdmi, so you have more of those for vga if you have a dvi port on one of your old monitors, you might not need a active converter, depends on the hdmi port, i would use the hdmi port to dvi converter there, all depends on what port you have on those monitors and what outputs you have on the gpu

is a hassle to do it, some pcs will complain and will give you problems with drivers, the performance loss is big, the pci express for the wifi adapter is only 1x, that gpu need at least 4x, so ypu will see thst games will not perform as great as on a gaming pc with a 1060

most pcs when a gpu is connected will disable the motherboard outputs, so those ports will show nothing when you plug in a monitor there, unless the bios is set to leave the internal gpu to work while gpu is plugged in if when you check for display adapters the system shows two, one amd or one intel and another one that is the gpu you installed, then you might be able to use the onboard one, otherwise you need a gpu with more outputs if one of the monitors you have needs dvi or vga, convert a hdmi or displayport to vga or dvi, you will need a active converter, those active converters will need electricity via usb usually when you get your 2080, if your monitor has displayport, use that, if it has hdmi, use that the best in term of features is displayport, in terms of less hassle using it is hdmi, is the most relaxed porti have ever used
