  1. Ever since I installed Spark AR by Facebook my PC has been acting weird, explorer and programs would just crash all by themselves. And my taskbar would look like this, sometimes my screen would just go black and only the mouse pointer is visible, when this happens i cannot do anything but hard reset . I’ve tried reinstalling windows (clean install, wiped C drive) but it did not get rid of the problem, used malwarebytes to scan for malware, it did not pick up anything. web browsers would just crash and restart themselves, discord would just refresh itself and vscode would just straight up crash. Please help this is really getting in the way of my work.
  2. alright i changed it from auto to enabled. ill update if i see any changes. In case it doesnt help, do you think its worth upgrading to a 5600X? or should i just spend extra and get the 5800X3D?
  3. checked just now, nothing odd there, game is at the top of the list using 40-60% of the cpu. second is msi afterburner using barely anything.
  4. UPDATE - found this on youtube , same GPU as me but with a 5600X, fps never drops below 60 and cpu usage below 10%?. So i guess my ryzen 5 3600 is bottlenecking the 3070 by quite a bit. what do you guys think?
  5. I tried the game again just now and no matter what settings i choose it doesnt make any difference. Just now i got around 40% cpu usage and 40-50% gpu usage and 40fps. Isn't this really odd with my specs? the game doesnt even have ray tracing.
  6. my RAM is in dual channel 2x8GB with XMP enabled. I tried the game again just now and no matter what settings i choose it doesnt make any difference. Just now i got around 40% cpu usage and 40-50% gpu usage and 40fps. Isn't this really odd with my specs? the game doesnt even have ray tracing.
  7. for the bios do i just get the latest one available or do i have to install the previous ones as well?
  8. so far this and marvel's spider-man are the only games i've noticed that would drop to the low 40s
  9. yeah that also made me really confused aha but to add - my GPU usage never goes above 60% and CPU usage is around 40-50% both cpu and gpu have temps under 70C
  10. in that particular game my gpu usage never goes above 60% and cpu usage is around 40-50%
  11. ok im really confused about this whole bottleneck stuff, someone please explain it to me. I have a Ryzen 5 3600, RTX 3070 and 16GB 3200mhz RAM but im struggling to get a stable 60fps in some games like need for speed unbound, when things get busy the fps would drop down to the low 40s. On average i get around 80-100fps in that game. what i don't understand is why is my build struggling so much at 1080p, with a card like a 3070 shouldn't it be no problem to get a stable 60fps at 1080p? Some people told me that its my monitor thats the bottle neck and some are saying that its the cpu. But why is the performance worse at lower resolutions? and should i get a 5800X3D and use the same 1080p 60hz monitor or get a 1080p 144hz monitor and stick with the 3600? Thanks. Edit: In Need for Speed Unbound my GPU usage never goes above 60% and CPU usage is around 40-50% both cpu and gpu have temps under 70C
  12. alright, i guess ill have to upgrade to a better cpu cooler. Thank you for all the info
  13. Front is closed, I tried opening it along with the side panel and then again with the front closed and the side panel opened but it didn’t make much of a difference
  14. two intake on the front one exhaust on the back. Front is closed, doesn’t seem to make much of a difference when I leave it open so rn Its closed and then open the side panel. I don’t have fans on top.
  15. It idles at 43-45°C some spikes to 47°C When gaming: Need for speed Heat: 77-80°C Valorant: 50-62°C GPU never goes above 65°C when gaming I have one Cooler Master Mk120 S2 exhaust fan and two Arctic P12s as intake fans. Case is a Deepcool macube 110. With glass panel on cpu temps reach 90°C. Without the glass panel I get the temps mentioned above. I’ve tried with the front panel removed as well and got around the same results mentioned above. Is this normal for a 3600 with stock cooler? Specs: Cpu - Ryzen 5 3600 GPU - Zotac RTX 3070 twin edge RAM - Hyper X fury 8GB Mobo - Asrock b450 Pro r2 PSU - Corsair CX650 Is this normal for a 3600 with stock cooler? or are these really bad temps and should I get an aio or a better air cooler? edit: cpu temps while playing Valorant are 53-66°C
  16. can the cooling solution and backplate of a Zotac RTX 3070 (2 fans) be replaced with the 3 fans one from the msi 3070 or strix 3070? would the PCBs have the same mounting holes for the screws?
  17. Update: if i tap the left shift key and then press 2 very quickly it works, i get the @ symbol but if I press and hold the left shift key and press 2 it doesn't work.
  18. hmm, ill try to scan for malware. Can't test an external keyboard cause im out of town rn
  19. Acer Nitro 5 Cpu - i5 7th gen Ram - 8GB Storage - 256GB SSD (Boot drive) & 500GB nvme IMG_0875.heic
  20. basically the title, it works with every single key except the 2/@ key. Just started happening a few days ago. Laptop is an Acer Nitro 5 Help!
  21. Please help! my laptop acer nitro 5 keeps booting straight to bios if i turn it on after a shut down, before this it would go straight to bios even after a restart. i updated the bios and it fixed it for a few days but then it started happening again but now it only happens after a shut down.
  22. I don’t know where else to ask, no one is replying. Hope it’s okay to ask here. This happened today, never had the problem before. I was playing sekiro shadows die twice , i minimized it and so the console was on the home screen and then I went to get something to eat. When I came back I saw the screen flickering and when I navigate through the menu to reboot the console , the sound was distorted. After rebooting everything was fine. What could’ve caused it? Should I be worried?
