hi all I removed my gpu for cleaning cause my pc wasn't booting and vga lamp on mobo was white after I inserted it back and run pc it ran for some seconds then kept restarting over and over till I powered it off I realized that my gpu wasn't seated properly I reseated it and now it works fine but I am afraid now that some damage may have occurred am I just worrying too much? sorry for my bad english

my case front mesh is really dusty and it seems there are stains that won't go with simple cleaning so is it safe to use water to clean it and let it dry or maybe this will cause damage to it and affects air flow ?

thanks for your suggestion i am sorry i didn't mention it but i want an ips monitor so pb277q doesn't interest me as for viewsonic i think 32 inch monitor would be too big for me as i sit very close to the monitor there is a 27 inch model which got the same price as the monitor i think on buying so i could afford it but can you tell me please if there is any particular reason i should avoid buying vz27aq

i plan on buying this monitor here so is this a good choice ? i aim for 1440p 60hz casual gaming if there is any suggestions in the same price range i would appreciate it

got 1070 ti so i think i can handle 1440p so in terms of quality and life span you think this model would be a good choice ?

it will be mainly used for gaming

i was using afterburner while i was gaming to monitor gpu and cpu temp and usage also fps suddenly a huge fps drop happened also cpu and gpu usage went down like they don't get enough power to work i closed the game afterburner part ended i opened task manager closed all other apps but still my pc is so slow noticed nothing unusual except for the system process power usage being very high while in normal circumstances it is very low or low restarted my pc everything is back to normal hope it is clear for you now after this incident i used my pc for about 12 hours nothing happened till now so hope it was just a one time thing thanks for your concern

i was monitoring gpu and cpu with afterburner while i was gaming when my pc lagged i closed the game opened task manager it showed the high power usage for system process everything else was normal still my pc was very slow so do you think this memory leak was one time thing or it could be an indicator for a bigger problem

yes gpu cpu ram and drive usage were all normal i was using task manager only system process power usage was very high also when this problem started gpu and cpu usage went down as well while i was playing i was using msi after burner so maybe it is a power related problem as they were not getting enough power to work so i had the fps drop and slow problem

i was gaming suddenly i had a big fps drop and it didn't go back to normal my temps were normal for cpu and gpu i closed the game still i had serious problems using pc it was like something is draining all resources opened task manager nothing unusual there i closed all apps but still the problem exists but i noticed something strange that system power usage was very high all other usages are normal like gpu cpu but only power was very high for system process i restarted my pc and everything is back to normal but i fear that this problem may happen again so what could be the cause for this

hi all i want to buy this device to protect my pc from surges https://www.sollatek.com/products/voltguard-isense/ i have 2 questions first i have no grounding so will this device work as it should without ground ? second my psu is BitFenix Whisper 650w in specs it say that current input is 10 amp but the max current for this device is 7 amp we use 220v so will the 7 amp be enough for my psu ?

when i boot pc i see on mobo orange green white led in order for about half second for each one then pc boots normally is that indicates any problems ?

wish i could do that if i used ups would it be any useful for me ?

thanks for your help sir so if it is not possible to rewire the house and make it grounded is there any easy way to ground my case and somehow protect it ?

so is that dangerous for my components ?

this light is always on even before i press power button and start booting what does it mean ? everything is working fine for now mobo is asus b360 pro gaming

yes i also did memory diagnostic and there were no errors

i got a new pc mobo always got a red light as long as psu plugged in even if i am not running pc it is coming from the top right edge near ram slots also when i boot i hear 2 short beeps but i got no problems right now my mobo is asus b360 pro gaming

my pc is on desk i don't have a lot of carpet i can feel the current when i am bare footed standing on tiles and yes the outlet is old and the house doesn't have grounding

it isn't static i think it is a continuous current i would put my finger on a case screw for as much time and still feel it but as i said before i have no problems with my system till now

i got no ground power cable for my house

yes all of them in place mobo is working without problems

psu power cable is also 2 prongs i checked to see if it is leaking power but when i touch it i feel nothing it is BitFenix Whisper 650w so i think it is a good quality one i suspect that mobo is making electricity flow to the case through metal standoffs and i feel it cause the case is ungrounded so current stays in case

hi all i got a new pc built it and everything working fine but lately i noticed that some parts of my case got weak electric flow (screws-io shield-gpu shield) it is nothing serious it just tingle a bit i live in an old house i got no grounding and using 2 prongs outlets i checked mobo to see if i installed it right and no problems but i noticed that standoffs also got that weak electric current so could the mobo be responsible for this as it is connected to case through those metal standoffs i have been running this pc for about a week nearly 24/7 with no problems at all but i want to know if this ungrounded case can cause damage to my components thanks in advance
