Could TV be as good as monitor for console gaming
GabeThePCHelper replied to name66's topic in Displays
Personally, I'd stick with a monitor to just be safe on the points of having better latency and what not. -
Help! I'm a total noob.
GabeThePCHelper replied to Reagle1330's topic in Laptops and Pre-Built Systems
As its a laptop, all you'll be able to upgrade is the RAM and SSD. https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/Acer/aspire-a515-51g -

-
SSI EEB is a motherboard form factor. This will surely take some digging to find. I modded an large ATX case the Deepcool Matrexx 55 to fit a large board.

Now that you say that, it possibly could be your microphone, not your motherboard, what's interesting is how it works for any other motherboard but not your own.

PC does not boot after installing new cpu
GabeThePCHelper replied to kriptcs's topic in Troubleshooting
My mistake, whoops. I meant to say that to avoid a lot of these bios updating problems for the new 3rd gen you need to use a x570 board. -
Truth to that. Even sometimes their 'better' quality stuff fails, I bought a 750w 80+ Gold PSU and it just up and failed about a day after finally getting it working.

no signal New pc build no signal help!
GabeThePCHelper replied to AshleyA19's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Do what @fasauceomerecommended, ancient bios for a modern chip just doesn't work out. -
PC does not boot after installing new cpu
GabeThePCHelper replied to kriptcs's topic in Troubleshooting
Use your old CPU to update the bios. This is only really happening because of the new Ryzen CPU's requiring that you're running x570. -
Little I can offer here, but it just sounds like you have some junk USB ports. Buying used motherboards can always have hidden problems that the seller didn't tell you about.

jeez... Why are these things even being sold, that thing would just go poof and you've destroyed your entire build. I recommend at least 450w+ and maybe 80+ Bronze at the minimum and stay away from brand names you don't recognize.

Theres little to no chance that you'll get removed/scrubbed from the internet like @jstudrawasaid. Sadly that's just how the internet works, once it's out there it's pretty much permanent.

Where do you put your video requestes for LTT?
GabeThePCHelper replied to Velurian's topic in General Discussion
LTT Official, first thread there. -
70C is acceptable for running benchmarks, what are your temps when you're just gaming? Idle temp is high, I'd adjust your fans to have a harsher curve.
