  1. It worked for a few months, but then after recent updates, it's broken again. I've given up and just assigned F24 to the key and to discord.
  2. Well, the giant blaring issue to me isn't the GPU, it's the CPU is hitting over 90C. Maybe it's the GPU, but I really doubt it.
  3. I don't know what is going on, I can see the fan clearly spinning, you said you added thermal paste. And it's still overheating.
  4. Ok, your CPU being at 93 is definitely a red flag, perhaps they forgot the thermal paste. Not joking.
  5. Warning, if you're not ready, don't bend any pins, they're super easily broken, and if it's broken, it's basically a dead board/cpu. I fully knew that risk when I did it. You can download cpu monitoring software to look at temps, such as https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html
  6. Temps are something nice to look at, when something similar happened to me a few months ago was that it turns out one of the pins on my motherboard was bent, so I just had to bend that back in place.
  7. I suppose part of it is the people I'd recommend this path to probably doesn't have the budget to upgrade much within a year or two.
  8. It's a little bit funny, my first ever computer was a HP Pavilion 1360t back in 2013. Since then, slowly upgrading over the years, from GPU, CPU, etc. I'd still been using the exact same RAM up until last year, and I still have that first harddrive in my current build. As long as you're happy with the PC, it was worth it. I personally recommend my friends to start from a pre-built and upgrade if they want a system they're happy and they're willing to take time.
  9. I want other people to weigh in on this too, but one I'd recommend is the https://www.amazon.com/MSI-Gaming-GTX-1650-Super/dp/B081R2KRCZ or https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GeForce-GTX-1650-XS/dp/B081Q6KKDS/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=1650+super&qid=1600759637&s=electronics&sr=1-4 basically any 1650 super
  10. Long story short, what I did when I had an AIO was mount it to the front on a pull configuration.
  11. I went through this a while back for myself. Luke himself said in some video I've forgotten that they prefer doing a pull configuration because it makes it easier for them to clean. But no matter which you choose, it'll have around the same performance. Location however, could affect temperature.

  12. Been afraid to watch it, no need to kneel over and cry. Hmm.
