So I was thinking of getting soldering things to do it myself once I saw how small the piece and that I have it apart. The laptop is an inspiron 7000 2 in 1 so you probably saw the correct piece. What would I need to do this myself?

I hope not because I don't know what that means lol.

Damn... I don't have any soldering equipment...

Ok. I have started to try and remove it, lol. I'm used to desktop towers so compact ones, I'm having to learn lol.

I havnt worked on laptops much so if I need to take the motherboard out, I can. But here's what I have to far.

So I bought my wife a laptop almost 2 years ago and a few months back, it stopped charging. I've tested the cord and it works on my phone. It's a usb-c cord. I can't seem to find the parts or a replacement part. Either I suck at searching for it or it's just hard to find. So I'm looking for help here! It's a- Dell Inspiron 14 7000 Laptop Reg Model: P147G Reg Type No: P147G001 ST: CRW1NG3 I know USB-C charging ports have problems but I'm trying to not have to pay several hundred dollars in repair fees if I can replace it myself.

Oh ok. Cool, then! Thank you!

@PixelfieOk so there's honestly not much of upgrades the CPU can handle, is what you're saying? My monitor reso is 1440 but some games I play at 1080. I was thinking I would need to upgrade my CPU before I large GPU upgrade. So if that's what you were getting at, then I'll have to save up a bit longer. And yes, I favor NVidia stuff for sure. This was a budget build that was made too quickly and should have had a lot more research done about parts and such, lol.

It works pretty well but not as much as I'd like. So It's not a necessary upgrade I just want to see where I can go with it, from people with more experience than I do. Not really a budget because, like I just mentioned, I'm just trying to see where I can go with it. @Mayday793Thank you for informing me about the lettering. I had just seen somewhere that the F was not good. Still trying to do research and learn more detailed stuff about all this, lol.

So I recently built my PC and am looking to upgrade my GPU now that prices have dropped. My parts are: Mother Board - ASRock H670M PRO RS CPU - Intel Core i3-12100F GPU - Radeon RX 6500 XT 4GB I know the CPU was probably a mistake since there's an F at the end. Didn't pay close enough attention (Had a TON of stuff going on at the time). But I'm trying to find what kind of GPU upgrade the board and processor could handle.

Yes, it was fully shut down. I can't do anything with it because it only gets to the desktop screen for aboit 2 seconds before it restarts again.

So I unplugged my computer to move my desk and now it is stuck in a loop. It will start up normal but right when it gets to the desk top screen, I see a small notification up it installing or updating driver in the bottom right then a second later it is restarting. This is windows 7, btw. Any got some tips on how to fix? We have a new born so havnt had much time to look through Google myself and you guys have always been really helpful.

Hey all! I'm looking for a server to play on as playing alone gets old and boring to me. I'm just a casual player and only play maybe 2 to 3 times a week. I'm also in central time US. Anyone know of a server? Lol

It was a little but I could not find a paperclip, of all things lol. Had some spare wire and just pulled the ends off lol. It's the Ultra LSP750 750 watt. Way more than what I needed I believe. And it's almost 7 years old. I'll have to check my parts through partschecker website again but I believe I only needed like 500 if that to run it. Sad part is I spent almost $1400 when I first built it (high end MB and Processor and apparently psu to upgrade the rest later) and just found a pre-built on Amazon for 650 that out does it with Windows 10 instead of 7. Ugh.
