  1. Hey all - been a while My RTX 3060, (Gigabyte vision if that matters), is going crazy. When I'm surfing on edge it can randomly spike to around 50% or more - When I open a new tab it spikes around 30 percent. Is this normal??? ^ My drivers seem up to date - at least Geforce Experience says they are? Along with these random spikes, this is my gpu usage while I'm playing a ROBLOX game on low graphics q Is this normal / am I overreacting? Or am I doing something wrong? thanks in advance
  2. do you have any case recommendations that look good as well?
  3. To be honest, I'm not even sure. Trying to plan out a budget-ish build, and I don't know which is better. I want to know in terms of gaming AND general work.
  4. Budget (including currency): ~1000 cad, can go a BIT more. Country: Canada Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Roblox, Minecraft, Blender, Rust, Valorant, Guild Wars 2, Schoolwork, Video editing, Programming. Pretty much it. Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): I have all my peripherals. I would also like some reassurance if all of the parts fit together properly, especially the fans. I have no idea what the difference between 140mm and 120mm is. https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/PZ8Krr Thanks in advance.
  5. The title says it all. I was previously going to purchase the 5600x because, well, yeah its good. But for some reason, the r 3700x is priced lower than the 5600x currently. Is it actually better to go for the 3700x? Or should I stay with the 5600x? If your wondering the uses of what I would use it for, probably triple a gaming and coding and schoolwork.
  6. Budget (including currency): ~1500 CAD, can go a little higher and lower. Country: Canada Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Minecraft,Valorant, And im trying some triple a titles like rust and the Witcher. Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): I really like the Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini case, and want a build that has that and some nice fans.... But anything goes, as long as it kinda looks good lol <.<
  7. The title says it all lol... I'm wondering if the case has any pre-installed fans or comes with some.
  8. Budget (including currency): 2000 CAD Country: Canada Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Not demanding games at all... Like Roblox , Minecraft, Valorant, things like that, but I'm starting to get into more demanding games, like Rust. Also work and some coding Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): I need a keyboard, mouse, and monitor, IF it fits into the budget. I already have some good ones, but if they can be fit in the budget, then sure.
  9. Hello! My friend just announced a competition, where if i can build a computer for 200 - 400 dollars CANADIAN that can handle good work and lots of video calls and lots of random tabs and stuff open. and abosuley no games other than a random web game his kids might play on it. Requirements: Can do work Has SSD New parts. looks somewhat good Can support 3 monitors. I'm allowed to use aliexpress... LOL. IS this task even possible? If so, what should i do? THANKS A LOT!
  10. thanks a lot. Is it possible to put them back, or would I need replacements?
  11. Hey, all! I'm planning on customizing my G502 hero mouse. I have a lot of white in my setup, and i want to add some. I don't know what to do at all, though. This just randomly came to my mind. What are the steps to paint it? any videos that could help? would I need to dissemble my mouse? If I did, How would I do it? (I found this image, even though this is an older version of the same mouse, i really like how it looks, and ill probably copy it.)
  12. Thanks a lot again, I have a question. I found someone that i can buy a q8200 quad, but what does that x mean under the MT, DT, and SFF? Does it mean those ones are incompatible? (I have a SFF, by the way.)
  13. really helpful. is this the type of gpu that will work? https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=43_557_559&item_id=107934
  14. It shouldn't really matter if the cable management is okay. Your choice.
  15. Hello all. I am currently working on restoring a Dell Optiplex 760, which is pretty old. I keep seeing all of these videos of people restoring them though. I'm trying to get it to be able to do some gaming and normal school work for my brother. Here are it's specs: (it has no GPU or integrated graphics. It has a pcie x16 slot also. I know what storage i have, but don't know the wattage of the power supply.) Its really hard to find the best CPU that I can put in this, and the chipset is intel q45/q43 express chipset. I think i heard somewhere that dell didn't validate some of the CPUs that the chipset did, and I don't really know. If you need any more info, let me know. What I'm trying to find is a good GPU to put in this oldie. I'm not really that good at looking for things like that. I'm in Ontario, Canada. The price range is around 250 dollars CAD or less. Also, what is the best CPU that this thing can support? the dual core processor isn't very good. Thanks in advance, and if you have any advice or videos that can help me, it would be really appreciated. Thanks!
  16. Hey guys! Here we go again... My friend has finally seen his errors, and sold his 2 year old Chromebook. He wants to play some certain games, like Roblox and Rocket League, Fortnite, things like that. He has a budget of 700 CAD, and will use it for school also. Windows Only. Integrated graphics are fine, but if possible, a gpu would be nice. He doesn't care at ALL if its refurbished or even scratched or something, He just desperately needs a new laptop. Any suggestions?

  20. I once had that problem with my old PC. I just signed out of microsoft and signed in again, and it worked. But my brother tried it, and it didnt work for him. Worth a shot, though. I dont think it activated anytihng.

  22. i agree with everything he said, except usually other sites are cheaper than amazon. but if this is the cheapest available, go for it.
