PC Problems you live with

Guest

-snip-

I had this problem a few days ago, restarted and everything was fine.

Happens to my friend every time he moves his PC for a LAN party. Reboots again and it's fine, quite strange really.

I have had to have my NZXT H230's side panel open since I bought my aftermarket CPU cooler, a HYPER 212 EVO, and of course it's so tall I can't close the case.  I feel stupid for not comparing the height of the cooler to the space allocation of my case before buying it.

My life is consumed by CS:GO, even though I'm not exceptionally good at it.

My Graphics Card has a connector problem, sometimes the screen doesn´t work at all, got a R9 290 Tri-X OC. Need to replace that probably, still got the guarantee.

OS is all fucked up, takes so long to start, turn off, etc. I'm too lazy to format it and then have to handle with my ~2TB of data.

My case makes a rattling sound sometimes and stop when lightly pushing on the top or front panel.. Also, PSU coil whine when my system is off. Oh, and HORRIBLE GPU sag.

Specs are on my profile page

I've got a Zalman Reserator 3 Max that has a chance for the pump to not reengage if the system is shut down wrong. Takes about 5-15min of trying to power up every minute or so before it starts working again.

Gears jammed in the pump, maybe?

Every once in a while when I start my PC up it starts to boot right before the post screen it shuts off and restarts, weird but not a big enough deal to mess with trying to fix it, also a front usb 2.0 port on my case is going out I think but o well

I still have an old samsung spinpoint F3 that I record gameplay footage to. when it's spinning but not writing/reading data, it hums at an oscillating frequency that can be heard from anywhere in the house, like its coming from everywhere and nowhere at once. I have it set to sleep if I don't use it for a few minutes, but holy geez...

I'd disable that if I were you. Every spin-up and spin-down degrades the drive's spindle motor. Harmonic vibrations are only likely to worsen because of that.

Rule with your heart,

And live with your conscience.
