I agree. Unless it's electrically conductive. Then you're fucked if it gets in the wrong places. lol Don't quote me on this, but I think very few are(so pls dont hold me responsible if you break your pc by shortening it out with thermal paste lol)

Not even sure myself lmao

I think the "contacts around the chipset" are resistors

Which kind of interface are you using?

Not sure if you really *have* to spend that much... Guess if you wanna get a not-as-fancy monitor, you could just buy an AOC V24G1. Its colours seem pretty ok if not decent to *me*(don't quote me on that one) and I really like it in general... Thing is, it's curved, 144Hz, 1080p, looks pretty good(to me that is, not guaranteeing for anything lol), has a height-adjustable stand, all for just about $200, although for that price I really wouldn't expect HDR. Please pardon my laziness, but here's something I said about it last decade(sorry, I'm aware that was cringe but I couldn't resi

Just checked, it's build 10240. How exactly would I upgrade tho?

Really starting to seem incompetent, but I just reinstalled Windows 10 on an old machine off of my nearly 4-year old installation DVD, as we don't have any USB sticks at hand(apparently), and I was just trying to update to the newest version of Windows after Lightroom told me the currently installed one was too old. Only problem now, it won't let me update, instead it tells me where is a problem with the error code 0x80240fff. Already tried running windows' own troubleshooting thingy and restarting a couple of times, but nothing's changed as of yet. Any input on the matter would be more than w

Have you got another GPU you could try to at least boot with??

I'd say at least try high performance, guess it could be worth a shot...?

I'd say also make sure to check which power plan you've selected in windows.?

Guess you could do it, I used to do it with my old CPU to save some GPU power, especially when just looking at my desktop, although performance probably isn't really an issue with a 1080...

Is it stuck in a boot cycle or does the screen simply not turn on?

Kind of depends on what you're going to be doing/playing and at what resolution and refresh rate, I'd say...?

What about temperatures and power? Do your components overheat and get enough juice? Also, are you sure everything(including the RAM) is running at the right clockspeeds?

I like to use Geizhals, as apparently, it even shows the lowest prices in not just Germany, but also(all?) of Europe... https://geizhals.de/?fs=aoc+24g2u The cheapest one I could find on there right now is about €172 on Amazon Germany.? As for shipping, you might wanna consider other options/other sellers that are closer to you and sell you the monitor for less money, price and shipping combined, although you could probably get some amazing deals buying used...
