Even after following 2 youtube setup tutorials step-by-step, I still can't get MSI Afterburner to show up in my games. I've downloaded both the Afterburner and RivaTuner, and selected everything that I want to have showing up. But I just can't get it to show up. Does anyone know how I can get it working?

So I'm trying to help a friend build a gaming rig. While he is going to play more moder titles, he cares more about frames than graphics. The main games he's going to play are CoD, BF, GTA, etc. So far we got a pretty okay setup, and still have €230 left. What GPU would go well with the Ryze 3 3100 for that price?

Dude I only heard of DBrand.... Havent checked it, I only know they make skins. I wanted to make sure before using my time to look at their offers.

Okay, so I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I didnt know where else to post this. So, my question is, when buying a DBrand skin (for the Series X as an example), do I recieve just the skin and then apply it onto my Xbox, or do I recieve an Xbox with the skin already applied?

Unfortunatly no - I've had it ever since I built my PC though. I have the RTX 2060 in, but the processor I'm still waiting for. I'd say its not so good on effiency, however it has been able to power my GPU, though it feels like my GPU isnt reaching its full capabilities. I do think this is because of my current CPU bottlenecking it, I still want to know if my PSU could be a part of the problem.

I'd like to know if my PSU would be capable to power my PC while playing games. Originally when I bought my PC, I didnt have a lot of money to put into it, so I had to go for cheaper options. I have an off brand 550W power supply. Will this be able to run an R5 3600 paired with an RTX 2060? I mainly plan on playing Cyberpunk 2077, CoD, GTA V, etc.

I live in Ireland, so I'd be going off of UK prices if I were buying a new one. A 3600 is £185 (around $250) and a 3700X is £298 (around $400), and I'm sure if I looked for a used one, I'd be able to find it cheaper.

I'd say go for the 2080S. Its a really good price and it'll be quite some time before 3000 series GPU's are on the market for reasonable prices.

What is your mobo and CPU? To me it sounds like either there is insufficient airflow either for the GPU or in general, or the GPU is somehow damages. A less likely cause could be that either the PSU is damaged or is not powerful enough, but thats highly unlikely.

I plan on playing a pretty heavily modded GTA V. Would the 3600 handle a lot of mods, or should I go with the 3700X if I'm modding? I wont be doing much more than that.

Okay, so, I am planning on getting a new processor. I have my eyes on the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and AMD Ryzen 5 3600. My PC currently has an RTX 2060, a 550 watt PSU and a Gigabyte ga-ab350-gaming 3 mobo. Which CPU will run on this setup? I have the funds for both, but I want to know which one will work. I'm mainly planning on playing CoD MW, Insurgency: Sandstorm, GTA V, etc.

Okay, thanks. So I'll also have to upgrade my motherboard in that case.

Okay, so I'm planning on upgrading my CPU. However, my motherboard is on the older side, it being the Gigabyte GA-AB350-Gaming 3. It does have an AM4 though. So, what I want to know is, what CPUs would work on it? Can I just get any AM4 CPU, such as a Ryzen 9 3950X? Or do cerain newer CPUs require newer mobos, even if they are AM4?

Do we know what the recommended setup is for an RTX 3070? What I mean by this is the minimum watts, CPU, etc. I'm planning on buying one, but I want to know what the required components are to run it without bottlenecking it.

Is it possible to have two keyboards plugged into and working on 1 PC? Would it be possible to asign hotkeys to one keyboard without them interfering with the second? I want to know this because I have some games that have a lot of hotkeys, and a second keyboard would nice to have the hotkeys assigned to.
