Hi, the last couple of days my monitor has been losing connection to my pc, screen goes black, then coming on again for a second, going black etc. its a new pc, only had for a couple of weeks, havent had this issue before. im using displayport and latest nvidia drivers. if i restart the pc, it seems to connect fine and stay on. how do i fix it?
Hi! i cant wait to play both horizon games on my new gaming pc, what's the best controller for them? the dualsense is the obvious choice, but would a high end xbox one be better? like a hall effect one
How much of a problem is stick drift on the dualsense? because it seems like a great controller but its still potentiometer
Hi! im looking for a controller for pc gaming, does an xbox one work for playstation games (horizon, god of war etc) or do you need a dualsense? because i would rather not get the official ones, i was trying to decide gamesir cyclone 2 vs easysmx d10
sorry for the reflections on the glass, using Frame 5000D, Nautilus 360 RS ARGB, Dominator Titanium RAM and RS120/140 ARGB fans
Hi! im building my first pc in a few days, any tips on the build? this is the first time ive built a pc before. parts: [PCPartPicker Part List](https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/ZyVNzv)

Hi! im buying a new controller for only pc gaming, which version of the dualsense is best? im also getting an xbox controller as well.
which should i get?
Day #460! most stuff is work in progress though. 4.25 days with world open, 3.75 days played. the furthest ive ever got in survival before
how do i learn speedrunning? what mods/programmes will i need and where do i get them? im not great at it but i want to learn how
ps5 dualsense or xbox wireless controller for pc? dualsense has better features and build quality but idk if compatibility will be an issue?
Hi! im getting a new monitor for my gaming pc, should i get a 34" 3440x1440 or 32" 4k? both are almost identical (only difference is one is a slightly older panel with a different subpixel layout) i only play single player games. im upgrading from 16" 1080p, so the ultrawide will be a little less sharp than im used to. which is best?

hi! im trying to decide between an xbox or playstation controller, i game on my pc and play single player games. xbox will be the i think its series x controller, the one with the new d pad, ps will be the dualsense. ps has more features for the same price, and a rechargeable battery, but would compatibility be an issue? i havent used either so dont have a preference for the different designs
hi! im building my first gaming pc soon, and im trying to decide between a 34" 3440x1440 or 32" 4k. i got a 5080, only play single player games, upgrading from 16" 1080p 60hz laptop. which should i get? i know at that least one of my games doesnt support ultrawide at all, the others do but may not with ui/cutscenes, but one is 16:9 only

should i get a woled or qd oled for gaming? qd has better colours and a glossy screen, but ive heard some people say it gives them eye strain. also its a little more expensive than woled.
frame gen gets so much hate, but i havent used it yet so idk how bad it really is . . . some people say never use it, others say max out 6x all the time. i got a 5080, planning 4k, only play single player games, using a mix of kb + mouse and controller. how bad is it? should i use it?
some people say the 5080 is great for 4k, others say its more of a 1440p card. which should i use for my 5080 for single player games?
