So I recently got pretty upset that my pc was running really bad in games, so I did a whole new refresh on it. Everything was replaced wires, cards, power supply,motherboard. etc.
Let’s just use Fortnite as an example I used to get into tight situations and my fps would drop to 20. Very stuffers and lag. Anyways. Clean refresh and I even got windows 11 pro with all the upgrades. Even did a whole wipe of everything to start over.
NOW I will say I did not buy the best of the best I have just the stuff for a medium range of performance, it’s on the higher end of ddr4. Now the specs of my pc are perfect they work perfectly I’m just not sure if there’s stuff I missed to install or little settings I need to tweak I’m not sure. Any help will help.

I have a 5080 and a ryzen 7 9800x3d with a pretty beefy 1000w PSU as well as 64 gigs of ram I keep seeing others with the same hardware geting better frames and more performance in games like tarkov,Squad, shader MC I think I’ve realy Reached my wits end with trying to figure this out by my self so I’ve thrown down my pride and come to here to ask for help

I have a broken laptop that have all of my games and files

and i want to build a new pc, is there a possible way to get all my files and games to my pc?

and the broken laptop have a sata ssd

My PC at work is severely underpowered, and id love recommendations on a replacement. Doesn't need to have all the lights and fun stuff. Need enough power to power 2 monitors at decent frame rate.

Hello everybody this is my first time posting on this channel, i have a problem with my pc and my friend told me to go to the big boys (u guys). So basically i switched my motherboard and added in a new ssd and my performance has worsened.

my specs were

• amd ryzen 5 5600x
• nvidia geforce 4060 ti
• asus prime a320-mk (old motherboard)
• ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PLUS WIFI II (new motherboard)

with the old motherboard ii had 400-500 fps on valorant. I had no noticeable fps drops during my game. with my new motherboard i have 300 fps max, and it drops to 200.

i clean installed my windows, updated my bios drivers, chipset drivers, nvidia drivers. i have been in to my bios around 50 times the last week alone. i cleaned my pc out, reapplied thermal paste on my cpu. if theres any help u guys can give i would appreciate it

What are my options on getting Windows 11 for free? I really don't want to pay all this money to Microsoft but I'm also hesitant to use these Windows activators to activate my Windows 11 installation.

Has anyone got any experience with various methods of activating Windows for free or on a tight budget? I really don't want to fork out all that money, I would rather spend it on components.

What's the best way?
- Salvaged key
- MAS/MassGrave
- KMS Activator

I don't really know anything about this and I just want to be on the safe side of everything.

theres a problem where my pc wont connect to my wifi and it will just randomly disconnect out of nowhere and i cant find my wifi after when though everything else works in the house.

what could the problem be?

Current specs:

• Intel Core i7-8700 3.2GHz
• Nvidia Quadro P620
• 48 Gb DDR4 Ram

Thank you in advance and let me know if you need any additional information

I have a PC i bought last year. I use it daily, a week ago it suddenly took a very long time to start up. It has EZdebug LED on it that stay lit a constant red and yellow instead of just the white one blinking on startup. Is this something I can fix?

Hi all!

Can anyone recommend a decent pre built gaming pc for about 1800 english pounds.
I've had a look round and there always seem to be a caveat of something quite poor.
Mainly play COD , battlefield and want Forza 6 to run nice.

Thanks in advance!

I’m able to make a pc with a 5090, 32gb ram, 9850x3d, and a x870e for £4755 or $6364 and I’m not sure whether thats good value or not
