I'm looking to upgrade from/replace my current RX 5700 XT, in the budget ballpark of $300-$400. I was looking at the RTX 5060 at first, but with hearing about the VRAM issues I'd been leaning towards the RX 9060 XT.

I know the 9060 XT is better, and it's still within my budget, but there's also one other problem. I've been having driver issues with my current GPU - game crashes on more intense games, that specifically bring up an AMD crash report saying it was a driver error. I'm also replacing the 5700 XT because my PC has even shut off entirely a few times, and the GPU seems to be the problem. I've replaced my motherboard and PSU since then to try to fix the shutoff issues, but they've st

I've borrowed several books through Libby, and despite trying to even manually sync my Clara, they will not show up on my shelf. I did a little digging and saw that Kobo isn't able to have books from Overdrive that they don't sell through their own store, but that doesn't seem to be the problem here. I went to check, and all of the books I'm having trouble with are available through Kobo. However, when I look them up on the Kobo store through my device, there's no option to borrow directly from the Clara, unlike several of the other books I've read. Does anyone know what might be causing this, and/or what might fix it?

I'm 27 elo off plat III, and I've never been able to find a solid squad. I'm interested in competitive Siege, but I'm underage and can't play Go4's/anything ESL. I also am only consistently able to play on weekends (another side effect of being a minor). I can play most roles, but my ranked account doesn't have all the operators, and I'm not the most confident entry fragger. I'm more of a hard support player, since I have a lot of game knowledge but inconsistent aim. I have a mic. Comment here or DM me. My discord is BottleMan#6531.

Hi there.

Currently, I am debating between upgrading my GPU or my monitor. I have a GTX 970 for my GPU, and some random 21" 1080p Dell monitor with 60hz refresh rate (CPU is not an issue; I have Ryzen 7 1700 that I got on sale for about $150). I have a budget of about $300, and the end goal of playing at 1080p 144Hz. My main game is Rainbow Six Siege (I play on fairly low settings), but I have no way to check if my GPU can output enough frames to consistently hit 144Hz to avoid screen tearing. My current options that I can think of are: 1. Upgrading to a Freesync 144Hz monitor and waiting until I have more money to upgrade my GPU to either a more recent NVidia card or a Radeon card to use

Now, this is just hypothetical (I'm almost always the support player for my squads because A. I suck at fragging and B. I'm solid with the support guns), but say you have two people left undecided in a squad, and you guys need someone to main Smoke. Person A is a genuine support player (as in, mainly plays ops like Thermite), but can barely use the SMG-11. Person B is mainly a fragger, but already really good with the SMG-11. Do you have A dedicate the time to mastering the SMG-11 (because it's not an easy gun to learn), or do you have B flex onto the Smoke because he's easily one of the most useful operators in the game?

In essence, my question for consideration is this: Do y

Hi there, I recently rebuilt my computer because of the recent Newegg deal on a Ryzen 7 1700 and ASRock AB350M Pro4 motherboard, and wanted to use Ryzen Master to put a bit of an OC on it. However, despite none of my profiles having any number of cores disabled, my computer is repeatedly showing (both in Task Manager and Ryzen Master) that only 2 cores and 4 threads are running. I have tried multiple times to apply any of my profiles (both the two defaults and two custom profiles). The one time I booted without OC (my first boot to ensure everything was working), it showed 8 cores, 16 threads. Any ideas?

Edit: Reinstalling Ryzen Master seems to have fixed the problem. Windows is showing all

So, I was trying to help a friend from school with building a new PC, because his current laptop is kinda crap (he says it regularly locks up) and he wants a more powerful rig. His two main games, as far as I can tell, are ARK: Survival Evolved and Fortnite. His budget is currently about $800, and he needs a monitor and Windows key included because he's coming from laptop and console (he already has keyboard and mouse because he wanted the practice while playing console). This is my current draft for him; I was planning on putting a moderate OC on the CPU and GPU if at all possible, and I went with AMD for the price/performance ratio. He also said he doesn't care about aesthetics, so I went

Hi all,

I'm trying to run Folding@Home because it's a good cause and my PC does nothing while I'm at school for some 8-odd hours a day and sleeping/using my phone the rest of the day. However, I was noticing some temperatures that I personally considered a bit high. Afterburner is consistently reading at 70ºC (the current max I have it set to). Is that safe to run for possibly days on end? I have a GTX 970 if it matters.
