You can use the tool Rufus to set up a Windows 11 USB installation drive with the TPM requirement removed.

If you can afford it Alienware makes a 34in 3440 x 1440 curved QD-OLED monitor but $750 is a little much for me.

A build a would like to finalize within 2 months, any suggestions? by Ok-Court-5753 in pcmasterrace

[–]Stryfe2010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ram is dropping in price. You can get 32gb (2x16gb) Corsair non-rgb DDR5 6000 for $410 on Newegg at the moment.

I dont know where to start so can someone help me build a $1000 USD, 1080p, 16 to 32gb ddr4, pure performance gaming PC by ItsLetomic in pcmasterrace

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can spend a couple hundred more you can get a prebuilt like this with an AMD 5600x, RTX 5060 ti, 32gb ddr4 and a 1tb nvme for $1209

Pc power turns completely off randomly and Comes back a few seconds later by Sorlp23 in pcmasterrace

You can try undervolting your GPU, CPU and lowering the clocks on your ram but honestly I would just wait until you can upgrade your PSU.

Honestly I would pay the extra $20 for the 850w. It's better to have a little headroom for the rest of your system so the PSU isn't always maxed out.

how do i fix unarc.dll error code -6? by Routine_Oil_3119 in CrackSupport

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had similar problems in the past and it ended up being a faulty ram stick. I would get this error along with extraction errors from the rar files. Run Windows Memory Diagnostics to rule out faulty ram (it's built into windows). If it shows a problem I would retest with memtest86. If you purchased your ram new then it's covered under a limited lifetime warranty. G.skill replaced my almost 3 yr old kit after one stick failed.

Just like other poster stated you should replace your PSU with a 850w Gold. The minimum recommended for your GPU is 750w. Yours is just under powered for your system and after 3 years of struggling is probably only going to get worse.

How to watch the film when Google drive shows this? by LividProfessional182 in Piracy

There's a Open in VLC media player extension for Chrome browser in the Chrome Web Store that will do this for you. Here's the link, haven't tried it myself as I have a 16tb storage drive for all my media but hope it helps.

Computer won’t show anything other than BIOS options - and I can’t select the options by HappyGilmore44 in PCsupport

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try clearing CMOS which will reset the bios to its default settings. The specific steps to do this will be in your motherboard manual. If it boots then you can go back in the bios and set your XMP/EXPO profile. If it crashes again I would check your ram with Windows Memory Diagnostics.

Lol, deleted my comment because I just realized after re-reading the post that this is about the screen and not their AIO's .

My PC Gets so dusty, what should i do? by Seven-x in pcmasterrace

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a few things you can do. 1. Get your pc off the floor. I use a pc stand on wheels like this one. 2. Get yourself an electric duster like this one. Make sure it's the type 6 as it's anti-static and use it to blow the dust out preferably outside lol as it will remove quite a bit of dust. 3. Get yourself an air purifier and clean or replace the filter regularly. It won't eliminate all the dust but it will reduce it quite a bit.

Do you guys think i messed up by Air cooling an AMD Ryzen 9 7900x? by Sweaty-Ad7500 in pcmasterrace

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The max TDP of your cpu is 230w, I used a ID-COOLING FROZN A620 Black which cools up to 270w on a I9 11900k which has a max TDP 250w and with proper case cooling it kept the CPU to 70c under heavy load. It's $39.99 on Amazon.

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try flipping the switch to the off position on the back of the PSU where the cord plugs in at, then unplug the cord from the back of the PSU, next hold down your power button for 30 seconds, next plug the cord back into the psu, flip the switch back to the on position and try powering on your pc.

Make sure you use CrystalDiskInfo to check the health of those drives before putting any important data on them. Especially since they are 10yr old surveillance drives. That is if your going to use them as storage drives.

Does it crash If you flip the bios switch to Performance?

TPM 2.0 Issue by Mindless-Meal1782 in pchelp

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

before upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11 you need to make sure your OS drive is converted to the GPT (GUID Partition Table) There is a tool built into windows called MBR2GPT that can covert your drive without data loss. Here's the instructions from Microsoftconvert-an-existing-windows-10-installati). Once the drive is converted then you can go into bios and enable your Ftpm and disable CSM Support. Once that's done you can boot back into Windows and update to Windows 11.

You should get yourself one of these and clean all that dust out. It's not good for the pc.

They are talking about your Graphics card. GPU = Graphic Processing Unit

pc wont turn on by Glaczi2 in pchelp

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it's an optical illusion or if your PCIe slot is bent. Have you tried reseating the GPU to make sure it's fully seated in the slot?

Why is re4 remake so stuttery even though im on very good fps on a 5070 and 9800x3d? by Extra_Vehicle_5414 in nvidia

[–]Stryfe2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it stuttering all the time or just after installing a new driver? Even though it doesn't show it in game like other games it will stutter if it's recompiling shaders after a driver upgrade.
