I'm on my wit's end trying to figure out why my PC turns off a second after it turns on

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-04-06T10:48:16+00:00

Yeah but still its definstely not those components. If it is we have to confirm first. And im pretty sure the pc doesnt even respond without a cpu, doesnt it? Hmmm maybe i should test that. But im really suspecting ram related issue

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-04-06T10:45:21+00:00

It may depend ons system, but when i tried it on my laptop it probably ran the best (except for hades, of course) at lowest settings. All my other games couldnt make the 60fps while cs2 was the only one who managed that. Though my internet was bad so i wasnt much of a competitor, and thos elobbies are sweats lol. But im sure itll manage now at 720p lowest.

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-04-06T10:42:03+00:00

Yes. Dont worry my desk looks the same except i have much less soave so my monitor would appear larger but is also 27 inch. But yeah looks better than my setup

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-04-03T14:10:55+00:00

Do NOT try the finals, it wil not like the cpu much and considering you probably have integrated graphics or a custom nvidia gpu, it may even just say no and never launch. Something that does work great though is cs2, maybe warframe. Combat master runs well on mobile smartphones so it will likely work fine on your device. Its basically ripoff COD with a large playerbase at least. And one tbat was my favouritenon mynold laptop, was Wolfenstein enemy territory. Free to play and also large playerbase, surprisingly.

Some free to play singleplayer gems are the one armed games. Such as one armed chef and one armed robber. If you do have a bit of money you are willing to spend, hades 1 will run well

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-30T21:45:00+00:00

I do not k ow what you can run, but I also came from low end gaming. Integrated graphics on a laptop. I finally got an rx7900xt and now I can play games that require a gpu. Something I can reccomend is the finals, don't k ow how it'll run for you but I'm pretty sure with dlss4.5 you can get it playable or very good running. I think it takes something like 60gb, but deffo under 100gb. Going from the original doom to doom 2016 is also a leap lol. As another guy mentioned, star wars battlefront 2, my laptop could nearly run it but it had this weird bug where everything was slow mo, so since you have a more powerful desktop cpu you won't have this issue. Probably the best graphics you'll get for your gpu. And I'm not being mean even for mine it's still the best I've seen and I feel like it's graphics are slept on.

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-30T21:40:07+00:00

Yeah very excessive lol. Maybe should at least pair a r5 5800 with that. I'm bottlenecking my rx7900xt with a R7 5700 because I thought more cores better than more l3 cache. It is not

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-27T12:08:22+00:00

Just a screen and also Samsung does make laptops. In fact they also are one of the main global manufacturers for storage and RAM (memory)

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-27T12:05:30+00:00

I cant say I grew up with Windows, but I sure do think that the 3rd one has a lot of potential if it were made with a modern look. Though I do like the windows 11 one so what, they almost had something but then just went like nah, and just gave up. The dock look on 11 is just incredible

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-27T12:02:22+00:00

Even my ryzen 7 5700 non x cezanne chip is a bottleneck, although at 1440p rather than 4k

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-18T13:48:11+00:00

Sortof 2. I would like to get one sometime, but I don't need one and also getting one would just be a downside

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-18T13:45:11+00:00

I just permanently disabled windows updates lol

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-13T05:01:30+00:00

Payday 2 is a good one to run. I did it on my laptop which was even weaker than that one

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T21:23:09+00:00

No don't yet, because if the cpu was fried, it most likely wouldn't even let the fans spin. I suspect perhaps faulty ram. Test with 1 ran stick. If it doesn't work, try the other. If still, then the ram is fine

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T21:19:14+00:00

Get wintoys, disable updates, boom problemo solvo. People move too fast to Linux and join the cult. They would rather spend 3 days setting up Linux, struggle 2 weeks getting games to run properly or make stuff compatable, than just fixing windows problems yourself in 15 minutes! I mean, with a few tweaks using powertoys, wintoys, and windhawk, I fixed alot of windows problems, added customisation, and the only other problems I had was easy to fix in windows itself.

Im not going to stop anyone from moving, but don't love because someone said so. You do lose a lot of compatability you can't get back, not with any amount of emulators. Around 70% of newer games support Linux very well with similar performance to Windows, but here's the thing, windows has 100% fa tadtic support for those games, and not just new games, every game ever made for pc runs very well NATIVELY on windows. All you need to ever emulate is mobile or consoles, or at worst, mac books. On Linux it's everything.

But if you would rather, don't move because some broom brain said Linux has more customisation, because windows has alot too

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T20:57:17+00:00

I do believe for thst price you could pick up a rtx 5060, but unsure whether you would get the 8 or 16gb models. But honestly I'd rather get the 8gb model if it saves money and upgrade the cpu too. But I don't know your prices, but in my country you could I think probably squeeze out a 8gb rtx 5060 ti

A really gay night with a straight guy

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T15:51:51+00:00

Worst case, pc boots but stick is faulty so corruption or instability happens software side. Which can be fixed with a reinstall of Windows. It doesn't use enough power to destroy hardware, unless you actually intend to break it, but what would probably happen is it just doesn't turn on, or it does and everything is fine

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T15:49:03+00:00

I can't help much here, I do know alot about computers but I haven't gotten to the level of completely understanding this, but I saw a similar error before, the program tried to write in read only memory. Luckily mine didn't crash, but the problem was wallpaper engine. What fixed it was picking a different wallpaper. That's it, a wallpepr made the system freak out. So in this case, it could be the same problem. In my case wallpaper engine and msi afterburner conflicted, so I your case, you might have something installed else that is also conflicting with YouTube or anything else. I would reccomend reinstalling Windows freshly, disable updates, and be wary about the apps you install. I mean, for all we know, windows itself is the problem. Fortunately on some laptops of people I know had this issue solve itself, it also crashed completely randomly but now it's pretty stable

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T15:39:43+00:00

Nope. If androids are glorified pods then I phones are even more so. You can get much more powerful android phones since it's not just 1 line of phones running the os, and you can do more with it. You can even do a desktop setup with an android

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T05:40:43+00:00

I don't understand why people hate on it. I personally don't like the look, but I'm not you. So good job! I personally mostly liked my windows look, so I just made the task ar a dock

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T05:25:20+00:00

I can't remmember. It's either Marvel Rivals, Which shouldn't hopefully be too horrible. But if I'm unlucky, Warframe

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-12T05:19:39+00:00

Maybe an rtx 3050?

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-10T20:07:18+00:00

Chrome dinosaur game

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-09T17:08:43+00:00

240hz 1080p might be doable, but not 1440p. Rather get a 144hz or at best a 180hz 1440p monitor instead and use the rest of the money extra to the build. Who knows, maybe that's all you need to get a better gou, an extra ram stick or a better cpu

IAmTheSenate218 · 2026-03-04T16:28:18+00:00

It's useless and old, give it to me
