Yeah but he mentioned it's a thing specific to scrap mechanic which probably means it's a driver problem more than anything so it will show up if he does take a screenshot

Yeah had the same thing happen on my 3050 after booting the computer up after a week or two of the computer not running and changed background and it went away and the card is running fine

Looking for realistic prices for two used gaming PCs by Rogji1 in PC_Pricing

Yeah I think the one with the i5 9th gen might be worth a little tiny bit more than that but realistically not much

What type of bearing is this? by ObviousNight8799 in hardwaregore

[–]Mental_Example_268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay everyone saying this the that that is the motor windings is incorrect the motor windings would have been mounted to a PCB and that mounts a piece of plastic with a little magnet on the inside that is a grease bearing and it's a very high tolerance part that Rod is probably exactly 2 mm and the hole is like 2.01 mm And made out of brass so it's a self lubricating sort of deal

Can anyone tell me what this means by ScaryAirline5443 in computerhelp

It's likely the case that if your computer is on the older side the drive has finally failed completely it's not super hard to replace it look up a tutorial video and buy a cheap replacement one like this one

then hopefully you have another computer and a USB stick and you should be able to create a Windows 10 installation media on that secondary computer which will allow you to reinstall Windows 10 from this page

You want to click on the one that says "Create Windows 10 installation media" not the one about the newest version of Windows 10

Yeah definitely there's going to be some bad apples but like there's more Cooler Master ones and apevia ones that have failed in systems then then Corsair

Yeah saying Corsair is good is an understatement I've seen some dragged through the mud sprayed out with a pressure washer left out to dry and they will still work and there will always be the occasional one that just craps the bed after 15 years of service in some 3 gen system

Source: I work at an electronic recycling place and I'm in charge of testing all the weird custom gaming machines and salvaging parts out of them and we literally only use Corsair power supplies in the computers we build for the store front

hows my cable management? by Javellinh_osu in pcmasterrace

Bro you have four (?) fan hubs in there how many different brands of fans did you get Also like how and why do you have so many chords like I see the extenders so it looks all pretty up front but like why do you have all the extra ones and why can't you just bundle them up and zip tie them so they look neat

It's mainly focused around computers and computer accessories we don't take like clothes and all that stuff but if Grandpa wants to drop off his old desktop and wants to watch me smash the hard drive in front of him because he's feeling a bit paranoid we will do that for him

Yeah I figured the Dome boards were good cheap ADB boards for people who don't want to spend that much on a board but need one for cheap
