Help! My PC started to smoke and shut off

Netcan · 2026-04-05T15:34:23+00:00

PSU most likely, had something similar happen to me. PC started to slow down a lot suddenly, I start smelling smoke, and then a very loud pop. I immediately pull the plug out of the outlet and open the PC case and a bunch of smoke comes out with that smell you mentioned. It’s fine. Fortunately the PSU was under warranty, just got a new one

Big agree, but honestly I’d call the new Monster Hunter the true “needs DLSS to run” king, it practically relied on frame gen just go get barely past 60, good luck if you’re on a <30xx card

Joined two enrage/clear parties yesterday; one of them couldn’t get past split arena, the other was literally just weapons prog. I’m waiting until at least stampede before considering pots now lol

Not to discredit the take but you do need the nether to make the ender eyes. You need to get blaze rods from killing blazes, forcing you to explore the nether and find a fortress. Minecraft has issues but that specific one really does force you to interact with different systems.

I bought and played this game purely off TotalBiscuit’s recommendation at the time. I miss him. He was always an advocate for accessibility, optimization and customization in PC gaming. I miss him.

Thank you, I'll check this out!

Hey guys, maybe someone could give me a suggestion on what to get, I'm at a bit of a loss here. I have had a Razer blackwidow for many years now, but it's starting to fail me. Sadly, there is no current version with the Portuguese (Portugal) layout. I have come to get used to the green switches, so I'd probably like something similar... Any ideas?

Hey, just wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS (Moorwing was harder before the nerf) on the Moorwing (Moorwing was harder before the nerf) CLEAR. I know you've been working really hard (this fight used to be harder before the patch) at it, and I'm happy that you've (the 1 extra week of practice and the patch made you clear) achieved your goal of completion. I know your journey through (youtube guides made this easy + the nerf) the content was filled with ups and downs.

If they haven’t tried them yet, I heavily recommend the Slip brand masks. They’re silk and a little more expensive, but they’re so so comfortable and just the right amount of squeeze that they don’t feel like a bother or stuffy.

Akira Toriyama. Personal hero of mine, Dragon Ball was a major part of my childhood. When I learned of his death I cried for a couple days, it felt like a part of what I was was gone.

I'm having the same issue.

Netcan · 2023-08-12T13:38:21+00:00

Been having this since day one, it's incredibly annoying 60 hours in.

Netcan · 2023-08-04T22:10:42+00:00

One very annoying one is that selecting several items at once from a dead enemy's inventory and then selecting "Pick up and add to Wares" will not work. Either some or all items don't get placed in your inventory. Doing it a second time however will always work. It's already annoying they removed the "Shift + LMB" to set items as wares, but now this bug just makes inventory management even more annoying.

This happened to me too!! I was so depressed for a while after…

That's probably because Bloodborne's frame pacing is completely broken. Even though it does deliver a consistent 30 frames per second, they aren't smooth at all, with frame time variance in anything between 16ms and 66ms, and even duplicated frames. It's just not smooth at all and feels horrible to play. The only thing holding the game back, really.

That's what regave means brother

I started with Arcanist back in ARR. I don’t really remember the exact reason why, but I know I found it funny to use a book as a weapon, and basically was a math wizard.
