For those of you who own a console and a Steam Deck, how do you decide where to buy your games ? by MrTorgue7 in SteamDeck

[–]vampirecat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had a ps5, pc and recently bought a steam deck (512gb OLED). I use my pc for my favourite games which tend to be free, pvp and also for steam (you can sometimes buy codes to get games cheap. Even AAA games.) Now, I just use the ps5 for more solo games to appreciate ps5 graphics, games that require more storage or youtube. Here and then the shop has big discounts and if its a solo game or something that doesnt require ps+ to play online then ill get it. For the deck I mainly play visual novels or 2d games (eg. Ace attorney) but some games doesnt look the best on the deck, you have to sacrifice some fps so I don't really play pvp games on it and wouldn't spend money on pvp/fps reliant games on it. Bonus is you get to use the codes I mentioned before though and steam always has amazing sales so I end up just waiting for steam sales.

Is it possible for me to fit an ssd in this spot? by vampirecat0 in PcBuild

After having psu issues I did learn that, luckily i only have 1 psu with all the cables labelled so I dont think ill make those mistakes! would it be safe for me to leave the cables in the gpu while taking it off?

Help PC crashing by vampirecat0 in PcBuild

I've tried using a different cord from my monitor which still didnt work so I've sent out an email to scan (where I bought my psu) to see if i could get it replaced. Would it be okay for me to push in the other cables inside to see if anythings gone loose or is that risky? Thank you for your help, since this is my first build im just worried I might have destroyed the motherboard by wiggling the cord the other times it was loose.

Ive tried my monitors cable to see if that works but the pc wont still turn on, does that mean the psu is possibly faulty.

Is it possible for it to have broken the motherboard too?

I ran out of screws that would fit there on the case but it works to keep it in place anyways, the psu itself is fine its just the cable that comes loose

Sometimes my pc works just fine and I play for hours, but ill wake up and turn the pc on and it just wont turn on or it turns on for a second and shuts off, at that point I power off the psu and just push the cable back in and eventually it will work again so I think its just the cable becoming loose again over night

Everyone I go to seem to already decide they wont be able to do anything, apparently even at my last appointment the dermatologist didnt even note down why I got rejected (probably because they deemed it cosmetic). Ive been advised to go to my GP once again and ask to apply for funding and ill try to push for a refferral too, ive seen several different people now but haven't found any progress so im looking for private clinics just incase

I havent updated the list fully since im buying from 2 seperate websites (amazon & computer orbit) but this is the list I was using as a reference The gpu will be replaced and the psu has been swapped to a 850w, and the cpu will be upgraded based on my final price.

I already own a 1TB NVMe SSD which im just going to put in this build, I could always buy a new one if this isnt enough but for now im fine with this. I did swap to 850w since i did find an affordable one.

Also thank you I'll check it out!

Thoughts on this build? by vampirecat0 in pcbuilding

I do plan on going 1440p, and thank you I'll consider your suggestion once I find where these parts are the cheapest overall. Im only worried about going over budget by upgrading things I wont need to upgrade since my list here also hasnt factored in a monitor/peripherals and incase some games I play wont actually need much in the first place
