    PCSPECIALIST advice on protecting a desktop pc during and after power outages

    You can’t protect it without protective devices. So whenever you turn on the switch, or if lightening ever hits the line, your pc has zero protection against surges. Nothing you can do until you get some equipment

    PCSPECIALIST advice on protecting a desktop pc during and after power outages

    Without a surge protector, you MUST keep it powered off and disconnected from the mains during a storm. A surge protector is absolutely basic protection for a PC, IMHO you shouldn't be running one at all without one.

    PCSPECIALIST Bios Help

    Yes, it's 3200MHz, but it's set at 2133MHz which is the board default. So you're missing out on substantial performance. Latest Windows version Pointless taking it to a store, and risky too, takes 2 minutes to do yourself.

    PCSPECIALIST Bios Help

    You don't want to change the SATA mode, it needs to be on AHCI, not RAID If the date and time are incorrect, it could be your CMOS battery is running flat But if 24H2 has just installed, there have been a host of issues related to outdated BIOS, and yours is very old, I would update to the...

    PCSPECIALIST Researching and saving for new pc by end of this year.

    Be careful of this also, there is no such thing as "full graphics" in PC gaming, you optimise settings to get best performance vs quality, this is especially important now that all developers have stuck their fingers up to nvidias draconian limitations, and a lot of modern titles will barely...

    PCSPECIALIST R.I.P. David Lynch

    I’ve only just found out how he died, due to lung cancer. In case I came across mighty cold, I had no idea he was ill, what I meant by my comment is that he achieved so much in his life’s work, his legacy is too great to feel saddened by his loss. I am sorry he didn’t go naturally, just hope...

    PCSPECIALIST Wilson is back with itchy fingers

    It’s a good choice, I would take the more full fledged aptitude of that monitor over the Dell personally, for web browsing for instance with text it will be far easier to read. OLEDs are so damn good generally for gaming anyway. That’s going to be a dream monitor

    PCSPECIALIST Slimline laptop charger/adapter for a Clevo P775TM1-G?

    The OP wasn't talking about the port, they were talking about the charger brick, very different thing. You can’t just fit a port you like, the port has to match the power rating of the charger and the power supply it’s feeding on the board. If you fit a port designed for lower power inputs, all...
