    PCSPECIALIST Dumb question about returns label

    Hello. I have a bit of a daft question regarding the returns process. I think I have a faulty component in my PC and spoke to PCSpecialist who recommended I RMA the PC for them to have a look. I no longer have the original packaging for my PC and they sent out a new box which I received today...

    PCSPECIALIST Loud humming coming from AIO pump (Corsair iCUE H150i Elite RGB)

    Hi there. For a while now, after doing some work to my computer, my AIO pump has been making a very loud humming noise. I have a Corsair H150i Elite RGB with the radiator mounted on top. I think it may either be coil whine or a trapped air bubble but I'm not sure how to get rid of it as I've...

    PCSPECIALIST Looking for advice on new case fans and controller for cooler

    Ah cool, thanks! I'll have a looksie. I'm not too sure yet if I'll stick with Corsair or not, if my AIO pump is compatible with a Commander Core then I'd definitely consider it. Open to other brands though if not possible. I personally use FanControl myself and it's great! I think there's a...

    PCSPECIALIST Looking for advice on new case fans and controller for cooler

    Ah sorry forgot to mention my front case fans are connected to CHA_FAN2. The default BIOS fan curves are very aggressive and run the fans much faster than they do on idle with my custom curves. The slightest bit of activity caused them to rev up and down. Now they're a lot quieter and the sound...

    PCSPECIALIST Looking for advice on new case fans and controller for cooler

    Hi there. I'm looking for some advice on new case fans for my PC and how I could connect the controller to my existing CPU cooler. I've had my PC since November 2022 and so far everything's been great. One thing I've noticed though is the noise coming from the front and back case fans. I have a...

    Hi there. I've been having strange display issues while using Display Port. In game, I've been experiencing strange flickering or flashing where the picture seems to rapidly change between the normal colour and a blueish shade. It's more prevalent in dark areas or when the game is loading. I...

However, I'm a bit stumped on how to...

    PCSPECIALIST GPU fans spinning up on idle with DisplayPort and temps fluctuating on idle with HDMI

    Managed to undervolt my GPU down to 875 mV from 950 mV with no noticeable performance issues. 1920 MHz was my maximum clock so I used 1900 MHz as my y-axis target. Dunno if that's still too high. I had one freeze on Heaven at 850 mV and crashes at 850 mV to the point where I couldn't even run...

    PCSPECIALIST GPU fans spinning up on idle with DisplayPort and temps fluctuating on idle with HDMI

    Reinstalled my drivers using DDU and switched back over to DisplayPort. Used the other port this time but looks like it's more or less the same. My GPU was hitting the high 50s on idle. I've switched back to HDMI for now. Thanks, I'll have a look. Hopefully it is just a case of undervolting...

    PCSPECIALIST GPU fans spinning up on idle with DisplayPort and temps fluctuating on idle with HDMI

    Yeh, was planning on using FanControl for my case fans and Afterburner for the GPU fans. I installed Thunder Master just out of curiosity but the only fan software I'm running in the background is FanControl. Thanks, I'll try that. It thankfully doesn't hit 60 degrees too often but seem to idle...

    PCSPECIALIST GPU fans spinning up on idle with DisplayPort and temps fluctuating on idle with HDMI

    Hi there. Had my new PC for about a month now and feel like I'm almost there with most things, but having problems with the temperature of my GPU. It's not overheating or anything and at maximum seems to only reach just above 60 degrees C on idle but it is fluctuating. It seems to get warmer...

    PCSPECIALIST Torn between the Samsung Odyssey G5 and G7

    Sweet. I went with the 27" version instead though, due to desk space the 32" may be slightly too big for me.

    PCSPECIALIST Torn between the Samsung Odyssey G5 and G7

    Hi there. Recently bought a new PC and a Samsung Odyssey G5 to go with. Although I loved the picture, I unfortunately had to return it because it had dead pixels. I was only offered a refund as opposed to a full replacement which has given me the opportunity to consider another monitor. I have...
