  1. Upgrading pc


    So my current GPU an rtx2070 is dying on me and im aming for a 4070 super. I then saw i need new PSU and then i might aswell get a new MOBO and im now kinda replacing everything + getting a new NVME SSD. Im also upgrading everything so i can upgrade to WIN 11my question is can I use my current win 10 license when I have kinda replaced my whole PC.https://pcpartpicker.com/list/#compatibility_notesParts im going to get.

  2. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

  4. Upgrading pc

    Cheap Photo box that will get the job done

    WEll i took on this project for PP hes a hardware reviewer and wants to get the professional looking pics for the Pc parts

    Materials:
    • Big cardboard box
    • a razor
    • white material 3 yards
    • cone lights
    • stapler
    • medical tape
    • pvc pipe about 6 inches longer than your box
    • white paint any cheap finger paint would work
