SSD listed as Hdd and runs at at 100%

The system sound was the initial thought, but thankfully it came to me and create some more for you plebs.

Can you quantify GPU/CPU performance easily?

Whenever I’ve attempted to upgrade my CPU or GPU or when I’ve started a build from scratch, those 2 choices have always seemed too nuanced. “Oh the MHz of your CPU matters more!” “No, it’s the GHz!” “Well, AMD’s 6800xt will support FSR3!” “No, you should ball out and go with a 4080 and get some RTX! The fidelity is worth it!” Other choices for computer components seem much more straightforward. RAM: “just grab whatever speed you want from a reputable brand, you’ll be fine” Case: “If it looks good, buy it” Mobo: “Do you want these cool, and more importantly, straightforward features for an extra $100?” PSU: “Just like the ram, but make sure it has enough juice” Can you __easily__ quantify how much resources (MHz, GHz, vram) afford you when upgrading outside of just being “better”? I understand benchmarks are a thing, but are there objective percentage increases in performance for certain features? Thanks.

Monitor problems

My monitor on the left has been like this for a while now, sometimes part of the screen clears but then I goes right back, is there anyway to fix it

Pc won't enter boot menu or start up, just stuck on this screen

Working on my buddy's new system and after a long build process we're just stuck on here. I have a bootable flash drive plugged in and it won't come of this screen

First PC build since 2002. Wish me luck.

I haven’t built a PC since my sophomore year of high school. Finally have the time and money to get back into it. This will be my first build in 20yrs….

It’s time!

I've just completed a list of parts for my new PC setup + the monitor. I don't know much about PC building and I would really appreciate some help with deciding what I should change and why. I'll be using that primarily for gaming. My budget is about 1500$ (more or less since I'm not from the US).

Computer won't boot I made an oopsie daisy

My computer randomly started showing the ram lights on my motherboard and I can't get a video output. This happened before with my graphics card for a month but then it fixed itself. I don't know what to do

I tested the integrity of the cat6 cable with my teeth
