I was curious about a short as well, but where do you think this could be occurring? It had crossed my mind, because it worked fine on my bench before screwing it down into the slot. There is a wireless module that sits underneath it, but then I thought moving it to the adapter would get around...
I'm building a gaming PC for a friend using mostly surplus parts with a new case and power supply. The OS drive is a M.2 sata ssd that appeared to be new in packaging. I had the system on a bench for testing, installed Windows 10 from a flash drive and everything was great. However, after I...
Currently have a SSD over SATA as my OS/programs drive. From what I've seen looking at benchmarks, it doesn't look like I would see too much of an increase upgrading to a faster NVME drive in real-world scenarios. I'm curious what other people's experiences are making the jump from SATA to NVME.
I'm looking to pair the SuperNOVA G3 550 with an i5-9600K and Gigabyte - Z390 AORUS MASTER.

I had her unplug and reseat the cables, but she doesn't have a spare SATA cable to swap in. CrystalDiskInfo gives a caution for Health Status and warns about the Current Pending Sector Count, which is at 186.
My friends computer gave an unable to write to disk error while Steam was updating a game (not sure exactly what the error was). She said she had also had issues with the computer hanging lately. She lives on a different coast now, so I can't help her hands on, but I walked her through...
About a month ago, I came home after being gone for a weekend and wasn't able to get my computer to boot. Power light would come on, fans spin, no POST. My computer is attached to a UPS, so it should be protected from power fluctuations. After powering it on and off a few times, it finally...
Ok, so my friend has a metal computer case and sometimes when her cat touches it the computer resets. Her cat builds up a lot of static electricity in her apartment - I get shocked a lot when I touch it.
My guess is that the problem is the case panel with the reset switch isn't grounded and...
