Question worth upgrading?

My current specs are Ryzen 3900x, GB Aorus Master motherboard, 4x 8gb GSkill 3200mhz ram, RX 6800 gpu. The system mostly runs fine, but I don't like Gigabyte's software, specially for controlling the case fan, chipset fan becomes dusty and loud at times. I have a 5950x and an Asus Dark Hero in...

Would a $650 budget help out? I can live with 8gb ram for now and a 120gb ssd for boot.

Office work is more important. But can I be demanding and ask for 2 builds: work vs gaming? I might have my T420 directed towards office while this build could be my relaxation station. :p

My laptop has a Intel HD3000 :D It runs Civ5 on low/medium, AOE 3 on high. BF3/4, COD are obviously not playable. However, I played BF4 on an Intel HD4400.

My last custom built pc was in 2009, I have been using a laptop ever since. But now I'm going into my thesis and research...would like some gaming. I'm not a gamer, however I like to play FPS or strategy games as a stress reliever. Most of the time I'm using my laptop at home, connected to a...

I tried two different psu's and it's all the same. I also took out the battery for an hour, but still didn't make a difference. The green led of the mb turns on, so there must be electricity running thru the board, correct?

Nothing on the screen, and I also cleared CMOS and took out the battery, nothing. It's not in a case and not connected to a monitor, btw. But before that, it was connected to a screen and nothing came on.

reviving my old pc

I have an old Asus P5GD1 laying around and wanted to try it out and see if it works. I have a P4 installed with a pci-e card. I put all these together on the table and turn it on. The board is receiving juice from the psu (hence the green led) and the fans are running, but I hear nothing. Aren't...
