    I made a much more lenient fan curve in MSI afterburner and now the noise from the fans when they turn on is barely noticeable :)

    Solved GPU fans cycling on and off noise

    I have an issue with my GPU where the fans are cycling between on and off. I'm quite certain the reason for this is simply because the GPU turns fans off under light load while cooling isn't necessary. However, even when idling the temps rise slowly and eventually, at 60C the fans turn on for...

    Solved Huge CPU performance drop after CPU overclock

    I ended up reinstalling my OS entirely which has fixed the problem. Not quite sure what the issue was but at least I'm just glad I don't have to replace hardware. My best guess is something went wrong with some software when trying to overclock back and fourth with both software and in bios...

    Solved Huge CPU performance drop after CPU overclock

    I overclocked my Ryzen 5 1600 and looking at benchmarks it looked like it was nice performance boost but once I tried to actually play a game I got unplayable framerates. 5-10fps in cyberpunk 2077 which at default settings was a pretty stable 60fps at the same settings. I thought it might be...
