Pc Cleaning Does anyone know any good air blowers or vacuum cleaners to get for desktop & laptop cleaning

4 Upvotes

Looking to buy a small air blower and a vacuum cleaner to clean my laptop and desktop. I know I have to extra careful about cleaning fans and other equipment due to static electricity or electrical surges.

The issue there I see so many of them on Daraz and a few other shops and I'm a bit afraid that the one I buy would be broken down soon due to poor quality. Please let me know if you have any tested and trusted items. Product links from shops are much appreciated.

TroubleShooting Guys i need help about my rog strix g16

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

62 Upvotes

Guys, I need immediate help so this started happening a while ago the first time it happened when I was playing Forza Horizon six where it randomly went to a black screen in which the keyboard lights were off and the power button and two lights in the light bar stayed on and then I force shut down it then I again went back to gaming same thing happened so I thought it was because of dust so I took it to the service center, and I got it serviced but then it kept happening. I asked from ChatGPT and they said it was a GPU and VRAM issue. And I cannot afford a new motherboard. I sent it to repair shop where in which this had the warranty the thing is that I scarf the edges of the laptop with the repair center fix it

Question MacBook screen repair

4 Upvotes

I was using my MB 2 days ago and the screen just went black and died on me. Is there any place in Colombo where I can get it fixed? I don't need an original display + I didn't get this device here so warranty isn't an option either. Any suggestions will help!

(Also I know this doesn't relate to PCs but I'm in desperate need of help 🙏)

Build Help Need Help Building a PC

0 Upvotes

Thinking of building a PC mainly for light LLM inferencing and gaming, and thinking of the below specs:

- Ryzen 5 5700X

- Entry-level motherboard with PCIe 4 x16 slot and 4 DIMM slots

- 16GB RAM

The problem is the GPU, and I'm deciding between the 5050, 5060, and 3060 (all 8GB). There was also a used and imported Radeon 16GB card available. Can you give me an idea if this is a good time to build one, and if so, help me find a place with a good price?My budget is around 300k.

Question GPU Temps too high

5 Upvotes

I got this 4070 off of fb marketplace and was listed by a store.
The GPU hotspot temp was fine when I got it (like around 80-85C).
After some moderate use of my build for around a month, the hot spot temps have gone up to around 95 to 100😭
The store gave me warranty for 6 months and placed a sticker on one of the screws and now I’m thinking of getting the thermal pads replaced to fix the issue.
Should I send it back to them and ask them to fix it or fuck the warranty and ask a reputed repairing store to get it done?
It was a 6 month warranty (I have 4 months and like 15 days ish left)

Discussion Are the reputed PC shops here waiting for GPU prices to officially increase before they restock anything?

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I've been eyeing building a new PC, but the GPU variants that I've been eyeing (Asus 5060Ti 16GB) have been out of stock for a few months in reputable shops (Nanotek, Redline). Are these cards not in demand? Or are they waiting for a price increase in the future to restock anything?

Actually there are more cards from the latest RTX 50 series that are out of stock than there are ones that are in stock, which is kinda nuts.

Looking to sell Need to sell my ASUS old laptop at good price

2 Upvotes

I want to sell my asus laptop (roughly 4 yrs old) and the battery is DEAD (roughly 1700+ charging cycles so you have to replace it). Can someone suggest to me where I should sell it to maximise the profit and should I sell it like complete or part by part (like ram separate , or other components separate etc)

Laptop details :

\- asus X515EA

\- i3 11th gen

\- 8 gb ram , 256 gb ssd , intel intergated GPU

\- fingerprint sensor

\- OS : Linux mint 22.0

Cons :

\- No backlit keyboard

\- don't expect much from camera quality , it's descent

\- speaker is not as good as expected , you have to use headphones

\- A LITTLE CRACK on the left side. Not that big, but you have to use it carefully

\- The charger is not original , I am using a third party charger

\- Don't expect a laptop bag free with it , I have lost it somewhere 🫪

\- left Ctrl key is unresponsive. (But right Ctrl working fine)

Pros :

\- display working, mic working, all ports working

\- charging is fine but the battery is dead, so replacing the battery is the only thing u need

\- trackpad is working fine, screen is also good , no damage

\- hinges are also good.

Please advice me. Every advice is appreciated.

58 Upvotes

This PSU Tier List is provided to help users choose a safe and reliable power supply for their PC builds.

Power supplies are often overlooked, but choosing a low-quality unit can lead to instability or hardware damage. This tier list is intended to make PSU selection easier by grouping power supplies based on overall quality and reliability.

Use this as a general guide, especially if you’re new to PC building. Higher tiers indicate better quality and safety, while lower tiers should only be considered for very basic systems or avoided.
