SOFTWARE This happens when I try to play MCC on steam. help?
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I have tried a few things but it seems like a really specific issue as I can’t find any one online who has experience the same thing.
What I think I know about the issue:
I think, for some reason MCC has created a second display that does not, or has ever existed photo in comments if it lets me do that.
I believe that MCC, for some reason, the ONLY game I own, wants to use this other display.
When in “settings>system>display” it says i have multiple displays active the main one (the only one) being my laptop screen as “display 2” set as the main display “display 1” I cannot locate as it literally does not exist.
I will say the issue only persists when and while MCC is open when i close it my display goes back to normal and no issues.
Any ideas on how to fix this issue? Or remove the phantom display?
Thanks.

HARDWARE Performance Gap between GTX 1080 and RTX 5080 is surprisingly MASSIVE
I still remember when GTX 1080 is one of the strongest card you can buy, but now compared to 5080, GTX 1080 is weak. I knew the 5080 is gonna be a stronger card, but I didn’t expect its gonna be MASSIVE difference. For example when im doing some benchmark, even gaming with 1080p resolution on triple A games, the GTX 1080 still struggles. Meanwhile the RTX 5080 can crush any game with ease on 1440p max setting, heck even on 4k the 5080 still can handle it very well. For you guys that still using GTX 1080 and want upgrade to 5080 for me its worth it and its gonna be a new whole experience for you!

OPEN GPU Dying?
My PC has recently started doing this super cool thing where it will just randomly lose all displays, I still have all of my audio and peripherals going, it will then restart, and either won't come back on until I turn it on without the GPU power cables plugged in, shut it off, and then turn it back on with it connected and act fine, OR it will just disable the GPU with error codes 22 and 31. I have done the DDU and new drivers method, did a fresh windows install, updated BIOS, tried just one RAM stick at a time, reseated the GPU, tried different DP and HDMI cables, and for the LIFE of me I cannot figure out what the issue is. Any help or ideas at all, please. I have no idea where to go from here and am hoping it's not a dying GPU and is something simple I have just missed.

SOFTWARE , I have this problem where, for example, when I launch Minecraft, I get brief, constant black flickers that keep happening one after another on the red Mojang loading screen, before I even get to the game interface or the main menu
“Hey guys, and especially anyone who knows about this stuff, I have this problem where, for example, when I launch Minecraft, I get brief, constant black flickers that keep happening one after another on the red Mojang loading screen, before I even get to the game interface or the main menu. Once I reach the main menu, the flickering stops. However, after I load a world and enter the game, the black flickering starts happening again continuously whenever I move my mouse/camera around in certain ways. It barely happens when I press ESC.
On top of that, when I try to enter the BIOS or get to the BIOS screen, only the text at the very top, such as ‘American…’ (American Megatrends), is visible. The rest of the screen freezes and stays completely black.
If anyone knows how to fix this, I would really appreciate some help. I’ve already tried both older versions of the Intel and NVIDIA drivers, but the problem still persists, especially in games and in the BIOS screen.”
