Truthfully those RCA cables are a bit outdated, and most TV's use HDMI nowadays. If it's an older model, the yellow is your video signal, and the red and white are for stereo audio. I am colorblind personally, and had a hard time growing up telling between the red and yellow cord. You won't mess...

What OS are you on? If windows 7 or higher, go to power management and select advanced options. Scroll down to choose what the computer does when lid is closed, and select shut down.

Just extract it with something like 7zip or winzip, and run the program from there. I don't know your hardware info, but use "RealTemp.exe" for 4 cpu cores or less, and use the "RealTempGT.exe" for 6 cores and up.

I use msi afterburner for nvidia 1070, and am very happy with it :)

If you have an intel cpu, use this https://www.techpowerup.com/realtemp/ And for your GPU use this https://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/

To be honest the only reason I said that was because I play ARMA, and there is definetly a substantial FPS drop with more players in the server. I agree that it seems weird, but it's very true, at least for ARMA. You definitely want to check both your CPU and GPU temps tho..there is a lot of...

with online games, there are a lot of variables at work that can affect your fps. The amount of players on a server, the latency of the server etc. With that being said, to make sure there isn't something wrong with your hardware, would you post your temperatures for your CPU and GPU...

I use Asus VG248QE . The colors aren't amazing, and it's about 100 dollars over your budget. I don't know of any 144HZ monitors that retail around 150. You may have better luck with craigslist or ebay (used) if your budget is that strict. Just hope you don't get a screen with dead pixels...

Does the computer recognize itself being plugged in? Like does it say plugged in & charging, but just wont go over 17%? If it doesn't recognize the charger even being plugged in, that its probably a bad cable and/or power brick. Batteries and fans are usually the first things to go on a laptop...

I 2nd VLC player...not a gorgeous program but extremely effective and useful...it even does transcoding to different audio video formats. Easy to use and free.

It sounds like you broke something in your screen lol...it sucks but it happens. You should probably call a computer repair shop, or just get used to the crack and no touch screen. There isn't really a good way to fix something like that..it will be cheaper and easier to just replace

So I just received as a gift from my wife a pair of Bose Ae2 Wireless headphones. She knows I am a big PC gamer and I don't have the heart to tell her that bluetooth isn't that great for gaming in general. She saw a mic and bose headphones and went for it lol. I am trying to make them...

Nevermind...after looking closer I do not know lol

I am using bose ae2 wireless and am pretty happy with them...only complaint is there is no subwoofer or amp and for a 250 dollar pair of headphones, i would expect one.

Lol ^^ this guy
