    Question TV vs Monitor

    We’re both up to date with our version of Windows 10. Thanks for the link to the benchmark chart, that definitely makes more sense now. I have the latest drivers from Nvidia. Would you recommend using DDU every time I update? Or just if there’s an issue. Thanks for all the help!

    Question SSD Partition Numbers

    Yeah, I left the BIOS alone because my version was very recent and the new one didn't fix any issues I was experiencing. GPU from Nvidia. I used Intel Driver and Support Assistant to get everything else up to date. I just got Samsung Magician, updated and ran a full diagnostic scan and a "SMART...

    Question SSD Partition Numbers

    That's exactly the plan. I still want to upgrade a few other things but funds and PC hardware availability aren't great at the moment, so I just had one of my tech-savvy friends help me choose something for the time being.

    Question SSD Partition Numbers

    Question SSD Partition Numbers

    I recently built my first PC with a 1TB SSD and everything seems to be running fine. Upon looking at my disk management, I noticed the partition numbers that Windows made were a little odd.
