This weekend, one of the original PC journalists and enthusiasts passed away.

Gordon Mah Ung was a legendary man, for many reasons, the most important of which was how great of a human being he was. If you were lucky enough to meet him you know that he always had a smile on his face, a story to tell, and an immense amount of tips, tricks and suggestions for any and every difficulty or question you may have had that was about PCs, technology, or even life in general.

He was one of the very first PC centered journalists and gurus and he was seen as one of the lighthouses of the industry for anyone who engaged in it.

On a personal note, I've had the honor to meet and engage with him many times at events, even had the honor to appear in videos alongside the man himself, and he never failed in showing that kindness, strong but well-centered opinions, technical knowledge, and humor could all be present in the same person, and that person was indeed him.

Gordon was PCMR to the core. He loved PCs, he loved the PC community, and he loved all initiatives that had a goal to bring it together to share the love that he also shared for PCs.

Rest in peace, Gordon Mah Ung, you will be sorely missed.

Gordon’s family has launched a GoFundMe to help cover medical expenses. Please consider donating or sharing, if you can:

Wow just wow. Been excited for this Gpu for a long long time. My parents very generously got me it for Christmas and this is the state it came in. Absolutely demolished and now I’ll have to wait god knows how long for a replacement. Unacceptable business practice from Amazon here, absolutely disgusting and disgraceful. F*** you Amazon. How do you let this ship ?????? Christmas lowkey ruined now.

Story My son won't be waiting for 2025 either -first build for him

Post image
109 Upvotes

My son just turned 16 and lives with his mother since he is 3 yrs old.

I don't get to see him that much (mostly because of his extracurriculars and stuff teenagers do) but we managed to have a real strong relationship. Mostly because I identify as gamer dad. I started out in the early 90's building PCs as a kid back then -nostalgia kicks in

So it's not a sad story here and today we're gonna build his first PC -Christmas gift from me to him, after him having a Laptop for some years now. The Laptop has a mobile GTX 980 and it's an Asus Tuf.

This build was planned with some upgrading capabilities (CPU mostly) so he can start getting into it, learn about building, why something might need upgrading, bang for the buck, $ / fps etc.

It's gonna be used for 1080p gaming.

Happy Gaming and building to all of those who do. And Merry Christmas 🎄

Tech Support My PC shuts down when gaming.

1.1k Upvotes

I have my pc for about a year now without any problems. Recently it just shuts down without any signs. Screens go black pc goes full off.

When i turn it off and on with the power button on the power supply it starts just fine, like nothing happend. And i can use the pc without any issue until it gets an other stroke.

It mostly happend when gaming after 30min to 1 hour. I got it crashing on Cyberpunk 2077, Black ops 6, Titanfall 2 and more. Watch youtube or other stufs works fine.

I got a video of it happening playing Borderlands 3 on ultra graphics setting. When i play on lower settings it also happend but not as fast. The pc started just fine but phone storage was full so video cut short.

All drivers, software and bios are up to date and i did a clean instal of windows 11.

Any idee what could be the problem or what i can do to troubleshoot? Pc specs are below.

AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D GeForce RTX 4070 EAGLE Kingston FURY Beast DDR5 DIMM EXPO 6000MHz 16GB x2 Corsair RM1000X Shift 80+ GOLD MSI MPG B650 CARBON WIFI Samsung 980 Pro M.2 SSD 2TB
