Bloodrunner

Hi All, I'm sure there are a number of you that have more PC knowledge in your nose picking finger than I have in my whole body so here goes! I was told a RTX 3060 GPU would work but having installed it I just get a blank screen. It fires up and lights up but thats about it, I've tried it in another PC and it works in that, slightly better specs than mine but not much. Any ideas, failing having to buy a new PC i could try upgrading my card to one that would work, I think mine is beginning to fail. Many thanks in advance My PC windows 10 MB Manufacturer Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd.

Well, can't believe it was over 2 years ago I 1st posted here, seem like a couple of weeks! Apologies all. Belated thanks for your welcome messages, nothing much has changed, I still seem to play to improve everyone else's stats but I do seem to be getting a bit better. Hope to see you all out there a bit more often

@BlackRose what a great topic, it's really good to hear about gamers "real" worlds. Thanks for sharing @Intruder interesting read.

Bloodrunner here, took my name as in my spare time I volunteer and deliver emergency blood to hospitals overnight by motorcycle here in London UK. Most of you know me as stabbing practice, I'm usually on the MWDM server where I use the pop pop with a bent barrel, affectionally nicknamed "useless". Don't spend enough time online, well that's my excuse for being so cr*p see you all out there
