Wraith Prism and ASUS AURA? I've been going nuts for a long time I though the Wraith Prism cooler ring LEDs and AMD logo couldn't be controlled. But turns out yes, they can if you disconnect the RGB header and use only the USB cable. But the problem is that now I have two separate programs to control the RGB lighting the CoolerMaster software for the Wraith Prism, and the AURA Sync for the motherboard RGB header. Is there a program that can control both? I just want a single "kill switch" for all the RGB stuff, to turn all off with a single click I like to sleep at night EDIT The question may sound a little stupid because I forgot a little piece of information If you connect the RGB header, the LED ring and AMD logo of the Wraith Prism are always on. It allows you to control the fan blade colors only, but the other lights stay on.

How to make sure my components are working properly? Hey guys, so I recently upgraded my RAM got a 3080 and wanted to figure out how I can test them? I don t feel like I m getting enough of a FPS boost from slotting in my 3080 ( upgraded from a 1070) as some games still won t hit 144 frames. Could this be because I m using a 600 watt PSU? Or is it my i5 8600k bottle necking the GPU? The GPU is consistently rating like bottom 10 of all 3080s on userbenchmark, but another post told me that userbenchmark scores should never be trusted. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Any risks to timing tightening? Hello I just installed a pair of GSkill 3600MHz 14 15 15 35 kits ( and I am interested in further enhancing their performance through timing tightening with this Ryzen DRAM Calculator by 1usmus. Before I proceed, what are the chances of any damages to the modules from tightening the timings? I don't plan to fiddle with voltage in any way. Just timing adjustment. Thanks.

Help me pick a 1440p monitor So have been gaming on a 1080p monitor for the last 12 years. With my AMD 6800 and my impending 5600x upgrade, this may be the perfect time for me to upgrade my monitor. My current two choices are Both of these choices look compelling purely from the numbers side of things. But am I missing some other consideration? Why is one worht 90 more than the other?

If I get RMA from Gigabyte for faulty board, can I just request refund rom newegg instead of shipping board? I've dealt with Gigabytes RMA process before and needless to say I've no desire to do it again. I'm still in the return window from Newegg. If I get the RMA from gigabyte, can I just return the motherboard to them and order a new one? That way I'm not waiting for months for Gigabyte to repair. Thanks!

How important are case fans? Hi all, The case I am getting for my PC does not include any fans and I have just enough money for all the other parts so buying case fans are not an option at the moment. Are there other ways of keeping the PC cool? can I set the CPU amp GPU fans to run at higher speeds? Could I even limit the performance of my CPU GPU to keep them at a lower operating temperature?

ASUS TUF X570 Plus Dual M2 I have this motherboard with 1 M2 drive installed. Was talking with a buddy tonight and he said some mobos can dual M2. Reading how the mobo is advertised it says it can support dual M2 but from pictures I can't see where the second would go. Does anyone have any experience? Couldn't see anything in the manual.

PC Crashing Under Heavy Load My PC crashes seldomly when running heavy games, such as GTA V. It crashes more consistently, typically after 10 minutes or so, when I am running Prime95 and Heaven Benchmark simultaneously, which test for maximum power consumption. The setup is Ryzen 5 1600 at 3.2 GHz (overclocked to 4.0 GHz), EVGA GeForce GTX 1660, MSI B450 Tomahawk, and EKWB AIO for cooling. The computer continues to crash even when the CPU is restored to stock speeds. Graphics are not overclocked. No debugging light was lit when the computer crashed. The computer always restarts automatically after crashing. I am suspecting that I have a faulty PSU or other power related issues. I don't have a spare PSU. How can I troubleshoot?

I paid for 3000 mhz ram, and im gonna use the whole 3000 mhz ram So i have a ryzen 5 3600, b450m steel legend, and what i wanted to talk about, 2x8gb ram ddr4 3000 mhz But im looking at the bios rn and it says its running only at 2666. Wth?

Really feeling like a want to start fresh and not make the mistakes I made with my current build. Comments and suggestions welcome. I spent 1 2 an hour creating this list as a fresh start, knowing a lot more than when I built my current PC set up about 6 months ago, listed here (that's not my mouse but just a stand in) amp x200B You can see in my current setup is very inconsistent. I have a 3600 with a B450, but a 3070 which can't use all the PCI E Gen 4 of the B550 X570 chipset. I also only have 3200 RAM speed, which could be bringing my performance down a little. I want to move up to 1440p, and the 3070 has a hard time getting to 144fps at 1080 let alone 1440, so I put in the 3080 which is as big of an upgrade from my 5700XT to the 3070 as the 3070 is to the 3080. This also gives me some room to crank up settings in VR which I frequently use (Valve Index 144hz). I jumped up to 8 cores to ensure my Zoom meetings don't crash my computer (I may be wrong on that) and went with an NVME drive to make booting up and loading a lot easier (it is remarkably slow with my SATA M.2 SSD now). I shrunk down to mATX because I have a really small desk and my current full ATX tower is at the side of my chair on a carpet due to its height being too high to fit under my desk. amp x200B Since my current setup is about 1650, a "3070 fee" and build fee would make it a semi reasonable 2000 to sell on Craigslist (most likely). That means it is essentially a 350 upgrade including a wireless mouse and mechanical keyboard, and no RGB. My mouse and keyboard are on an RGB cycle (unsynced) and my GPU and MoBo heat shroud a very blue white. Any build suggestions would be fantastic.

Suffering huge performance problems recently with RTX 2080 Super Hello, I've recently been suffering huge performance problems with games that my computer used to have no problem running, but only in specific places. Such as CSGO matchmaking running at bad FPS (like 80), but playing against bots runs at a more expected framerate (200 ). Here is a link to my CPU Z validator Does anyone have any insight as to what the problem might be? I was noticing some things like the GPU line says " NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER (TU104 450) 300 MHz" and 300 MHz seems quite low but I don't know why or how I might fix that. Computer was running fine a few months ago and nothing has really changed since, except that I moved house. So my only thought is something has potentially come loose but not so badly that the computer no longer works. I also just ran userbench mark

how do I check if the RAM is compatible with my pc? Last year I bought a gaming laptop, back then I didn't use a lot of ram with Minecraft, but I recently playing a lot of rust and ram is being a big bottle neck. I want to upgrade, and saw my motherboard has an extra slot for ram I currently have 8gb of ram and want to add a 16gb stick, I found a sketchy website (there u go ( an advert with the ram I need. I look up the same name of ram on newegg ( here but the image isn't the same and I don't want to take the wrong one. I have an GU502DU motherboard. I'm dyslectic, retarded and not a native English speaker, please feel free to correct me on my grammar.

I plugged into my pc an sd reader and since then it hasn't worked properly Hello everyone, a few days ago I plugged into my Windows 10 computer an SD reader via usb 3.0 that was specifically made for Windows 8 (I didn't know this at the time), my computer started having problems booting, and it went black screen a couple of times but I managed to fixed that in the boot manager (I ordered my boot priorities correctly Windows 1st, SSD 2nd), however since then a red light in my pc has been blinking, and sometimes it takes my pc longer to find files, however the most important thing is that I can't play consistently any game because they keep crashing, I already reinstalled windows (but i kept all my files), I also ran like 4 different command prompts commands and nothing works. Please, can anyone help me? Thank you. I'll also say that I had 2 gpu drivers installed at the same time but I corrected this and it's still crashing.

All this memory available. Hi. So is Sata SSD still a good thing to get? I mean if there is m.2 now and the price difference is not huge why would I go for ssd drive? I mainly do motion graphics so I assume Windows must go on m.2 (and alAdobe apps as well on the same drive right?), all my asset libraries (pics, footage, textures, etc) can on good old harddrive by WD or Seagate. Also apps I use create a lot of cache files. Where should I store these file and how for better performance? Thx.

PC randomly shut off and won't turn on. I was playing DOOM Eternal, when my monitor suddenly shut off. My GPU light is still on, and my keyboard is still has its lights on. Is this a PSU issue or? I've tried unplugging it, turning the PSU on and off, and it doesn't help. Any tips appreciated!!

Upgrading from 120mm AIO to 240mm? Been thinking of possibly upgrading my AIO setup from Crosair h80i V2 to a 240mm AIO setup. Recently I've been keeping an eye for Cooler Master Masterliquid 240 Lite, since it seems to have a good performance for the price it goes for. However, I've been wondering if upgrading from 120mm to 240mm makes that big of a difference in the long run? I've been running i5 8600k with 4,6gHz overclocks for now. The temperature on HWMonitor for CPU goes arpund 70 C under load. On iCue it says the temperature for the radiator(?) Goes around 40 C under load.

16GB gt 32GB RAM Upgrade Questions Hi all, amp x200B So I recently purchased another 2x8 'Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB' (model CMW16GX4M2C3000C15) RAM kit (identical to my existing 2x8 GB kit), and wanted to ask a couple questions about compatibility and running 4 DIMMS on a Ryzen system compared to my old 2 DIMMS. amp x200B I installed the new kit last night, bringing my total capacity to 32 GB. I purchased this kit last week, so it was fairly recent. I installed it alongside my existing RAM (which was installed in slots A2 B2), and was able to boot up, using the XMP profile, with no issues. Keep in mind both sets are identical (with the exception of something I will bring up in a sec), and I made sure to check that the XMP profiles on each set were identical. I played a bit of Tarkov, if anyone knows what that is, and noticed a slight improvement over my previous performance Congrats!!... or so I thought. amp x200B I got on my PC earlier today, having made no changes since last night, to play Tarkov with my friends group, and as soon as I started watching the video streams on Discord (we typically all screen share when playing), I started experiencing immediate extreme network lag almost nothing was loading (mouse, keyboard, display all functioning properly at the time), which I was able to solve with a simple reboot. Following this, we go to load into raid, and at this point I once again have all the streams open, and as soon as we start loading into the game, I bluescreen (page fault in non paged area). Between last night when I first installed the new RAM, and this afternoon when I first blue screened, the RAM was running on the XMP profile (3000Mhz 15 17 17 35). My best guess is that due to the additional load from the Discord streams, my PC bluescreened while attempting to load Tarkov, and proceeded to fluctuate in and out of functionality. After the next reboot, it would turn on, but I was unable to get an output on the display. amp x200B After a lot of fiddling around and troubleshooting, I am back up and running, but without the XMP profile this time, and with a stock BIOS. I had to clear CMOS twice, and unplug my main monitor before I could get any output on the display (still no output on main monitor even after being plugged back in multiple times). Now that I'm able to use my computer, I popped open Thaiphoon Burner, and was able to check my RAM for differences. I've noticed a couple differences, which I'm assuming is due to the length of time in between when I purchased each set, but I don't exactly know what to do with this information. From what I can tell, they have different manufacturers, different die composition (D die vs. A die), etc. I have attached screenshots from each set to illustrate the differences amp x200B amp x200B System Info MOBO MSI B450 Tomahawk CPU Ryzen 5 3600 GPU MSI 2070 OS Drive Sabrent Rocket Q 1TB amp x200B RAM Info VENGEANCE RGB PRO 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz C15 Model CMW16GX4M2C3000C15 XMP Profile 3000Mhz at 15 17 17 35 amp x200B My main question is this Is there going to be any type of compatibility issue between these two kits of RAM, even though they are the same model, due to the various differences between the two kits, especially the die differences? amp x200B P.S. Apologies for the wall of text, and thank you in advance for any help. I wanted to provide as much information as possible in order to help troubleshoot. For now, I'm going to do a fresh installation of Windows and pick back up on working on the XMP profile after, but I wanted to check and see if anyone had any prior knowledge regarding the different RAM factors.

Kernel Power 41 Error Pls Help So I have been having this issue for 1 2 weeks now and its driving me insane. When I play games on my PC, Sometimes the screen goes black and I hear the usb disconnect alert. I can also still hear the game running in the background. Then after a few seconds, everything is back to normal, but my rgb software shuts off and everything. So I looked into it at event viewer and found this. Tried some fixes online but none of them seem to work. In some rare cases the pc will BSOD. Any help would be appreciated. Edit Added the detail section of the error

I just got a new gpu, how do I replace it? Hey, I just got a new gpu and I was wondering if I just remove my old one and plug in the new one? Do I need to do anything else? What are the things that I should be careful of? I am a beginner please forgive me if its a stupid question.

anyone know what the cause of this is About 2 weeks ago my pc just started stuttering out of no where, I updated all my drivers, my bios drivers and even completely reset my pc to see if that would fix the problem but it did not. I stutter in almost all my games even valorant which before I did not stutter not even once but now all of a sudden theres a stutter every time I flick or like just play in general. I also updated windows but none of those work, if anyone knows the issue please reply.

I spent all day working on it and it won't turn on. I'm frustrated and disappointed right now. Ive spent all day on my new build and it won't turn on. Ive been sifting through manuals and taking each step by step and yet nothing works. Ive tried reconnecting the psu into the mobo, the front connectors into the pins the way the manual says, and seeing if anything had been unplugged. Nothing. No fans or anything. My psu has a light that turns on when plugged so it couldn't be that, right? I would appreciate any help anyone can offer. I7 9700 Msi Z390 Gaming Edge AC 32 gb Trident Z ram 850w EVGA Gold psu I'm really hoping I didn't damage anything like the mobo. Would that part be at fault since nothing at works and it pretty much connected to everything? I'll try to respond if any more info is needed.

How much experience do you need to build a pc? My dad is skeptical about me building my first computer and he keeps saying that I need to completely dismantle our old computer and then show him the parts (which I already did while taking out the hard drive to get all the data back). Now he's saying that he needs to see all the parts (he was not there at the time of taking it apart) and with his nature, im sure he's gonna make me take a computer engineering course until im certified to build computers and I know he's gonna go overboard. Does anybody know how much experience you actually need to build a computer (keep in mind that im under 16)? I memorized every single step before and I dismantled our old computer then put it back together. I also played with lego's alot ...

CPU won't go past base clock I have a Ryzen 5800x and It will never go past its base clock (4.2 ghz) Even when running cinebench it maxes there. There is no thermal constraints at all system gets to 55 c during cinebench 4.2 is there any way to fix this? I have never messed with overclocking at all. Also in cpu z and task manager it says my cpu is always at 4.2 ghz but in ryzen master it does still down clock when idle but still only maxes at 4.2

Help a noob future proofing AM4?

Or should i stick with the 5600x and upgrade my whole rig in a few years? If you could also explain your answers I'd be glad to hear your opinions, thank you!

Scratched a capacitor around cpu socket Hi, so I pulled a stupid when installing a Noctua cpu cooler. I put one of the brackets that the actual cpu heatsink attaches to, with the peg upside down so that the threads scraped along one of the capacitors right around cpu socket area. This is a Z490. Its a fairly big scrape, the black paint is off down one side of the capacitor but not too deep a cut that I can see and capacitor isn't bent. Should I toss this board? It does post but haven't gone further. Sorry didn't get a pic of scratch but it is under cooler bracket now.

I need help with a wiring question for ARGB to Motherboard So I am building in the Lian Li PC o11 Dynamic and have ordered 2 sets of the 5 Antec Prizm Fans (planning to use 9 out of the 10) I am using the Deepcool Castle 360EX AIO water cooler as well and it has a 3 pin 5 volt connector for the ARGB. The junction box that comes with the fans allows 5 fans to be hooked up with one of the boxes which has a 3 pin 5 volt connector to go to the motherboard for ARGB. Basically One 3 pin (5v) connector for the AIO One 3 pin (5v) connector for the first 5 fans One 3 pin (5v) connector for the other 4 fans My motherboard is the MSI Z490 Gaming Carbon Wifi which has 2 of the 3 pin ARGB connectors. How can I hook up all three to ARGB when I am short a 3 pin ARGB header? If I use a splitter (recommend me one please) will there be any issues with brightness or power running to the fans off one header? Any help is greatly appreciated!

G4560 to i7 9700 do I need to reinstall windows? Hi! I currently have a G4560 machine. Gigabyte 110m h cf mobo, rtx1060 6gb, 8gb ddr3, running on windows 10. I would just like to upgrade to i7 9700.

Anything I can do to improve my PC? Hello all, I wanted to get some feedback on my PC to see if there was anything I could do to improve it. The main thing I think needs work is airflow even though my GPU isn't running hotter than 83C. The biggest downside to my build in my opinion is the case, I wasn't able to mount my AIO to the top of my case like i hoped due to the case size and now air flow is limited. I picked the case for aesthetics, and still love it, but its a pain to work in cable manage. I am waiting for another fan that I'm attaching to the top. Im planning on making the back fan an intake fan and the two on top exhaust fans. I would appreciate any feedback you guys have to offer, this was my first build (last February) that i have been able to upgrade a bit already.

Should I get a different Ryzen CPU I built my first PC over Christmas. Ryzen 7 3700x, Msi Radeon 5500XT, MSI B550 MB and 32 gb of Ram. Thing works great. Recently I had the opportunity to buy a Radeon rx 6700xt, so I did. I switched it out with the 5500 and it is amazingly fast. I plan to build my daughter a gaming computer this summer, so I will use the 5500 on that build. Since I have to buy another CPU anyway, should I keep my 3700x paired with my 6700, and just buy another one of those, or should I look for the Ryzen 7 5800x or go for the Ryzen 9 5900x to pair with my 6700. Being new to this, I m not sure if my CPU is strong enough for the 6700. I appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Odyssey G7 27 inch will turn off and on Hey guys. I wanted to get opinions or fixes on the following issue. Build AMD 5600x, MSI 3080, 16gb ram, 850w seasonic PSU, B550 tomahawk. I have an odyssey g7 as well as an acer 1440p monitor plugged into my 3080. Very rarely, My g7 will turn off and on. It is very concerning behavior but it does happen very rarely. It has never happened while gaming. For whatever reason, I feel like I have noticed it happen at least twice while opening Netflix (always via chrome). To be more exact, the most recent time it happened, I had a game open on one monitor, I have Flux on (a blue light filter app), and I opened Netflix in chrome. Anyone have any trouble shooting tips? Should I RMA?

Does anybody know a cheap way to get windows 10? I ve had my pc built for like a week now, and my setup is almost complete, but I still don t have windows. Before anyway says to just to download it on another pc or laptop onto a flash drive, I already tried, but my moms laptop doesn t even have 8gb of space left, and I ve tried to free up space, but I still can t. I tried buying an external hard drive, but windows still didn t recognize it, probably still only a c drive. Then somehow I turned my moms c drive into a dynamic disk, and now I can t turn it back to a basic disk without losing all of the data. And I thought that maybe I could use some of the storage from the external drive to the c drive, but honestly I m stumped. I don t want to go through all of this work just to get windows, so if you could help me out and find me a cheap way to get windows, preferably under like 50, I would insanely appreciate it! Honestly I m so tired of this whole situation.

The threadripper seems to only takes liquid CPU coolers? Are they difficult to install and what should I look for in a case (just threw a case in there cause no clue on it yet). Also wondering about how big the power supply has to be, I want to go to 256gb RAM and maybe cut down the graphics card some but the power supply has to be over 1000W? is this normal with that much ram? Also, should I be looking for faster RAM higher than 3600 MHz? Lastly, how important is a good motherboard? I just took this motherboard off the AMD website because they recommended it for threadripper gen 3 processors, but there are others that are half the price that can take 256gb ram (8x16gb slots) Thanks

Finnaly got my first gaming computer and I already want to upgrade parts of it, does anyone have any pointers or can push me in the right direction. It's a pre built legion pc with a 1660 super, core i5, 16 gb memory, 1.0tb HDD, 256 gb ssd. It was like 900. It plays games at okay settings and haven't tried to push it to hard yet and have been hesitant to download a lot of games. I don't want to spend a crap tone on upgrades but ik I'll have to. I was thinking to upgrade the power supply from a 400 to a 650 and by 2 more stick of ram because it has 2 extra slots I think. Maybe in the future when graphics cards come out again getting a 2080 or 3060.

First Build Advice on my shopping list Hey everyone Planning to do my first ever PC Build, and I've been doing some research over the last few days on what my component list is looking like. I want to put together a PC that will allow for good gaming performance to start with, but also provides a good upgrade path should I be looking for it in the future. Having dome some looking around, I've made a couple of decisions 1. Looking to get a decent motherboard, because it feels like having a good foundation and allows for the upgrade path I want 2. Ideally want to avoid the cost of a CPU Cooler at this stage, so opting for AMD Ryzen CPU range 3. Hoping to have 1TB storage to begin with, and SATA SSD feels like the most affordable way to do with whilst still getting the performance benefits of SSD. Can you guys give me any advice on the parts I've chosen? Any inefficiencies with parts that I've got working together?

Will 3600 ram have a significantly better performance than my old 3200? So I was checking my task manager and saw that my pc just naturally uses 50 of my ram when I m playing any games or recording ( 2 x 4gb 3200) so I decided to get and upgrade (2 x 8gb 3600). I just wanted to know if the performance will be noticeably better or will it be only a small difference?. And if the ram isn t what s making most of my games or recordings lag then could it be something else?

If it not works like that, what would be the most convenient solution? Thanks a ton in advance!!

Best ITX MB for 10900 non K with raised power limit? I have a 10900 that I'd like to use with a raised power limit. My understanding is that VRM quality comes into play if I'm doing this. (I've already got a good aftermarket cooler.) My research suggests that MSI, ASRock, and ASUS have a BIOS option on some boards that lets me raise the power limit. I'm unclear if I can do that with most boards with something like Throttlestop, which I don't know much about and haven't used. My head is kind of spinning and I could use some help in boiling down the options and making a selection. Requirements Good support for raised power limit on 10900 non K ITX No Intel 2.5G LAN problems The more connectivity, fan headers, and bells and whistles the better Not really concerned about price, though value is always good Does anyone have a recommendation?

Corsair 275R Airflow side panel won t come off Title will seem unrelated at first, but just bear with me for a minute. After lowering my motherboard onto the standoffs I realised I didn t have the accessories kit that came with the case. This is my first build, so it was stressful enough lowering it in once, now I had to take it out and lower it in again, and having moved it a couple times to get it to sit on the standoffs correctly I m worried I ve scratched something on my motherboard. Right now it s out of the case but off to the side. Question 1 How high are the chances that I damaged something by touching the back of the motherboard? Anyways, after getting the mobo out again, I encountered a new issue. In order to get to the accessories kit (as well as HDD bays and put in my PSU), I have to take the back panel off, but it won t budge. I completely loosened the 2 thumb screws and pulled as hard as i could on the latch to slide the panel off, but it won t move at all. I even tried removing the front bezel and filter, but it hasn t made a difference. As I mentioned in the title, this is a Corsair 275R Airflow case, not sure if this is a known issue I haven t heard about, or if there s something In missing, but I really don t know how to get it off.

Best option for a workhorse PC these days? I ve been waiting 10mins for this shitty intel i3 to actually start being usable, and I m just so done with bad hardware and lame laptops. What s a good option for a build now in this environment? I just need an SSD for speed and good AMD CPU and I want to stay cheap on a graphics card for now. Ideally this would be a laptop replacement, not for Starbucks but for throwing in a trunk and bringing to a friends, so smaller is better. Budget 1k if you all think it s difficult to future proof and I ll need to re buy completely in 3 years when better CPUs are out. Budget 2k if it s a sweet setup that looks future proof.

Display dying and GPU fans revving to 100 Hello, so I've been experiencing these problems for awhile now, they started probably more then a month ago. The main problem is the the picture dissapearing and then the GPU fans revv up to 100 , but the sound stays normal or the PC reboots and they differ aswell, once I got an green screen (not a full green one, but with lines and weird stuff) or grey screen with the sound glitching out (like the sound froze), picture just disappearing but the sound still going on in the background and once I just got an reboot. Noticed no artifacts while in use (gaming or general use). 2 days ago I decide to clean it so I took the fan out of the PSU and cleaned it, took the casing and fan off of the GPU (don't have paste so no change there), took the case fans out....just general dust cleaning. After I did that the problems became more common. I tested the RAM out 1 week ago, but left the PC running so I don't actually know if any errors occured during the test, GPU temps don't go above 80 85 celsius during heavy gaming (idle being from 32 lowest to 50 highest), CPU RAM and disk usage temps (temps on MOBO also seem normal, idle 25 30 celsius) are normal,...... My main sus is the GPU since I bought it used, but it could also be the PSU, but like the rest of the PC (minus GPU) it's barely 2 years old (built in Sep 2019) so wear and tear would be weird. At this point I'm afraid of even turning the PC on or trying different tests in fear of it crashing during the test in general I'm scared of doing anything with it. I'm unemployed and I can barely afford to live, so new components or extensive repair costs are out of the question. I've found one service that seems good and they offer free diagnostics so I'm willing to try that out. Any help would be appreciated, and thank you!

First time thinking about AIO, please feel free to tell me to avoid. Also I've never really paid attention to RGB before so it's not at the top of my list. I've already got approx 5 120mm case fans so they aren't needed. I've currently got this 650W PSU. Could I save 100 by keeping or is the supply running a bit too close to demand here?

Upgrading psu for Dell Optiplex 3010 MT Anyone have any good recommendations for what psu to get? I'm aiming for about 450w as it's an old system and the graphics card I would to install is only a 2gb. A gtx 750ti I believe. Although if I'm going to upgrade from a dual core to a quad core would a 500w be better?

PC will not power on normally after shutdown. (X570 Crosshair VIII Hero Wifi, Corsair AX850) Hi buildapc. After shutting my PC down from Windows 10, I can't power on again without first toggling the power supply rocker switch off and on. I have to toggle the power supply off, wait for the mobo LEDs to go off (about 3 4 seconds), and then toggle the power supply switch back on. Only then can I power on the PC again normally using the case power button. I've disabled things like Windows hibernation to no effect. The system will go to sleep 100 of the time and come out of sleep about 95 of the time. Occasionally, it seems to go from sleep to powered off completely, and then I have to go through the above power supply process again. I've also looked through the motherboard BIOS screens but don't see anything obvious. I don't experience any power related problems while the computer is actually on, playing games, etc. Asus Crosshair VIII Hero Wifi, X570, BIOS 3204 (latest version) Ryzen 5800 Corsair AX850 power supply amp x200B Also, the Chipset driver is on the latest version Version 2.11.26.106, 2021 02 02 amp x200B

Need help picking a motherboard for my build First time builder. I've picked all of my other components but I have no idea what to pick for a motherboard. I need it to have wireless networking since I don't always have access to an ethernet connection. I have a max budget of 3000 and I don't mind getting an expensive motherboard if you think it's worth the money. Feel free to comment on any other part of the build that you feel should change as it is very much a first draft. All help is appreciated. Thank you.

rate my build (ill be upgrading eventually) here is the build, will there be any issues with it all fitting together or any issues with the parts themselves?

This is my pc build could you give me tips on whats next to upgrade? cpu i5 10400 Motherboard b460 atx Ram X2 8gb ddr4 3000 mhz Gpu msi gtx 1050ti ( i know this probably needs upgrading Storage 2tb hard drive 500 gb ssd Any other specs needed ask in comments

Ssd and Hdd Storage issues So i just installed my Hdd and want to move some videos, photos, etc to this hard drive to free up space on my sdd and everywhere i look isn t really helping me anyone know how to do this? My OS is windows 10 and thanks for help in advance!

Will my 2070 S handle 1440p 144Hz? Pretty much what it says in the title. I ve been looking to get a good monitor to go with my new build for a while now, and I preferably want to get a 1440p 144hz monitor. But I m not sure my card would be able to handle it without a big performance dip. So tell it to me straight. Will my card be able to handle that while still running on relatively high settings?

Basic Budget build, upgrade of a 10 year old HP Desktop for my inlaws Build Help Ready Have you read the sidebar and rules Yes. What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better. Desktop computer replacement for my inlaws (Email, Web browsing, document scanning printing, e learning, maybe some video playing Netflix YouTube). Basically they have a 10 year old HP Pavilion Slimline s5503w that is in dire need of an upgrade. Their HDD died just recently so I put a MX500 512GB Sata SSD I had around and although Windows 10 technically runs, it isn't the most comfortable experience ). Instead of buying a brand new machine (anything decent tends to be over budget for them, over 500CAD), I am pondering the idea of swapping the Motherboard, CPU and RAM for something more recent that can last them another good 5 10 years. Current Mobo is micro ATX with a 220W TFX PSU (which may or not be compatible with a more recent Mobo). If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, framerate, game settings) Since there are no gaming requirements, I am wondering is there is a better budget option than the 3200G (i3, Pentium, Athlon?) What is your budget (ballpark is okay)? About 400 CAD for CPU Mobo RAM. Willing to wait out for available parts or fair prices. In what country are you purchasing your parts? Canada.

(Asus) Mainboard with B550 and TPM Hello all, I'm currently stuggling with the choice of mainboard, I wanted Ryzen 5 (5600x) Asus no chipset fan ... which seems to imply "no X570 chipset" if possible 2.5 G LAN if possible Wifi (ax) and (not so obviously) TPM (as my work PCs all have it built in, so I assumed falsely this is standard) Now, I stumbled over the fact that my choice "ROG STRIX B550 F Gaming (Wi Fi)" has everything except... a TPM and, as it seems, no TPM header either. Oh, snap, I was close to ordering... I checked other Asus B550 boards. Am I wrong this is true for the whole line? The X570 boards seem to have at least a connector. Am I forced to select a different brand? Or am I off the rails? Suggestions? I want a stable board and my case will have 5 fans (low RPM) CPU fan. Gigabyte B550 Vision is more expensive, has a ton of nice things going but no 2.5 G LAN. Which is probably not so important. But as Asus fanboi my Gigabyte knowledge is quite limited. I like e.g. the fan control on my old Z77 Deluxe (yeah, time for a new build).

I need help building this pc This is my build Where i live everything together is around 2k (thats my budget). I am pretty sure the motherboard is fine, but pcpartpicker still gives a warning so I want to make sure it is ok.

How exactly does a BAD PSU affects your computer? What is the clear difference between a A B C D tier psu with same wattage? Will good psu boost your pc performance? How exactly do the bad and the good ones affect ur pc? Do bad psu make ur pc slower or affect hardware longetivity or roast it? Any answer or clearer explaination would be deeply appreciate.

Which CPU is more worth it in the long run? i5 11400 or i9 10850k I made a post about which CPU to use for my upgrade and settled for intel. I mainly play Escape from tarkov which is a very CPU hungry game and I want enough CPU processing power to maybe stream or just have youtube in the background Which CPU should I choose and is there something in the middle? Also will be purchasing a new motherboard to go along with the CPU.

Any difference between the Gigabyte Geoforce RTX 2070 8GB Gaming and Gigabyte Geoforce RTX 2070 Gaming OC 8G? I always run out for the options for the first one and I don't know if they share any difference between one or the other, and the 8gb gaming is needed, but there is more of the gaming oc than 8gb gaming. Both have RTX 2070, support hdmi display port video interface, have Nvidia chip, and has a gddr6 ram type. Will this affect the set for the build or will it not matter? I just need to know just in case I'm doing this right?

First Build... I'd love some input I'm doing my first build using pcpartpicker. I'm somewhat tech savvy, but never really built a full machine before. Before I go spend a chunk, I figured I'd ask 1) What novice tips should I know about before I go about throwing parts together. 2) Is there anything in my list of parts that looks like a bad idea. 3) How do I know which case to purchase as far as size goes? amp x200B For reference, the computer will be used for office work mostly, but I will also be doing animation, illustration, and video editing on a semi regular basis. amp x200B Here is my parts list amp x200B Any help is SUPER appreciated!

Will my motherboard BIOS need an update before using my CPU Purchased a new MoBo and CPU for my computer a little while ago, and haven't had the chance to install until now, but I've heard about issues with the motherboard not being compatible with certain CPU's until after a BIOS update. My board and processor are below, would anyone be able to find out if that will be the case with my parts? I'm wondering if I need to get a cheap CPU to do the update, then switch in my new one.

Question about screws and accessories I must have lost the box of accessories that came with my case because I don t have the required screws for my motherboard and hard drive.

HP omen getting low fps every 30 seconds or so when heating up. So i got this omen 3 years ago and it's been working great. although it's always got pretty hot when gaming (around 91 C) other than that no issues whatsoever, but lately when I'm gaming, sometimes every 20, 30 or 1 min, I get a few seconds where everything goes slow and stuttery with really low fps, and then it goes away. at first I thought it could be another program running, like adobe updater or epic game but even after closing them (and any other thing that is using too much cpu) I still get it. So maybe it's related to the heating? I'm not sure but I think it makes sense since it only happens when it reached those temperatures what do you think?

Motherboard still running despite smoke coming out of VRM! What is going on here? X399 Designare Ex motherboard which while setting did not boot up and I observed Smoke came out from the sides of the top VRM cooler. I turned off the SMPS and took out the Mobo and set it up without the case and everything still runs fine. I tried running heavy workloads and benchmarks and still there are no visible issues reboots lockups, albeit my Cinebench R23 gives lower scores for 2990WX than what its supposed to be. What could be going on here?

Is it worth upgrading my Laptop? Hello everyone. Laptops are really expensive where I live, price almost doubled from 2019 to 2020 and it doesn't go down. Here is my configurations Acer E5 574 Intel Core i3 6100U, 2,30 GHz with Intel Graphics 520 as stock video board 4GB DDR3 RAM 1 TB HD I mostly used this laptop to work (since I work from home) and to browse on the internet, Spotify, nothing that demands so much from it but my girlfriend made me play League of Legends with her and now I'm kinda addicted to it too lol. Unfortunately the game doesn't run quite properly, 50 60 FPS with poor graphics settings. Do you guys think that if I add extra 4GB (or 8GB, I don't know if it worths) and an SSD it will boost my PC in this case? I know that overall it will help. If not, what do you guys recommend? A video board or something? I really wish I could grab a new PC but today it doesn't worth ( Thank you everyone!
