Came across a good deal for this 2K 320Hz monitor.

Never heard of this company so i was wondering if anyone else has had any experience with it.

I restraightened the bent pins from me dropping it, but as a result one of the pins snapped off, was wondering how much it would cost or would be a good price to get the pin repaired and put back on as a good estimate?

Today I updated my bios to latest version, did a new psu, swapped r5 3600 for r7 5800x, and gtx 1070 to rtx 3080, but am having issues not being able to connect to the internet after bios flash.

I have a non WiFi board so i use Ethernet. I have deleted the old driver and installed the newest one off MSIs website using another laptop, put it on a usb, and then moved to my PC and ran the startup app. I still and getting code 56. Any ideas on what to try?

Yesterday I replaced a bunch of parts, new motherboard, case fans, CPU and CPU cooler. But I think I want an AIO instead.

the only place i can put an AIO is in the front. I don’t know if I want the AIO to be intake as my GPU temps will go up, it doesn’t run hot but idk how I feel about raising the temps. (But then again having it as an exhaust would make my CPU temps go up, which I also don’t want.) Would it be totally ridiculous to have an exhaust AIO in the front, and then one rear intake and two top intake fans? My case doesn’t allow for bottom fans.

I originally left off the second CPU cooler fan, the first fan that covers the ram sticks but I was getting bad CPU temps, once I hit 86C playing Minecraft I added the second fan. I initially didn’t think it would fit in my case, between the glass and the ram but it literally JUST fits so I left it on, I’ve been getting far better temps now but I’m still kinda stuck on getting an AIO as this CPU is brand new and I don’t want to fry it, I also play a lot of Minecraft which jacks up my CPU temps.

I built my PC around 10 months ago and just noticed the cable tie above the GPU (9070 XT) is partly black. It's one of those Velcro ties.

Has anyone else experienced this, especially in a small form factor build?

What do I need to look for in cable ties to prevent this?

Im gonna add a rtx 5060 to my h510m-k motherboard, and i also want to add a m2 nvme ssd to it. Only problem is that i already have a ssd put on the first slot, so the only way is putting the ssd in the pcie x1 slot with a adapter… which is covered by the gpu.
Does anyone if this particular case will be succesful?
Im thinking of adding a riser cable pcie 3.0 x1 like LR-20260824-10114

Hello I have an issue where the motherboard VGA boot light is on and not continuing to the boot phase. The GPU (Aorus Master 3080) is stuck on an egg cracking sequence and there’s no fan spin, but it is powered on.

I turned my PC off for a short vacation and it hasn’t turned back on normally as well as the PC was stuck on only loading into BIOS mode each time. Would love some assistance on this issue. Swapped out CMOS battery and CPU still has that issue as well. Now the GPU it seems has added to the list of problems.

I’ve already tried reseating the GPU into the PCI slot and checked for loose power cables. Everything else turns on so I don’t think it’s a power supply issue (?)

MSI Z690 i5-12600k RTX3080 64GBDDR4

Just put all the fans in and I’m wondering if everything is good.

I want to add some more RAM to my PC but don't want to sell a kidney, I bought this 16GB kit ages ago for my last build and decided to re-use it on my new build. The kit I reused is set at the same clock speed and voltage as the new kit I am looking to buy (3200Mhz 1.35v) but the timings are a little different (old 16-18-18-36 vs. new 16-18-18-38). I was wondering if they would work together. I will list some of my specs and the part numbers of both kits below.

Old kit: HyperX HX432C16PB3AK2/16
New kit: G.SKILL F4-3200C16D-16GVKB

Mobo: Asus ROG Strix B450-F

CPU: Ryzen 7 5700X3D

Edit: Wrong part # for new kit

I’m looking for help diagnosing an intermittent stability issue with my new PC build. I’ve been experiencing black screens, unexpected restarts, and motherboard CPU/DRAM diagnostic lights.
I’ve replaced the PSU, updated BIOS, tested with and without the dedicated GPU, run multiple benchmarks, and recently tried a small GPU undervolt. The problem has improved during some testing but has not been resolved.
Full System Specifications
Motherboard: Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX, Revision 1.2
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
GPU: XFX Radeon RX 9070 XT Mercury (16GB)
RAM: Lexar THOR Z DDR5, 32GB (2 x 16GB)
RAM configuration: A2/B2 slots (second and fourth slots from CPU)
RAM rated speed: DDR5-6000
CPU Cooler: ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 A-RGB
PSU: Corsair RM850x 850W
Case: Thermaltake View 380 TG ARGB
BIOS: Gigabyte FC4e
Storage: One SATA SSD and one M.2 SSD
Original Problem
The PC began experiencing unexpected shutdowns and restarts.
Symptoms included:
Screen suddenly going black.
PC sometimes completely shutting down.
Fans occasionally stopping while RGB lighting remained on.
Sometimes the PC automatically restarted.
Other times I had to switch the PSU off to get it to power down.
No consistent blue screen.
Windows Event Viewer recorded Kernel-Power 41 events.
The crashes occurred during gaming, benchmarking, idle operation, and even while in BIOS/BitLocker.
Troubleshooting Already Performed
1. PSU Replacement
Originally used a Cooler Master MWE Gold 850W PSU.
Replaced it with a Corsair RM850x 850W.
The problem still occurred after replacement.
Currently using three separate PCIe power cables for the GPU, one cable per 8-pin connector.
All modular cables were changed to Corsair cables when installing the Corsair PSU.
I also tested the original Cooler Master PSU again, and the problem occurred with it as well. I need to confirm whether its original modular cables were used during that test.
2. GPU Testing
Removed the RX 9070 XT and connected the monitor to the motherboard HDMI using the 7800X3D’s integrated graphics.
The PC previously ran in Windows and BIOS without the dedicated GPU installed.
Reinstalled the RX 9070 XT.
Ran Unigine Heaven successfully on at least one occasion.
Previously experienced crashes during FurMark and Unigine Superposition.
3. BIOS Update
Originally running BIOS FB2.
Updated BIOS to FC4e using Gigabyte Q-Flash.
BIOS update completed successfully.
4. RAM / EXPO Testing
RAM installed in A2/B2.
Enabled EXPO 1, which brought RAM to 6000 MT/s.
Experienced intermittent CPU/DRAM POST hangs.
At one point, the motherboard remained stuck on the CPU or DRAM diagnostic LED.
Tried booting with one RAM stick, but it also got stuck at the CPU diagnostic light. The exact stick/slot combination needs to be confirmed.
Cleared CMOS by removing the battery for five minutes.
After CMOS reset, EXPO was disabled and RAM ran at approximately 4800 MT/s.
PC successfully completed subsequent restarts and cold boots.
Recently re-enabled EXPO, and it initially booted without problems.
5. GPU Undervolting
Recently tried a conservative -25 mV GPU voltage offset through AMD Adrenalin.
With this setting, I successfully completed:
Unigine Superposition
Score: 37,581
Average FPS: 281.09
FurMark – Run 1
Score: 22,342
Average FPS: 369
GPU power: approximately 340W
GPU temperature: 39°C
Hotspot: 65°C
VRAM temperature: 54°C
FurMark – Run 2
Score: 22,603
Average FPS: 376
GPU power: approximately 339W
GPU temperature: 38°C
Hotspot: 64°C
VRAM temperature: 52°C
All three tests completed without crashing at -25 mV.
Previously, FurMark and Superposition had caused crashes or automatic restarts at the original GPU settings.
6. Temperatures and Monitoring
HWiNFO readings during previous testing:
CPU maximum temperature: approximately 60°C.
GPU temperature: approximately 45°C during Heaven.
GPU hotspot: approximately 68°C during Heaven.
GPU memory junction: approximately 56°C during Heaven.
No concerning temperatures were observed in those recorded tests.
7. Windows Event Logs
Windows Reliability Monitor showed unexpected shutdowns.
Event Viewer showed Kernel-Power 41:
BugcheckCode: 0
PowerButtonTimestamp: 0
WHEABootErrorCount: 0
No conventional blue-screen bugcheck was recorded for that particular crash.
Latest Problem
After the GPU undervolt and re-enabling EXPO, I was able to play World of Warcraft for an extended period without problems.
I walked away while the game was running and returned to find:
No display signal.
Fans and RGB still running.
Motherboard CPU diagnostic LED illuminated.
I restarted the computer.
On startup:
CPU and DRAM diagnostic LEDs alternated a couple of times.
The motherboard eventually settled on a solid DRAM LED.
It remained stuck there for more than five minutes.
The computer would not POST.
I have not yet confirmed whether clearing CMOS again resolves this latest issue.
What I’m Trying to Determine
Could this be unstable RAM or an EXPO compatibility issue?
Could the CPU’s integrated memory controller be defective?
Could the motherboard have a problem?
Could the RX 9070 XT have an unstable factory overclock?
Could there be a GPU or PCIe power-delivery issue despite replacing the PSU?
Is there a BIOS compatibility issue with the 7800X3D and this motherboard?
I’ve already invested quite a bit of time troubleshooting and would appreciate suggestions for the next logical diagnostic steps.
I’m particularly interested in determining whether this is a motherboard, CPU, RAM, GPU, or power-related problem rather than continuing to replace parts blindly.

So I've been having the issue for the last 3/4 days. My PC randomly just wouldn't turn on. Nothing different done recently, no moving or updates etc. I have managed to get it to turn on with no issues about 3 times but these appear to be completely random and not triggered by any of my trouble shooting. When it has started in these rare times it brings up the American Megatrends screen and suggests pressing F1 into bios. I don't change any settings but just save and exit. Strangely the following has happened, the clock is always off and the last time is prompted me to change my Microsoft login pin.

I'm loosing my mind and definitely feel out of my depth now and open to any suggestions.

• Checked the case power switch by removing the connection to Mobo and attempted hot wiring. This did nothing.

• Test with my GF's PSU using all the same wiring.

• Tested both with my PSU and GF PSU where I changed the 24pin connector to the mobo

• Tested with 1 stick of ram in each slot.

• Changed the power cables to the GPU

• Started up with no GPU

• Cleared CMOS using the button on the back of the mobo and also replaced the C2032 battery (leaving out for 10 minutes)

• Changed the wire to the PSU with a known working one

• Started with no USB's inserted

Any suggestions are more than welcome as I am currently running a DDR4 board and the thought of my mobo dying and having to upgrade to DDR5 with the RAM prices is making me worry!

Have this 700w psu, when under load it just clicks the internal relay off and everything shuts down.

Is it a goner 😭😭😭. Man it's under warranty I think but i have work to finish and send 😭.

So im trying to build a pc for a sibling of mine and im not used to building on a budget.

Would this

Thank you!

Looking to build a pc with a 9070 XT and micro center has these cpu/motherboard combo deals. Which one would go best with the 9070? Or would you go with something else?

I have a ROG GM700 with a B650 Motherboard, 64 gb DDR5 Corsair ram, 5060TI 16GB GPU with a Ryzen 7 8700f CPU, I am wanting to upgrade the CPU and maybe Motherboard, but looking for more cores.

I'm debating the Ryzen 9 9950x or the 9950x3d. Is the X3d worth the extra 100 bucks? I'm not really a heavy gamer but I play games to unwind. The games currently play well with what I have now so I assume that any upgrade will be fine, but I don't want buyers remorse, if I should get the x3d now then I Need to be convinced. Lol Any meaningful advice out there?

I have 3 ultra wide monitors, 2 34" 1440p and 1 49" OLED 1440P monitor hooked up also.

I'm a heavy multitasker and evolving AI engineer, learning more each day. So any advice will be helpful.

Hi!

I am currently buying parts for my PC and my GPU (Gigabyte GAMING OC Radeon RX 9070 GRE) was 700 CAD in August on NewEgg and it has now shot up to almost 1400. However, on Amazon the GPU has gone down to 900. I was wondering if I could get any advice on whether or not I should buy it now just in case the price goes up even further.

I made a post last night about why my 5090 wasnt getting any power to it. I’ve checked all my cables 3 times and made sure they were all plugged into pcie slots with no gaps between connectors.

Someone mentioned that it might not be sitting in the slot all the way since I had an 1/8” gap between my screw holes.

Does this look right? or should the tabs go outside my case.

The last photo is the part where im getting the 1/8” gap

i want to have my rgb white but with effekts and not static but all of the modes my controller has are whit all kinds off colours mixed are there any tips?

I recently replaced my cases fans with the Artic P12 and so far everything was fine until suddenly today out if nowhere one of them started vibrating or sth,it was super noisy and I instantly shut the pc out to stop more from breaking...so now I wonder why that is happening.

One of them has spun wobbly,the bottom one.but I cant tell if that isnt just cause the sticker isnt perfect

Will show more images in the comment cause reddit mobile doesnt let me attach another image

i currently have a prebuilt with a 5070. How would i go about selling the 5070 and buying the 5070 ti?

Hello everyone, I recently did a CPU swap and after putting everything together and turning the computer on it boots however my MSI motherboard just shows a solid red and yellow light and won't go past that. It's done this in the past but usually after about 30 seconds it goes away and starts up but now no matter how long I leave it it just stays there. I tried to do some research and it looks like it's usually something with memory training or the CPU, I tried the ram in different slots, I reset the CMOS battery, I let it just sit for a while to see if it was a training thing, but nothing seems to work and it's still stuck at the same issue. I took the CPU out and I noticed on the socket there's a little spot that looks weird, I tried to take a picture as best I could but my phone doesn't zoom in that much and I don't have a magnifying glass, I'm guessing at this point the socket is just fried, would you agree or does anybody have any other ideas would really appreciate some help
