    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3 2200G Overclock voltage and frequency question

    Hi! Ive overclocked my 2200G to 3.8GHz @ 1.384v thru UEFI. I noticed that I the clockspeed and voltage does not automatically run lower with very light workloads (Around 8% CPU usage). How am I going to be able to correct this? I want to run it at a lower clockspeed when CPU usage is low

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 3 APU and B350 motherboard wont POST

    Good day! I recently bought a 2200G and a Asus Prime B350 Plus. I tried to make it POST but I got no signal nor does the speaker give out any code. Is this normal? Do i have to let it run for a few minutes? All LEDs are lit and the CPU fan isn't ramping up wildly. Only the 24 Pin and CPU power...

    How can i remove scratches from my mid tower?

    I dont have a dremel tool. Is it possible to do it by hand? I dont mind putting a lot of time into it. And what kind of compound? Is it the same as the used for car scratches?

    How can i remove scratches from my mid tower?

    Hi, I recently bought an NZXT Phantom 410 and there are some very light scratches on the front and top plastic panels. I would like to know if there is anything that i can do to remove these scratches. All of the scratches seem to be very light cause i cant feel it with my fingernails

    Hi, I recently bought a i5 4570 (bulk) from a secondhand store in Japan. Specs in intel ark says that the cpu can run up to 3.6GHz on turbo mode but its only running at 3.4GHz on turbo. I also set the max (3.6) and min (2.8) speeds via UEFI but it does not hit 3.6GHz. Please help :(

    Looking for a gpu to add to my pc!!

    I would recommend going with an RX 480 and replace the 750w psu with a 520 or 550w unit, preferably Seasonic or Corsair. I also would recommend finding a Haswell i5 that is way below SRP if you want to maximize your budget. You can also go with a Skylake i5 if you wish. Locked i5s will do for...

    Look for a PC case for my new build (comments welcome)

    You can check reviews on youtube. It might help you narrow down which case you really want with respect to price/budget, taste, and features. I recommend looking for hardwarecanucks on youtube if you want an in-depth review of the cases you are interested in (even their older reviews are still...

    Look for a PC case for my new build (comments welcome)

    My case doesn't have any 5.25 bays. I have a Fractal Design Define S. If it is still a requirement for you to have a optical drive, you can buy a slim external one which can be used on multiple computers (I personally think having an external one is better than having an internal one). Do note...

    Look for a PC case for my new build (comments welcome)

    Check out the NZXT Phantom 240. If you'd prefer a much simpler case, I recommend going for the S340 because it has a magnetic filter at the front. For the price, you are not getting a better deal than the S340
