LOL I was writing a reply to thank you for your earlier suggestion as you were writing this. Thankfully, I didn't have to go as far as checking/replacing the RAM. I only needed to update the BIOS! And it's a good thing the B450 TOMAHAWK is equipped with BIOS FLASHBACK+, so I was able to Flash...

Thanks in advance for all assistance received. I've just completed my first PC build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/CADesigns/saved/#view=twqQqs and it looks amazing. I turned it on for the first time and everything appeared to be OK--CPU, intake and exhaust fans started, graphics card and LED...

is there anyway to view Vizio TV System Directory? When I insert my flash drive into the USB port of the TV I can't find it on the TV to view its contents. Thanks in advance.

Thanks man. I'm located in the US. And thanks for the rating tip.

Hi, I need an AC Power Cord for Corsair TX850M PSU but can't find the OEM replacement. Can you recommend a compatible version, please based on the power table below: Corsair TX850M Semi Modular power table Max Load Max Output Model RPS0067 +3.3V 25A 130W Part No. CP-9020130 /...

Thanks.

Thanks. If the manufacturers would list the Watt/Amp values on their website, I could do the math and figure it out myself.

EXACTLY!! So for those people the TDP Compatibility Guide is fine. However, for the tech savvy people such as yourself and others--I'm not including myself since I'm still learning--I think an average figure should be included on their spec page. The same data/benchmarks they used to compile the...

LOL

I don't view manufacturers that do list TDP values as trying to 'mislead' consumers since as it relates to performance data, the value listed is only based on the build on which the test was performed. It's virtually impossible to test a heatsink in every possible build configuration so whenever...

I ran into the same issue when researching Heatsinks. Some manufacturers list the TDP rating while others don't (Noctua, Scythe, etc.) I contacted Noctua to find out why that is the case and they gave me the following explanation (sorry in advance for the long read): "The problem is that a...

I've been searching but can't seem to find the 'power draw' (Watt/Amps) for the: Cougar Vortex CF-V12HP 4-pin 120mm PWM fan Akasa Viper S-Flow AK-FN059 120mm PWM fan I'm building a new system with the following specs: --AMD Ryzen 5 2600X CPU --MSI B450 Tomahawk MoBo --G,Skill Trident Z RGB...

Thanks again.

My specs almost mirror yours. I purchased the F4-3000C16D-32GTZR. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the link. I checked it out and it's suggesting the Trident Z RGB 32GB 2400MHz CL15 (F4-2400C15D-32GTZR). The higher speed sticks you suggested won't be a problem I take it?
