    Question B660M Weird stability issues, tried new PSU but i think it might be the mb ?

    Swapped out the motherboard for a MSI Z690 and it’s STILL having the same problem! Exact same thing. This is driving me crazy I spent money on a new power supply and board for apparently nothing. I doubt it’s the ram because I tried each 8gb stick separately. Has anyone heard of this problem...

    Question PC fails to boot, takes up to 6 times to actually boot.

    Interesting that it was a gigabyte board. Been having stability issues with mine after only 6-7 months of light use and so got a MSI board on the way. The gigabyte is under warranty so if I swap boards out and it works with the MSI, I’ll send the gigabyte in under RMA. Guess I’ll end up with two...

    Oh sorry forgot to include ram: it’s G-Skill 8gbx2 ddr 4. Says “Ripjaws” on it. I did try using just one stick instead of two and still would shut off. Tried different slots etc

    Question B660M Weird stability issues, tried new PSU but i think it might be the mb ?

    Power Supply is an EVGA 700GD. Intel i5-12600k I was using a Corsair (650mx I think or maybe just x) and it was shutting off more often (or not turning on when I press the on button, had to press many times). The new power supply somehow allowed it to work better yet still crashing. It...

    Question B660M Weird stability issues, tried new PSU but i think it might be the mb ?

    I posted in another forum but I have a: Gigabyte b660m Aorus Pro Ax DDR4 board which started turning off under loads (worked fine under high loads for ~6 months). I was able to make it stable by turning down the TDP Power / other power settings to super low like 40w. Worked for a little while...

    Question Microcenter warranty good? Or elsewhere

    Well I was trying to check everything one by one on a pc I built but then the heatsink screw just broke off like butter so now it’s another thing to deal with. Decided to just buy a prebuilt machine just because it can be easier to deal with if something goes wrong. Theres a microcenter near...

    Bios version is F5. The power supply I took out was a Corsair RM650x (650w) replaced it with a EVGA 700GD. It’s turning on with the new supply but still has the weird stability issue. I have windows 11 on a SATA drive and Linux Mount on a usb drive (just so I can boot up and run stress apps)...
