Hello, Every time I launch my MacBook air, it shows the apple icon and a loading bar. This loads to about a third of the way then crashes every time. I've tried all sorts (safe boot, disk utility, reset SMC) the only thing which will stop it is if I go into options/disk utility menu on boot...

Thanks! I was also considering installing a new SSD or HDD, I know it won't take up near as much power but should 750 be enough for the GPU and HDD updated?

Since my OP I have upgraded my system Updated Specs CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 RAM: Crucial Ballistix 32GB (16x2) DDR4 3200MHz Originally this was a good upgrade but like many... Cyberpunk has led me to desire another upgrade sooner than later 🤣 I wanted to go all out and upgrade my GPU to a...

Thanks :)

Thanks a ton! Sucks there's not many options. Got a bit confused with the reply there, is it not an option to go for 2x16gb sticks rather then 4x8gb because of compatibility issues with the mobo? All the links are really useful too thanks, appreciate that.

Hey :) Just to update the situation I've bought the Ryzen 5 3600, major fps boosts and better performance was noticed straightaway so I'm very happy with the purchase. I currently have around £300 to spare (in counting) to put towards ram and potentially other parts. I know it might be a bit...

Thank you, the budget I can spend this month is £200, however I'm willing to wait and upgrade to more expensive parts in the next few months. I definitely have a plan ahead of me in terms of upgrading now though :) Thinking in the long run, I think I'd lean towards copping the Ryzen 5 3600...

Thanks for the replies sorry didn't see them till now, BIOS update was a huge shout it hadn't been updated since august 2017 so it will definitely help :) when it comes to upgrading the PC would it be better to get the RAM then CPU first then PSU? I'm also thinking of backing up some data then...

Two years ago I bought a prebuilt PC. However, this PC is unsuitable for what I need it for and I don't have the money to buy a whole new system as of right now. I am in a design course where decent rendering times and pc power is vital (photoshop, video-editing) as the current system struggles...

Note:The motherboard M.2 slot #1 shares bandwidth with SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports. When the M.2 slot is populated, two SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports are disabled. Note:Some physical dimension restrictions cannot (yet) be automatically checked, such as cpu cooler / RAM clearance with modules using tall heat...

Okay that's great. Thanks a lot! :)

Great changes will take longer to get but def worth it thank you! Will the stock cooler be good enough to keep it cool and also PCPartPicker comes up with a compatibility warning with the motherboard and cpu, can I just dismiss it?

Hey, so I'm trying to come up with a decent pc but I'm not entirely sure if I've got the best combinations of parts and I don't want to waste money. The maximum budget I would go to is £1300 but the lower the better as I'm still a student and can't spare much more :) I am on a creative course...
