    [SOLVED] Finding compatible 2x32GB 3600MHz RAM (using QVL) for GIGABYTE AORUS MASTER X570

    Thanks for the response, though I really don't understand why you have to be so hostile. Is it such a crazy thing to ask for a bit more confirmation before throwing $400 at a stick of ram? I'm not asking for a thesis, but to be honest I'm not sure if you even read my whole question. A big part...

    [SOLVED] Finding compatible 2x32GB 3600MHz RAM (using QVL) for GIGABYTE AORUS MASTER X570

    Could you provide some reasoning as to why it would work with any X570 board? Even G.SKILL doesn't list any of the ASROCK X570 motherboards apart from the X570 AQUA in their QVL.

    [SOLVED] Finding compatible 2x32GB 3600MHz RAM (using QVL) for GIGABYTE AORUS MASTER X570

    I've been picking parts for my new desktop for a little while and almost felt like I've completed everything, until I checked the QVL for the motherboard, and it seems I just can't find any RAM that fits my requirements - more on this later. First let me list the parts: CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT...

    Windows 10 Creator Update (15063) finishes installing but then promps me to upgrade again, even after reboot

    I've tried installing the Windows 10 Creator Update (15063) via the Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant. It goes on through the upgrade, shows progress, everything is fine, but when it finishes I can just open it up again and it still says I have my old version 14393. I've tried restarting but it...

    Is it normal that my RAM sticks are inaccessible due to a large CPU heat sink?

    I have i7-5820K on MSI X99A SLI PLUS, which came with a free CPU cooler Scythe Ninja Scnj-4000 4 Now I've been having issues with my RAM, and ran memtest86 only to find lots of errors. As usual, I wanted to test which module is causing the issue, so I opened up my case, and noticed that one of...

    Looking for an NVidia GPU that can handle my 27" 2560x1440 display playing AAA games

    When I built my desktop, I initially got GTX 960 2GB, thinking that it'd be good enough, since I only had a 1920x1200 display, which worked out okay and I could play all the games I wanted. But then I bought 27" 2560x1440 display, and now I can't rea But what I didn't realize, that when...

    CPU stays underclocked at 1.16GHz after waking up from sleep

    At first I thought my computer was just under too much load, but then looking at the task manager, it shows my CPU runs at 1.16GHz, of the maximum 3.30GHz. Rebooting does seem to help, but when the computer goes to sleep and then wakes up, it will stay at 1.16GHz. If I run a stress test such as...

    Looking for a game development laptop with a dedicated NVIDIA GPU

    1. What is your budget? If at all possible under $2000. The absolute maximum I'd say is about $2100. 2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering? I'd prefer 13" to 14". The absolute maximum I'd go for is 15.6". 3. What screen resolution do you want? At least 1400x900, which...
