no, I have no RGB components in my case, only RGB software I have is for my keyboard

Okay, so quick rundown of my parts: ASRock Fatal1ty b450 ryzen 3600x be quiet pure rock slim (cpu cooler) 2x8 GB corsair vengeance (DDR4 3200Mhz) kingston A2000 m.2 nvme ssd (boot) Seagate barracuda compute 2TB 7200RPM (storage) msi rx 570 8gb corsair cx 750W win 10 pro The system is no older...

I set it back to base clock and no I haven't underclocked my RAM.

Okay, so I built a fairly new Rig: ryzen 5 3600X Be quiet pure rock slim corsair 3200Mhz 2x8GB DDR4 ASRock B450 Fatal1ty RX 570 8GB 750W Corsair CX750 Seagate Barracuda Compute 2TB 7200RPM (storage) Kingston SA2000M 250GB NVMe SSD (for Windows 10) So I have been using my PC for a month, with...

are there any ways I can test the gpu apart from seeing if it crashes on games? I'm getting a new build soon and it has no integrated graphics.

So I tried selling an old r9 390x sapphire nitro (unused). The person I sold it to returned it to me saying "we sys admins recognise when a gpu smells burnt". So I felt really guilty, had no idea, I mean I never even used the thing. So I basically said "well if the warranty is off i can't mess...

a bit of a newbie question, I suppose, but I'm selling an RX 570 to a friend that basically was used to install windows and crash after a YouTube video, this has happened to a previous new GPU as well and after changing the PSU it persisted, so upon closer inspection a resistor (capacitator? idk...

Thank you for the lovely suggestions, i'm interested in any good budget B550 boards you can suggest

So I'll be replacing my old build since my PCI-E got busted a while back. The PSU I am using is what i'll keep since it's only 2 years old and never gave me a crash. I am considering which do I sell an which do I keep: Unused R9 390X (the one in the list) or unused Gigabyte Gaming MI RX 570 8GB...

Keeping my house warm sounds great, so i'm sticking with the 390X, also returning the GPU by warranty will bring me like the whole cost of it which I can use to deck out my build with some new RAM as well lol

warranty is in force for the rx 570, only thing that's been happening to the 390X is collecting dust for 2 years

I had to buy a second GPU to realise that the problem was in my motherboard so I'm looking to sell one and plug the other one in a new motherboard. Which one would you sell? Which one would you keep? The R9 390X or the RX 570 8GB version? Keep in mind consumption is not an issue, my PSU can...

Thanks for answering, it's much appreciated. However, I have a very good Corsair CX750 so power consumption wouldn't be much of an issue. My bad I didn't specify my specific build

Long story short, a storm fried half of my PC, got everything changed except my CPU and motherboard, warranty covered everything, only 2 new purchases were a good CPU cooler and an R9 390X (crypto boom, didn't have my older card in stock). I changed my drivers, got the newest ones, then it...

what if I run individual tests on the PSU, Furmark on the GPU. If both end up doing fine without crashes then it's probably the motherboard. I've checked voltages on the PSU and everything is right on the factory defaults. No charts seem to be off by any margin, so it's either a second bad GPU...
