    [SOLVED] Electronic burning smell from PSU after cleaning ?

    Please, PLEASE, do not wash your PSU's in water. How is this even on the table as an option? Isopropyl 70% or higher sure I can somewhat agree to that, but never water, it evaporates slowly and can hide everywhere. Also, if those caps aren't completely drained...you're going to have a very bad...

    [SOLVED] Timings for Patriot Viper Steel 16GB 4400Mhz with Ryzen 5600x

    I mean, it's a gamble. My experience tells me there's a good chance that they'll work, but it's not guaranteed and thus I can't in good conscience tell you it's fine for you to take the chance. It's your choice.

    [SOLVED] Timings for Patriot Viper Steel 16GB 4400Mhz with Ryzen 5600x

    @Darkbreeze OP asked: I answered it's not BS. OP is clearly looking for input regarding experience and to me it seems like he's going to have a whack at it. Regardless, the PVS4400 set is going to give him tons of joy trying to squeeze better and better timings from, and hardware wise, apart...

    [SOLVED] Timings for Patriot Viper Steel 16GB 4400Mhz with Ryzen 5600x

    14-15-15-15-30(3800) is doable, but depends on the die's you get and the voltage you're willing to run. 14-14-14-14-28(3800) is also possible, but "rare" and the extreme low latency requires a board that's daisy chained and have the dimm slots very close to the socket. Sneezing in the vicinity...

    [SOLVED] Could my PSU Cause micro-stutters?

    Not really, Win 10 should be all good with the 5000 series power scheduling, there's no harm in choosing a higher plan like Performance or whatever is available. Did you ever try the NVME drives one by one? Last option would be RMA'ing the card, but man, during these times that would really be...

    [SOLVED] Could my PSU Cause micro-stutters?

    With computers, someone farts in another galaxy and you get a BSOD. Sometimes the weirdest and most obscure small detail is the culprit. In your case, there's also the overhead issue, are you letting the 6900XT fly free? Unrestrained? Are you using AMD Freesync? Try setting Radeon Chill to...

    [SOLVED] Could my PSU Cause micro-stutters?

    Did you try unplugging absolutely everything not essential? Just one monitor, keyboard and mouse, no other USB gadgets. Have you disabled all start-up programs except Windows? Have you updated BIOS, AMD chipset and GFX drivers? The hang looks like something got worked on in the background, that...

    [SOLVED] How do I repair corrupted partition table after failed windows update

    Also, if you are considering to get professional help to restore the data, you must cease and desist any attempts to use the drive immediately, the drive no longer has a valid file table and WILL overwrite random or in sequence data as you keep trying to "repair" it. If you must use it, make...

    [SOLVED] Low GPU usage in some games(2-10%)

    What powerplan are you running? You aren't quite hitting your peak frequency on the CPU. Start -> Search bar -> type Power or similar -> Edit Power plan, choose High Performance. There's also Ultimate Performance power plan, but this is manually activated and should only be used on Desktops...

    [SOLVED] 4x8Go For Ryzen 3600

    Even the same model and characteristics, doesn't mean the that the chips used are the same, only that the chips are are compatible and be set to run at those specifications. Ram makers buy whatever chips are cheapest during 14 day inventory restocks. You are NOT guaranteed that it will work...

    [SOLVED] Low GPU usage in some games(2-10%)

    Question Cold War crashing

    Not sure his pre built of that quality would run into a failing AIO that soon, but, we've seen stranger things. I know that CW runs AVX, honestly just didn't think it would be heat off the bat. :p Wonder if he went to bed? Last message was 40 mins ago, and the messages before were pretty quick.

    Question Cold War crashing

    Depends on the cause of the crash, whether it's the GPU or CPU. Do you know how to overclock your graphics card? Do you use MSI Afterburner or similar program?

    Question Cold War crashing

    What Phaaze is alluding(I really spelled it eluding, like, what?) to is the possibility that normal operation and wear and tear has made the previously fine overclock now turn slightly unstable, it happens, it's normal.
