    Question CPU Degraded in a Day?

    MSI Z790 Pro-A. I've realised now that I can't even get it stable at fully stock settings. Something has definitely gone wrong, just not sure if it's the CPU or the Motherboard.

    Question CPU Degraded in a Day?

    I upgraded to a 13700KF about a week ago and have been tweaking my overclock of it ever since. I got it stable at 5.5GHz all P-Cores with E-Cores disabled. I also overclocked my RAM from 3600MHz CL16 to 3900MHz CL17. This configuration was rock solid stable, passing hours of Cinebench...

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    Coincidentally my friend just had his MSI Z370-a Pro motherboard die on him a couple days ago. Looks like I'll be staying away from MSI boards in the future. For this new board I went with Gigabyte since I've personally had many good experiences with them in the past. Looks like this new board...

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    I don't want to speak too soon but I think the Motherboard swap seems to have solved it. I am also getting much better temperatures (10-20c lower). I am running at 5GHz now and there is no strange sound when I open the Oculus app and I haven't experienced a shutdown/reboot yet. I find it really...

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    I am changing the core ratio to 4.9GHz all core along with the voltage. The 10900k has an all core boost of 4.9GHz anyway, I just change the core ratio to make sure it runs at that all the time. However, as I said before, it doesn't matter what I change the clock to, I could change it to 4.5GHz...

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    I have a new motherboard arriving in a few hours for me to test and see if it fixes the issue, while I'm installing it I will check my current motherboard for any bent pins. My memory is: Corsair Vengeance CMK16GX4M2B3000C15. I have 4 sticks of it but the issue persists no matter what...

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    Yeah, right from the start. It's taken me a while to narrow the cause down because it was only happening about once a week until I realised that certain programs cause it to happen more often. I also only just figured out that it only happens when the core ratio setting is changed from anything...

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    I did a clean install of Windows when I first built the PC and have done so a couple times since, each time reinstalling all of my programs and apps onto my SSD (same SSD Windows is on). The 82% figure is just from a program that checks SSD health with regards to how many read/write cycles it...

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    Motherboard BIOS is updated to the latest version (7C80v1A). Power Supply is a brand new RM750x, I have tried three different power supplies hoping to fix this issue. Windows was clean installed and all of my drives were completely wiped including all partitions in the installation disk manager...

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    The Oculus (along with all of my other programs) app is on my SSD that I've had for a couple years. I checked the health of it and it is apparently at 82%.

    [SOLVED] Extremely Weird Z490 Motherboard Issue

    So for the last 6 months after building my PC, I've been experiencing random shutdowns and reboots (with no BSOD) while at idle or opening programs. Never happens with gaming or stress test. Well, I just figured out the issue and it is extremely weird. I noticed that I can replicate the...

    [SOLVED] GPU Fan Only Spins When Precision is Installed

    I have an EVGA 2080ti FTW3 ULTRA. For some reason, the right fan (third from the left) will only spin under load when EVGA Precision is installed. If I uninstall EVGA Precision and run heaven benchmark, the fan will stay off and temps will reach into the 80s. If I install EVGA Precision and run...

    Question Idk if its software or hardware could some pro tips.

    Is it still freezing and rebooting only when you play games?

    Question Idk if its software or hardware could some pro tips.

    It should just be a software problem, I doubt you'd have damaged any physical components just by messing around in the BIOS unless you set some crazy high voltage for your CPU or something like that. Make sure you use the factory defaults option in the BIOS (should be one of the function keys)...

    Do you have any kind of overclock on your CPU?
