    [SOLVED] No display after installing new graphics card

    When uninstalling the old driver did you boot to safe mode and use DDU? Make sure the card is correctly seated in the slot. Make sure you don’t have a cable problem, try using different ports on the on the GPU to connect your monitor. PSU may be having issues.

    [SOLVED] Choosing a graphics card ?

    True but even in my own system, I have a 10700K. My RX 6700 XT is expected to push about 124 fps average in Far Cry 5 at 1440P/Ultra with a 5800X. With the CPU I have I average about 118 FPS, not transformational no. But for me its annoying to see FPS left on the table, so much that I am...

    [SOLVED] Choosing a graphics card ?

    I mean I wouldn't call a 15-35% performance gain in gaming when comparing the 3600 to the 5600X insignificant. In some games that will be the difference between achieving 144 fps and not.

    [SOLVED] EVGA FTW3 ULTRA 3070 ti bad core clocks

    The real question is the performance where it should be? If you are getting good FPS and it is in line with the expected performance from your card, then there is no problem.

    Question How do I make it so MSI afterburner keeps the settings that I set on it when I close it?

    After hitting "apply" click the floppy disk icon on the right side of afterburner, then click a number slot to save it to. Also click the box on the left side so the settings are activated upon restart.

    Question how to get rid of lines on the screen?

    Did you try booting to safe mode and using DDU when you uninstalled the driver? But yes this sounds like a hardware issue.

    [SOLVED] Choosing a graphics card ?

    If you talking about getting every single frame out of a card a 3600 will definitely leave some frames on the table. Not that it is necessarily bottlenecking but that 3rd Gen Ryzen has limitations that 4th Gen just doesn’t.

    [SOLVED] Choosing a graphics card ?

    3600 will hold that GPU back in a lot of games. Ryzen 5000 or intel 10 or 11 Gen will be better. But if that’s all you can get then it will be fine.

    [SOLVED] EVGA FTW3 ULTRA 3070 ti bad core clocks

    Metro is a cpu heavy game, you might not get full tilt clocks if your CPU is holding the card back. Which CPU are you running? Also consider turning off PCI-E clock gates in your bios. Also what PSU do you have?

    Question Are you a brand loyalist?

    Nope never, its all about price and performance for me. I could care less if it blue, red, or green. As far as board partners I like Gigabyte motherboards but simply because they tend to have the most robust VRM for the money. I also like MSI and Gigabyte GPUs but I'm not loyal.. if I can get a...

    Question Games will freeze on a frame and continue to run. Random black screen flashes.

    Did you use DDU before you installed you drivers for your Nvidia card? Left over files from the AMD drivers might be causing these problems.
