Yeah that is what my friend told me I'd rather be out of $114 for a new motherboard then $350 for another 3700x this is strange this happened because I never overclocked my processor.

EDIT: I just looked at my old cpu again and determined theres no broken pin inside the hole I cleaned it with a tip of a thumbtack but still cannot see anything moving underneath it like I can with the rest of the holes. I have a B450 tomahawk mobo when I removed my 2700x somehow the pins were...

I have a rtx 2080 installed I found out the new processor also bent exactly one pin I tried to fix it and it broke off $550 down the drain. The broken pins from the first processor must have been stuck in the motherboard socket only way I can think that this would have happened 2 times in a row...

So I updated my bios before hand to support the new ryzen 3000 series it even said in the bios the version was the current updated one. Now here comes the weird part I install the ryzen 3700x I get no video I tried multiple monitors and inputs nothing still. I was just running it with a 2700x...

Dang I wonder why it wont power on then I was able to remove the damaged cable I'm at frys electronics and they do not have this type of cable do you know what it's called? Here's another pic of the cable. https://ibb.co/cx7WW73 https://ibb.co/k3fK1L4 https://ibb.co/cF7KbG4

I just bought a new pc case and the power button would not work upon further investigation I found 2 small wires that came loose from the plastic enclosure it was connected to. Do I heat the ends up with a soldering iron and jam them back in there or can this not be fixed? Here are images so...

That was my original idea sure they will hassle me but it's worth it and I'm moving to Thailand.

I'm planning on moving abroad soon and would like to bring my pc with me since the prices of hardware are ridiculous outside of the US. I have a full size atx mobo (B450 Tomahawk) my gpu is a rtx 2080 windforce oc I need to know what the smallest case is so I can make my plan work or something...

I removed my ram then placed it back in and my system is functioning normal again that's the last thing I would have expected to be causing overheating issues. My roomate must have hit my computer when I was on vacation cause I know I installed it correctly the first time.

Yeah i updated to the newest version and I undervolted my cpu by 0.2 volts that seemed to stabilize my temps and I'm back to gaming again it's still sketchy i had to do this with a top of the line gaming cpu.

I just scanned my PC for malware and it surprisingly found some but sadly removing the malware did not solve the issue I've also scanned for regular viruses and I've tried updating all the drivers.

The only thing that boots on start up is utorrent and Outlook my idle temp is 66c and then once I close utorrent and Outlook my temp drops to 38c I already applied new thermal paste twice looked in the task manager not sure what's going on I only use this pc to game and the temps just started...

I have battlefield 5 open in 4k all ultra medium dxr on my 2080. I have had it open for 30 mins and my cpu temp has been hovering around 60c my gpu temp has been staying around 62c but at the bottom theres a separate gpu temp that says 90c and this really alarmed me. Which one is my actual temp?

Update 2: a clip holding down the CPU cooler was loose works great now. I have a tomahawk b450 motherboard, 16 ddr4 ram 3000 mhz, ryzen 2700x, rtx 2080 windforce, 700 watt ozc gold rated 80+++ power supply so I've tried 2 different games in 4k and my pc will keep freezing after a few mins. My...
