    Question Bad CPU - Help me pick a new one for 4 year old build

    Thanks all... I'm on the latest version. I had to do that to get the 5600G to work. Should I upgrade anything else since this is a decent step up or will my hardware not bottleneck the new CPU?

    Question Bad CPU - Help me pick a new one for 4 year old build

    I've been having issues with this build for the four years I've owned it. Lots of BSODs, etc. I suspected it was the GPU and had eventually tested everything but the CPU and GPU. I got the chance last week to try a 5600G and the system worked great. I tested it for a few days and put my GPU...

    Question Best GPU to replace RX5700

    Actually someone recommended that I upgrade to a better PSU a year ago and I did.. I apologize for not updating that info. I now have the EVGA 210-GQ-0750-V1 750 GQ, 80+ GOLD 750W With the BIOS I found it would only run stable on 7C02v1B. I couldn't even install windows on anything but that...

    Question Best GPU to replace RX5700

    Wow.. those are expensive. I was thinking that three years later I could get something around $150 that would be at least a little better. I guess the RX6600 is not too bad

    Question Best GPU to replace RX5700

    I just ran Memtest86 v4.3.7 for 15 hours, 7 passes and 0 errors. I'll try just one stick at a time next. What is F@H?

    Question Best GPU to replace RX5700

    Yes.. about 2 1/2 years ago I ran some tests on it but I don't remember which ones or how long they took. I did have both sticks installed. Do you have a recommendation for something that I can run again?

    Question Best GPU to replace RX5700

    I suppose I could do a CPU upgrade with built in graphics and see if that resolves the issue.

    Question Best GPU to replace RX5700

    I did get one of the originals but their support never mentioned anything about RMA thermal pad replacements. I've tested my memory and it tested good.

    Question Best GPU to replace RX5700

    Thanks tennis2... This GPU is known to crash the system all the time. MSI's support could not help me and I've done all the fixes I could find.. which never work. My computer crashes at least once a day and I am tired of it. It works great when it doesn't crash though. I don't understand...

    Question Best GPU to replace RX5700

    I've had this system for 3 years now and it still works great but the MSI EVOKE Radeon RX 5700 XT has always been a problem. I'd like to replace this with something equal.. not really better because I don't game much anymore and don't want to spend a lot of money. Any recommendations on a GPU...

    [SOLVED] What should I upgrade on my system?

    I've learned that my power supply is not enough for my GPU currently. Any recommendations on a 750 watt or above power supply for this system? Also, if I add memory should I get two more sticks of 8gb each or two 16gb?
