Pretty much sums it up. Alltho i would no longer bet on SLI since supoort , aka poor, is just that. Few games actually try nowadays to actively encourage dual gpu configs , as in the late 2010 quad sli configs. Club SLI is dead. Serveral games run better with just 1 card. Any 2nd GPU can be...

Try updating the bios first , to get compatibility issues out of the way. The B450 SHOULD support all the Rynz 5 all the way up to 3rd. gen. edit> https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B450-GAMING-PLUS-MAX 7B86vH5 is the latest version.

a gtx 960 is in the middle on midrange gaming cards not on the higher ass end on entry cards xD. And yes, serious gaming with an 1030 will fail. Just work the settings with some headroom in mind while keeping resolution and quicks to a tolerable level.

Wich is most likely the developer intent. Once u got a decent frame per seconds you can work your way up in settings. Who knows how far a toaster can go. Edit: Also was a poor example of a game to mention since it can run on just about on everything most of the time , but the core idea is...

Try reseating your M.2 first and re-check their SMART status , if available. Try Prime 95 for stress tests since it has way better options to do so. Hwinfo should be able to give you a rundown on the system while prime95 gets to work. And yes, some tests can spike the CPU temp to 80 but should...

Also lets be honest. 5 years ago is a LOT of time considering as computer industry advances and requirements do too. Also the A10 with a 1030 (5 years ago?) is at best considered a budget build mainly for common tasks and some lighter gaming aka League of Legends within reasonable, aka low...

Anything suspicious in the event-viewer?

Limitation of the chipset , or so some OEM pointed out similar if its error Whea-logger 17. Update BIOS, since u already did the drivers (?) and if the log entry still generates try disabling native PCIE power handling as a work around . write this in the cmd promt with admin privileges >...

Previously used Harddrive?

Feel free to read up a bit more about it https://www.gamersnexus.net/guides/1349-ram-how-dual-channel-works-vs-single-channel?showall=1 https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/ddr4-single-channel-vs-dual-channel.3048324/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-channel_memory_architecture

Most of the data would sit on one bank. And if 1 or more memory is slower the highest speed of the slower memory takes precedence and faster modules getting brakes squeezed on.(as they say , a computer is only as fast as its slowest component.) If they work at lower speeds , fine , if they don...

Not sure if its anything to to case but honestly how about renovating altogether? 711 is over 13 years old. just make sure your place is ventilated after you turn off the computer and air humidity is within acceptable levels.

Happy to help. Mark your question as solved. have a good one.

Usually the board indicates DIMM 0 DIMM 1 etc around the slots to better identify them. If the right slots are populated it ll activate dualchannel regardless of memory capacity installed. Whenever that is the optimal thing is another matter. Stick the 4GB modules into slot 1 and 3 and the 2GB...

Do that and we ll see if the reset still happens . My guess would be that it wont tho, can t know for sure until you try.
