    [SOLVED] Any problems with my new build?

    You need to make sure your memory is fast enough for your CPU. If your CPU is too fast for your RAM. The CPU gets bottlenecked. (Can't perform optimal because another component is holding it down) Data is fed from your RAM to your CPU, where it gets processed. If your CPU is done with one...

    [SOLVED] !!HELP!! PC Starts but wont display

    Does your motherboard have warning LED's? They're mostly left from the CPU-socket. Every LED has its own meaning. Normally there's 4 LED's, 1 for CPU, 1 for BIOS, 1 for MoBo and 1 for VGA (GPU) If the VGA LED flickers when you start your build, you might wanna look for a warranty claim. If the...

    [SOLVED] Still worth it?

    Yeah ofcourse. But the GPU is a bit on the downside. Games nowadays need at least 3GB of VRAM. Your RAM should be ok if you know what speeds it has. I would add another 4gb of the same MHz

    [SOLVED] High pitched bird-like sound from my desktop

    Probably a fan. Disconnect them one by one as the system is running. This way you'll know which one it is. But don't take too long on this so your system doesn't get overheated. If it's your PSU's fan then, well. Nothing to be done but to buy a new PSU

    [SOLVED] Still worth it?

    Definitely. Totaly worth it!!! The prices are high on a global scale. The reason for this is because of cryptocurrency. What happened? Well. Everybody noticed that there was money to be made. They all started to buy mining rigs. What is needed for mining rigs? Graphics cards. Alot of graphics...

    [SOLVED] Do you need to download LAN drivers before you can you ethernet?

    I build computers on a daily basis. Never had to install LAN drivers before. Just plug in the UTP and you're good to go. It might be usefull to download them since they're probably newer versions.

    [SOLVED] Nudging the power cable makes a sparking noise, PC shuts off and restarts

    There's probably a Part number on there. Look it up. A lot of sites sell replacement components. I know a couple but they're rom the Netherlands. ReplaceDirect or Twindis are two of them.

    [SOLVED] Computer not displaying

    What kind of build is it? It might be your PCIe-slot where your GPU is seated that kinda cracked during the transport. Try using your CPU integrated graphics to test it (if it has any).

    [SOLVED] PC firsty had BIOS loop, now died

    yes, but i think the most important one is the boot drive. Also, perform a CMOS-reset like Mandark says. Remove the battery and push the powerbutton a few times, with the PSU turned off. So all the remanent electricity discharges. This way you won't have to wait. To clarify: PSU off or...

    [SOLVED] PC firsty had BIOS loop, now died

    You're probably gonna need a different system where you can install the HDD/SSD. From there you can normally switch it back to AHIC

    [SOLVED] Encountered an issue with my PC. Unsure of what to do.

    VERY bad idea to not put a heatsink on your CPU. ALWAYS at least a heatsink!!! A CPU's heat dissipates freakishly fast. Do you have any other systems laying around? Test every single component seperatly step by step in that system.

    Question No Display/wont boot/white led

    It's only logical your motherboard posts a white LED when the card is removed. Ryzen 5 doesn't have integrated graphics and the motherboard can't find your card. If you're lucky your card might still be in warranty, which is probably not the case 😕
