    New MB & CPU = New Windows Install?

    Your computer will work and boot just fine. There are only two things i can see giving you any problems: 1. Your boot settings. Is your windows install an EFI or legacy BIOS install? How is your current motherboard set to boot, look for Secure Boot, UEFI Boot, UEFI Compatibility mode, etc...

    Upgrading RAM on Ryzen

    I would say to check with your motherboard manufacturer about the RAM compatibility. Generally they keep a list of compatible stuff but they don't always update it. I've had trouble going above 3200mhz on Ryzen. On a 1700 i was able to get 3333mhz after a bios update for my asus crosshair vi...

    Buying an ultrawide... Question about refresh rates

    Necessary? No. Worth it? Only people who have used it will you tell you it's worth it. It's something you have to experience for yourself. It is a night and day difference. It's the best of both worlds - the smoothness of v-sync and the responsiveness of no v-sync. I will never again buy a...

    I just want companies to stop with the crazy packaging. I want them to stop worrying about my unboxing experience. I want to stop PAYING for something that has nothing to do with the product. I just want the product. Don't want any extra stuff. There is nothing wrong with the current Intel CPU...

    Most breathable gaming chair

    I wouldn't bother looking for a "gaming" chair. They're usually pretty uncomfortable, expensive, and lack adjustability. Most "gaming" chairs are fake leather anyway, so not gonna help. Go somewhere like Staples or some office store and try out a bunch of chairs, then maybe look at other things...

    RTX 2080ti with Ryzen 5 1600 and 620 watt power supply?

    As long as you don't plan to add a second 2080ti, you will be fine. You'll probably be in the range of 300-400 watts while gaming.

    Asus AM4 Motherboard doesn't support Ryzen 3-1300X?

    If they support one Ryzen 3 processor, it's pretty safe to say that they'd support the full Ryzen 3 lineup.

    People can hear the sound on my pc.

    Not exactly sure what you're using that splitter for - may not even have anything to do with your problem. First thing to do is to check what your Recording device is set to in Windows. Right Click the sound icon near the bottom right and pick recording devices, if it's set to something other...

    MSI BIOS Updates Address Cryptocurrency Mining Performance Issues

    I doubt anyone will be following MSI, it's more likely that MSI is late to the game. Above 4G Decoding has been an option in 2 of my Asus motherboards (z-170 and x370) for several months now.
