Basically, my question is are AM3 socket motherboards and cpus (FX-8350 for eg.) worth buying right now? I have 32gb of DDR3 ram and I would like to use it in my new build but this keeps me from buying AM4/1151 cpu. I have $800 for the rest of the components and I will be using my PC for more...

I've tried all of that, nothing works. I've tried making bootable usbs with rufus with every variation possible, but it either doesnt recognise it as bootable, gets me to blue screen or tells me there is something wrong with usb. What really baffles me is that everything is detected properly in...

I've put together a PC from used components and all I have left to do is formating hdd and instaling new OS. Trouble is, I can't do that it seems. I it always gets me to blue screen. I've tried two different usbs, one with windows 7 and the other with win 10. Neither of them are working. Hdd and...

I did. I even removed hdd as bootin option. Now i'm 100% sure it's not usb problem since it work on my other pc, but not on this one

I don't have optical drive. I doubt tso different usbs are both defective tho

I'm trying to do that but it won't let me. 2nd image is error i get when trying to boot from usb

Recently I've saved up some money and decided to get a new pc. Since I'm a poor student, every penny I save is valuable to me. So, I've bought some used components (everything except for PSU, that's the only part I didn't cheap on): Asus H77 Pro4/MVP i5 2500 Crucial 2x4 DDR3 ram R9 380x...

My motherboard is Asus H77 Pro4/MVP and cabels i have left from the case are reset sw, power sw, pled + and -, and hdd led. How do i connect them? Do i need those, besides power and reset?

For example, if it says on manufacturer's website that it supports 2200(OC)/1333/1066/800 MHz memory modules, but I have 1600 MHz ram, will it work ?

My system specs: i5 2500 Sapphire R9 380x NITRO 8Gb DDR3 RAM 1.5Tb SATA 3 7200rpm PSU that I have is this one (it's 5 years old, but it has been working under extremely low conditions): https://www.asus.com/Power-Supply/P50GA/overview/ Will it be strong enough for this build, or do I need to...

Hello everyone. I've got a pretty big problem here and I hope some of you can help me resolve it. I wanted to upgrade my system a little bit so I've purchased a R9 380x gpu and Asus P-50GA psu to go with it. Before this, I had this PSU in my PC...

There is more than just wattage that determines can a psu run a certain card. A rule of thumb is, if your psu doesn't already have a 6-pin cable, it probably can't power the card that requires it and buying an adapter would be a very stupid idea. GTX 750 ti doesn't require very strong psu, it...
