    Question 7800x3d doesn’t boot consistently

    Just kidding. Everything was fine and dandy yesterday but today the problem reared it’s ugly head again with the second cpu. No longer recognizing drive in bios. If I put the boot m.2 in any other slot besides the first one it will boot. But with the other processor the slot works fine every...

    Question 7800x3d doesn’t boot consistently

    Ended up being an RMA for the cpu. Got the new one back from AMD today and worked without a hitch. Odd that a brand new 7800x3d was DOA but I guess they don’t call it the silicon lottery for nothing.

    Question rx 6800 xt or 6950 xt

    Based on the price ranges given in your region, the 6950xt is about 22% more expensive for roughly 15 percent better performance. So the 6800 xt is a better value in this instance. Also, the tdp of the 6950xt is only a little higher, 335w vs 300 for the 6800xt.

    Question 7800x3d doesn’t boot consistently

    Just reset cmos again, unplugged pc, waited a couple minutes. Held the cmos button in for about 10-15 seconds. Turned pc back on took me right back into the bios, and back to the loop. I try to exit bios and It almost seems like it gets to the windows screen but just before it goes right back

    Question 7800x3d doesn’t boot consistently

    Well, this is less than ideal. Recently upgraded from the 7600x to the 7800x3d. Had no real issues with the former just wanted the best in socket cpu. Ever since though I’ve had issues booting into windows. The msi logo will appear on screen, and then loop back to the bios. Sometimes I can get...

    Is GTX 960 compitable with my PC?

    It should give you a little better fps, how much depends on the games you're playing. Try researching benchmarks for that card to get an idea. If fps is your concern you might consider the gtx 1060 it's a better card but a little more expensive

    Will the Sims 3 run on this machine?

    The intel hd 530 is an integrated graphics controller that is part of the cpu itself. In the reference sheet it is the intel hd 530, not the nvidia 530. So yes it looks like it would run the sims 3. It would run better if you had a dedicated graphics card, you could easily run sims 3 and 4 max...

    Hello, system in my sig. I am currently using a corsair HX650w power supply, from an older build. (2011) It's been working well as far as I know, I haven't had any known problems with stability. However I am running this rig with moderate/heavy overclocks on my ram, cpu and gpu. My question is...

    Cpu and Gpu radiators. Mount both as intake or both as exhaust?

    I had another few questions on this setup. How much do you think it will increase case temps having both rads in front? Also there's a filter in front as well will that restriction affect temps if I mount rads there? My final concern is having rads below the pumps, because as far as I know doing...

    Can I use a bluetooth for pc gaming?

    You should be able to as long as the pc is bluetooth capable or has a bluetooth usb dongle like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Bluetooth-Adapter-Raspberry-Compatible/dp/B009ZIILLI/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1491196779&sr=1-3&keywords=usb+bluetooth+adapter+for+pc
