Thanks for the replies! Yeah, it is an UEFI BIOS, sry I didn't make that clear. Yeah, I got the BIOS side of things right. Turns out it was somehow corrupted AMD drivers. It's AMD that displays that restart prompt and apparently even wiping the drivers and suite by the built-in "factory reset"...

Hi! Asus TUF B550 Plus Ryzen 7 5800x3D Radeon RX 6900 XT So I just learnt about SAM and what kind of boost it can give to game performance. Updated BIOS and off I went into the BIOS to turn on resizable bar, checked that CSM was disabled and 4G decoding @ auto. After that? I get a...

Hi! I've been having a very annoying first world problem: My Win 10 PC makes TV as secondary display disappear every reboot. If I turn on the TV, no signal, Windows can't detect it in display settings, I toggle TV input channels back and forth (this used to work sometimes); nothing. The only...

... And of course the disks were in slots 5 & 6 since they were the only ones reachable under the colossal 6900 XT. :D Removed the card, reslotted to 1 & 2 and the drives were found. Thanks all!

It's in there under the heatsink/-shield.

I have an EVO 970 Plus on the main m.2 nvme slot that's under a heatsink. That's got Windows on it and is working like it should.

I had changed the PSU to a fully modular before the mobo swap, but the cables are the same that worked with the B350.

Hi y'all! I updated my mobo from Asus B350 Prime Plus to Asus TUF Gaming B550 Plus and since neither of my SATA disks are detected by BIOS or Windows. I have enabled CSM as many guides.. well, guide and every SATA port (?) individually in the BIOS. Tried a different power cable as a long...

Thank you! Couldn't find any such options in the AMD Software, but the WIN+P did the trick. Chose 'extend' and after that it works just by turning off the second monitor. Some Windows genius, I guess. 🆒 Thanks again!

Hi! A very annoying "feature" has cropped up after switching from an Nvidia GPU to an AMD Radeon. I have 2 extended displays in addition to my main monitor that with nVidia used to disable when turned off. Radeon seems to keep them active even when the two monitors are off. So programs will...

I posted a similar question a couple of years ago, when I had otherwise the same setup, but 3000 MHz RAM with Hynix die, which I was told wouldn't OC on a crap B350 board like mine. And it didn't. So now I think I have RAM that is Samsung B-die, which I was told could OC the best. Then again the...

Alrighty! It's got 2x4 GB config, so I guess an upgrade won't make a difference in games the machine's able to run in the first place. That'd explain the huge bump in RDR2 from single digits to 30-40 fps: 8 GB (or 6 since 2 is for Vega) just isn't enough to run the game to begin with. :)

HP Notebook - 14-cm0822no I think the 2500U on laptops, RAM is capped at 2400 MHz and at least in BIOS there's no option to change that. It's got 2x4GB so I'd have to buy 2x8 and change both, it is upgradeable, not soldered if I recall correctly.

Hi! I've been thinking about a RAM upgrade from 8 to 16 GB for a Ryzen 5 2500U HP laptop. My decision purely depends on gaming gains, but in every video I've been able to find it has pretty much zero effect on fps on Vega 8. On the other hand people are saying it can/does give a ~20 % bump on...

Sorted. Thanks guys!
