    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    Great probably over a year from now for the graphic card. I think my computer is faster due to NVMe. This was the first time I've USB installed windows was it was so much faster than the CD's lol!

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    I just want to thank everyone. This new setup works great and also faster in every way. What noticed is that the focus gx PSU has 10 year warrantee, wow. My old PSU is only 5 years and now I probably need a UPS protection. I'm glad my graphic card works great since those are so $$ now a...

    Question Prime Z590-P getting SM bus controller not installed? Why

    I've downloaded a bunch of drivers from the Asus website and that worked for some reason whereas the disc it came with didn't. Now searching which PCI device is undetected. PCI device error is now magically gone. I think after being able to install the 500 series chipset window was able to...

    Question Prime Z590-P getting SM bus controller not installed? Why

    Due to my 1150 board kicking the bucket, I just bought and installed an Asus prime Z590-P motherboard LGA1200 with the chipset drivers it came with. I'm getting SM Bus not installed and have no idea why it's getting this error. Samsung V-NAND SSD970 EVO 500gb Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2x8...

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    I've uninstalled display driver and still getting the BSOD which should be a display driver issue. I think the mobo is the problem. I've decided to pull the trigger and went with the z590 chip set in the case the gen 11 having faster ssd access which I recall the hard drive speed is what makes...

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    Taking out the graphic card I think it crashes less which confuses me toward a driver issue. It was over 2 times per day vs once per day. It sometimes crashes on idle since I have an startup program with a login screen pop up upon every restart when i just let it run. I think i'm going to run...

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    I think you are correct that it may be a gpu and or chipset driver issue or a failing board. The memtest and hard drive on samsung magician tested out good. My UPS stopped working and kids pull my computer plug a few times and now i'm getting these issue. Because of what happens i just...

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    The sfc scan say "Windows Resource protection did not find any integrity violations". Only hard drive or motherboard being the problem I guess. I was looking at the 10700k or the 10600k to save $100.

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    BSOD happened again running onboard video. Good point i'm getting BSOD vs auto restart from a bad power supply but i see your point. Looks like CPU, mobo, ram, psu, SSD, and windows 10 will be a costly fix. Any advice on chipsets? b460, z490 or z590

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    Thanks for your help! Now I understand what you are saying. Basically, insurance against new hardware. Wow onboard video is horrible. I tweaked the bios to allocate max memory but it still lags in refresh rate and I can see the graphics not as sharp. I may swap this 8gb with the 16gb i've...

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    If it crashes again i'm going for a new mobo,cpu,ram power supply. Why are older 750w bad for today's computers? I was looking at Seasonic FOCUS GX-850 or PX-850. Is the Px worth it for the extra $20? Are the amperage more geared towards systems today or mainly graphic card issue needing a...

    [SOLVED] BSOD on my 2013 build. Time for new mobo,ram and cpu would like to limit to 750w power supply.

    Thanks, i'm not familiar with PSU. Did the plugs changed? What PSU do you recommend for i7-10700 build and what brand of ram is popular now a days? I already swapped ram since I had extras and already ran magician. I forgotten i had integrated graphics! If that fixes the probably that would...

    I lost my regular user id since no more work email and opening a new account. I'm getting BSOD probably from kids shutting off my PC. Tried different ram but it's still getting worst. ssd speed seems ok. It was a 2013 build so i'm looking for advice for best value for dollar in terms of...
