Just purchased a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, and I'm confused about how many pins it needs to power it fully. I've bought this motherboard that only has an 8-pin. Is that enough? https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/KtcgXL/asus-prime-b650-plus-wifi-atx-am5-motherboard-prime-b650-plus-wifi

I'm upgrading my pc and would like to know if my new AIO will comfortably fit inside without hitting the motherboard heatsinks. I need to mount the watercooler on top of the case so my graphics card can fit properly. I'm awful with measurements and need someone to help me confirm that everything...

Ill make sure to update the bios just in case.

I purchased my last cpu from the same place and ive had it for years with no issues whatsoever, but it was an 11th gen cpu. I've just found out about the issues with 13th and 14th gen processors, so i feel like a fool for buying one second hand considering all the problems they have.

Thank you !

Thanks for the advice, but there's been a bit of a recent development, i'm getting frequent blue screens now with the error message kernel power 41, any idea what thats about?

Yeah I think I had a few things open in the background while using the benchmark, but thank you for the reply, I'm going to get a 650w power supply and see if that helps.

I recently upgraded to an RTX 2070 super and I'm getting horrible frame drops in every single game. I've tried reinstalling my drivers using DDU and have reinstalled windows, i have no idea what's causing this issue. Here's my system specifications and user benchmark Intel(R) Core(TM)...
