    [SOLVED] Intel Core i9 processor after 10 seconds of stress test dramatically resets frequency and temperature

    It's still likely a thermal or power throttle issue, sorry. Based on the board and cooler methinks a 9900k was a bit of an ambitious idea on your part.

    [SOLVED] bought rx580 (4GB) but want 8gb

    You need an i5 and a 2x8 kit of RAM more than you do 4 more gigs of VRAM. Although I think Rust can use up to 6 gigs total on 1080p with the graphics up. Rust eats system memory for breakfast so more ram, more cpu, and if that doesn't see huge gains you have problems elsewhere

    AMD A10-7860k underperforming

    Yea i had a similar issue on the Resident Evil Remaster. Some in-game setting had a 60 fps, 30 fps, then "variable" frame cap. Trying to force 60fps at 1080p was getting me 20 fps. Variable let it fluctuate between 42-45 and ran waaaay better.

    AMD Athlon X4 845 with Nvidia or AMD Card?

    Late. But, for future reference for other curious minds, the 845 wont handle anything past a GTX 950, 960 will slightly bottleneck depending on the game, but nothing horrendous. If you go with AMD, youve got the R370 and 380. The 380X or RX460 will also be held back slightly depending on the game

    Why am I not seeing performance improvement with AMD Dual Graphics?

    No, it's not pointless, but you do have to temper your expections. You should be seeing a 10-15 FPS increase if the games youre playing support it. I've tried finding a list, and havent...albeit just a few times as I just built this LANbox about a month ago. Most I've found has been small lists...

    OEM Windows transferred motherboards seamlessly?

    So I built a new home computer for a family member. Re-purposed a few things from the HP it was replacing, among those things was the mechanical HDD with the OS installed on it (W10). My intent was to install a 120 gb SSD into the new computer as a boot drive, back up and format the HDD for use...

    Will I need to buy Windows 10 if i reuse a hard drive on a new motherboard

    I also took a HDD from a retail HP and installed it into a computer I just built with a second motherboard...and it booted W10 directly up on the first try...Just straight to my password screen. Id expected, as I assume this is an OEM version of Windows, that I'd have to buy another copy. I knew...

    Why MSI Click Bios 5 not showing my bootable kali linux usb device?

    I also am having this issue on Click 5 with a Krait Gaming 3x mobo. The ports work...using the Board Explorer feature shows that a "Sandisk Cruzer 4gb" is in the port. Boot priority is set to UEFI USB. Tried with strictly UEFI, AND Legacy/UEFI...secure boot off...but the only thing that posts in...
