So I used WinDBG for debbuging the dump files: For reference the last lockup today was odd, It happened inmediately after opening radeon software (never had a freeze in a non gaming scenario before) and was running Expo at 5600 instead of 6000. FAULTY_HARDWARE_CORRUPTED_PAGE (12b) This...

I changed platform to AM5 6 months ago (bought Ryzen 7600x, Asrock X670E PG Lightning and 2x16 G.Skill F5-6000J3636F16GX2-TZ5NR) and have issues with random lockups every now and them (not gamebreaking but kinda annoying, want to make sure it´s not hardware related) Minidumps (I had more...

RMA is quite difficult in my country(Argentina) but I could use it as a last resort. The strange thing is that the fan starts working again when I turn off/on my PC(doesn't fix when restarting the system or by increasing fan speed in afterburner) so maybe it is something related with power? I am...

Thank you for your answer but I think you are mistaking my GPU with a GTX 570.

Hello everyone, I am having this problem with the GPU fan close to the I/O occasionally stops spinning while at full load. First it happened 25 days after buying the graphic card, then 4 days later and 2 days after that. The fan seems that it is trying to spin(like 1-2 RPM back and forth) but...

I don't remember forcing it but after looking closer at my mobo I/O, it seems that I plugged the keyboard into the Displayport slot.

As the tittle indicates, I made the stupid mistake of plugging my keyboard into the motherboard HDMI port and some strange things happened. First, the keyboard started becoming unresponsive and after a few minutes windows indicated a power surge on the USB port, then the horror. PC rebooted like...

I know how to change boot order but I thought that you need GPT partitions(mine are MRB) to run with UEFI boot, but if it is that simple good for me. Anyway, I would really appreciate more input about the compatibility issues. Thanks in advance.

I read that you have to format to be able to run UEFI boot mode and my ancient HD 6670 is not compatible with UEFI.

Hello guys, I am going to buy a RX 470 next week and I have some concerns. About the models to choose from, I am between the RX 470 MSI Gaming X and the Sapphire Nitro+. I was leaning towards the second model(it is 10% cheaper in my country) but I heard that the Sapphire card only supports UEFI...

I was mainly concerned about the Motherboard(it's quite old) but now the doubts are gone, thanks to you.

Yeah, I will upgrade the rest of the system later(probably an I5 6500 for CPU ). Just in case, will the GTX 1060 3GB have any problems with my current spec?

Thanks, I was between an EVGA GTX 1060 3GB and the RX(they are about the same price) but I read that the 470 is more future proof(the 1060 seems better in the 1 year horizon)

Hello guys. I'm going to buy a Sapphire RX 470 4GB OC and a Seasonic M12II-620w EVO and I want to know if my system will be able to handle them without any problems. Here is my spec: Gigabyte GA-A55M-DS2 rev 1.0 APU A8 3850 2x4 kingston hyperx 1866 mhz The Motherboard is PCI 2.0 but I don't...
