So yesterday my monitor had a couple of fade to blacks out of nowhere, switching the machine off manually seemed to bring it back before it went down and stayed black, even with the machine seeming to post. I tried a different cable, tried it on the TV, still black screen. Moving the cable to...

Thanks this is a great list to work from, I am back sitting on the fence as to building myself or taking a prebuilt, but in either case this is great information and I appreciate you taking the time to put it together.

Thanks for taking the time for such a detailed answer, I really appreciate it :)

up to 144 It's an Asus VG248QE

Sorry is a 1920x1080 actually, was cutting out the default text without even thinking

Hi all, It has been about 6-7 years since I built my current rig, and after the routine of stressing over the system not posting and all the fuss that goes into the building I swore to myself, and more importantly to my wife if I ever did upgrade I would get a prebuild rather than do it myself...

So having had a little poke around, I checked both sticks of ram separately in slot 1, which on my board is red and furthest away from the CPU and both worked. Then however in any combo together of both in red or both in black the system will spin up and then after about 10 second will just shut...

The pin answer was my worse case wanting to hear, last thing I really want to be doing is taking that back up again :( But yeah I guess that might be the answer in the end. Storage is a 250GB SSD and a 4TB Main Power is a EV3A 850G2 Single stick of ram sitting in the 4th slot, so the one...

So about a year ago I decided to replace the thermal paste on the GPU and CPU, all seemed to go fine until booting the system back up, which it would not do. I finally managed to get it working with only a single slot of RAM of my pair in, it didn't matter which one of the pair it was or in...

Have taken out the CMOS battery but that didnt seem to have any effect. I didnt lift the CPU at all, so not sure about bending the pins, dont much fancy taken it back off just yet as I actually have a working machine (all be it with half memory) until I have gone through all my other options!

Hi guys, Recently performed a GPU and CPU thermal paste clean, nothing too dramatic there but then PC would start up and shut down, with a Code 55 error on the MB. Having a look online 55 seems to be a memory error, which plays out with me as it seems fine with a single stick in but will...

I was looking at that, but I was told that PSU wasnt great, so didnt know which way to go!
