    Question How do I undervolt CPU and iGPU with Universal X86 Utility?

    I've always been an Intel guy so I know just how to undervolt with ThrottleStop. I wanted to undervolt my dad's laptop to make it run cooler, but sadly found out that I can't use ThrottleStop with AMD. After some research I've decided to go with Universal X86 Utility, but I can't find any decent...

    Question Do I need ATX3 for a 6800XT GPU?

    Are there any benefits or is it irrelevant in this case? CPU is i5 9400f. I would get a Corsair RM850X 2021 if ATX3 is not a big deal. If it is important, then I'd go with Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 850W ATX v3.0. Any thoughts on that? Btw, I'm not planning on changing this GPU for a looong...

    Question Is the RM850X (2021) the right PSU for my needs?

    The thing is, my CPU doesn't use more than 30W and my GPU doesn't use more than 240W no matter what game I've played so far. And I've played and monitored a lot in the past year. It's probably cuz I don't play on ultra settings and I always play 60fps. Since my GPU is a RX6800XT I know I need a...

    Question Which of these PSU should I pick?

    The first 3 are all somewhere around 210€ (5€ more or less). The last one is 265€. I really don't care about the 2 years warranty extra, cuz I doubt I'll be using the same build for 10+ years. But judging by what you've said, I can't really go wrong. I'll take look at some reviews tonight at...

    Question Which of these PSU should I pick?

    Cool, thanks man! Btw, is it important what motherboard I have? Like, are there any compatibility issues between the PSU and different motherboards?

    Question Which of these PSU should I pick?

    I went cheap on my last PSU and it died after 18 months. So I decided to go for a decent one this time. I'm limited to these here cuz my old one still had varanty and I have to pick one of these from the same store in order to get the refund. ASUS 850W ROG-STRIX-850G, Black, Full modular, 80...

    Question How much Watt (PSU) do I need for this build?

    Oh, ok... Thanks man, I didn't know that! I'm actually slowly thinking about selling this whole damn thing and looking for another hobby. I've put over 1000€ (plus 800€ for a big 4k TV) into this box and it now it doesn't turn on anymore. I don't care if it's just the PSU, it' always gonna be...

    Question How much Watt (PSU) do I need for this build?

    I use MS Afterburner to track my wattage. Sometimes I leave it on for the whole gaming session and I've never seen a number bigger that 220W no matter what was going on in any game. If you're implying that the GPU can suddenly peak from 220W to like 700W without Afterburner noticing it, then I...

    Question How much Watt (PSU) do I need for this build?

    My PSU died today. It was a 850W PSU from Seasonic. I got a 850W one cuz that's what everybody recommended me. But it turned out to be an overkill. I have a i5 9400f which ran at 30W maximum and a RX 6800 XT 16 GB which never got past 220W maximum while I was gaming even demanding open world...

    Question "Moving" installed games from one Drive to another

    I know it's 2024, but I've been installing my games on a HDD till now. I never cared about longer loading times, but recently I realized that in newer games the in-game textures also load slower. So I bought and installed a 1TB SSD. Now, I got like 10 games on my HDD where I don't wanna lose...

    Question CPU and Graphics Card Decision help

    Cool, I think you'll like it then. Also, don't forget to look at some YouTube videos that show you how to configure the settings in the GPU control panel (called Adrenalin) for best performance. For example, if you don't need more than 60fps in your games, just turn on Radeon Chill (it tells...

    Question What's a good GPU for my System?

    I though you said the 2060S was 170$ and the 3060 was 200$. But even 230$ is cool if you can afford it. The 3060 is also 2 years "younger" then the 2060S, and since you're buying a used one, that's also a plus for the 3060 imo. Might wanna clean the fans (if needed) and change the thermal paste...

    Question CPU and Graphics Card Decision help

    I was Team Nvidia for 20 years. Bought a 6800 XT a couple of months ago and boy oh boy, I don't think I'm ever going back to Nvidia. Great price, great performance. And waaay better control panel imo. Got mine from Sapphire Nitro+, I'm really happy with it. Btw I'm playing on 4k, 60fps, high...
