    [SOLVED] Anyone else having stability issues with 5600X and ASUS TUF B550M-PLUS(WI_FI)?

    Hi guys, I solved the iussue (truly a face palm moment). I had mistakenly read the latest BIOS version from the ASUS website as 1004 but it's actually 1401. The version I had installed on my mobo (fresh out the box) was 1004 and is from way back in August before they added 5000 series support...

    [SOLVED] Anyone else having stability issues with 5600X and ASUS TUF B550M-PLUS(WI_FI)?

    [SOLVED] Why is peak power consumption never considered for GPUs?

    Thanks for the swift responses. From how you've answered, I'd say my assumptions about NVIDIA's power requirements were correct and that I might as well "level-up" my EPS. Something I'd like to point out though, which is one of the main reasons I asked my original question, is that've used the...

    [SOLVED] Why is peak power consumption never considered for GPUs?

    I'm about to upgrade my PC, ready for either the RTX 3070 / 3080, but am unsure about what PSU wattage I require. I'm curious as to what kind of head room to go for but notice that nobody really seems to mention peak power consumption of a GPU (which can be a substantial increase in comparison...
