    Question PC won't start after motherboard swap

    Turns out the BIOS clear wasn't working but that's what it took. After BIOS clear, I updated the BIOS and reinstalled windows. Works fine after that.

    Question PC won't start after motherboard swap

    Thanks for replying! Yes, the original secondary PC boot drive is the same drive being used. I could format it on my main PC and do a clean windows install with a flash drive, I'll let you know the results after that happens. I suppose I thought it would at least boot my pc and fail in POST...

    [SOLVED] Maximum RAM ROG-STRIX B-450F Gaming

    I have tried overclocking but my CPU is unstable at 4.1Ghz and crashes at 4.2Ghz. It doesn't seem to get too hot though, maybe it's the power? I don't think I've tried overclocking again with the 650Watt PSU, I tried this all on my old 550Watt Update: I'm going to try overclocking now. Also...

    [SOLVED] Maximum RAM ROG-STRIX B-450F Gaming

    I see, I have a 2700x as well. I also have Gskill 3200Mhz RAM however mine is CL16. Here's my big issue that I'm trying to solve. I think I have a great computer. I camped outside of a Microcenter for 17 hours to get a 3070 but for some reason my fps is below average for all the games I play...

    [SOLVED] Maximum RAM ROG-STRIX B-450F Gaming

    Hello, I want to get a straight answer for a memory question. I want to upgrade my ram once and I don't want to for a while, so I'm thinking of getting 4400Mhz modules (probably 4266Mhz to be honest) however I am finding different 'maximum' speeds for RAM on my motherboard model. For example, at...

    [SOLVED] Motherboard powered, I/O only works for a second

    It worked! It booted and we’re running diagnostics right now. I just plugged in the data and power cables again.

    [SOLVED] Motherboard powered, I/O only works for a second

    So we don’t have anything plugged into the cpu fan port, I’ll try to disable the error from bios. Also, yes, we’re trying to transplant another windows system through the ssd.

    [SOLVED] Motherboard powered, I/O only works for a second

    Okay turns out I didn’t power the CPU, I didn’t connect the eight pin. That’s my fault that was pretty stupid. Another error we’re having though is with the boot process. When the hard drive and ssd are both plugged in, the pc cannot detect any bootable devices. When we have just the ssd plugged...
