    Question Configuration advice before I buy a new Lenovo laptop ?

    Thanks Thanks @Aeacus! Yeah I think the 32gb RAM would be best for my use case. I don't think I'll be doing heavy gaming when I'm travelling anyway. I have another quick question if you don't mind me asking. I'm not too familiar with eGPU's and port capabilities. On the spec sheet, it says...

    Question Configuration advice before I buy a new Lenovo laptop ?

    Hello everyone! I'm in the market for a new laptop and I'm eyeing the Lenovo Ideapad Pro 5 Gen 9 (14in). I'm torn between getting the dedicated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 or sticking with the integrated AMD Radeon 780M. Also, I'm not sure if upgrading the RAM is worth the extra cost for what I...

    Question RX580 + Ryzen 5 2600 Upgrade Path 2023

    Thanks! I'm planning to buy the GPU and CPU a couple of 3-4 months apart just to manage expenses. Which one would you recommend I upgrade first? I have the Asus Prime AP201 - it's pretty spacious inside considering its overall size with good airflow. Would you have any recommendations for RAM...

    Question RX580 + Ryzen 5 2600 Upgrade Path 2023

    Thanks! The RX 6700 XT 12g is roughly 80% more expensive where I am, a bit over my budget. I think going from a 4gb card to 8gb should be good for me, at least for a couple of years :) I play a pretty mixed bag of games - the AC series, TotalWar , Mount&Blade. My setup is just struggling with...

    Question RX580 + Ryzen 5 2600 Upgrade Path 2023

    Hello, I'm looking to upgrade my PC this year. I've been eyeing the Power Color Fighter RX 7600 8gb for my GPU. Is the Ryzen 5 5600 a good pair for this? Would you guys have other recommendations ? This is my current setup. Mobo: MSI B450 Mortar Max RAM: 2x 8gb 3000Mhz DDR4 CPU: Ryzen 5 2600...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 5 2600 + RX 580 upgrade path 2022

    Thanks for the suggestions! Would I be able to get away with upgrading to the RX 6600 without upgrading the CPU for a while?

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 5 2600 + RX 580 upgrade path 2022

    Thanks for responding! The case wouldn't really be that big of a priority, I'm okay with settling on what fits the components that I'll have at that point. I'm based in the Philippines, my budget would probably be around USD 600-700 for the GPU/CPU and mobo.

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 5 2600 + RX 580 upgrade path 2022

    Thanks for the quick response and for the tips! i think the motherboard upgrade would be at the backend. I'm not too particular about the case as well, so I think the components would be the priority and I'll just choose the case that'd fit what I have at that point. I'm using a 1TB m.2 SSD for...

    [SOLVED] Ryzen 5 2600 + RX 580 upgrade path 2022

    I'm looking to slowly upgrade my PC over the next year, so I don't mind doing it one component at a time. My goal is to convert to an ITX build (maybe in an SSUPD Meshlicious or NZXT H1 V2) so I'm sure I'll have to go replace the Mobo at one point. I plan to do moderate gaming and some light...

    [SOLVED] Laptop crashed when migrating data to new SSD

    Hey guys, I got it to finally to work. @USAFRet was right. The disk wasn't properly cleaned. I followed this, which adds a couple more steps to Skynetrising's instructions. Was able to boot it properly and completed the data migration. Laptop now working with the new SSD. Thanks for all the help...

    [SOLVED] Laptop crashed when migrating data to new SSD

    I tried it again, I followed SkyNetRising's method. But still doesn't boot properly. Is there another way to clean the disk?

    [SOLVED] Laptop crashed when migrating data to new SSD

    Yup, it's the same in UEFI. I've also cleaned the disk like SkyNetRising suggested.

    [SOLVED] Laptop crashed when migrating data to new SSD

    Thanks, I put the SSD back in, but still boots to Windows automatic repair. Only boots normally when I only have the HDD in there

    [SOLVED] Laptop crashed when migrating data to new SSD

    Thanks for the suggestion. I tried this, and was able to clean the SSD, but when I restarted it still boots to Windows automatic repair. The SSD is listed as Disk 0, does that have to do with something?
