Thank you, I will try to make sense of the spec sheets when upgrading in the future.

Gigabyte B460 HD3 https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B460-HD3-rev-10#kf I was informed that I should make sure it has enough PCIe lanes, however I am not knowledgeable enough to understand what all of this means. W10 Home I5 10400f 16 Gigs 2666 DRAM RX 6700 non Xt Thanks in advance!

I figured this might help some who are looking to uprade to a more modern low-mid range priced gpu. This card is running every single game I own @ 75 hz ultra everything with no fps dips at all, and it's doing it at 60% of the temps my RX 580 8 gig was getting whileusing low-medium settings...

I swapped in the new card again to take a look at GPU z per your suggestions. The drivers installed properly and the card is working now. The only thing I did different this time was to be sure without a doubt I reseated the card, and also swapped the 2x 6+2 power connectors (daisy chained)...

PSU is perhaps 8 years old, using 2x 6+2 connectors for the 6700 I can install the 6700 again and look at gpu z soon(ish) when i have the time.

Swapped from an RX 580 It will flicker a couple times, then black screen and a hard reset is required after that. Display Adapter shows (Code 43) after restart. Fully updated W10 home Safe Mode DDU display driver uninstall Attempted install of latest Adrenaline package but this always...

First things first, I'm not 100% sure where to post this as it involves GPU, CPU and Motherboard... please bear with me. GPU is a AMD RX580 CPU is a Intel 10400f My Mobo has a BIOS update that added Resizable BAR. Can I make use of this feature with the components I have?

OK thank you. I appreciate your help

Yeah I'm fully aware I need to upgrade my cooling solution. What I don't understand is why does it take closing the application after the downloads are completed return things to normal? I can have all gaming launchers open, steam, origin, ubi, epic and multiple youtube tabs open and things...

I have installed new components along with a fresh installation of W10 and everything is running fine, all except this small problem. Over the last couple of days I have been installing my games across various platforms such as Steam, UBI, Origin etc. and my cpu seems to stay under load even...

Thank you. Would the proper way to do this be saving my Documents, then formatting my storage devices, followed then by hardware installation and a fresh OS install?

I am going to install a new mobo, cpu and RAM. Upon installation of said hardware, will my mostly new PC recognize my OS (W10 OEM) and will all my data and storage devices be intact?

@ renz496, i was thinking this as well but i still had hope that it could be done somehow. i too am going through some older titles that benefited immensely with nvidias AO options. thank you for the response.

@ omegadoom, yes i have latest adrenalin software but what is the overlay you are talking about?

With my old Nvidia card I could enable AO through Nvidia Control Panel for most games, but I can not find this setting anywhere for the AMD card I just purchased.
