I have the latest chipset & usb drivers from asus official motherboard page, also latest bios which currently is 1203. SSD is using latest firmware as per samsung magician. have'nt checked if there is a firmware for ugreen enclosure, will look out for it. idle temps is around 31, according to...

Thread title, so i moved my Samsung 870 QVO 4TB from sata to external USB 3.2 10 Gbps enclosure. I am using USB 4.0 cable and connecting it to a USB 4.0 40 Gbps port into my Asus Rog Strix X870e-e Gaming wifi motherboard so i know my PC port or cable isn't a bottleneck. I am using Ugreen 10gbps...

Update for anyone interested in the future. Ever since i re-enabled Windows Paging file i haven't got any BSOD or crash in about a month now. Daily heavy PC usage around 8-10 hours with mixed workload like gaming and video encoding. So yeah it doesn't matter how much RAM you have and if you are...

SSD is 1.62 TB free, as i said there's only OS and few essential programs like office/steam/vlc etc. I tried looking into detail and according to event viewer, Source was Kernel-Power with keyword (70368744177664),(2). As usual googling doesn't provide any definite answer as reasons could me...

So here's the story, i build a new PC end of november and got 128 GB RAM (not because i needed but because i could). A week ago i checked my new ssd health Samsung 990 Pro 2 TB and it was already on 3 TB written even though i use a competely saperate drive for my data and online downloads. I...

I checked BIOS and manually disabled PBO2, it was on Auto. I ran CPU-Z benchmark and spitted out 828 single core and 8760 multicore result which is a bit higher then normal so i guess Asus board is doing some tweaking in the background by default. I ran 3 tests average and all gave me over 800...

Hi folks, I built a system a couple weeks ago using a Ryzen 9800X3D on an Asus Strix x870E-E motherboard. Coming from a Ryzen 3900X its a HUGE improvement in FPS even when playing at 4K with a 7900 XTX GPU. I saw some videos (gamersnexus & hardwareunboxed) to be exact about how asus loves to...

I am thinking of buying an ASRock X870E Taichi motherboard but i would have to use the other PCIe slot for another expansion card which would mean running my GPU to at x8. I am wondering if this going to mean a significant performance loss for my GPU, if any? The ASRock X870E Taichi Lite is...

Sucks, guess MSI carbon it is then, i would have liked to get Asrock taichi lite which is $100 cheaper and i am already running x570 asrock setup and quite happy with it. Its just my Ryzen 3900x is quite old now and warrants an update.

I obviously asked because i have a need for more then 6 sata ports. I have tons of 8 TB and 16 TB hdds connected directly into my pc for my video editing purposes that contains around couple decades of data which is backed into my NAS. I am currently on an ASRock x570 Creator which natively...

I want to buy this mobo with 9800X3D but if i use my 7900 XTX in primary pcie slot and a 4 port SATA expansion card x1 or x4 will my gpu run in x8 mode or x16? I am under assumption it will run at x8. And what about MSI MPG X870E carbon wifi? It has 3 PCIE slots while the third slot is powered...

Hi, so i have a Samsung 50" 4K Smart TV in my room but it doesn't have built-in bluetooth capability. If i add any bluetooth 5.0 adapter to the tv's usb port will i then be able to stream audio to my Galaxy Buds 2 Pro or do i need some kind of specific bluetooth adapter for this functionality...

I am a video editor and i have bunch of 8TB and 4TB drives in my PC. I am looking to upgrade to at least 2x 16TB+ drives for archival purposes. That is, write to the drive and then occasionally reads from it but when i need to edit something then have to move like 100GB of raw unedited footage...

Is Prime95 still reliable for stress testing? I ran a blend test on all cores and left, came back after an hour and saw temps are only 58C with CPU drawing only 38W power in Ryzen Master. That surely can't be right? But CPU cores are all maxed out. Am i wasting time in prime95? I was thinking of...

I have been searching through my bios settings and found this: According to the description Power saving features for idle cores remain active but HWinfo still reports static voltage and frequency so obviously its not working. I did find pstate settings but i would rather not get into it...
