Thanks I will look into this more. Just an update - I had no problems since last posting until today, the error randomly occurred whilst gaming. Followed by a BSOD about 30 mins later. Turned XMP back off, no issues for the last hour Ram is under warranty so either way I will look to RMA it.

Thanks, have been gaming for a couple of hours now with no issues.

So I had some random issues yesterday which was resolved by clearing the CMOS: https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/unexplained-errors.3844153/ I got my 7800XT back today and put it back into my PC without any issues. After playing WoW for a while I started to get a random error I've never...

Backround: 6 Months ago I built a new PC and I have always had unexplained crashes during gaming every so often. After doing extensive troubleshooting and replacing various parts of the PC, I attempted to RMA my 7800XT but they couldn't identify a fault. Whilst my GPU was away for 7 weeks, I was...

You can see on the GPU bios page what the intended power draw is: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/223953/223953 Target: 75.0W / Limit: 87.0 W (This is the bios it came with) 6 pin model: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/219030/219030 Target: 95.0 W / Limit: 113.0 W I only stumbled...

Sorry I initially linked the wrong one, you got in there before my edit lol.

It's right here: https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N950D5-2GD#kf Funnily enough it was something so simple. The issue turned out to be either a faulty DVI cable or DVI port on the monitor. One of the last things I ended up trying several days later was just getting one of the HDMI...

This particular single fan model of 950 doesn't have a 6 pin slot or require a 6 pin connector

I just purchased an old 2nd hand 4th gen HP ProDesk 600 G1 Tower and I am trying to put an old GTX 950 in it. When I initially plug it in, it cycles 3 times without displaying and then gives me beep indicating it can't detect the GPU. I can then manually power it on and off but it will only...

OS I got directly from Microsoft website onto USB, Games were downloaded via Blizzard, Steam, etc I'll have to reboot later to check the Mobo BIOS version. I have updated it twice since I built the PC, so it might not be the most recent version now, but it has been the most recent version in...

Updated info as requested. Both PSUs were new, same model/brand/supplier. Doing a search of Adrenaline in the event viewer now. (Nothing came up under the System logs, or applications) When I was doing a review of my Kernel 41 errors I couldn't see any reference to Adrenaline or anything...

My question was: I haven't turned on anything in the Adrenaline software (like Super Resolution, etc) and wonder which of the options you guys might recommend that might improve my experience or FPS? I am not chasing the exact performance seen in reviews, I am trying to optimize my PC, and I am...

Lets give you basic example. At 1440P 7700X 20% faster on average than the 13500 in gaming according to hardware unboxed (using like for like ram). On one review system the 7700X was comming up with 240FPS (using 5200 CL36) My 13500 was comming up with 110FPS (using 6000 CL36) Both on Ultra...

Because I looked at reputable reviews, such as hardware unboxed, and did a direct comparison between the CPU I have, and then the CPU being used in the reviews. It's not an assumption, its just basic math.
