Hello im looking to buy a motherboard for my 5950x. Ill will go probably with B550 chipset, probably with: Asus TUF GAMING B550-PLUS WIFI II 90MB19U0-M0EAY0 This one has WIFI integrated on the motherboard itself... I have never had it (or used WIFI on PC really), i have some wifi router i...

Hello I have 5950x and Im looking for a board for this CPU. I was going to buy Gigabyte X570S UD but its no longer in the shops (at least in my country), sadly. I liked the 3x m.2 slots there (ALL PCIe 4.0 x4 (!)) (not PCIe 3.0)... And its cheap price. Now my only contender among x570 boards is...

Hello In Short: Do I really have to do a COMPLETE format of a drive and a clean install of windows and all other programs again when changing the motherboard (and therefore ---> format the disk, losing all data, programs, settings, drivers, etc.)? Or not? In more detail: I currently have...

thanks I dont have any experience with memtest... is there only 1 test? Or are there more various tests (which is the case i think)...? Which one should i run in particular (in my case - wanna test compatability of ram), thank you

Hello So i currently have 2*16 GB (32 GB) RAM Module - Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x16GB DDR4 3200 MHz CL16, DIMM, 1.35V (CMK32GX4M2E3200C16): https://www.newegg.com/corsair-32gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820236541 Im planning a new PC build (most likely with motherboard: Gigabyte X570S UD (with...

Also in addition i would like to ask, if i may :-): 1) I read that the audio codec of the motherboard is not really that good at all (its Realtek 887)... But if im NOT an audiophile ( my headset costs like 10 USD :-) )... Will I really notice a difference (while gaming or listening to music or...

uff... well you guys are outliers :)... in other places in the internet i was told its ok (...?)... Again.. im not planning to overclock (!). Is it really that big of a problem? What if i place those small fan coolers on the VRMs...? also a "couple of thousands points" lower cinebench score...

Hello Im looking to buy a mainboard for my 5950x CPU. I like the Gigabyte X570S and/or X570S GAMING X (they should be the same boards basically). I like them because of cheap price (in my country) and 3 x M.2 slots (all at full speed (!!) - PCIe 4.0 x4 (at least they say so on their website...

Hi In 2023 which one is (are) the best solutions to convert english speech to english text... Either from "live" recording or via saved audio file. Online solutions are ok too, but i would probably prefer some "offline" solutions (in order to have "safety" that my speech/text is not going...

Hi gentlemen I have an old board with an X370 chipset, Ryzen 1700 in it (the first generation). I have bought and have sitting here for about a month (in a drawer) a new CPU that should go into this board after the bios upgrade - 5950x. I have a scythe ninja 4 cooler. I have built about 3 pc's...

I was recommended elsewhere to do a full format under windows to see if these issues wont resolve themselves (there is a chance that they might) and than i could still use the drive (but only for nonessential data/as an additional backup drive for example etc). what do you think abotu this (full...

Failed 8,3 Years old WD Red drive 3TB (EFRX) - what now...? So couple of weeks/months ago one of my HDDs- WD Red 3TB - EFRX - 8,3 Years old (!) failed on me. I had backups and was still able to get vast majority of the data directly from the drive. So data-wise im ok. My questions is other...

thanks, but are ALL drives as annoying and loud and have as frequent PWL intervals as this one...? I think this is a rather exception, and there must be quiter drives...? On some other forum, someone said he got like 3 of the same drives (HC 510 10 TB) and NONE of them do this sound (!)... You...

I bought a new HDD - Ultrastar HC510 10TB (Helium one). Its quite noisy (seek, read, write etc )... And as it seems, in addition to this, I think it has that annoying "feature" noise ("sound") of "click" every 5 seconds (!!) - PWL (protective wear leveling). At least thats what I think it is...
