I've updated to the latest bios because I have an intel CPU (Sadly)
I've heard that intel failsafe is just there to set all the cpu's on 1.55v so they are stable while gaming, well I never had any problems with my CPU(yet) but I decided to update bios anyway, maybe I've made a mistake.
I...
Hi, I have just got myself an i7-13700k and tried undervolting it, I only know about the offset voltage so I lowered it till the cpu was stable, Earlier it was fetching 1.48~1.5 volts, now around 1.3
Could you look at my bios settings and see if I need to change anything else from your...
Hey there
So I recently upgraded my PC with a new mobo, DDR5 memory and an i7 13700k with a Noctua D15 cooler, and a RTX 3070.
I researched the CPU quite a bit before buying it, so I know it has a reputation for running hot, and I researched the 13700k and D15 combo as well. But some of these...

So I decided it was time to upgrade my cpu cooler because I had a crappy air cooler cooling my i7 13700kf. I was buying ram for another pc and they offered a used NZXT kraken 240mm for cheap and I decided to get it. I...
I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on my new super (mid-range) build!
I have a few ideas, and a few questions to finalise details before I get flying.
I'm thinking this:
Ryzen 9 7900X (maybe Intel 13700k or similar if consensus is it's better for my purposes)
7800XT or 4070 - based on my...
I upgraded my 3700X on 5/30/2023 to a Core i7-13700K, when I benchmarked the system on Cinebench 2023, I was getting 30,000 for a score, now in 2024 I am getting about 9000 in score. Does anyone know or understand why I am seeing this, and know how to resolve the low score? I haven't really...
Hello all, I am building my first gaming PC and would like advice on a choice of CPU. I’ve done some research on the differences between Intel i7-13700k and AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D with gaming vs. productivity, but I am still unsure on which I should choose. I will be doing plenty of gaming...
I've been using this PC for approximately 6 months perfectly well from Jan to June. One day, it failed to POST, so I took it to the store. They diagnosed the issue as a malfunctioning RAM module, replaced it, and the PC booted up fine. It worked perfectly well for the next 6 days, but on the 7th...
Hey there folks,
I'm running into some issues with my newer system.
Built back in April of 2023, I was running fine for a long while and then suddenly started experiencing oddball crashing in my games (Total War Warhammer 3 and World of Warships).
Current specs are
Windows 10 Home version...
Hello! I just received all the components for my new PC and spend some time to build it. However, it doesn't start. The monitor shows no signal message, and I cannot understand what's going wrong.
Here is the configuration:
CPU: Intel core i7 13700k
Motherboard: ASUS Z690-P WI-FI
RAM: Kingston...
Program: Cinebench R23
10minute throttle test, but it starts throttling after a minute only, then it kinda shifts in and out of throttling repeatedly and I was worried to let the full 10 minutes complete, so I stopped it..(is it safe to let it finish? even though its hitting 100c?)...
Hi guys
I am currently using a I7 13700K on my Lian Li 215 Case. Due to Ram clearance My CPU cooler NOCTUA NHD15 CROMAX is mounted up side down. Meaning Fans are pointing towards the Top of the case.
When On idle My temps are 40C. When gaming temps are somewhere in the...
Hello everyone!
My friend and I recently built a PC (since my old one was really old). I had purchased a Ryzen 5900x about 2 years ago but couldn't really do anything due to financial issues. Fast forward last month, my friend finally helped me build it after I purchased all the components...
Hello, my first time posting so I'm sorry if my formatting is bad.

So I am looking to upgrade my CPU to a 13700K and I am wondering what the optimal RAM config is for Intel's 13th gen.
I want to get 32GB of DDR5 RAM so I went with 2x16GB sticks of Corsair Vengeance 5600 MHz RAM but after a bit of googling I realized that these are only Single Rank DIMM's. Do...
After seeing reviews on this cpu it seems to draw a lot of power and now I'm doubting if my choice of cooler is enough. If it's not enough would the normal NH-D15 with two fans be enough? It's mostly for gaming and some photoshop / after effects, will likely try light overclocking but nothing...
