Hello good morning! I have a dilemma and I would like you to help me. I currently have an i7 4790k with a 1080ti. I always play at 1080p on a 144hz monitor. I don't play much but when I do I like everything to run smoothly. I haven't played PUBG for a while and it seems they touched...

Hello everyone, I'd very much like to get some feedback from you knowledgeable folks. My CPU is running too hot and throttling. My goal here would be to stabilize my system and get my CPU to run with as good a temp as it is realistically possible with my current hardware. From there, I'd very...

Hello everyone! I'm in a bit of a bind and trying to find a new computer case to transfer my current PC into. The catch is that I need the computer case to be no more than 17" or 431.8mm tall or it wont fit in my space. I've done some digging and found this question posted and answered a few...

Hi all, I am seeking some assistance from the tom's Hardware collective please to stop me going insane! First I guess the info of the system: Windows 10 Pro, build 19044 (up to date) I9 9900K, not overclocked - bios all default settings / auto 2x8GB Corsair DDR4 2132 w/XMP @ 3596 - non XMP...

I thought my Titan XP was dying, so I bought another used one bc it's what I could get. I've since found out mine is fine and so decided to run SLI. However, my Maximus X Formula (9900K, BIOS 2701) will not [] detect both cards simultaneously. Both work fine on each of the two slots on their...

I unknowingly put the processor on the my mobo (MSI Z390 Gaming Pro Carbon AC) socket with bent pins. One of the pins got stuck on my processor’s land pad due to pressure. After noticing, I actually removed the pin from the land pads but the gold plate was also unfortunately chipped off (not...

Hey, i have a 9900k with a corsair h100i on noctua fans running at 600rpm at idle the system is extremely quiet which i like but the idle temps are questionable i get 36-40c sometimes it randomly spikes to 50c for a split second then drops back down. load temperatures max out at about 75c and it...

I average around 120-130fps where ive seen people get 170-200fps on Warzone. Any advice? Getting the same FPS as my 2080ti i had.

Hey folks. I'll get straight to the point. The PC I use is only for gaming and media consumption. At the moment I only play one game regularly - CoD Warzone at 1080p 144hz. Rarely I play the free games that Epic Games store gives out or titles like Among Us, Fall Guys which are fun to play with...

I'm picking a cooler for a 9900k. Planning on not only OC'ing it to 5 ghz on all cores, but also want to keep using the cooler when I upgrade to intel's 12th gen i9 cpu. My picks are either the NH-D15, the NH-U12A, the NH-U12s, and the NH-U14s. I've looked at every comparison benchmarks I could...

so based on the benchmarks by gamers nexus, the 9900k at stock versus a 5ghz overclock makes almost no difference in gaming, maybe 3-5 fps in certain games. So i decided to not overclock it, because why draw the extra power and heat for no benefit in gaming? My question is - what cooler would...

I was on a meet reunion when this BSOD appeared, then I checked my minidump file and got this: ||1:7: kd> !analyze -v *** * Bugcheck Analysis * * *** REFERENCE_BY_POINTER (18) Arguments: Arg1: 0000000000000000, Object type of the object whose reference count...

Good morning guys, I've attempted to manually oc my 9900k to 5.0ghz following one of the multiple guides you can find online. I'm using a z390 aorus pro as a mobo and a noctua nh-d15s for the cpu cooling. After several failed attempts even at high voltages, I found out stability with vcore at...

I have a i9 9900k on a MSI MPG Z390 Gaming Pro using a CoolerMaster MA610P air cooler. At a 5GHz overclock my CPU is hitting 95C on several cores, and an average of 90C under 100% all core load. General use I'm reaching temps up to 88C. I tried setting my motherboard CPU to full default and...

I recently got a new case and had to move everything over and everything is working fine but one concern is the CPU Temp My i9-9900k is oc to 5ghz and in my old case highest I would see it go is 69c max. In this new case while running Watch Dogs Legion to test it I was getting Temps up to...

Hello! I recently upgraded my machine with a 9900k. I have an ASUS PRIME z390 A mobo. I have noticed that when I run r20 at the stock setting for my cpu and my motherboard I get a score of around 42-4400. Since that seemed low to me I tried messing around with the BIOS and windows settings a...

My PC is on tech service and they are willing to change a Bad rog strix z390e (which is overheating). My best choice here is the aorus one, as I was concerned about temperatures going high on the maximus hero, but I dont like their RGB Fusion 2.0, is so dissapointing, I also have a lot of RGB...

Ever since my father built his rig coming from a old Sandy Bridge 2600k it has been a stellar system with not a single crash. With one click I got all cores to 5Ghz with Easy Tune but memory shows at 2133Mhz. So I went to BIOS and set X.M.P to no avail. Then I went to BIOS and set the voltage...

Hi. I am kindda noob in CPU overclocking so I face a problem. I bought a Core i9 9900k last week ( my motherboard is ASUS Z390-A Prime) and I change SVID setting to Best Case Scenario. I Know it gives CPU lower voltage. (Currect Me if i am wrong) when SVID set to Best Case Scenario the Windows...

Hello guys. I know almost nothing about hardware so one of my friends built a PC for himself and I just want to copy it for myself. But I wanted to ask you about your ideas and some questions about the parts. First of all I want to show you the system. Then I will explain the details and ask...

I’ve recently got an overclocked PC with an i9 9900 running all cores at 4.9 with a H100x AIO. I haven’t had any problems with stability or games when using it. After a crash in one game (turns out its just a regular crash, nothing more) I decided to start running some stress tests on the PC...

I'd mainly use my PC for content creation (Premiere Pro, Photoshop) and would like to know your opinion. Almost all of the articles are from the 3900x's launch, but I guess there have been improvements since then in drivers and bios. In my country the 3900x is 100$ cheaper than the 9900k, and...

Hi Everybody! I just got a 9900k from my brother for my birthday and I'm going to upgrade my i7 3820 processor. Of course I already bought everything else that i require, so in terms of compatibility and cooling, I think I'm ok. What should i expect? Is there anything I should do to get the most...

In mid-January I overclocked my 9900K to 5.0GHz and undervolted until it was ideal. I tested it with UserBenchmark several times and got very consistent results every time: A couple days ago I decided to clean-install Windows (I didn't have to) and half-expected to get improved results. So I...

Haven’t gotten that many responses in my other post, so I’m just hoping to hear opinions on the BEST options for cooingl a 10920x CPU. I know they’re a new chip, so there isn’t that much info on them yet, but just pretend like it’s just as hot, or even a little hotter than a 9900k. I’m between...

Hi there everybody! I’ll try to keep this short and sweet, so I’ll ask my question and then explain everything after that. My question is, which CPU would you buy for a 90% gaming usage computer that I don’t plan on updating (CPU/MOBO wise) for 5-6 years? I’m stuck between the i9 9900k and the...
