Hi. In this thread, I talked about my need to replace my faulty PSU. Next month I'm going to be taking a trip to Germany and will order a new PSU through a friend there as I live in Africa. I'll probably be ordering the Thermaltake BM3 750W Bronze PSU at €70 (the 650W was recommended by --SID--...

My GPU is blocking my SATA ports and my ram has problems, I want to fix these issues by buying a new motherboard and ram but with the presence of AM5 it makes me question whether it would be worth it at all. Sure it's cheaper to just buy new parts as opposed to upgrading to AM5 but I feel like...

So i have a small problem... i have 2 x16GB Kingston Fury Beast RAM. When i connect them to my regular asus b450m v2 mobo they both work normally but when i put them in my mini itx mbo (chinese from aliexpress jginyue b450i) the RGB isn't working, but when i have only one RAM stick installed...

Hello, Lately, I’ve noticed that everything on my computer lags more, and my CPU is running at 100%, but the temperature is only around 42°C. Today, I decided to overclock it to 4GHz, set the voltage to about 1.35V, and ran Cinebench. My Ryzen 3 1200 achieved a score of 223, which is strange...

Hello all, I am at a complete lost. Spent hours on this and have been worried. So I upgraded my mobo and cpu to a ASUS ROG Strix B550-A mobo and Ryzen 7 5700x3D. Seated everything in and turned on and all fans were running and RGB lights on my GPU bracket and AIO are on but mobo lights were...

I have relocated my AM4 setup to my living room SFF PC and now my current ATX case and fans are vacant. I plan to go AM5 platform and is undecided on which motherboard option is best for me.

Hey guys, I’m planning on upgrading my broken PC. What happened? In short: stability issues for several months and now no boot/blue screen “PC needs to be repaired“. I have tested every component except for the CPU and MoBo in my brothers computer. They all worked perfectly fine. I guess the...

I'm looking for the best air cooler (not AIO/liquid because I'm scared I'll mess up and waste a hundred or so dollars) for the Ryzen 9 5950X that will fit inside the Montech X3 Mesh ATX Mid Tower Case. Also, my motherboard is the B450M K (rev. 1.0) from Gigabyte.

So I overheard that some motherboards have m.2 slots on the back of the board for easier access. I have a case that has a hole in the back for this purpose it seems. I'm wondering what AM4/PCIe4.0 compatible boards have this connectivity feature since I'm having trouble tracking one down. Any...

Hi all, last weekend I upgraded my GPU from a 1070 (Gigabyte Wind Force OC) to 6800xt (PowerColor Red Dragon) and my PSU from 550W to 750W. I also bought myself an M.2 (Crucial P3 1TB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 x4) drive as I required more storage and hadn't used either slot on my motherboard (Gigabyte...

I currently have a Ryzen 7 3700X and a Sapphire 7900 XTX Nitro GPU. I am aware that this CPU can be a bottleneck to this GPUs performance and wonder if anyone could suggest a Ryzen upgrade from my current CPU. I don't want to have to change my MOBO so I would assume a 5000 series would be my...

[Moderator edit to break up one continuous paragraph of text.] I've read somewhere on the internet that even if someone manages to repair a CPU's pin, that it will never ever match the feel and performance of a CPU's pin that has never been touched or damaged. And I believe this could be true...

Hello! I am planning on upgrading my current 2600x to either a 5700x or a 5800x3d. The total price difference from me would be around 160 USD. I will use it together with a 3060 Ti and play on 1440p. Do you believe that this additional cost would be worth it? The main benefit I see is that the...

I noticed on your CPU page that you have the 7800x3D listed as an AM4 CPU. It's actually on the AM5 platform. Might wanna correct that before some poor sap sees it and gets the wrong CPU.

So, I recently purchased a Deepcool AS500 Plus for my new build. I'm using the AM4 socket on a Gigabyte x570s Aorus Elite AX (Rev 1.1) Mobo. The problem came when I went to mount the cooler and the bracket is getting blocked by the VRM heatsink. It's barely there, like we're talking less than a...
