Hello all, I am having some issues with my system. I tried applying a basic overclock on a Ryzen 7 1700 (from 3000 to 3200 MHz on auto voltage) and the system will not post. The q-code displays a 07 code. The dram light is lit, meaning there might be a problem in that department. However...

ok, this is absolutely pathetic that graphics cards are double and even triple the cost (for the same cards) as last year. I am tempted to just ignore people and use integrated graphics with an intel. All I need it for is video editing. If I just use integrated, won't it still work, but just...

Like, do... do the bits match up? I understand thermal mass against thermal mass, held together by paste, that'll all be cool. But if the things hanging sideways, I'd wanna make damn sure it's clipped on solid. That's more my question here. Do the clips on an LGA 1155 socket match up with the...
