I'm relatively new to PC building, but this is my forth build so far.
I have two RAM kits, one in my personal rig that works fine, 2x8GB Crucial DDR4-3200 CL16; the other is a 2x16GB kit, also Crucial, DDR4-3200 CL22. The RAM is brand new, the motherboard isn't, but is working fine with my RAM...

Pre info: My PC locked up a couple months ago and I forced a shutdown and turned it back on. When I did, I was greeted with a black screen that said “press any key to boot from cd or dvd…” I found it weird and just turned my PC off and on again. Magically the issue went away and it booted...
Hi!
I just bought some new RAM, Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2666MHz 16gb (2x8gb). I originally had 8gbs, so it was time for an upgrade. When they arrived, I took out the old RAM and set in the new ones with no issue. However, when I booted up the system, it crashed shortly after with a...

Hi,
I'm having trouble with an MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk where the EZ Debug LED lights up solid red on the DRAM. The RGB lights up and the fans begin to spin, but there is no display output.
I have validated that the CPU, RAM, and PSU work perfectly on another motherboard, and there are no visible...

Hello everyone!
I have been having an issue with a new PC build. It will lock up and show a yellow DRAM light on the motherboard. I can not use the power button to shutdown and have to use the PSU to power the PC down at that point.
All the parts were purchased brand new and are listed below...
As the title says, a new PC (mostly new - assembled using a mix of new and old parts from my old PC, whose CPU recently died) won't POST. A red CPU light briefly flashes (I'm not sure if that is normal, I'm used to the the LED numerical POST code readout that they used to put on mobos <£400) and...
I built this computer just shy of two years ago, and this is my first major issue. I’m no expert, but I did some basic troubleshooting. I’ve browsed through other forums and YouTube videos to try and find a solution - no luck yet.
Here’s what happened: I load up a game on my PC, played for a...
Hi, i've build a new PC, i will list components below.
After i built the PC it worked perfectly for 3 weeks, and then 2 days ago my monitor suddenly glitched for 1 sec and then got no signal. I tried every trick possible, different cables, slots, restarting, different monitor.. Issue is the...
I was up for hours last night and I have no idea what to do. When I had first turned on the PC it had an odd smell and was making a whine so I turned it off pretty quickly just out of anxiety and looked around the pc. The smell was like a plastic / chemicall-y smell.
Later on I took the PC to my...
I have upgraded my pc to a R9 7950x with Gigabyte X670E Aorus Master and Corsair 32gb (2x8) DDR5
During initial build/upgrade (2 weeks or so ago). I found that I have ran out of thermal paste. There was a bit left, but I didn't feel like it was enough, despite that I decided to apply what's...
Hello. I am looking for a good NVME SSD and found the Intel 670p and Solidigm P41 reviews very helpful. However I am not clear on one thing. The Solidigm does not have a DRAM chip, from my understanding this should impact mostly random read performance and would translate into a more snappy...
Hi, I recently bought a DDR3 8GB 1600Mhz RAM, i have one already in my PC but it's 1833Mhz 8GB. In my task manager i can see 2 RAMs connected and only 800Mhz speed. Otherwise in my BIOS I can see "Current DRAM frequency is 1600MHz. I don't know if it count together, or only the one that i...
Hi, I recently upgraded from a Gigabyte Aorus z390 / Intel i7 9700k to an Asus Tuff Gaming Z690 / Intel i7 12700k from Microcenter. I've built over 120 computers, so I'm very familiar with the process. While updating my drivers via Asus Armory Crate, Windows 10 "Check for Updates", and Geforce...

My pc seemed to turn on and...

Since the i5-11400 supports it, I went into my mobo's UEFI and bumped the DRAM frequency from the standard 2666MHz to 3200MHz..
The machine booted up fine and is, up until now, working fine.
No crashes, no weird behaviors...
I know it's just a 534MHz boost... but I thought why not?
Can I keep...

I’m having a problem where my red DRAM light is coming on in a new build I’m working on and it won’t get past that point to boot. It will bounce back to the CPU light to seemingly try and boot again but the DRAM light just comes back one. Tried different RAM that I know works, same problem...
I recently upgraded to a asrock b550 pro4 to accommodate a ryzen 5 5600x. Whenever I boot my pc up, all the red lights flash and the fans go to full speed and then low speed and then it does that same sequence again. However they go away and then it starts as if everything’s fine and I can play...

I Use Crucial Ballistix 2666MHz CL 16 DRAM ( 8GB x 2 ), at OC to 3000MHz CL 15.
I have set DRAM Voltage to 1.35v in BIOS ( Gigabyte B550m DS3H ). But HWInfo shows DRAM Voltage as 1.38v.
Which voltage is actually in use by my RAM and what is the safe voltages for my DRAM Modules?
Hi! I just came home from a long day and booted PC. It gave me the attached image:

So I was running my pc just fine with a 3700x cpu on my Asus Prime X570-Pro motherboard and 4x16 Gb Corsair Vengeance Ram, and I decided to upgrade my cpu. I got a new Ryzen 9 5900x cpu and, stupidly, discarded my old cpu.
Upon attempting to start my computer after the installation, I noticed...
