This is my current mobo in my rig, which isn't great but at least have some cheapo looking vrm cooling 🙈. Doesn't have any sensors for vrms temps, so not much I can say about it.
But this mobo can handle 5800X3D without overheating vrms or...
Hey!
So as the title reads, I can't boot anything, not even my USB stick which has a fresh Windows installer on it.
Before all this happened, my PC was working fine.
So how did this start?
Well, I recently picked up my new ram sticks and plugged them in my computer. I noticed that the speed...
Hi everyone, I am considering upgrading my CPU (as well as mobo) and wanted some suggestions that won't break the bank. I am currently on an EVGA Z370 board with an i5 8600k @ 5GHz all-core. At this point, 6c/6t just isn't cutting it anymore so what would be some solid value upgrades? If I...

Hi everyone ^^ I have some knowledge about PC's but not enough I guess 🙈. So I would like to learn something and ask if I should take a look on my Mobo's website and look at compatible components, like storage, RAM etc etc ?

So i have an Eagle 4070 Ti and after installing it I can see the edge-connector pins in the slot. I have less fps than others and my fans are going crazy in games, they start and stop all the time. I made a fan curve but it didn't help. Can this be because of bad gpu connection in the slot or...

Ive literally swapped everything but my motherboard, but I REALLY don't want to have to RMA my motherboard if I don't have to. My PC will post with a different graphics card for maybe a couple minutes, then stop posting. I can hear windows but it makes the USB disconnect and everything stops...
I upgraded to an EVGA RTX 3070 XC3. Temps are amazing - 60c max.
However, I have experienced random shut downs while gaming (3D Mark not enough to cause shut downs but happened in 2 games so far). The PC shuts off abruptly, PSU needs turned off and on to reboot. (some lights still active, such...
So I'm running a h310ms2p mobo with a 1070ti and one day i just lost hdmi signal so i assumed my gpu was fried. I tested this buy swapping in a 2070 super, just to see if it would detect. Nothing on device manager except the intel graphics. at this point I assume my pcie slot is busted or...
Good day.
I have been experiencing this error whenever I restart my PC. It will shutoff but then you can turn it on afterwards and it will boot into BIOS Settings. I am wondering what is wrong with my MOBO or something in my computer.
Here are the list of USB Devices connected to my PC.

Hi, I built my first PC over a year ago now, and when first testing it I realized it wasn't posting. I googled what this meant and was informed to try only 1 ram stick, and I tried it in B2, and it ended up working. I ran with only 1 ram stick for a while, and ended up trying my 2nd one in...

Hi, I just bought an i5-12600k and I’m needing to buy a graphics card, I was wondering if it’s best to wait till Black Friday or cyber Monday to buy or if I should just go ahead n go for one on eBay?
Not sure what discounts I should be expecting to get on cyber Monday or Black Friday
Went from 9600k to 12600k about 3 months ago.
I leave games running for weeks until beat them. I just put the computer to sleep.
Before upgrading I played “rdr2” and “ac: origins” rarely exiting the games and never crashing. Since upgrading I have played “death stranding” and “Spider-Man...
Hello.
I wanted to upgrade my GFs components as I had some older parts laying around. More specifically I wanted to upgrade the CPU.
My old i3 9100f should do the trick for her gaming needs.
Now, the MOBO def needed an upgrade as the socket was a mismatch, so I just picked up a cheap used...

Hey there, my newly built PC won't turn on at all. All the components are brand new.
