processor

So im just getting into overclocking and put a Noctua dh15 on my 8700k. I ran a test of Cinebench to get a benchmark on stock with intel turbo before starting and I'm not sure why my temps are so high at 100% load. Obviously the 8700k runs hot, but not sure if I have headroom to start. Idle...

Hello, the quick question is: If I have a processor which is from the 7th generation, which I believe is an i5 7400, 1151 socket, do i need a motherboard that's also from the 7th generation or can I get any other motherboard from the newer generations, like from the 9th or 10th generation with...

I recently upgraded my CPU to a Ryzen 3700X, and I bought new memory (G.Skill 3600 2x8GB) to go along with it. Everything works fine, as best I can tell. However, I now often touch my keyboard for the first time after leaving it for several minutes (or hours) and get a light electrostatic shock...

So, I bought a new motherboard, ram, and processor. When I turned the computer on, it loaded right into my bios. For some reason, it wouldn't load into windows, only in bios.. I tried changing UEFI to the other one, and no luck. My SSD does not show up in boot option priority for some reason...

I'm doing a major upgrade (only keeping drives and GTX 1070) and want to know if a AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT Processor is good enough to run games with a MSI Optix MPG341CQR UWQHD 144Hz Adaptive Sync HDR 34in Monitor? By good enough I mean playing most games at mid to high settings with less demanding...

Hello, So I bought a used processor, thereby doesn't seem to be any defects that I have noticed. I made sure my bios was updated, thermal paste was put on properly all seemed to be good and dandy. But when I reset my bios to default setting of the chip it just won't go into windows. At times...

Greetings. I recently upgraded from a 1300x to a 2600x. During installation, I had some problems keeping the backplate in place and lifted the cooler, and the put it back on without reapplying thermal paste as I didn't have any at hand at the moment, and I assumed it wouldn't be a problem...

Not sure to pick, if I'm buying a 2600k or 3770k. There's a lot of discussion about the ups and downs between these two processors. NOW, I want to know the "not-so-sure-final-answer" about these i7 Cpu's. I researched them both for 3 months now but still not really sure about of how I'm gonna...

I built my computer five years ago, few months ago being the anniversary. Now after the launch of CyberPunk I'm looking to upgrade a bit. I always knew my CPU was pretty weak as it's a AMD FX-8350 and that isn't one of the models that are considered "fantastic." Before posting this I did check...

First of all say that while trying to clean my pc,my cpu got stuck to the cooler and while removing it it bent a couple pins, ok fixed that and now whenever I position the computer horizontically it works perfectly fine but when it's vertically it just blackscreens and there's no display on the...

I want to build a new PC, mostly for gaming. i play pretty CPU intensive games like flight sims, arma 3, etc. so i want a powerful CPU and overclock it to around 5GHZ. (intel only tho out of personal preference!) i currently have a rig with a 6700k @ 4,6 GHZ but i will use that as a backup PC...

I'm planning on building a new pc mid december for around €500-€600, and I found this black friday deal with a Ryzen 7 1700x for €100. It has 8c/16t which would probably be the best I can get, but it's pretty old. I'll prob mix it with a 1660S and 16GB ram.

Hey guys. So its been almost 6ish years since i purchased my 4690 processor and im toying around with the idea of upgrading it. I was wondering if the i3 10100 would be a sufficient enough upgrade since processors are kinda expensive in india. What do you guys think? If not the 10100 then what...

My PC was doing just fine, but one day my apartment's power goes out, and then it used to boot on second try, but then it went off for good, I would only see the orange light, and then after 3 days I turned on my PC it booted perfectly fine, Now, when I'm using heavy software's like adobe...

When I have my max processor state capped, the speeds my system is able to run are capped too. 95% cap only lets me run at 2.09GHz, 99% cap only lets me run at 2.19GHz while my CPU is capable of turbo boosting to 4GHz. When I uncap it, I have power limit throttling issues and a lot of CPU...

Intel Xeon Processors are better than core i series for desktop workstation ? Which Xeon Processors are latest (2019-2020)and budget friendly (500$ or Less ) for 3D Production, VFX and Animation ?

Does Intel Provides Cpu cooler along with i5-10400, 10500, 10600 Processor ? or F and K series of 10th Gen ?
