Stability

hi guys My computer crashes daily, sometimes more than five times a night. I believe the issue is that it becomes unstable with four sticks of RAM. I’ve gone days without any problems, but then it suddenly won’t stop crashing. It also seems like it retrains the RAM every time I boot up, though...

Hello! Do you think that the numerous recent rumors purporting Arrow Lake instability (for example: https://www.xda-developers.com/arrow-lake-reportedly-has-instability-issues/) are valid and truthful? Do you think that would be an impactful negative or that with microcode revisions all will be...

Do you think that Arrow Lake would curb down the heat of 14th gen? (especially in the higher-end segment) I think they are trying to create a better architecture overall. 14th gen seemed like the Pentium 4 PresHOT era all over again. Sure the chips are powerful but they do take in a lot of...

Hi everyone. I just bought an Asus ROG Strix G17 G713PV-HX019W (AMD Ryzen 9 7845HX, RTX 4060, 16GB DDR5 4800MHz in slot1, and slot2 is empty). I need to upgrade to 64GB due to my heavy workload (containerization, virtualization, SQL, etc.). ASUS official maximum capacity is 32GB, but when I...

Hi. I have an Intel i7-13700K CPU and a Noctua NH-D15 cooler. Running prime 95 stress test makes the cpu hit 100 degrees according to HWinfo, and thermal throttles, which is expected based on what I have seen in reviews using the same cooling as me. I don't mind because I just use it to game...

I've tried reinstalling windows and usual things like sfc /scannow but the issues persisted. Any guesses on where I should start next? I assumed it was RAM so I tried downclocking, but no change there either. Unfortunately I don't have any other DDR5 memory to test with PC will randomly freeze...

First post here, a year and a half after building my first PC. Late at the party if you want my honest opinion. I wasn't really paying much attention to my CPU/RAM clockspeed, overall voltage, safe temps, etc. After a while I noticed temps over 85 degrees and put a "band-aid" on it with the help...

Just bought a 2700x and wondering if the stock cooler is good enough for everyday usage. I don't plan on overclocking anytime soon(if ever), and just plan on letting the auto boost do it's thing. I will be using this on a X470 Gaming 7 wifi mobo, with a MSI 1080ti gaming x, and 64gb (4x16gb)...

This is my second build, and I have some experience in IT, and I'm absolutely baffled. I get no POST and a solid red DRAM LED regardless of RAM configuration, etc. I thought the issue may have been the CPU/RAM so I RMA'd both, but the problem persists. The part list follows: EDIT: Video of the...

So I got a Displayport cable and a mini Displayport cable for my computer (the mini DP is currently the one connected) and I was just wondering, is there any difference between the two in any noticable way? Sorry for the silly question, but I'm just curious about this, thanks in advance!

Can you join two sata data cables together to make a double length one with an extender and will it still work as well without any possible problems? Is it getting near to the maximum length, what is the maximum length (without getting too close to maximum to risk loosing data)?
