I saw a post here in the forum describing the exact same noise from the motherboard (Gigabyte Z490 AORUS XTREME). Sounds a bit like an old hard drive, but I only have M2 SSD installed. It seems that the crackling noise occurs during data transfer. Unfortunately, this thread has not been active...

Hey all, Let me start by saying, I’ve got an ok amount of high end pc building (5-10 built for self and friends.) With that being said I’m definitely not an expert with the nitty gritty parts of a PC, and understanding those sorts of thing. I have done an abundant amount of research about this...

Hello Everyone, i'm going to buy an i9 10850K to upgrade my Gaming PC and can't really decide on a Mainboard. Since AMD is going through the roof, z490 mainboards got neglected imo and finding reviews on one that doesn't cost more than 350$ seems like an issue. Please feel free to let me know...

I purchased a used prebuilt from CyberPower in 2018 and have slowly upgraded it over time to a custom build. I play at 1440p/144Hz and play a wide array of games, some more CPU intensive like Rust and R6. Some more GPU intensive like Squad, HLL, and Warzone. Disregarding the old parts, I have...

If I were to buy a Z490 motherboard on let's say amazon right now, would it support Intels 11th gen processors (like the i5 11400) out of the box or would the motherboard require a BIOS-update first?
