Phantaks Pro full tower case

Finally. Done!

Modded my old Phantaks Pro full tower -

ARCTIC P14 Pro Reverse A-RGB – 3 Pack – 140 mm Premium Fan with Reverse Airflow

Changed out the 360mm Corsair rad for the Phantaks Glacier One 420 D30x2 (what a monster cooler! Amazing!!)

Phantaks Vertical Mount ( new version)

Replaced my 3080ti FTW for a Gigabyte 5070ti oc.

Even threw in a 3.5 for kick and giggles 😁

Running a 10900k @ 5.2/5.3 GHz and seeing temps in games at a wonderful 65c as a high.

Idle temps are in low 30's c. Just unbelievable.

Total fans in case now including cooler are 9.

So happy with the results and my new temps across the entire board!

3080 12gb keeps black screening on the display every few seconds - few minutes.

I've got the 3080 12gb gigabyte aorus waterforce xtreme oc aio gpu.

I've swapped to a newer 1000w psu.

tried different display cables.

tried undervolting and lowering core / memory clock (This helped quite a lot but still persists even with what seems to be a stable uv).

I've used DDU many times.

I've tried my amd 6700xt gpu and the issue didn't happen (at least in my brief testing).

The issue happens regardless of what I'm doing. Usually increasing under load. (70-99%).

The more tasks open the more often it happens. Say.. a browser with netflix open and a game running.

Also depending on the game. Ghostwire tokyo It doesn't happen as often but say dead island remastered 1. even though im capping 180 easy. it happens every couple of seconds without that undervolt.

(Been happening not too long after I bought it in 2022).

My third build always wanted to go to Jonshbo z20

RGB not synced yet on this picture.

I build it almost completely out of second hand hardware (except PSU and the case)

When I found b550m aorus elite/5700x and some coolermaster tower for 3800kc (182 USD) I knew its my time for it 😁

Rest of the specs are
DDR4 Corsair 3600mhz 32gb 2x16gb kit
750w psu gold rated
5070 MSI gaming trio OC 338mm long, price around 900 usd new here in Czech Republic now

All of it for 26200kc (1250usd), glad it fit together, and 5700x already rocking -30 PBO, great temps and its almost quiet 🙂 with time I will change air tower for something nicer

Had issues with cable so I had to redo it almost completely as pc did not post. Quite nightmare frankly 😀 but happy that its done, quite tight fit with the cables even with modular psu though.

Need help updating motherboard

Hi All. I have a Gigabyte Auros B450 Pro Wifi Rev 1.0 motherboard in my computer and trying to update it to latest BIOS from F50 to F67 or whatever the latest one is. I am getting very frustrated because I cannot for the life of me figure this out. When I look at instruction manual it says I can do a Q flash or @BIOS utility. Q flash cannot be performed because it does not detect update file, i don’t know how to do this. And there is no @BIOS utility anywhere from what I can find and people say it is not recommended anyways. Please help, I just want to upgrade my CPU but I need to upgrade BIOS but I cannot even do that.

High hotspot RTX 3070 Gaming OC rev 2.0

Hi all! My gpu fans are ramping up to 4400 rpm which is over the maximum i can set (i can set them up to 3400 rpm on msi afterburner), so i checked the hotspot of the gpu which is 104-105 °C while the gpu is at 75-80 °C.

I already changed pads and thermal paste, is there anything else i can try or i need to change gpu?

Below are my pc components:

CPU: Ryzen 3600

AIR COOLER: Cooler Master Hyper 412S

Motherboard: GIGABYTE B550 AORUS ELITE AX V2

RAM: CORSAIR VENGEANCE LPX DDR4 RAM 32GB (2x16GB)

BIOS update failure, bricked MOBO - are there any casualties?

Hello. Recently I have made a post about a failed BIOS update that made my motherboard a complete unfixable brick. As for now the motherboard is being currently investigated upon RMA. For some off reason I did the update successfully, yet it just bricked my motherboard completely.

So while I await for the final verdict on warranty, one question was bothering me. What are the odds that failure of the motherboard also caused other components to collapse? Like GPU, CPU, PSU?

Worth noting that I did not see any sparks, powet outages, fire, or any burning smell. My PC just would not boot, as it left me on black screen with 'No Signal'.

Hopefully nothing else failed during that... right?

My Games Stutters after CPU and Motherboard change

Hello, I recently upgraded my CPU for a Ryzen 5 5500X3D, I had an issue with my old MB so I changed for a Gigabyte B550 EAGLE, I also changed my Windows since the MB change made me lose my key product (forgot to mention that I have an RTX 2080 SUPER and 32Go RAM (B0BC12957X))

So with that explained I'm having really horrible micro stutters (maybe GPU throttle idk ?) since I upgraded the CPU and MB, but I downloaded everything that I had to download driver-wise and I STILL have those stutters

I'll link a video on Apex to showcase what's it doing

https://youtu.be/xA\_5E91f2Qg?si=LX\_DIxdetjsGFcxb

(You can see the FPS drops on the top right corner)

Thanks in advance !

New Aorus Motherboard help

I have a new Aorus Master x870e Ice with a Ryzen 7 9800x3D. (I got this because I already had the Aorus Master 5080).
Im having a great of trouble.

  1. I have had a lot of trouble with the bios. It took hours to load, and kept looping.
  2. One of the Nvme drives does not work and freezes the whole rig before the bios is anything is installed.
    One m.2 that I have worked. Then stopped working too.
  3. I finally got it running, without one M.2. However, it’s running very hot.
    My last build was MSI z890 with Intel Core Ultra 7. It ran at a max 60 degrees. My new AMD 90 degrees in Wildlands.

I’m very worried I’ve got a dud.
I only bought it today.

Please help!!!

Gigabyte Aorus 5080 Infinity Wood Build

Yeah, I know the negative arguments for this one. But this is the thing I chose to spend my money on rather than overpriced coffees, shitty takeout, and all the many other things we can toss our money into. This is worth it to me.

How can I enable Resizable BAR with an RX 6600 XT and Ryzen 5 3400G?

I have an RX 6600 XT, which supports Resizable BAR, but my CPU is a Ryzen 5 3400G, which I believe does not officially support ReBAR.
My motherboard is a Gigabyte B450M-H, and I’m running the latest BIOS (F68a).
I already enabled Above 4G Decoding, but the Resizable BAR option does not appear anywhere in the BIOS.
Is there any way to enable ReBAR with the 3400G, perhaps through a BIOS setting or another method?
Has anyone managed to get ReBAR working with a Ryzen 5 3400G + RX 6600 XT?

Gigabyte Aero x16 users, share your experience.

AMD Ryzen AI 7 350
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070
32 GB of RAM
1 TB of SSD
Budget : 1900 USD
Country : Ukraine

Hi! Based on reviews this laptop checks all the boxes for my needs, I do light gaming (hearthstone), might try out Hogwarts Legacy but not really into AAA games so I'm fine with the 85W on the GPU, you may say that in this case the specs might be overkill but I really don't want to do upgrades or even buy a new laptop in the next 3 years.
But I do care about build quality, overheating, fan noise, issues with BIOS, software, overall longevity so please share your experience.
Also if you bought a different laptop based on the same needs and have a better option for me please let me know.
Thank you!

Black ops 7 B365m Ds3h wifi

Hello, my girlfriend is trying to play bo7 with me but can't get past the attestation issue. The game says bios needs to be updated but she has the F3 update which is the latest one. Tpm 2.0 and secure boot are both on. The tpm manufacturer version is 303.12 which they say is too low. I have no idea what to do to update that any higher. Im pretty sure ive seen people say they are playing with the same motherboard so idk

I told my wife it’s entirely not for gaming

It’s my first time buying my own laptop. Looking for a budget laptop to use for office work but i saw this just few bucks from what i thought i should buy..

Gigabyte gaming a16
Intel core i5-13420H
16gb ram
Rtx 5050

Tried it playing using the 5050 “was caught playing and i had to uninstall every game and steam” it heats easily while gaming so i had to max the A/C room also bought an laptop stand that has fans. I love everything about it.. the very wide screen that i ddnt have to buy a monitor at the mean time.. also listen to music using a dongle-C dac/amp.. i hope this will last.. as would love it to be my partner for a lot of years..

Why is Gigabyte/AORUS so unknown compared to the other big computer/Laptop companies ? How good are they in general?

I’ve been searching around for a while on getting a new gaming laptop and as it stands I’m pretty locked in on the Lenovo legion series, but I’ve also seen much fewer but still relatively positive mentions for the AORUS series.
For owners of the AORUS laptops, do they present any common problems ? Do they hold up for how relatively expensive they are ?
