So I have just updated my build and I have a Asus Prime 9070Xt OC and a i5 14600kf with 32gb of ddr5 6000, with this I am wanting to update my monitor and I do not want to buy a monitor that is not fit for purpose, I am looking at 3840x2160 and 2560x1440 I just want to know what makes most sense with the build I have, any suggestions welcome, Thank you guys.

I recently upgraded my computer (Specs below). Performance in-game is incredibly unstable and stutters. I have uninstalled all drivers and reinstalled multiple times, attempted to tamper with Nvidia control panel settings and app settings. My temperatures for the CPU and GPU are within range. When playing a game such as Rust, my fps is at a steady 12, but when looking downwards, the fps jumps to 60. When playing a game such as Overwatch, the frame rate is steady when looking around and standing still, but sudden movements drop the fps.

New- 5060 8Gb
New- I5 13600k (Updated drivers for the previous code error which caused overheating)
Asus B660
32gb Ram
1Tb SSd

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hello!

I have upgraded my CPU today from a Ryzen 2600 to a Ryzen 5950x. The PC boots, everything works, I can even run a CPU and GPU benchmark simultaneously, but as soon as I run a demanding game for a minute or so, my PC crashes. The screen goes black, the PC lights stay on and the CPU debug LED of my mainboard is on. At this point I cannot even hard shutdown the PC by holding the power button, I have to switch off the power supply, switch it back on, then boot.

I have updated the BIOS, have cleared CMOS (at least I think I have, I switched the power supply off and pushed the reset CMOS button on the back). Nothing helped so far. I don't think it's a power supply issue, as I looked up the recommended power supply wattage for my setup and it's 600W upwards, I have 750W.

I'm running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on this PC.

These are my hardware specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5950x

Mainboard: MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC

RAM: 2x HMA82GU7CJR8N-VK

GPU: AMD RX 7800 XT

Drives: ADATA NVME SSD, 2 TB, SX8200PNP; Western Digital HDD, 2 TB, WDC WD20ERFX; ADATA SSD, 512 GB, SU800 (system drive); LG DVD burner, GH24NSD1.AUAA10B

PSU: Be quiet! System Power 11 750W

Thank you for reading! Any help would be really appreciated.

Built a pc about two months ago and ever since have been having constant freezing and crashing. Sometimes the pc works fine and I can play all day, other days the thing will post, boot, and as soon as I sign in and the desktop comes up it freezes and crashes almost immediately.

I’m at my wits end with this thing. I’ve reseated and checked all the outlets, ram memtest and ram came back good, I’ve freshly reinstalled windows 11 five different times now. Temps are all good, and I’ve ran DDU and freshly reinstalled GPU drivers as well as flashing my BIOS with the newest version.

I have no idea where to go from here besides just throwing new parts at it.

I did end up getting event viewer up in safe mode an have a lot of event 10005 ID’s there. As well as a few event 208 and 216’s in there.

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

I have to wait 2 hours for my partner to come home and fix it, but he claims theres nothing wrong with it,

Context:

Hes been trying to update the space with these stick things he has brought (not a pc expert but they are green and look like a small mother board thing) ontop of that hes just cleaned it, now im not a computer expert but I am damn well sure its not meant to smell quite literally immediately of fire and smoke, I turned it off before anything could happen (by the plug because holding the off button wasnt working) i dont know if its because of the heatwave uk is currently going through, or something is generally wrong, but i have never been bombarded so fast with that smell in my life, and thats coming from an owner of a pc that did decide it didnt want this life,

It looks fine from the outside, but then again I dont know what im looking for or at, i just want to know if the pc really is okay? Or hes saying that just so he can get off the phone and back to his dnd game...

Any hints?

Anytime I run Perfmon /Report it says - When attempting to start the Data Collector Set the following system error occured:

Property value conflict

Anyone know why that would be??

Bought this on eBay with no cable and didn't do my research enough about which one I'd need. Can someone point me in the right direction? I know it came with an adapter from the factory, but I can't seem to find a genuine nvidia one. Are any of the Amazon brands g2g?

Would this work?

I know nvdidia suggests 2x8 pin individual cables but this one I posted seems to work that issue out?

Hello, first time posting here maybe someone can help me. I used AI to help me write my problems since english is not my main language:

My PC specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X

GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060 OC 6GB

Motherboard: ASUS PRIME B450M-K

RAM: 16GB DDR4-3000 (2×8GB)

Storage: Kingston A2000 500GB NVMe SSD + 2TB SATA HDD

Old PSU: be quiet! System Power B9 600W

New PSU: be quiet! System Power 11 650W

My PC suddenly shut down while gaming a few days ago and wouldn't turn back on. The motherboard standby LED was still on, but pressing the power button only made the fans twitch briefly. There was also a slight burnt smell.

I replaced my old PSU with a brand new be quiet! System Power 11 650W using only the new cables. The PC booted and worked normally for like 3 days.

Today, while I was just watching YouTube and playing a small game (summonerswar), the PC suddenly shut off again. I switched the PSU off and back on, then tried to start it. It powered on for a moment, but I saw small blue/white sparks from the area around the GPU, followed by a strong burnt smell. The smell is definitely coming from the graphics card area, not the 24-pin connector or the PSU.

I immediately unplugged the PC and haven't turned it on again.

Do you think the GPU is most likely dead, or could the motherboard or even the new PSU also be the cause?
