Remove the GPU on your https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B560M-DS3H-AC-rev-1x#kf Use the onboard HDMI port to connect to your monitor or a TV. Start the computer and press the Del key to enter Setup (Bios) if that loads Set Bios to Defaults. If that doesn't load, check on the motherboard for EZ Debug Lights (ie) CPU, RAM, VGA, Boot (See attached) if one or more of these lights are lit then that will point to the issue. Clearing CMOS will be set everything back to Default, unless the Motherboard got shorted out.

Okay so i tried to turn off my leds using the controler on the front panel after finding the cable to it i found the mentioned 2 pin connector it doesnt want to go in the front header inputs on the mobo and im pretty sure its for controling the fans i dont know where to plug it it please i would like to know where to connect it or at least know how to turn off the leds on my fans Mobo : ASROCK B450M Pro4 R2.0

No Blue Screen or anything? How much storage is left on the SSD? I would say to check the health of the SSD and the RAM first, then the RX-590.

I think this is the highlight he's speaking of

I can't think of much either, did you try the careful CPU reseat like the first comment recommend? if you're careful you should barely alter the thermal paste surface, and if your CPU isn't a furnace, then a bit of paste being inconsistent won't hurt it much if the temp readings are ok

Hello my dear friend Thank you very much for your guidance I want to buy a computer up to 35000 dollars Finally, I want to buy a graphics card for 5000 or 6000 dollars I want to buy a cpu 7995wx with motherboard I would appreciate it if you could advise me about the CPU fan, because this CPU consumes 350 watts, I want a CPU fan that is powerful and cools the system well. I want to buy 10 terabyte ssd, your opinion is important to me. 3 4-port network cards, each port is 1 GB, if it supports PCI 5, it is much better for me to buy. I think for this cpu 7995wx there should not be one more motherboard in the global market. Your opinion is important to me. I definitely want to buy a 1600 watt power supply And what kind of RAM should I get? Of course, I am thinking of ECC RAM, which is much, much better for this system in my opinion. Of course, please tell me the model of the RAM. I will be grateful. Thank you my dear friend for your help Thanks

Hello! For a pretty decently long amount of time I have wanted to start up my own little homelab, and I have a couple questions I hope someone here can help me answer. 1. If I'm on a budget of roughly $800 or less(INCLUDING DRIVES AND ACCESSORIES), should I just build one computer capable of everything I want to do? Or, should I perhaps build one computer entirely dedicated to being a NAS, and have all of my other operations(Jellyfin, Game Servers, Etc.) running on a separate computer that has access to the NAS? From the few people I know in real life that have their own homelabs, many have suggested to me that I should have my NAS running on bare metal, for a few different reasons. However, I thought I'd ask! 2. Assuming I have found my answer to the first question, what *kind* of hardware should I be looking for? I hear a a lot of people saying that a cheap way to start out is to buy a used office PC and chuck some drives in there, which for something such as a NAS I know would be fine. Others say that used server hardware is a good option, however I am still living with my parents and I don't want to drive up their power bill that much, and from what I've heard older server hardware is wayyy lesss efficient than the newer stuff. Maybe off the shelf new components? A prebuilt NAS? I have no idea! Requirements: File server with good amount of storage and at least a little redundancy, being able to host a Plex/Jellyfin server, and being able to spin up game servers. I'm still pretty new to all this homelab stuff, so ANY advice/questions is 100% welcome. Thanks!

Living in an apartment I wanted to see how you can make a home theater audio setup that doesn't disturb your neighbours. Apparently there's this device called Waves Maxxbass 101 & 102 which increase perceived bass without actually producing bass. I was wondering if you would make a video like "The home theater setup that doesn't disturb your neighbours" which tries to create a setup that doesn't disturb the neighbours. The conclusion could just be to wear headphones but it would be interesting to see what you can achieve.

I am out of budget so for now the 6500 os the best option for me.

Can confirm it's enough, mine keeps the 7800 at 75-80 under full core load without breaking the 60% PWM bar. Though it you're running a fishtank case and thus probably have aesthetic concerns, that's another matter altogether.

Cool thank you

More recent used thinkpads. A T480 is coffee lake stuff and has 2.5” sata and you can use a m.2 2242 sized nvme ssd in the wwan port or old workstations, the P50 is inexpensive these days but has 2 nvme slots and a 2.5” sata slot, or you can trade the two nvme slots for another 2.5” sata, though all that needs caddies or sata cables, which are added cost but they’re usually under $10 finding info on modern entry level machines is near impossible, they’re barely documented, like that motherboard I posted is a motherboard in the same model family as that, 1215u for 17” hp pavilions, because they use the same motherboard for dozens of different models but even HP doesn’t keep documentation on specific models like that, same applies to any of the oems with their basic machines most of the time these days, dual ssds are something really only found in gaming laptops some models which have 2.5” sata options still might have both sata and m.2, but not all of them

Just reseated the GPU, didn't work. Still the red blinking light.

The HP EliteDesk 800 G1 https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03832938 Is a Small Form Factor case. Which has space limitations. If you are going to upgrade the GPU and PSU, you might as well go with your idea to build a new computer rather then updating this older computer.

Good point. What would you recommend? I don't see your highlight.

From https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-x670e-e-gaming-wifi-model/helpdesk_qvl_memory/. Highlight is mine. "Ensure that all memory modules are from the same validated memory kit. Do not mix DIMMs from different memory kits—even if they are the same brand and model (e.g., two DIMMs each from two different memory kits). Mixing and matching DIMMs can result in a failure to boot and compatibility issues. In particular, the stability of a system with mixed DIMMs cannot be guaranteed when XMP (Intel)/D.O.C.P (AMD)/EXPO (AMD)/AEMP/AEMPII is enabled. For example, enabling XMP (Intel)/D.O.C.P (AMD)/EXPO (AMD)/AEMP/AEMPII to speeds above DDR5 4800MHz or above DDR4 3200MHz could result in an unstable system."

Everything in there is technically compatible, but there are a couple of issues: The motherboard is kinda bad. It doesn't matter that much as you're only running a 7600, but if you can spend an extra $10-15 on a better board that would be pretty helpful. If anything, use the stock cooler for a few months and use the money you saved there to get a better motherboard. 6400MT/s is a bit too fast for the Ryzen 7000. It would technically work, but you'd either be in 2:1 mode and get significantly worse performance than 6000 CL30, or it would be in 1:1 mode and be 50/50 whether it would be stable or not after an hour of tuning. Given a 6000 CL30 kit is slightly cheaper, go for that, and if you really want 6400MT/s overclock the 6000 CL30 kit to that speed yourself (every 6000 CL30 kit can do 6400 CL32). The 4060 Ti is a pretty terrible value for a GPU. There are only a handful of situations where it can make any amount of sense, and just a gaming system is not one of them. An RX 6750 XT is about the same price and a much faster GPU, go for that instead: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/m8QV89

Do you know of any laptops that have 2 m.2 slots that are relatively cheap? I don’t need anything big, tasks will be web browsing and looking through files.

I second your decision to build your own PC. The EliteDesk 800 G1 uses the 4th gen i5's and i7's and they definitely lack in power for modern gaming. It all depends on your budget really.

Hey guys! I built a computer for my son about a year ago and recently it's been freezing a lot no error, no way to go back to Windows, keyboard seems to lock up (caps, etc..) as well. specs: Ryzen 5 5600 silicon power 32gb ddr4 3200 Gigabyte B550M Aorus elite am4 MSI MAG A650BM 650W Mushkin m.2 1tb PCIe gen3 DIYPC MA08-BK Black USB 3.0 Micro-ATX Mini Tower (huge mistake, terrible airflow) and RX 590 8G (this is the only part I bought second-hand, used) the freezes are fairly random, but I know for a fact when trying to play Fortnite, a bit after starting a session (dropping off the bus) it freezes. but my son mostly plays Roblox/Minecraft, seems like it happens in Roblox now, but not so much in Minecraft, and Im fear it's the graphics card, which is not a huge deal (rx590 is what? $60 now?) but can't really test it since I don't have any other graphics card.. is there any error log somewhere I can access to see what could have been the cause?

That explains why my GPU that I bought November last year had ongoing sales for several months, and nowadays it's completely out of stock.

yup everything's plugged in properly i tripped checked everything i've built so many pcs for people before and only ever had problems with mine lol. i'm stumped what it could be

I want a new GPU for my HP EliteDesk 800 G1, I'm going to upgrade my PSU to whatever the GPU needs for power, and connector wise, so I was wondering I anyone can give me a list of gpu's that will fit or work with my PC if not, I think it's time to consider to build my own.

You should be OK so long as you're comfortable running it on your laptop. I've crunched out some WUs on a Raspberry Pi 5. Here's the link to the LTT walkthrough on how to set it up your computer for BOINC

I will reseat the gpu first, then I'll try clearing cmos.
