That, try it in another machine, possibly from a live linux boot... if it's recognised with proper capacity you can use e.g. ddrescue to make an image of it and hopefully mount it then, if it still freezes or doesn't get recognised correctly there's nothing you'll be able to do outside of using a data recovery company.

If it has gone bad, is there a way to recover any files from it or is it doomed...

Unable to do that in current moment, it's just that the other one works fine that makes us think that shouldn't be an issue!

Perhaps try the SSD in another slot or in another PC. Though seems it's gone bad.

Could you try the SSD in another machine?

My friend recently couldn't boot his computer and got sent straight to the bios despite it working perfectly the day before. He since then has bought a new harddrive and it's working seemlessly which led us to believe the old one could be faulty. However, he has some files there that are important as well as the fact we both are bummed and stubborn and left to wonder if there are any potential fixes. So to get to what we are able to see, inside of the diskmanager the "faulty" drive shows up as a unknown device with every information blank. As well as when it was plugged in along side the new ssd it took about 5 minutes to boot but without sending us to the bios. I'll attach some photos and help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance

Yes they do spin

You guys are right, I think 4K is too much for his hardware. I haven't asked yet, but from what I've seen the PC is some not too high end prebuilt so I'd rather qhd and not 4K. Very low chances 4K would fit

Power supply is fine I have a spare. I can just get a cheap motherboard for only a little extra. Thanks for your help

it will not. It also won't use an ATX Power Supply most likely.

XMP RAM works on the AM5 platform I see no reason why this RAM shouldn't work at 5600mhz XMP /EXPO profile. I wouldn't worry about it at all.

A used 2080 ti should be around that price. Or a 6700 xt/6750 xt since that’s sometimes cheaper. Maybe even a used 3080 but check if that’s a scam. Used 3070 should be around that price but it’s only got 8gb or vram though that should be fine for 1080p

Yeah that makes sense

Arctic F9 fans are 92mm and PWM

Hi, i recently putted together a new pc with a Ryzen 5 7600x, an ASUS TUF B650M and 2x16 of Kingston FURY 5600MT/s memory (KF556C40BA-16) This memory is CL40 and searching in the Kingston page it doesnt mention it being compatible with any AMD processors, only with Intel XMP. Does this mean im going to have problems running this RAM's with my processor at all? or only that i cant overclock them using DOCP from AMD to the max speed my processor support's, that is 5200MHz? Could this change in the future with a software update that made this RAM's compatible with DOCP overclocking? I paid a lot of money for this RAM's, in my country PC components are really expensive so im really worried to have made a wrong purchase Thank you for your help

likely cause he had nothing to complain about, your only other option in that price is like a used ryzen 5 5500 or a new 13 10100f, so no get that its a wonderful deal, see if you can be a dick and talk him down more...

whats the closest country to yours currency wise, lithuania isnt on pcpp lol

Is it possible to find some other CPU for similar price somewhere which would be better than that? And what's the worse that would happen if I used that CPU for gaming? I mean the friend used it only for gaming and I did not hear him complain much

go used, check ebay for prices on a 3080, if you find a 7800xt new on sale for 300(which would be a steal) try that, other than that dont bother with new 4060 is the only new nvidia card in your budget, but its shit so dont buy it haha

Wow guys, thank you for such quick responses. Well my country is Lithuania, and I am not sure which GPU would be best, should I look for new or used, ideal budget for GPU would be up to 300 EUR.

do the gpu fans spin up at all?
