  2. Summary: I recently upgraded from a Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3200MHz RAM kit to an XPG Spectrix D35G 3600MHz RAM kit. I am seeing new XMP profiles in my motherboard BIOS. (more details below) What I Have: CPU: Intel Core i5-8400 Motherboard: ASUS TUF H370 Pro Gaming Wi-Fi RAM: 2 x 8GB (XPG Spectrix D35G 3600MHz) Graphics Card: Gigabyte RTX 3060 Ti Gaming OC Pro Rev 3.0 Power Supply: XPG Core Reactor 750W Cooler: Cooler Master MasterAir MA410P Fans: 2x Be Quiet Pure Wings 2 120mm PWM SSD1: HIKVision E100N 128GB M.2 (Boot drive) SSD2: Transcend SSD220S 240GB SSD3: Crucial MX500 500GB When I was using the Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3200MHz RAM kit, I had to turn on an XMP profile to run the RAM at 2666MHz (kit was running at 2133MHz when XMP was disabled) since that is the maximum frequency the Intel Core i5-8400 supports. Now, I have switched to the XPG Spectrix D35G 3600MHz RAM kit (because the Corsair kit died) and I went to the motherboard BIOS to turn on check the XMP profiles and saw the following: RAM already running at 2666MHz with XMP disabled. There are 2 XMP profile options available now. Profile #1 is 3597MHz. Profile #2 is 3200MHz. Questions that I have: Why is the XPG kit showing these profiles that have frequencies way above 2666MHz? The Corsair kit only showed a 2666MHz profile even though that kit was rated for 3200MHz. Will my system be stable on using any of the new XMP profiles? Should I go ahead and use them? Should I just leave it just like this and not use any of the profiles?
  3. @thatChangeFromGToEminor For budget conscious look at Yinhua/WEP. They aren't top notch quality but equally they aren't awefull. Maybe get two/three separate stations: - china clone/compatible Hakko T12 station with either original Hakko tips or low cost China tips. - SMD tweezer rework station - hot air station
  4. did the post not load up or did he actually not put anything there
  5. My browser used to do something similar after I swapped GPUs to my newer one, DDU fixed it. Could give it a shot maybe.
  6. Just login to your Microsoft account and look in subscriptions. In my experience, this happens few times, something goes wrong with Office installation, I run "Repair" and my MS Office 2016 (or other versions) convert to Office 365 without subscription. I uninstall MS Office and then install my MS Office 2016 from my MS account. You can try to found your MS Office key with some method, for example via "Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder"
  7. Current specs : R7 5700X RX 7800XT 24GB DDR4 Ram Was looking to get a 1440p Monitor, here's a few I picked; GIGABYTE GS27Q (SS IPS panel ~ $337.14) Gigabyte M27Q 27 Inch KVM (SS IPS panel ~ $358.10) Gigabyte G27QC (VA panel ~ $332.58) (curved, have no prior experience with curved displays so a bit hesitant about it) GIGABYTE GS27QC (VA panel ~ $337.14) Prices vary slightly where I live, if you wanna look up from the sites I've taken the prices from, it's here and here. I have no idea about different panels and such, and 27 inch isn't really a requirement. Currently on 1920x1080@60Hz, thought it'd be a nice touch. I only included gigabyte monitors cause I didn't really find anything within the price (the site sorting is pretty bad, see if you find something else).
  8. NZXT Cam is the only program on my PC that I have seen do this. I have not found much info online and I made sure it is up to date. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled nzxt cam. Not sure what else to do and figured I'd post on here for an answer. Thanks! nzxt glitch.MOV
  9. Ya, the 105 is for the GPU strictly, he plans on upgrading the rest of the build over time. Hmmm, I'll try and keep an eye out for whichever is in budget, thanks for the tip
  10. Can somebody help me I have a 3080 TI founders edition with a AMD 3900 X when I’m in the middle of gaming, my GPU crash and restart my computer. I have a Corsair 850w power supply. When I’m playing games, the crash sometimes doesn’t happen right away sometimes I can be playing for a couple hours and then it does it after the restart majority of the time it keeps on crashing until I shut it off and leave it off for a few hours. Is it a power supply issue or is it a graphics card issue?
  11. Its not that its overkill, its overpriced, an RGB LF3 is better performing and 2/5's the price
  12. Budget (including currency): Country: Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):
  13. Im a little confused CPU or GPU, Also im not sure $105 will get much worth upgrading as youll need a new motherboard, CPU and RAM If the $105 is for a gpu, honestly similar story, a meaningful upgrade worth the price will cost more, buying whatevers available for $105 will net you a small upgrade for a decent cost You might be able to find a 2060Super for around 500 or possibly, if you can get it a 1080Ti for a little more, its an earlier gen than the 2060 but a big upgrade over the 1050 and stronger than the 2060S
  14. A UPS generally isn't intended to power your devices for extended periods of time. Their use case, from a business standpoint, is to power hardware just long enough to either: Do a controlled shutdown Allow backup generators to kick in So you what you want is a UPS that can keep all of your devices running for e.g. 10 minutes. Worst case scenario is likely a power outage at a time where all of them are in use at the same time as you're running a gaming workload.
  15. Try running this at 6000, depdending on your memory controllers silicon AM5 can be unstable over 6000, ideal spot is 6000CL30, mine is actually entirely unstable if i dont memory retrain it everytime and im running 6000CL32 not even 30
  16. My Zotac RTX 3060 Ti Twin Edge OC has been working great for the past year. My previous Dell OEM RTX 2060 profitted hugely from a re-paste after only two years of use
  17. Are you using Gsync? Theres a thread currently ongoing where someone fixed a tear-ey/stuttery issue by changing to using Vsync instead of Gsync
  18. Today
  19. Yeah thats an old photo, the fan is attached to the front tower, this photo was taken mid swap over, also rotated its now 90degrees as the fan is actually 152x140mm outer so now sits a little lower and hits more heatpipe, and the fans on the FC140 are quite poweful so im not sure a 70mm fan will have much effect when one of the prisma al14s (and soon to be an AL-12 too) are pointing straight at it. Temps changed a little as i removed the 2 exhaust fans as they werent wired into each other and were easier to get out for the new pc, but as i said the temp difference is mostly within margin of error so no issue there really FC140 fan specs 140*27mm 120*25mm
  20. [ Moved to Off Topic ] Gotta kick that habit before TikTok melts your brain into goop and it leaks out of your nose.
  21. Why do you want an overkill AIO? It won't be much quieter than an air cooler and is much more likely to fail than an air cooler thanks to the pump being its weakest link. The 7600X won't draw more than 100W, 150W max if pushed. You don't need an X670 motherboard for a 7600X, you'd be fine with a B650 board and save a few bucks
