I have an MSI B350 Tomahawk Arctic mated to a Ryzen 5 3600 (with the updated BIOS, obvs) and I went to reboot my computer today, and it never came back on. It powers on, fans ramp up, and the "EZ Debug" CPU light comes on, turns off after a few seconds, and the fans ramp back down, but I'm getting no video signal, and my keyboard isn't receiving power (I can tell cause it has backlighting), which tells me it isn't POSTing. I've tried the following: - reseat GPU - Tried different GPU - reseated memory, tried different sticks in different slots - reseated CPU - reset BIOS - tried booting with no USB devices - tried booting with no SATA devices What I really need to know is whether my motherboard is dead, or whether the CPU is dead. I don't have any other Ryzen CPUs to test with. I literally have made no hardware or software changes, just hit Restart in Windows and now I get nothing.

Love the camera specs so far. Still rocking the 8MP shooter on my iPhone 6 Plus. I also love the design. I'm a big gold phone guy, so dat design doe

I personally use a EVGA GTX 970 SSC, but I'm looking to build my wife a desktop so that she doesn't have to rely on her 2011 13' MBP for all her photo editing, illustrating, and gaming. Getting a free graphics card would really help reduce the cost and bring us closer to being able to afford to do that.

Just bought a GTX 970 so this would be awesome to use for in-home streaming

My favorite videos that you guys do are the build videos. Even though I know how to build a computer and put everything together, I still end up learning something new from your videos. Not once have I regretted hitting that subscribe button, and I watch every single new video that shows up in my feed. Keep it up guys. You're amazing. -

Im actually glad they're giving away both a PSU and a graphics card since some people who would win the graphics card would be screwed if they didn't have a good enough PSU. -
Best airflow config for Corsair Carbide 200r?
andrewmsprague replied to andrewmsprague's topic in Cooling
Thanks for the replies! I ended up going with a positive pressure config with more RPMs on the intake and less on the exhaust. It seems to have helped and keeps my temps very consistent. -
Hey everyone, I've got a Corsair Carbide 200r that's configured with 1 AF120 in the front, 1 AF120 in the bottom/front, and 2 AF120s in the top/rear. They're all currently running at the same speed. I also have an ASUS GTX 560ti DirectCU II and my PSU is oriented fan down (pulling in air from the bottom of the case). I run a Zalman CPU cooler (the copper one with the fan blowing toward the rear). I get around 72°C consistently on the GPU, and around 60°C on the CPU at load playing Crysis at 1080p with all settings at Ultra and 8xMSAA (pretty much the most demanding game I typically play). Is there anything about this current configuration that could be changed to help temps? Also, are these safe temps for my components? I do remember a Samsung laptop I used to have with the AMD A6 APU which would get up to 90°C on the GPU during gameplay (definitely not a number I'm comfortable with), so 72°C seems pretty decent to me. The computer sits on top of my desk, and not on the ground/carpet. Thanks!

I like the aluminum build. Probably helps with cooling
