  1. Which one to buy? The only major difference is the CPU: the first laptop has a 7700HQ, the second one has a 8750H. Is the new cpu worth 150€ more? Thanks for you help
  2. I've played around with the settings and I discovered that it wasn't hardware related. What I did was putting Am4 Advance Boot training back to Auto and, with the OC settings above, I was able to cold boot without any error.
  3. That's interesting because this happens only when I OC the CPU. If I only select the XMP without overclocking, it will boot normally.
  4. Hey, guys. I've just recently made my first OC with a Ryzen 1700 and I need some help with some problems I'm having.My system:Ryzen 7 1700 withWraith Spire coolerX370 Taichi (bios 3.20)Flare X 16Gb (8x2)Seasonic Focus Plus Gold 750WOC:Cpu Frequency and Voltage: Auto > ManualCpu Frequency: 3000 > 3700Am4 Advance Boot training: Auto > DisabledVoltage Mode: Stable > OCCPU Core Voltage: Auto > Fixed ModeFixed Voltage: 1.21875CPU LLC: Level 2VDCCRT SOC LLC: Level 2C6 Mode: Enabled > DisabledBlobal C-State Control Auto: > DisabledStress Test:I tried with 1.184v, 1.200 e 1.2065v fixed voltage and even if 5+ cycles of Cinebench went fine, I always had a failed test with Aida64 stability test with CPU, CFU, CACHE and SYSTEM selected after respectively 2, 5 and 9 minutes. The only stable voltage was 1.21875v. Cinebench was ok after 5+ consecutive runs and so was Aida64 after 20 minutes. The only downside was having high temperatures. Even with fan mode setted on "performance" from BIOS, my max temp was 88.8°C with Aida64. It always stayed there for less than a couple of seconds, then went back to mid-high 70s (76-77°C). Strangely enough, HWMonitor and HWinfo64 read 88.8°C max temp, while Aida64 was on 20°C less 68*C or something. Wasn't this bug only on X chips? I then went on and selected the XMP/DOCP profile from BIOS and RAM was running at 3200. I did all the tests again (Cinebench and Aida64) and the system seemed stable. With this OC, idle temp was between 35°C and 40°c. During heavy gaming it didn't go past 55-60°C. Even if it reached 80°C on an unrealistic stress test, shouldn't this OC be fine since it shows safe temps during normal work? The real problem: when I did a cold boot this morning, the sytem reboot itself 3 times with a beep, while Dr. Debug was showing error F9. It resetted the OC to normal values of 3-3.2Ghz and 2400 for RAM. I l know this is someway RAM related, but what can I do to fix this? I've read that setting VDDCR_SOC at 1.100v may fixed it. Is this true? What can I do? Thanks in advance.
  5. I'd suggest you to avoid shiny gaming brands for such peripherals, get a Superlux HD681EVO + cheap mic and never look back.
  6. Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum.
  7. I don't know why but I cannot decide between these two. Right now Taichi would cost me 12€ more. Taichi seems to have best VRM + more functionalities, but Strix has a better BIOS and it's a "newer" model. What are your experiences with these boards? Which one would you recommend?
  8. I'd say DellU2715H or Benq GW2765HT.
  9. I'm planning to game only at 1440p 60hz. I'd prefer to stick with Ryzen for better future upgradability, because gaming at 1440p is gpu bound anyway and covfefe lake is not really available in my country.
  10. So, I was almost sold on the first build, than I thought that going cheaper on mobo, cpu, ram, case would have allowed me to fit a 1080ti in for the same price. Which build is most likely to be more "future-proof"? Final prices are basically the same, which to choose for gaming at 1440p 60hz and content creation?

  11. Which one to get? I cannot decide between these two. Is the Strix really worth 50€ more (I don't care about RGB)? I would use it for content creation on YouTube, some streaming, Unity/Unreal Engine and gaming at 1400p 60hz.

  12. What's the difference between Strix and Prime Pro? I thought B350 Strix-F Gaming's VRM were good.
