I tried the BIOS, but I don't think this model shows the pump's RPM in it. Also I can't really tell if the vibration is coming from it or the rest of the computer parts.

This is happening with a Ryzen 7 1800X and a Corsair H80i v2. A few months ago I moved between cities and had my computer sent from my hometown (about 2000km away). When it arrived, it would overheat, but the fans were spinning and the pump block lighted up so I couldn't tell why it was happening. Seemed like reseating the block and reapplying thermal paste was the only thing left to do, 'cause maybe it had dislocated a bit during the transport. I then ran into another problem (see my previous thread if you want context) and sent it to a technician to work on it. From what I remember he told me, everything seemed to be fine with the machine and I ended up paying only for a cleaning service. Now I'm back at my hometown and had the machine transported back here once again (I did not use the machine at any point after I sent it to the technician). As my fears proved true, the exact same situation I had faced a couple of months ago repeated itself and I cannot figure out the problem. The only thing that would make sense to me is if the pump was dead, but how do I check this?

My apologies, I may have misspoken... The system doesn't start at all, the MoBo LEDs light up once I flip the PSU Switch, and that's it. What is intriguing me is that I did not remove any cables whatsoever from the MoBo while reseating the block and a system which was working just fine (apart from the overheating) now refuses to boot. I haven't, and frankly, that's on the bottom of my list of things to try as it would require me to disassemble the Cooler's Radiator and Fans once again in order to have access to the battery, which is quite a hassle of a task.

All the other 3 screws came off just fine, it was just this one that was causing problems. Yes, I even gave it another go and nothing happens. Just adding something that I forgot to mention in the original post: the MoBo LEDs all light up just fine, which makes this even weirder to me, as power is definitely coming through.

I've recently moved cities and had my PC sent through a moving company, not too worried about damage since I have no HDDs. Once it arrived, I plugged in to see if it would work normally, and it turned on beautifully, once I saw it had, I went to another room to figure something out and when I came back the PC had turned off, I figured it had idled, but once I tried turning it on again, it very quickly turned off again. Tried again and got the overheating message, so when I check the BIOS the temps were around 80 C, which was weird to me since the fans and the pump seemed to be working just fine (Corsair H80i). I checked the cables and everything was well connected, so I thought I should try reseating the block. Bought the thermal paste and screwdrivers, and after 2 days fighting with one of the screws on the block that eventually got stripped, I managed to remove it, clean the old paste up, apply the new one and reseat the block. Awesome, right? Well, I thought so, but now, it won't turn on. I looked at the panel cables, reconnected them and even tried using a screwdriver to jump it (not sure if I did it correctly though, I was afraid of getting electrocuted), but to no avail. Now I have no idea why it won't turn on, and I ask you, gods of PC Building to shed a light on where I may have fucked up and what I can try to do to fix it. PS: When I was fighting with the screw, I had to remove the GPU to make space so I could use pliers to turn it, but other than that I didn't fiddle with anything else.

Nevermind, found out I had forgotten to plug the CPU 8-pin connector from the PSU. (yes I'm stupid, I know)

Hello there, Yesterday I performed an upgrade on my computer, switching the following components: AMD FX-8350 ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 Cooler Master Hyper 212 Corsair CX750 G.Skill 2x4 GB 2133MHz For these: Ryzen 7 1800X ASUS Prime B350-Plus Corsair H80i v2 EVGA 650BQ Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB 3000MHz (I kept my GTX1070) Initially the computer wouldn't turn on at all, I checked all connections and fixed it, but now, it turns on (the cooler, motherboard and Graphics Card all light up and the fans spin) but sends no video to the monitor or lights up the peripherals. Any idea what could be causing this? EDIT: It may also be worth noting that after ir turns on, both the power and reset buttons don't do anything.

So you're the first to recommend me a Ryzen, and I though about the R5 1600, but how do you think it would compare to, say, a 6700k in terms of future-proofing, when considering streaming and a bit of content creation? I have not tried a differente encoding, will do this next time I stream. Think that's a little too extreme, no?

You think the performance gain for the 8700k is negligible?

Hello, I have been using an AMD FX-8350 for about 2 years and so far it has served me quite well. Recently, though, I've been streaming a little bit (mostly Rocket League) and the CPU struggles to keep the framerate acceptable (paired with a GTX 1070) at some points and causes some stuttering as well, since it's hitting 100% or close with OBS and RL open; it's even worse if I have Chrome as well. I don't really have a budget, just looking for the absolute best bang for the buck, in other words, not to overspend.

UPDATE So I think I found out the issue with the GPU, it is overclocking itself, having caused some crashes even when not in-game lately. After monitoring the GPU stats while the games are not crashing, I found out that the card is boosting itself to around 1885 MHz, which is definitely causing some instability given it's even higher than the OC Mode Boost which is 1797 MHz. I have not set such an OC to the card, and I was unable to solve the problem, I have tried the following, all proved unsuccesful: Updating Drivers Reinstalling Drivers Set to Gaming (1582 MHz) and Silent (1506 MHz) Mode on MSI Gaming APP Attempted to limit Power Draw and Clock Speed on MSI Afterburner Is there a fix for this, or will I have to send it over to the support?

About 1 year and 7 months, just like all other components apart from the GPU.

It's a CX750, very basic, not even semi-modular...

I do not, it is currently set to Gaming Mode on the MSI Gaming App with a max clock of 1582MHz

Hello there, Yesterday I attempted to boot Overwatch, and right as it was starting up, the GPU fans started screaming and the screen went black with "No video detected". I simply rebooted the PC and carried on, later I was able to play a little bit of Rocket League with no issues. This morning, however, the same thing happened when I tried opening Rocket League again, I then updated my drivers hoping it would solve the problem. Afterwards, I was able to boot the game and play a few matches, but at a moment when I was checking some stuff in the menu, the very same thing happened, super loud fans and black screen. I have no idea what could be causing this and I'm not sure how to google it either, so I ask if anyone has had this happen before and how can I solve it, since I don't want it to happen right as I am in the middle of a Competitive match or whatever. Note that I have been using this card since February (previously had an R9 290X), and never had such an issue.
