It stopped working correctly about 4 days ago after I had to do a system restore because of updated drivers resulting in a bootloop of Windows. I have already tried Updated/downgrading bluetooth drivers. Forget and repair audio device. Tried a couple of wireless headphones and all result in the same effect.

Anyone?

Hello, I made my first build and everything was running just fine. I've been using the build for one week, until yesterday I changed a setting (enabled fastboot) in the motherboard and hit exit and save changes. What happened was that something appeared saying updating BIOS, then I heard two beeps and now the computer won't boot (not even to BIOS). It just keeps rebooting itself 7 seconds after trying to power on, I can't see anything on the screen, doesn't even get to the Gigabyte logo when booting, so my guess was that the BIOS got corrupted. After research I found several solutions, since the mobo I have counts with a DualBIOS from Gigabyte. I see the case going on (the fans and the PSU) and the CPU fan tries to start and fails to move (I see it twitch a little). And the computer finally turns off and then repeats the loop again by itself. Also it has an internal speaker which now make no sound at all. This is the build I'm using: Intel Core i5-6500 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor Gigabyte GA-H170-GAMING 3 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard Kingston HyperX Fury Black 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2133 Memory A-Data Premier SP550 240GB 2.5" Solid State Drive Toshiba 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive Zotac GeForce GTX 1060 6GB AMP! Edition Video Card EVGA 500W 80+ Certified ATX Power Supply I've googled a lot and found different solutions. So what I've done so far: 1) Reset the CMOS in different ways. -Shorting the two pins -Removing the battery for couple of seconds, and even an hour. 2) Trying to force the backup bios to kick in. -Holding reset and power button for 10 seconds -While PSU off, turning on the PSU while holding the power button of the case, then back off the PSU in a second, and finally back on and trying to turn on the computer 3) Unplugging one stick of ram leaving the primary slot with only 1 stick. 4) Disconnecting the hard drives 5) Disconnecting the graphics card The good thing is that I bought this literally one week ago, so maybe I can get a replacement for the mobo, but I would prefer if there was a fix. If anyone has had the same issue I would be very thankful to receive any help.

Alright so after modifications I ended up with this setup. What do you think about it? It will end up being around 820 US.

But that would imply changing the motherboard, right? Because of the 6500 being LGA1151 not LGA1150.

What do you guys think about an i5-4460 (3.2 GHz) for 190 US or i5-6600K (3.5 GHz) for 232 US?

Switching for a 1060 seems like a great idea, what's missing would be the CPU, I would like to know what CPU around 200 US you recommend.

If I would consider overclocking what CPU would be good ? i5 6500?

Yes I do plan to add probably a 3TB HDD to store games, the SSD I plan to install only the OS. What intel CPU do you recommend?

My budget is about 900 US to spend on a computer that I want to build. Used pcpartpicker to confirm the compatibility between components and so far I found everything on Amazon for about 750 US (missing peripherals). But I wanted to know what you think about it? Is it good so far? Am I mistaken with the parts I'm picking out? (I attached an image with all the components so far or go to https://amzn.com/w/WXWB09XSEQ1 which is the list I also made on Amazon.com).
