Hello folks! Hope yous all having a great day So I got that GTX 1050ti here, and it has a pcie 6pin connector on it (shocking I now, for a 75w TDP card). And so my question is, if I plan on running it at stock frequency, no OC whatsoever, could I possibly not plug this 6 pin? What would happen? I'd rather ask before blowing anything up! Thanks people

It was a problem of RAM density in the end, something about having 512kb chips on the stick, instead of having 256kb ones. I don't remember which config was high and which was low density, but I finaly stumbled upon a set of crude looking hynix memory modules that worked just fine. Guess I got lucky

Well I'll end up bying another set of RAM i guess. But I still refuse to believe that this particular stick is just dead as it's still outputing info and somehow communicating with the mobo... Maybe some kind of spd flash would do the trick ?

I just added another stick that i know is working. I've read a lot of things about this on the internet, might be worth my while to try and re-seat the CPU and cooler. But i know that all the dimms are working because i tried them all with a good stick of RAM, so that maybe useless. IDK really !

Hi guys, So I just received an Asus X79 Sabertooth I picked up used to couple with a Xeon E5 2690. So far the CPU is a beast, and the whole package does a good job at gaming and productivity for the price. Though i have one problem that I didn't realize I had at first. One of my RAM stick appears to be faulty. I have 4 sticks of Kingston HyperX Beast 4gb 1600MHz that i hoped would run in quad channel, but upon firing up my task manager, I realized that my computer only has 12gb of ram. So I turned the machine off, tried the sticks one by one and i finally found the culprit: one of them when used alone would just not let the system post, and the memory status led would stay lit meaning that there is a problem. So i populated another dimm slot, and the system started. Headed into the BIOS, and strangely enough, the motherboard says that the dimm slot containing the faulty stick is populated, and gives me all the specs of the stick itself (reference, capacity, latency, timings and so on). Even CPU-Z sees it, and nothing appears to be wrong with it, the specs are the same as is twin brother i use with it. So I wonder, if there is a hardware issue, why would my pc still see it and be able to ectract all those data. If y'all have any suggestions or anything that could help, it'll be much appreciated. Thanks in advance guys !

Hi y'all, SO i bought that GPU a few months ago and I couldn't try it out at the time because I was in Ireland studying. When I finally got home and tried it, well, I had no display. Black screen, though the TV would pick a weird signal with a strange resolution along the line of 640*480 at 60hz. So the card is sending something to the monitor, but not much. The fan spins, the system looks like it's posting (no strange debug LED code). I tried a few things already, like flashing the GPU bios (which was inexistant at first as gpu-z found out) and now the latest bios is loaded and recognized in gpu-z. In device manager though, the gpu is said to be malfunctioning and as a code 43. I'm all out of idea guys, if anyone of you as any ideas of what i could try, hit me cause I can not send the card back and I'm really afraid that it was just DOA all along by now. Any advices are welcome. Cheers lads

You sir just made my day ! My blue and white build was tarnished buy this ugly ass red led on the ethernet port, and now thanks to you, it's all gone and everything looks as beautiful as ever, with the color scheme now respected ! Thanks again

Did this just now like three times, didn't solve the issue

Hi everyone, I'm doing a Xeon X5460 LGA 771 to 775 type of build on a Asus P5G41T M LX mobo. Did the cutting, did the stickering, and everything worked fine with a single stick of old ddr3. Now I bought a 2*4gigs kit from corsair XMS3 lineup, clocked at 1333MHz, and thought everything would work just fine. But here I am, waiting for something to happen as i only get black screen... I do know that it's possible to get 8 gigs of RAM on this mobo as there are tons of videos on youtube showing that, but i can't figure out how i can do it myself.. Really thought that this kit of DDR3 should do the trick as it's fairly old and is supposed to be supported by the mobo. Maybe I'm mistaken or maybe I'm doing something wrong, so please guys help me !! Thanks in advance

Well if his temps are wrong with an AIO then mine are complete BS too then.

Well can't tell for sure as I'm away from home atm, but would say it was somewhere in the 1.2V (yeah like every single Skylake I5 i guess). Will check when i'm back home. But tbh i'm good with winning the siliconne lottery for once, it's the very first time in a lotof cpu's !

Well so far so good without touching CVoltage !

Thanks for your reply ! But yeah your temps are freaking low but on a watercooler ! Wasn't expecting much of a bottom line air cooler for myself ! Or maybe Skylake doesn't heat up that much

Hi guys, So I got my new rig late last month with most importantly a MSI z170a Pro Gaming Carbon and an Intel I5 6600k processor. I was running short on my budget after bying all the core components and figured out I could cheap out a bit on the cpu cooler as long as I wasn't planning on doing any overclocking. So i went with a Cooler Master Hyper TX3i. But being a beat of a tech freak, I jumped in the bios literally the next day and started tweaking that nasty multiplier. Got it stable with a 44 multiplier, anything above this and I would get the smily face of death (am not gonna tweak the core voltage, I know a fair bit about hardware but this is a bit too much for me). And what a surprise i got after an hour of AIDA64 stress test: my temps where just above 50°C, and the CPU was at a tiny 30°C on iddle. So question is, are those normal temps ? They sure seem a bit low (so to say, I'm thrilled they are that low) and i don't know if it's my computer reading the numbers wrong or whatever. I'm fearly impressed by this little TX3 guy so far to say the least.
