Thank you so much brother. Appreciate it.

So I'm all set then just another pair of RAM and a GPU? because I am switching to Resolve slowly. Premier Pro is crashing too much for me. Do you think I can continue with R5 3600? What if I just get another 2x 8 GB RAM then will I still need a 5900X? I am not able to quantify video editing performance with CPU upgrade. Need help in that now.

Thanks for responding. I am clear about the GPU now, RTX 3070 Ti it is then. I don't want to go for another Radeon. Do you think I can continue with R5 3600? What if I just get another 2x 8 GB RAM then will I still need a 5900X? I am not able to quantify video editing performance with CPU upgrade. Need help in that now.

Budget (including currency): ₹1.2L (INR) Country: India Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Coding, Photoshop, Premier Pro, DaVinci Resolve and AAA Games. Other details: Currently, I have a Ryzen 5 3600 paired with G.Skill 2x8GB 3600 CL19 RAM kit on ASUS TUF X570 Gaming Plus Motherboard paired with a potato Sapphire RX 460 2GB Graphics Card. FYI: My PSU is Strix 850 watt 80 Plus Gold. Now I am getting into professional work heavily like Coding and using Photoshop, Premier Pro (Switching to DaVinci Resolve slowly). I sometimes do gaming and have a 1440p 165Hz monitor; hence would like a GPU that can drive ~165 FPS. I am thinking that I can go on either one of the following 3 routes - A) Should I just invest into a RTX 4080? This is what I planned initially. That would cost me around ₹1,13,000 | I do not know how much can an old RX 460 get me in second hand market, but for me it is causing lots of crashes everyday | Also if this route is what you suggest then would RTX 4080 bottleneck be bottlenecked by my Ryzen 3600 at 1440p? B) Should I rather invest into a R7 5800X3D ₹33,000 + Corsair 2x16GB 3600 CL18 RAM kit ₹10,900 + TUF RTX 3070 Ti ₹51,000 | Apart from these 3 upgrades I will sell my current CPU, RAM kit and GPU (if Rx 460 is sellable lol) to get some money back | Also Any bottlenecks here? and is it good for at-least 120+ or close to 165 fps gaming at 1440p? Main priority is work though. C) Just get that RTX 3070 Ti for now, save money today and later in the future get full platform upgrade. Don't invest more in a dead platform. Please suggest which option should I pick? A or B or C I will repeat Main priority is work though. I don't think I can increase budget for a full platform upgrade right now. but since 5800X3D is still new, it should last me 4-5 years. But you guys tell, I am confused already. What's gonna be a better decision? A or B or C

Motherboard was in warranty. So, I went for the RMA. Turns out my Corsair VS450 (4 years old) had killed my motherboard somehow. I plugged it in a GIGABYTE B75MD3H and that motherboard died too. Gigabyte SC said they will have to replace VRMs on that. So conclusion, ASUS RMA-ed the TUF X570 and I bought a ASUS ROG Strix 850w 80 plus Gold PSU along with a surge protector for peace of mind. RIP GIGABYTE B75MD3H

Thank you for responding so early. and No, Its been 1 month since last BIOS update. 4021 came in August. It has been working just fine and one day it just didn't turn ON. I kept pressing the power button but nothing happened. It is still in warranty though, only 2 years old. As you suspect that it has something to do with BIOS and I have already tried downgrading to previous 2 versions with no success, Is there anything else that I can try here before going to the ASUS SC for RMA?

My motherboard doesn't power ON without clearing CMOS + Shorting 4th-5th pin of PSU. MY PC Specs: AMD Ryzen R5 3600 CPU ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus Motherboard G.Skill Sniper X DDR4-3600 8GB x 2 sticks (F4-3600C19D-16GSXWB) Sapphire AMD RX 460 2GDDR5 Graphics Card Power Supply Tried - Corsair CV650 80 Plus Silver (This is brand new) Corsair VS450 80 Plus White (This is the one I am using from last 4 years) I have tried downgrading BIOS from 4021 to 4005 to 4002 but no success . Also tried putting in new CMOS Battery and as you can guess another power supply too. The behaviour still remains. It would be better to show you than explaining - 5 minute video below Please review and advise. Many Thanks.

Thanks a lot again Sire, I was so stressed about this. Now I can go ahead with the purchase. Thanks again. ?

Hi, Thankyou for such an early response. Please clarify one more doubt. This "single rank" stick is neither listed in the motherboard compatibility list nor on G.Skill official website. Can I still go ahead with two of these sticks for Msi B450 Tomahawk? Thankyou

Hi All, I am planning a build with following parts Msi B450 Tomahawk AMD Ryzen 5 3600 My concern is the RAM Every online retailer in India including Amazon, Vedant Computers, MD Computers, PrimeABGB, etc. has this RAM listed- G.Skill RipJaws VF4-3200C16S-8GVKB But this model doesn't even exist on G.Skill Website and also this isn't listed in the motherboard memory compatibility list of B450 Tomahawk. Please help will this work or not? Same case is with 2 other RAM sticks from ADATA and Corsair their model number also don't exist on their website. I need total 16 gigs 3200 MHz, I can't go for a dual channel kit coz that's much expensive to buy as compared to 2 such (above mentioned) sticks. I think the S here stands for Single Channel because those kits mention D. and that thing exists even on the mobo ram compatibility list. Thankyou
