Vega needs a power supply with a strong transient response, doesn't matter what the wattage is if it isn't very good. What model Rosewill PSU is it?

this one

A single vega 56 is already a huge boost. Again, what specific power supply are you going to use?

i have a rosewill 1000watt its kinda old but it gets the job done lol 

theres new  coins coming out all the time so if i can get into one while its 1 cent and it goes up to 50 cents or so id be happy, as long as it can pay for the electricity its using than its ok but  im mostly concerned about the gaming aspect of it

so im planning on upgrading my 1060 3gb this week i found someone selling vega 56s  for $120 usd, so i plan on buying 2 of them, so i can mine and game with em, so are they worth 120  or should i pass on them and try to find something else and 250 is really the top of my budget right now. plz help, and thank you for reading my post

and thats my gpu now in the pic, it hits 80c when playing borderlands on medium settings and i dont even get 60 fps 

@Epimetheus your saying all this stuff lets see it 

i do have a 1060 btw lol thats why i dont care about it not having graphics 

than what is a good site to use?

and what i seen here https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-9400F-vs-AMD-Ryzen-5-2600/4051vs3955 is why i got the 9400f and not a 2600

yeah i only have like 350 to spend right now thats why i went 9400f, andi got the motherboard on amazon for $77 the ram and a case and it was like 344 or something, this system is for some gaming and digital art, when tax return comes im prolly gonna build a whole new pc. i just need to upgrade my i5 7400 with 8 gigs of ram for right now. @Epimetheus @Stormseeker9 @5x5 when im drawing a 4k or 8k image it gets stuttery when i zoom in to clean up lines and such 

so im slowly upgrading my pc. and just bought the stuff below, i went to gigabytes website to look at the bios and it said i needed almost the newest update to use 9th gen. and i really dont want to buy a 8th gen cpu just to do a update. plz help

As long as your current CPU will work with that board you can try it. I doubt that board will fit in your case though. HP, Dell, etc. don't conform the ATX standard and use their own form factor instead. You could lay the motherboard on a cardboard box and test it. Is it worth it? Meh, if you're upgrading this year anyways I wouldn't.

oh no its not in the stock case its in a case my uncle gave me the case is  from like 2008 or something its a old case but my uatx mobo fits in there with alot of room to spare. like this case is back when the bigger the case the better. i had to buy a laptop desk just for my pc to sit on lol

Sounds like the motherboard is dead. I would suggest not using that Rosewill PSU again.

so should i get this mobo just to try it and see if thats it https://www.amazon.com/Biostar-Motherboard-Tb250-btc-Lga1151-Express/dp/B072LXX4NF/ref=sr_1_1?crid=35ARJYBI7T8PX&keywords=lga+1151+motherboard&qid=1552596070&s=gateway&sprefix=lga%2Caps%2C153&sr=8-1  

i im not trying to build this pc up. im gonna build a new pc later this year i just wanna make this one work

Did you break a warranty seal when you switched the PSUs? If not, I'd put the original back in there and RMA it. You should still be in warranty on a Kaby Lake desktop.

i switched the case it was in and been doing little upgrades here and there but like nothing major just adding fans and stuff and rgb so i can be a cool kid

check for leaked capacitors?

 

what would that look like?

Was it working fine with the old PSU? If so, I would ensure that your 24pin power cable to your motherboard is plugged in all the way (can be tough sometimes) and that your power switch cable didn't come loose.

 

To test the PSU look up how to start it with a paperclip. If its not one of those silent models where the fan only runs when it needs it the fan should kick on when you flip the switch.

ya i was using the psu for like 5 months or so  and i switched psu to the stop one to see if the psu was dead and still nothing no fans turn on no hdd spinning

This.

Could be a dead power supply, since its old and used.

i was just using it last night i was playing black ops 4 and than it just turned off out of no where 

So i have a hp pavilion 580-023 its a gaming desktop and im not getting any power i put a new power supply in and new power cord, switched the ram around, ive been messing around with it to see if i can figure out whats wrong with it and i cant find anything, the old psu in it was 300w but i changed it out with a old 1000w rosewil that my uncle gave me. i think the mobo might be dead but if anyone has any suggestions im more than willing to try

There are a TON of 27" 144Hz monitors under $400.  What ones are you looking at?

What makes you think you need 144Hz? Most of those games aren't that likely to run 144fps or higher constantly unless you have some beefy hardware to back it up.

 

i wasnt gonna list my entire game collection  and i have a a 1080 that i got off craigslist for like 350 bucks, ram that i also got on craigslist and a i7 7700koff craigslist lol #ballinonabuget and i wanna future proof  too so when i do upgrade to a i9 in like 3 or 4 years and get a better gpu and stuff i wont have to get a better monitor and the colors on my tv are so shit 

Hello so i have a 21.5 inch tv that is 30 and at least 10 years old that i am currently using as a monitor its 1080p but that id ok cause i have a 55in lg 4k smart tv where i watch all my movies and stuff, i just looking for a cheap 24-27 inch 144 hz monitor with good color, i play lots of games with good colors like ark, rust, destiny 2, black ops 4 and i also dabble in digital art. So if someone can help me find a good high refresh rate monitor for like under 400 bucks that would be great ive been looking for the past couple weeks and all the ones i have found are so expensive.

well right now i threw a z87m oc formula and a intel 1156 motherboard  i been switching inbetween i just wanna know that everthing is working before i buy a cpu @Arika S
