  1. Yeah followed good old Linus tutorial from years ago but sadly I think dead dead as still no output
  2. Thanks kind of forgot about oven trick lmao giving it a go now we'll see if it fixes it
  3. Hi guys, Was wondering if there's anything further I can try to get an MSI GTX 770 to display. I bought one knowing it was advertised as non working but was only $10 so I thought to give it a shot. GPU spins but nothing is displayed, I've re sited many times to make sure but nothing, I installed drivers for it but still no change. It's not the mobo as my RTX 2060 works fine is there anything I could try potentially to try to get it run? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  4. decent budget build but like boggy said it shouldn't cost anywhere near $1700
  5. I ended up going with the nzxt water-cooling solution where you but a bracket and then attach the aio to it temps went from 87 Mac under load to 50 and costed around £90 definitely worth it
  6. you should be able to just unplug the power led plug on your motherboards front io connection
  7. Even without overclocking going with a cheap motherboard will limit yourself in terms of upgrade path so I would suggest your friend saves up and buys something along the lines of a z390 it's really noth worth the time buying a h310 m motherboard so just save up a bit longer. Also over a 9500 the 9600kf only gives you a 5 fps boost on average so without sounding too rude it wasn't a really good choice but it's your friends decision at the end of the day
  8. i personally have a corsair rm650x 80+ gold fully modular and its a great power supply, it will be powerful enough to power your rig and in general is a very reliable PSU,
  9. Also it will be much better value to return the CPU and wait for 4th gen ryzen and b550 motherboard or if he really wants it now and can't wait get ryzen 5 3600 on a b450
  10. If he's not interested in overclocking then why has he bought a k processor? Not trying to be rude but you spent extra money to get an overclocking processor and then you want to get a no overclocking motherboard as he does t want to overclock. If able to I would return the CPU and save by getting a non k processor and put that money to another part of the build
  11. Do you have your PC connected to a power strip? rarely but sometimes if the power strip is of lower quality it can cause instabilities, I would try using a mains socket it might not do anything but worth a try as one of my friends had a similar issue
  12. what CPU did he exactly get? if its a K (overclockable variant) then i would recommend something along the lines of a Z390 Motherboard to take full advantage of the features.
  13. Could be a couple things, I would first try to put in a spare gpu if you have one to see if that works if it does work then it could be something to do with the software or the hardware on the Intel graphics, download the latest drives for the chipset and see if that fixes it if not then it's a hardware fault on the cou itself. If plugging in a gpu doesn't work then I would attempt a fresh install of windows as again it could be driver related. Hope I helped a little bit
  14. Just my input if possible I suggest building a really small form factor PC that will fit in a backpack as I've personally had gaming laptops over 1k and they all broke after a year of regular college use. Plus if you get a laptop you are limiting your options, if a cpu fails the whole thing gets thrown away, same thing with gpu rather than just replacing the failed part you will have to replace the whole laptop and so for that reason alone I don't recommend gaming laptops
